Friday Frills

A Wish for All Seasons...




I wish you the courage to be warm when the world would prefer that you be cool.
I wish you success sufficient to your needs;
I wish you failure to temper that success.
I wish you joy in all your days; 
I wish you sadness so that you may better measure that joy.
I wish you gladness to overbalance grief.

I wish you humor and a twinkle in the eye.
I wish you glory and the strength to bear its burdens.
I wish you sunshine on your path and storms to season your journey.

I wish you peace in the world in which you live,
And in the smallest corner of the heart where truth is kept.
I wish you faith to help define your living and your life.
More I cannot wish you, except perhaps love, 
To make all the rest worthwhile.

I love how balanced and tempered this is... I guess both "good" and "bad" things are necessary to live a full live

Happy Friday - hope you have a lovely weekend!

And in reply to your comment, Spirit Week is the week at school before Homecoming where the whole school dresses up to different themes for each day. For example, today was Outer Space Day, so we had a lot of people dressing up as aliens, stars, and planets. Haha, its always so much fun! :)

LOVE does make everything worthwhile.
Beautiful and inspiring as always, and the furry envelopes are impossibly cuter.
