5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully uplifting, 22 Jul 2004
As with many Celtic themed books telling of uplifting tales, this one stood out from the rest on the shelf. Every page to me was insightful to thinking about daily life in a totally new perspective.
The author not only gives insight from Celtic wisdom of the past but offers beautiful poems that give you that toasty feeling inside to make you feel better about yourself and your place in the world.
Once finished reading this book, i guarantee you'll feel 100% better about any problems surrounding you in your life and believe it'll all work out for the better with help from your Anam Cara - your Soul Friend.

5.0 out of 5 stars soul searching book, 9 Mar 2001
The book lets you experience the various stages of looking for your anam cara. The poems are very touching and very meaningful. It is a very beautiful and enlightening read, it is also very true of Irish spirtuality!

5.0 out of 5 stars Tremendous, 28 Nov 2008
By Steven R. McEvoy "MCWPP" (Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This was a wonderful book. I am very thankful to both Fr. Jim Link and Fr. Paul Quinon for recommending it to me. I must admit that I did not get it all, but much of the Celtic Spirituality presented touched my spirit, my mind, my intellect and my soul.

It is a book about the Celtic worldview and way of life. It has made me even more homesick for the land of the Celts; it aroused a desire to return to Ireland or Scotland. Yet I realized that I would need to learn to live the Celtic way/mode here before I could even consider going back across the pond.

The book made me realize how much I needed to simplify my life, and prompted me to take a semester off school to help establish a new pattern of living and of being. It prompted me to reestablish a stronger pattern of work, bible study, prayer, reading and pursuing God and his will above all else, to try to live each day to the full, to live to be a good and true friend, and to learn to be better at being.

As an aside there are two more books by O'Donohue that follow the same spirit: Eternal Echoes and To Bless the Space Between Us both of which I attempted to read on a number of occasions but was unable to make it through. One of his books of poetry Conamara Blues - I ended up reading a number of times.
