John O’Donohue is wonderful… I started reading him a few years ago and have since read a number of his books. I think Shari gets credit for discovering him (probably via her friend Gail Johnsen).

But I think you were already traveling that path with writers like Mary Oliver and Naomi Shihab Nye, both artists with words. If you have not already encountered his rich legacy, you may also enjoy John O’Donahue, an Irish writer and spiritual explorer. His lyrical reflections and blessings always take me to a better place. He left us too soon.

Thank you for this list of readings – I shall keep it close at hand.

It makes me smile to have shared many of these readings together. Thank you for being a growing, changing person. I love you.
