to bless self surrounding






May self-surrounding become a means
of sharing the best of life with those
near and dear to heart. May you place
in the "rooms of your life" appropriate graces
for arrivals and departures.

May your "kitchen of strength" be filled
with tools for healthy eating, fellowship
around table, and comforts of friendly talk.

May your "office of mind" meld
bustle and peace. May you be drawn
deeper into the expression of life’s
work. May this satisfy the heart and
echo the words "well done devoted one".

May the "den of your heart" afford
joy of solitude and love of sharing.

May the "altar room of spirit" express
the truth that inner sacrifice has an open reward.

May each room of your life add
comforting space that can challenge and nurture,
heal and mold, mystify and enlighten.
May this ingathering of people,
things, ideas become a "self-surrounding"
that overshadows mere personal growth,
yielding a homecoming of unity within.
