Blessing For A Marriage
May your
marriage bring you all the
exquisite excitements a marriage should bring,
and may life grant you also patience, tolerance,
and understanding.
May you always need one another - not so much
to fill your emptiness as to help you know your
fullness.
A mountain needs a valley to be complete;
the valley does not make the mountain less but more;
and the valley is more a valley
because it has a mountain towering over it.
So let it be with you and you.
May you need one another, but not out of weakness.
May you want one another, but not out of lack.
May you entice one another, but not compel one
another.
May you succeed in all important ways with one
another,
and not fail in the little graces.
May you look for things to praise, often say,
"I love you!" and take no notice of small faults.
If you have quarrels that push you apart,
may both of you hope to have good sense
enough to take the first step back.
May you enter into the mystery which is the
awareness
of one another's presence - no more physical than
spiritual,
warm and near when you are side by side, and warm
and near
when you are in separate rooms or even distant
cities.
May you have happiness, and may you find it making
one
another happy.
May you have love, and may you find it loving one
another!
