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 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, starvation, and war
so that you may reach out your hand to
comfort them and turn their pain to joy
And may God bless you with enough foolishness
to believe that you can make a difference in the world,
so that you can do what others claim
cannot be done.
Amen.
