PEOPLE

“Each day is a journey. We come out of the night into the day. All creativity awakens at this primal threshold, where light and darkness test and bless each other. You only discover balance in your life when you learn to trust the flow of this ancient rhythm. The year is also a journey with the same rhythm. The Celtic people had a deep sense of the circular nature of our journey. We come out of the darkness of winter into the possibility and effervescence of springtime.”

From Anam Cara The Book of Celtic Wisdom, by John O’Donahue.
