One of America's most durable traditions is pausing before the evening meal to acknowledge the things that give our lives meaning.

Illustrations.

Editorial Reviews

Library Journal
In today's chaotic world, the common experience of sharing the evening meal can restore a sense of community and humanity to society. More important, the blessing of the meal fosters in us a sense of gratitude for the gifts we have been given. This collection of 365 "blessings"-ranging from the words of Augustine and Buddhist monk Thich Nhat Hanh to the Beatles' now famous "In the end the love you take/ is equal to the love you make"-celebrates the connections between grace and gratitude. To aid readers in selecting a grace appropriate to the occasion, there is a topical index as well as divisions marked by seasons of the year. The book will have wide appeal because it traverses all spiritual traditions. For general collections.
From Barnes & Noble
365 traditional & new blessings from a variety of spiritual disciplines & secular perspectives. Includes Bible passages & words by Mother Teresa, William Blake, Thich Nhat Hanh, & others.

    Good variety of blessings

    The native American blessings are some of my favorite ones in this book. I was a bit disappointed that there is only one Beatles "blessing" with that listed on the cover, but this is a great source for non-traditional and thought provoking blessings. There is also a good index by the author or source of the blessing in the back of the book.
