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 for the other.
Now there is no more loneliness.
Now you are two persons,
but there is only one life before you
May your days together be good & long
upon the earth.
O' GREAT SPIRIT
help me always
to speak the truth quietly
to listen with an open mind
when others speak.
and to remember the peace
that may be found in silence.
(Cherokee Prayer)
May the stars carry your sadness away May the flowers fill your heart with beauty
May hope forever wipe away your tears. And, above all, may silence make you strong. ( Chief Dan George)
