Wedding Day



Saturday 14th March was the day when May Oakley’s young cousin was married. He asked her to read a Native American Blessing at the ceremony. May was very happy to agree.

Here I am , enjoying the English Spring sunshine for a few minutes before going to prepare for the wedding.
The blessing is from a Native American ceremony

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

    The blessing is wonderful, as well.
