Beannacht (Blessing) for Our Death
Tracey Schmidt's poetic reading of a Blessing for Our Death reminds us of the
complexities of life - how we can be gatekeepers and entrance points, light
filled and vulnerable, lonely and loved, all at the same time. She praises life
and exhorts us to do the same, to "sing as if tomorrow will not come because one
day it will not." This singing of life's praises enables us to live fully, "as
if home were everywhere and you no longer a guest but a loved and welcome
member."
