We had this read graveside for my granddad in 2004, ending with "and may you have been in heaven half an hour before the devil knew you were dead" ❤ this is the first time I've read this in 20 years.

And may you be in Heavan half an hour before the divil knows you're gone. Mammy

I wrote this blessing and placed it in Dad's pocket at his funeral. It gave me comfort.

God is everywhere and with everyone always. His Angel's are always guarding us wherever we are and go. Blessed be the Holy Name of Jesus, whose promise is peace, a sound mind, and protection. May our Lord protect you and yours always.

Hi to my niece who just moved to Galway, 🇮🇪! Miss you, love...

Galway, a harbour city on Ireland’s west coast, sits where the River Corrib meets the Atlantic Ocean. The city’s hub is 18th-century Eyre Square, a popular meeting spot surrounded by shops and traditional pubs that often offer live Irish folk music. Nearby, stone-clad cafes, boutiques and art galleries line the winding lanes of the Latin Quarter, which retains portions of the medieval city walls.

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 God be with you and bless you:
May you see your children's children.
May you be poor in misfortune,
Rich in blessings.
May you know nothing but happiness
From this day forward.
May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the warm rays of sun fall upon your home
And may the hand of a friend always be near.
May green be the grass you walk on,
May blue be the skies above you,
May pure be the joys that surround you,
May true be the hearts that love you.

A good Irish man knows, struggle is a day carried by a simple act to keep them going

not as bad as other peoples, but this year, my teacher left, that some of our class had in year 2 and this year. (including me) We all cried because our teacher is great and super fun, shes the best teacher and now shes moving 2 hours away. We will all miss her, but she will facetime our class and stuff, so yeah.

Thank you so much for sharing this fantastic blessing. We gave it to our son who's confirmation name is Patrick. Along with Saint Patrick on this special St Patrick's Day, God bless everyone from Patrick senior
