"May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields and,
Until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand."

I posted this quote to one of my oldest friends Facebook page.

It was a very specific wish, for a very special person.

Reflect on this Irish blessing, I look towards a gray Seattle sky and I can see this blessing become a road map for us all.

The road rises up to meet us, as we face challenges we are gently held and guided. The wind of our community is always at our backs. We have friends and family that are always looking out for us. Our spirit is the sun shine from within, this must be true.

The rain of our efforts is a blessing and the we meet God in everyone person we see (though sometimes it is buried)
