Today is my Birthday. Another year older and I hope another year wiser, lol.
One of my dear Catolic sisters sent me an computer birthday card. She knows I love my Celtic heritiage and included one of my all time favorate quotes.
Irish Blessing
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.
I have always loved that blessing.
I have received some nice birthday greetings this year from good friends and family. This year it is going to be a quiet birthday. The best gift I received was my dog. Benji has been a real blessing to me. I love dogs and all animals and it makes me happy having a dog in my life again.
Today I also think of those birthday buddies who had their birthday within the same week and year as me. One buddy I knew in highschool was on the same day and he was 30 minutes older. Another one is dead now.
Well off to pick up my birthday cake. I got a lemon cake this year. I am going to make fish for dinner.
Thank you to all the people who wished me a very Happy Birthday!! I love you too.
