Johnny Duhan, The Spirit.
I wrote The Spirit in the run-up to Pentecost Sunday, for our son, Ronan, after he was involved as a passenger in a horrific car on Mother's Day, 2024, to remind Ronan of the spirit that once took us to the top of the highest mountain in Ireland. Carrauntoohil, the same spirit that is helping him now in recovery, four months after the accident.

Song and reflection from my Cell: The Resurrection of the Rose. 6 October 2023
Просмотров 40Год назад
Song from my Cell: Flame, ignited from The Resurrection of the Rose. Please listen carefully to the introduction, as it contains one of the greatest insights I've learned about modern culture, with the back up of some of the finest artistic minds of our time and times gone by. The song that ends the reflection, in a way, is the treasure I discovered at the shores of the heart. Please leave a co...

My faith that there is a meaning and purpose to the journey helps me continue with high hope. But for those who don't have that belief, I have the deepest sympathy.

      Quick off the mark, Michael. This is the opening section of part two of an updated version of the title chapter of my Songbook, To the Light. When it was first published, The Irish Times gave it this accolade: "It's unlikely you'll read a better book this year." Hopefully it's improved since then. Send your friends a link to it, if you have time. Over the coming weeks I'll publish the full chapter, rom the horse's mouth, so to speak. Or should I say, sing. johnnyduhan.com

    I'd like to dedicate this song to a group of Ukrainian kids I saw last night on TV playing together near the Polish border in minus 5% while their distressed mothers looked on, hugging themselves against the cold. One child in particular caught my attention. When the TV camera lens focused on his little oval face, his lips curled into a mellow smile and his eyes lit up like candles. Kids are amazingly resilient, though they shouldn't have to be in this tragedy. God be with them.
