Here are a few Irish Blessings for my friends and fellow Active Rainers.  May today be safe and prosperous for you.  May you enjoy the laughter and friendship of friends and family today.

 May your blessing outnumber the shamrocks that grow, and

may trouble avoid you wherever you go.

  May you always have walls for the winds,
a roof for the rain, tea beside the fire,
laughter to cheer you, those you love near you,
and all your heart might desire.

 These things, I warmly wish for you-
Someone to love, some work to do,
A bit of o' sun, a bit o' cheer.
And a guardian angel always near.

 May you have love that never ends,
lots of money, and lots of friends.
Health be yours, whatever you do,
and may God send many blessings to you!

Top of the morning to you, and the rest of the day to yourself!"

May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields and,
Until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

May you have a great St. Patricks Day.  There are lots of  great Irish bars and pubs throughout the Metro Detroit Area for great food and music today.
