THE BLESSING GIVEN BY THE FATHER OF THE BRIDE (me) |
Apache Wedding Blessing
Now you will feel no rain, for each of you
will be shelter for the other. Now you will feel no cold, for each of you
will be warmth to the other. Now there will be no loneliness, for each of
you will be companion to the other. Now you are two persons, but there is
only one life before you. May beauty surround you both in the journey
ahead and through all the years, may happiness be your companion and your days
together be good and long upon the earth.
Treat yourselves and each other with respect, and remind yourselves
often of what brought you together. Give the highest priority to the tenderness,
gentleness and kindness that your connection deserves. When frustration,
difficult and fear assail your relationship – as they threaten all
relationships at one time or another – remember to focus on what is right
between you, not only the part which seems wrong. In this way, you can ride out
the storms when clouds hide the face of the sun in your lives – remembering
that even if you lose sight of it for a moment, the sun is still there. And if
each of you takes responsibility for the quality of your life together, it will
be marked by abundance and delight.
