You can search far and in hungry places for love. It is a great consolation to know that there
is a wellspring of love within yourself.
If you trust that this wellspring is there, you will then be able to
invite it to awaken
John
O’Donohue, Anam Cara, p. 28
______________________________
I am surrounded by smoke and fire
the forests burn
and the earth
parched
turns its cracked face to a red sun
plants wither and die
in this dry and weary land
O for a wellspring water
welling up
unquenchable
to nourish the earth
and satisfy the desperate thirst
O Sacred one
water the dry earth
and water too
my parched soul
with a river of living water
with Sacred life
awake my soul
drink in
Sacred love
and be
content
