The 100th Blessing

Gratefulness.org. invites you to participate in its 99 Blessings Contest: What is the 100th blessing? (February 6 through March 20, 2013) The contest is inspired by the book 99 Blessings, authored by Bro. David Steindl-Rast.

"Blessing is the spiritual bloodstream that flows through the universe," writes Bro David. "When we bless something, we return what we received to its source. That is like the blood coming from the heart and going back to the heart. That blood keeps on flowing. If we tune in to the bloodstream of blessing, the world comes alive."

Here are the first and second blessings in the book 99 Blessings:
