On the other side of doors, of fences, of containment, of fear, is freedom.
Freedom to run the fields, eat the grasses, feel the wind, know that you are loved unconditionally.
Freedom is Christ.
“If the Son has set you free, you are free indeed.” ~ John 8:36
Blessings and joy and freedom for your day, Lisa
A rainy day at Clonmacnoise; no crowds, just stillness.
“Some people feel the rain; others just get wet.” ~Bob Marley
“For after all, the best thing one can do when it is raining is let it rain.” ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
May the blessing of God’s soft rain be on you,
Falling gently on your head, refreshing your soul
With the sweetness of little flowers newly blooming.
May the strength of the winds of Heaven bless you,
Carrying the rain to wash your spirit clean
Sparkling after in the sunlight.
May the blessing of God’s earth be on you,
And as you walk the roads,
May you always have a kind word
for those you meet. ~Irish Blessing
Have a great day. Slainte, Lisa
“If God gives you the strength, see it through to the end. Mind ye, ‘twould come harder on you to travel the fifteen miles back to your starting point than to walk the thousand-odd miles yet before you.” Last of the Donkey Pilgrims, Kevin O’Hara, c2004
Yes, I’m reading it again. (fourth time through) And yes, I’m loving it again. Who can say what it is about a certain book that makes you love it? All I know is that I’m happy, and smiling, and chuckling just like the first time I read it. And I’m glad of it. Thank you, Kevin O’Hara.
So you might be hearing nuggets of it this week as I rediscover favorite lines along the way. Yay for donkeys! 🙂 Slainte, Lisa
