A Simple Thank You Message

Here is a simple thank you message I wrote, originally as a food prayer then generalised - feel free to add or use what is appropriate.

Thank you to all the people who stressed, strived and suffered so we may have this here today.

Thank you to all those who had to spend time away from the people and things they love for us to have this here, where it may have been better elsewhere.

Thank you for those who lived, died or suffered under incredible hardship in the past to bring this to us, here and now.

Thank you to all the people who pressed on and endured when they thought they could bear no more so we may be here today in the name of wholesomeness and peace.

We hope your suffering has no need to continue and refuse to let it go on in silence and ignorance.

Let any merit that comes from what follows go towards ending the torment of those that are tormented and come, in time, to bring peace to all - if not happiness!
