Sometimes kind words can brighten up the whole day. A blessing, for example, is such a wonderful daily or even life companion.
Irish blessings have been used for centuries - as advice and wishes for travelers, mourners and all people who should lead a content, safe and happy life.
Where exactly the blessings come from and who originally gave them along the way is unknown today. Like proverbs and sayings, they have been passed down through time, mainly orally. Therefore, you won't find an originator below the sayings.
Also, the wishes do not necessarily come from Ireland, however, they all seem to originate from the Nordic Gaelic area.
Often the blessings have a religious connotation, but mostly they are based on everyday occurrences and wish strength for the day or upcoming tasks or luck on the road ahead. Irish blessings can thus give strength and confidence.
We would like to share this strength with you as well. In this Topic we have a selection of wishes for you to accompany you over the next few days, so that you'll always start the day with a light heart.
