A Treasure August 26, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
To open this book and begin to read is to discover a treasure trunk full of words, strung exquisitely together with threads of deep meaning. Poetic blessings for many of life's experiences are mixed with personal yet eternal prose teaching about the nature and power of blessing, and how it functions in the life of the individual and the community. I will always keep this book close at hand.

In his final book before his all-too-early death, John O'Donohue has given us a gift most precious. His exquisite words and images capture an extraordinary range of soulful experience, companioned beautifully by his rare capacity to offer us solace of the deepest sort, to soothe our wounded places so that our spirit might be coaxed to wonder and to hope. Blessed we are to be blessed with such a book, truly a treasure for a lifetime -- one that carries in its pages limitless healing and a wondrous opening to enlightenment and joy.
I'll read this again and again. August 13, 2008
O'Donohue was so gifted. I will keep this book by my bedside. His compassion and flowing, beautiful language touches the reader's heart. I plan to read all he has written and regret that we will not have more to look forward to. Don't be misled by the title -- this is not a religious book as such, but a poetry for every occasion.
A stunning book August 4, 2008
This is my go to book whenever I need inspiration or any type of quote for a service I am writing. O'Donohue's gentle and insightful words can only get better when you enjoy him reading his work. His death is a tremendous loss to all of us.
