ST. PATRICK'S DAY

This morning's sunrise was beyond breathtaking.  It's funny how the most brilliant sunrise lasts so short a time.  Can't actually remember seeing one as bright as this.  Maybe it's a heavenly St. Patrick's Day blessing...... "May the sun shine warm upon your face!"  

The boyfriend is down working in the shop.  He's an early bird, while I am the slug sitting sipping a cuppa.  

Just think of all the partying today.....drinking green beer, eating corn beef and cabbage, Irish stew and swigs of Bailey's Irish Creme. 

Beyond the traditional celebrations, there is an empty space in the day to fill with spiritual blessings that the Irish are known for.  

May Our Creator give you......
For every storm, a rainbow,
For every tear, a smile,
For every care, a promise,
And a blessing in each trial.
For every problem life sends,
A faithful friend to share,
For every sigh, a sweet song,
And an answer for each prayer.
