I have recently come across a book of blessings, written from the depths of soulfulness by the mystic, former theologian, the late John O'Donohue. I had wanted to share this one earlier but with a sick child, didn't have a chance to get it out.
When I first read this blessing, I promptly copied it down in my journal. I was struck by how I have been hiding in what I thought was safety. But it is really a call to go out into the world with a renewed sense of adventure, with the awareness that this is not easy. But I think the world does want to see you out there, as an active and creative participant.
I wanted to share it because I think it is collectively for all of you, not only at Daily Kos but for you individually in the nation who have yearned and worked so hard for this, as we witness the inauguration of our new President.
The world, your world, our world, awaits us as we have been waiting for this.
Please join me in the jump.
