"Awaken to the mystery of being here and enter the quiet immensity of your own presence.Have joy and peace in the temple of your senses.Receive encouragement when new frontiers beckon.Respond to the call of your gift and the courage to follow its path.Let the flame of anger free you of all falsity.
May warmth of heart keep your presence aflame.May anxiety never linger about you.May your outer dignity mirror an inner dignity of soul.Take time to celebrate the quiet miracles that seek no attention.Be consoled in the secret symmetry of your soul.May you experience each day as a sacred gift woven around the heart of wonder."

thanks for the credit :-)
i love o'donohue's words and the photo is beautiful.
I really liked the poem; perhaps I'll even get his book.
The photo was taken earlier this year in a meadow with a stream, near Bishop, CA (we had to dodge the cattle! ;))
