A Prayer for the Coming Week

May this week contain a full measure of mental calmness to go with the long to do list. May the lilacs keep blooming and scenting the air with loveliness. May my presentations be inspired enough to be useful to those who hear them. May my children have a week with no new emotional crises. May my house be cleaner and more orderly at the end of the week than the beginning. May I help someone else instead of always being tangled in my own head. May I pay attention to the blue sky, to the air I breathe, and the goodness of my life.
