Like the trees of the forest,
may you find nourishment
in rain as well as sunshine;
bend with the winds of misfortune
without breaking;
give of yourself to others
to provide shade from the blistering heat;
grow old gracefully and not
become rigid or unbending;
and above all
may you keep reaching ever upwards
towards heaven and to God.
