Monday 18July2022, @start of day

I yield to God today with a blessing passed on to me by Wok Harrison, from poet John O’Donohue:




May [I] know 

  • the wisdom of deep listening, 

  • the healing of wholesome words, 

  • the encouragement of the appreciative gaze, 

  • the decorum of held dignity, 

  • The springtime edge of the bleak question. 

May [I] have a mind 

  • that loves frontiers so that [I] can evoke the bright fields that lie beyond the view of the regular eye. 

May [I] have good friends 

  • to mirror [my] blind spots. 

May leadership be for [me] 

  • a true adventure of growth.*



[First Draft recording of one attempt to put it to song, in a noisy hall]
