New (for me) Blessing



I yield to creative love today with this blessing. You may see other opportunities for goodness & growth in it, for me too. Here's the start of a blessing for Paul (de) Walker.



May [I] know today 

  • the bright possibilities of unconditional positive regard, 

  • The beauty of disclosure & trust tailored in strength, colour, texture, genre, to others' current capacity for trusting & being trustworthy,

  • the tender gracious growth to maturity that allows all others, even  mentors, to be immature, thus still growing,

  • the wonder of allowing others to participate, to question and comment; inappropriately, while they learn to work well with creative love,

  • the joy of creating immature good, and allowing others to join in and develop it,

  • the blessedness of blessing others,

  • the steadfastness of continuing in these (above), even when these ovatures are rejected - until creative love says "enough-for-now."

May [I] have a mind 

  • that relishes the chance to be with those who see things differently, and,

  • that looks for the images and likenesses of creative love and its worksites  strewn throughout the world.

May I have eyes

  • that appreciate the good around me.

May I have a tongue

  • that appropriately recognises the source of, and choices for, good around me,

  • that quickly asks for clarification rather than quickly making judgement.



In the light of the beautiful blessing passed on to me by Wok Harrison from John O'Donohue. For my present growth towards maturity, this adds to that.
