Blessed Be The < !signature-->Blessed be the unborn child for two have many dreams for the future. Blessed be the newborn’s first kiss although not remembered one out of pure love. Blessed be the toddler who sees the world with eyes wild open and yet has no fear. Blessed be the child’s first day of school for this is the start of wisdom’s road. Blessed be the adolescence for hopefully he will come to understand meekness. Blessed be the young adult that they take life in slowly for what they do shall be with always. Blessed be the twenty’s life is now at your front door making you decide which way you must choose. Blessed be the thirty’s hopefully with child and clear insight on the road you wish to travel. Blessed be the forty’s for this is where they say you start your decent, but I say this is when things get fun. Blessed be the fifty’s grandchildren and lots of friends things start coming full circle in your minds eye. Blessed be the sixty’s a time for family fun and good health, and to decide the future. Blessed be the seventy’s your not quiet as spry but dare someone challenge you to a game of cards, and oh how you love your wife. Blessed be the eighty’s wisdom and insight have become needed for this is where you might need the family to truly care. Blessed be your remaining years silver hair, rocking chairs, still madly in love found life to be rewarding. Blessed be the passing of two hand in hand, they lived a wonderful life one that you could only hope for and they lived it well. Blessed be the memories the family now shares, of two so in love and parents that cared. Blessed be the human for he was given choice to choose what paths to take, may he be willing to use the insight and wisdom that he learns along the way and be blessed for all eternity.
