An Irish Blessing for Your Home this Thanksgiving Weekend

I don't know who wrote this, but it is a very nice sentiment.

God bless the corners of this house
And be the lintel blessed.
Bless the hearth, the table too
And bless each place of rest.
Bless each door that opens wide
To stranger, kith and kin;
Bless each shining window-pane
That lets the sunshine in.
Bless the roof-tree up above
Bless every solid wall.
The peace of Man, the peace of love,
The peace of God on all.

Animals are wise. The ancient Celts paid attention to their animals. Queen Boudicca released a hare from the folds of her gown to divine her victory against the Romans. Do you have special pets that are wise? What kinds of wisdom do they show? Some inspired rabbits that are wise in their joy featuring Bunny Erwin.

In Celtic legend, the animal, old man or old hag that you meet along the road may be god or a prince in disguise. Who would you like to meet on your Celtic fantasy journey?
In stories full of myth and wonder, animals can talk. They give advice and they give warnings. What would this mart (cow) say to you if she could speak?
