Anam Cara: A Book of Celtic Wisdom by John O'Donohue

5.0

This book is probably one of my favorites. It speaks right to my soul. John O'Donohue's poetic prose describes the stages of life and how to meet them with emotional grace and serenity. I adore his language, the way he presents the world, and his honesty. I've sent a couple quotes from this book to friends struggling and re-read those quotes anytime I struggle and need reminded of the beauty of our earth.

Favorite quote:
“Your soul knows the geography of your destiny. Your soul alone has the map of your future, therefore you can trust this indirect, oblique side of yourself. If you do, it will take you where you need to go, but more important it will teach you a kindness of rhythm in your journey.”
