5 out of 5 stars Bless the Space Between Us is a blessing.   April 26, 2008
Bless the Space Between Us is a great book of wonderfully simple yet insightful poems and blessings. If we all blessed the spaces between us, there wouldn't be any spaces as we could all just be the one among us. Beautifully written and lovely in its grace and language.


5 out of 5 stars O'Donohue's blessings for us all   April 23, 2008
  5 out of 5 found this review helpful

When I grew up, every Friday night my mother would put her hands on my head and bless me with a prayer. There was always something special about that experience that has stayed with me. O'Donohue's book of powerful blessings (non-denominational except for a meditation on the eyes of Jesus) covers the breadth of life experience with depth and compassion for self and other. I savor this book and keep it close by to share with others. What a gift from O'Donohue! What a great loss: his death silenced more from such an exquisite voice of the human soul.

This is a wonderful book, either for sitting quietly and pondering specific topics or as a resource for appropriate blessings for specific events or transitions.


5 out of 5 stars John O'Donohue at his best   April 12, 2008

I have this item in book and CD formats. What a gift to our spirits! His brilliance and depth of understanding of the heart and spirit are incomparable! For those who are ministers, there's a lot of inspiration for sermons/homilies in this book. There are blessings that can be incorporated into various rites of passage, as well. He brings to light how little we bless each other and the positive difference it would make if we would. He is the soul friend of everyone who's read his works. I highly recommend this book. I'll be buying several more copies of this book as well as Anam Cara (also by John O'Donohue).

This book is a treasure trove of inspiring words, to console, encourage and strengthen. It will assist in all stages and experiences of live. It will be on my bedside locker in times of need and times of blessing.
