I know I have posted about this book before — Anam Cara — A book of Celtic Wisdom — by John O’Donohue.  A little while ago Ient my copy of this to someone at work. And while I was poking around Amazon the other day, I went and ordered myself another copy. I got a copy for 99cents plus shipping…who can beat that??? Anyway, when I got home from work today, my copy had arrived. It being St Paddies day and all, I thought maybe I should spend a few minutes with it!

A Blessing of Solitude<\/strong><\/p>\n

May you recognise in your life the presence, power, and light of your soul.<\/em><\/p>\n

May you realize that you are never alone, that your soul in its brightness and belonging, connects you intimately with the rythm of the universe.<\/em><\/p>\n

May you have respect for your own individuality, and difference.<\/em><\/p>\n

May you realize that the shape of your soul is unique, that you have a special destiny here, that behind the facade of your life there is something beautiful, good, and eternal happening.<\/em><\/p>\n

May you learn to see yourself with the same delight , pride, and expectation with which God sees you in every moment. <\/em><\/p>\n

Light and Love<\/p>\n
