A Blessing For Those Left Behind

Baruch atah Adonai

Brucha at Shechina

Blessed One-ness

Bringing connection when there is separation,

Remembering joy even when we cannot.

One-ness,

We are blessed to be part of this holy wholeness

Even if we understand so little of it.

We are blessed to have received so much love,

Even when it is lost.

And we pray for the strength to perceive the blessings

Even when it hurts so much.

Amen.
