Let Ruth Negga demonstrate the proper way to make an Irish coffee on #StPatricksDay pic.twitter.com/UmEn5S7AcW— VANITY FAIR (@VanityFair) March 17, 2017
Like the Irish prayer, "May the road rise to meet you..", here is a prayer just as beautiful, just as sincere. It comes from the Acoma Pueblo, verse written by Simon Ortiz:
I add my breath to your breath
That our days may be long upon the earth
That our days of our people may be long
That we may be as one person
That we may finish our road together
May our Mother bless you with life
May our life path be fulfilled.
We may not be Irish, but we are extraordinarily lucky to have Simon writing such beautiful poetry for us.
Happy St. Patrick's Day.
