Anam Cara

"Even though life may have moved wearily and painfully through such a person, they have still managed not to let it corrode their soul. In such a face a lovely luminosity shines out into the world. It casts a tender light that radiates a sense of wholeness and wholesomeness."

-John O'Donohue, "Anam Cara: A Book of Celtic Wisdom"

I'm not sure if my planned visit to the ashram will happen this weekend...I'd like to go, but I also have $200 worth of food that must be cooked after having no water on Monday all day when it should have been cooked, & spending the afternoon walking through the park today with a sweet woman enduring a painful breakup. I have a friend who needs kindness tomorrow too. I don't know what is possible. I will just have to surrender and see what appears on the horizon as the right things to do for my soul's care & for others.
