“May you awaken to the mystery of being here and enter the quiet immensity of your own presence.
May you have joy and peace in the temple of your senses.
May you receive great encouragement when new frontiers beckon.
May you respond to the call of your gift and find the courage to follow its path.
May the flame of anger free you from falsity.
May warmth of heart keep your presence aflame and may anxiety never linger about you.
May your outer dignity mirror an inner dignity of soul.
May you take time to celebrate the quiet miracles that seek no attention.
May you be consoled in the secret symmetry of your soul.
May you experience each day as a sacred gift woven around the heart of wonder.”
~ John O’Donohue
I have a book of blessings by O’Donohue–they’re wonderful! This one is especially nice, and the accompanying photo is just perfect….
So true. This is one of my favorites. Thanks.
I don’t think anyone can read this and not feel blessed with the most beautiful benediction
I agree Mimi. It is an affirmation that I will use daily
An extraordinary man who we lost far too soon in life.
So true LuAnn. Take care. Bill
