A Final Irish Blessing for the Day – Beannacht by John O’Donohue

Shortly before his death in 2008, the late Irish poet John O’Donohue recited his poem, meaning blessing, during an interview with Krista Tippett. Here we see it presented woven his close friends’ photographs of him in his Celtic landscapes with this reading. I love it.

 
I also highly recommend this inspiring episode of the podcast On Being with Krista Tippet.
