Blessed be the longing that brought you here
And quickens your soul with wonder.
May you have the courage to listen to the voice of desire
That disturbs you when you have settled for something safe.
May you have the wisdom to enter generously into your own unease
To discover the new direction your longing wants you to take.
May the forms of your belonging–in love, creativity, and friendship–
Be equal to the grandeur and the call of your soul.
May the one you long for long for you.
May your dreams gradually reveal the destination of your desire.
May a secret Providence guide your thought and nurture your feeling.
May your mind inhabit your life with the sureness with which your body inhabits the world.
May your heart never be haunted by ghost structures of old damage.
May you come to accept your longing as divine urgency.
May you know the urgency with which God longs for you!~O’Donohue 🙌🏼 This poem here brought me out of the darkest winter a couple of years ago. I’ve been thinking a lot about “shame” the last couple of days. What are the unspoken assumptions that keep us tied to hidden trauma . We practice our Shamanic work to reveal our hidden shadows who long to be integrated and loved as part of our own humanity and recovering our sense of Belonging.
