A Blessing for Married couples

So…with all the troubles and issues going on in Life1, I’d like to post a beautiful blessing to all of us “marrieds”. Its a translation of the Apache wedding prayer/blessing but no matter where it came from, it truly is beautiful and strikes at the heart of the true meaning of Marriage:

Now you will feel no rain,
for eachof you will be shelter to the other.
Now you will feel no cold,
for each of you will be warmth to the other.
Now there is no lonliness for you,
for each of you will be companion to the other.
Now you are two persons,
but there is one life before you.
Go now to your dwelling place,
to enter into the days of your togetherness.
And may your days be good and long upon this earth.

No wonder their asses got handed to them against the settlers. They are a bunch of women. All of them!

Political correctness means nothing to you does it :nahi:

And Mama, that’s a lovely prayer.

Re: A Blessing for Married couples

Political correctness is only a term white people came up with so they don't look racist.

As a brown guy why do I care? :D

**Now there is no more ice cream in fridge **
Because your wife ate it all :barbie:

come on people . . . add more to it . :stuck_out_tongue:

How could I forget, brown guys are known for their obnoxiousness, not their PC’ness - thanks for reminding me :rolleyes:

No problemo. Its my job to keep everything fresh and real and any other 90's slang phrase that fits in here.

I would normally roll my eyes but this is really sweet. Native American tribes were really respectful towards their female members and wives, but today is a different story.

"We are a broken people"

Re: A Blessing for Married couples

well its a nice poem .. and after reading first few .. it reminds of the Qur'anic Verse .. ''hunna libaasullakum wa antum libaasullahun'' they are a cloth for you and you are for them....and what do clothes do for you ..''shelter'' ..''warmth'' .. and what are you to each other .. ''companionship'' ..

but i bet this poem was stolen from the muslims :p
