May the Road Rise to Meet You
I haven't updated in quite some time, so I thought I might ease back into my weekly updates by sharing this traditional Irish blessing. Many folks have heard this more than once, but Will reminded me of it the other day in conversation, so I thought it would be nice to finally write it down. Enjoy!
"May the road rise up to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rain fall soft upon your fields,
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand."
~Traditional Irish Blessing
