A book that "compiles more than 200 poignant and warmly humorous blessings" to still your mind and lighten your heart (Publishers Weekly).
Gale Pryor offers found blessings, traditional blessings, and her own original blessings, which are at times funny, at times thought provoking, but always meaningful. Included are "Blessings for Home," "Blessings for Friends & Neighbors Wherever They Are," "Blessings for Our Daily Bread," "Blessings for Babies and Children," "Blessings for Partnership," and "Blessings for Small Pleasures."
Pryor gathers blessings from many cultures that aid the search for peace in the midst of chaos. Examples include:May your home have more books than shelves, more food than plates, and more guests than chairs. Bless the partner who sorts and cleans the spice cabinet. May every small child watch an ant and let it live.
Sometimes looking to traditional prayers for comfort and guidance can only take you so far. You need "prayers drawn up from the little things more than prayers drawn down from the heavens." The kinds of blessings included in this book are those that have been swept up from daily life, those that open your eyes to the small graces in all of our homes and families, the moment-by-moment blessings.
