A Franciscan Benediction
May God bless you with discomfort at easy answers, half truths, and superficial relationships, so that you may live deep within your heart.
May God bless you with anger at injustice, oppression, and the exploitation of people, so that you may work for justice, freedom, and peace.
May God bless you with tears to shed for those who suffer from pain, rejection, and starvation, so that you may reach out your hand to comfort them and to turn their pain into joy.
And may God bless you with enough foolishness to believe that you can make a difference in this world, so that you can do what others claim cannot be done…
Amen.
Have you mastered the art of dancing in the midst of difficulty?
The next step towards the fulfillment of your dream may be your riskiest one yet. Will you take it? Or by not taking it will you be forced to continue to ask yourself the question, “What if?”
What courageous action will you take today in order to “expand your life?”
As you pursue your dreams there is no doubt that along the way you will need to develop personally. What is your plan for personal development?
Are you living or existing?
The difference may be found in pursuing the dreams are your destiny!
Great advice for one who desires to see their dreams come true.
