To Renew Your Spirit Stay Clear of those Vexed in Spirit: John O'Donohue

 



To Renew Your Spirit


"Stay clear of those vexed in spirit.

Learn to linger around someone of ease

Who feels they have all the time in the world."

 

John O'Donohue

 



Returning to Your Best Self


"Be excessively gentle with yourself--


Stay clear of those vexed in spirit.

Learn to linger around someone of ease

Who feels they have all the time in the world.


Gradually, you will return to yourself,

Having learned a new respect for your heart

And the joy that dwells far within slow time."


John O'Donohue






Return to the Joys of Slow Time

Learn to be 's/he who has all the time in the world'.

Start by renewing your spirit by staying clear of others vexed in spirit,
and then allow your renewed spirit to radiate out to others.

Seek out people of ease to spend time with, 
and then seek to become a person of ease.

Learn a new respect for your heart
and the joys that dwell far within slow time.
