May God bless you with discomfort.
Discomfort at easy answers, half-truths and superficial relationships,
so that you may live deep within your heart.
May god bless you with anger.
Anger at injustice, oppression and exploitation of people,
so that you may work for justice, freedom and peace.
May god bless you with tears.
Tears to shed for those who suffer from pain, rejection, starvation and war,
so that you may reach out your hand to comfort them and turn their pain into joy.
May God bless you with foolishness.
Enough foolishness to believe that you can make a difference in this world,
so that you can do what others claim cannot be done.
Amen
