Matins

[Anne Gibbons]

This is so beautiful, and so lovely to hear your voice as you read it, Tess! What a wonderful poem to hear as I head out to take a walk on a gorgeous Sun day. Thank you!

The power of the written word is almost as life giving as the air we breath, the water we drink.

It's like earths gravity. It keeps us grounded in knowledge and wisdom we can share.

♥️ Our hunger to belong. Encouraging words. They remind me of this brief scene in the 1985 movie, Witness, where good eventually triumphs over evil: https://youtu.be/hdW1BlDtcyU?si=cFe_eJAYxZIMW3YX

p.s. this old Irish hymn sung by Nathan Pacheco seems somehow fitting for me as I meditate in and re-read O’Donohue’s reverent and lovely ‘Matins’, thank you again…

indeed tess it is him we must thank

I had the immense pleasure of seeing him in person in Portland, Oregon, a few years before his premature death.

His book Anam Cara is absolutely beautiful and moving as well.
