Bless Everyone and Everything That Represents What You Want to Create!
To bless something or someone means to give recognition or emphasis to
a positive quality, characteristic or condition, with the intention
that what you recognize or emphasize will increase, continue or come into
being. As you know, blessing may be done with imagery or touch. Perhaps
the most common and easy way to do it is with words.

ADMIRATION ~ this is the offering of compliments or praise to something
good that you notice, like, "What a beautiful sunset; I like that
dress; you're so much fun."

AFFIRMATION ~ this is a specific statement of blessing for increase or
endurance, like, "I bless the beauty of this tree; blessed be the
health of your body; I am grateful to share small acts of kindness today."

APPRECIATION ~ this is an _expression of gratitude that something good
exists or has happened, like, "Thank you, Great Spirit for hearing me;
give thanks to the rain for nourishing the land."

ANTICIPATION ~ this is blessing for the future, like, "We're going to
have a great picnic; I bless your increased crop and income; Thank you
for introducing my perfect mate; I wish you a happy journey; May the
wind be always at your back." In order to gain the most benefit from
blessing, you will have to give up or cut way down on the thing that negates
it: CURSING. This doesn't mean swearing or saying bad words. It refers
to the opposite of blessing, namely criticizing instead of admiring;
doubting instead of affirming; blaming instead of appreciating and
worrying instead of anticipating with trust." Whenever any of these negative
things are done they cancel out some of the effects of your blessing.
So the more you curse the harder it will be and the longer it will take
to get the good from blessing. On the other hand, the more you bless
the less harm any cursing will do.

Examples for blessing various common needs, desires or choices:

HEALTH ~ Bless healthy people, animals and even plants; everything that
is well constructed; everything that expresses abundant energy.

HAPPINESS ~ Bless all that is good, or the good in all people and all
things; all the signs of happiness that you see, hear or feel in people
