It hasn't gone anywhere. People just have to do it. I'm usually the only one who blesses myself when I go out to eat. Whether anyone does or not.

Gloria, that just shows how courageous YOU are compared to most. Even I do not do so in "public"-- only in church-- the Lutheran one!. . . and virtually no one else does. Still, that does not take near the courage as your practice. Inspiring.

You can still pray and thank God for His provision and blessings, personally.

My husband never eats without a silent blessing. I am not so inclined to be ritual about it. I don't bless myself, just the food and gratitude.
