    Im not Irish and I have two Irish blessing magnets on my refrigerator. My favorite is: May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind always be at your back.May the sun shine warm upon your face, and rains fall soft upon your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

    May you always have walls for the winds, a roof for the rain, tea beside the fire, laughter to cheer you, those you love near you, and all your heart might desire.

    I am not Irish but I have an Irish blessing; my son is part Irish and was born on St. Patrick's day! That's the greatest blessing I have!

    I wanted to say something from the Boondock Saints, but I thought not. I like this one..."If God sends you down a stony path, may he give you strong shoes." I think we can relate, lol. Happy St. Patty's Day everyone.

    I don't know if it qualifies, but I have a small sign in my kitchen that says "Irish Diplomacy, the ability to tell someone to go to hell so that he will look forward to the trip"
