May the Ineffable Mystery of Life fill us both
with good health, strength of body and character,
happiness, peace, and length of days.
May my child grow to discover her/his unique place in the world,
and may s/he find the courage to take it.
May her/his heart come to love the world and
may her/his labors be for the healing of all creation.
May s/he overflow with wisdom, and walk the path of righteousness, truth, humility, and understanding.
May s/he honor both self and other, and bring blessing upon all s/he meets. Amen.
