benediction

Go in peace. Live simply, gently, at home in yourselves.
Act justly.
Speak justly.
Remember the depth of your own compassion.
Forget not your power in the days of your powerlessness.
Do not desire to be wealthier than your peers and stint not your hand of charity.
Practice forbearance.
Speak the truth, or speak not.
Take care of yourselves as bodies, for you are a good gift.
Crave peace for all people in the world beginning with yourselves, and go as you go with the dream of that peace alive in your heart.

-the Rev. Dr. Mark Belletini,
written for the South Hayward Parish, CA.
