Any blessing we receive
May it pass on from us to you.
Every blessing should conceive
A future blessing if it’s true.
So with passing may we leave
You hope to manifest what’s new.
Forgive what we did not get right.
Arise. Be blessed with holy light.

This is wonderful Frank. A paying it forward theme opens up the direction of Blessings in all ways.

Yup, pay it forward, encourage the blossoming, the continuum, & be kind to first thy self, as well as love, so that you have the tender fortitude to promulgate both.

Sharing magnifies them and it is hard not to share them. It’s as difficult as cheerfulness staying with the cheerful person. Forgiveness is more difficult. Thank you, Stacy!
