#OTD in 1830 – The “Wild Colonial Boy” is shot dead in a gun battle with police at Campbelltown, Sydney.

On this date in 1830, The “Wild Colonial Boy” is shot dead in a gun battle with police at Cambelltown, Sydney. Contrary to the popular song, “The Wild Colonial Boy” was John Donohue, transported from Ireland in 1824. This version was outlawed as seditious, so the name in the song was changed to Jack Doolan. The Irish version is about a Jack Duggan, young emigrant who left the town of Castlemaine,…

Excerpt from the poem "For the Dying," by John O'Donohue

May there be some beautiful surprise

Waiting for you inside death

Something you never knew or felt,

Which with one simple touch

Absolves you of all loneliness and loss,

As you quicken within the embrace

For which your soul was eternally made.

May your heart be speechless

At the sight of the truth

Of all your belief had hoped,

Your heart breathless

In the light and lightness

Where each and every thing

Is at last its true self

Within that serene belonging

That dwells beside us

On the other side

Of what we see.

Possa tu ascoltare il tuo desiderio di libertà. Possano i confini del tuo appartenere essere sufficientemente generosi per i tuoi sogni. Possa tu svegliarti ogni giorno con una voce benevola che sussurra nel tuo cuore. Possa tu trovare armonia tra anima e vita. Possa il santuario della tua anima non essere mai infestato. Possa tu conoscere l’eterno desiderio che vive nel cuore del tempo. Possa esserci gentilezza nel tuo sguardo quando ti guardi dentro. Possa tu non creare barriere tra la luce e te stesso. Possa tu permettere alla bellezza selvaggia del mondo invisibile di raccoglierti, prendersi cura di te ed abbracciarti nell’appartenere.

-John O’ Donohue-

“You are so knitted into a day. You are within it; the day is as close as your skin. It is around your eyes; it is inside your mind. The day moves you, often it can weigh you down; or again it can raise you up. Yet the amazing fact is: this day vanishes. When you look behind you, you do not see your past standing there in a series of day shapes. You cannot wander back through the gallery of your past. Your days have disappeared silently and for ever. Your future time has not arrived yet. The only ground of time is the present moment.” - John O’Donohue, from Anam Cara, The Book of Celtic Wisdom

Imagination as the Path of the Spirit John O Donohue

[salonduthe]

You are in this time of the interim where everything seems withheld. The path you took to get here has washed out. The way forward is still concealed from you. The old is not old enough to have died away, the new is still too young to be born. You cannot lay claim to anything in this place of dusk. Your eyes are blurred and there is no mirror.

Everyone else has lost sight of your heart and you can see nowhere to put your trust. You know you have to make your own way through. As far as you can, hold your confidence.

Do not allow your confusion to squander this call which is loosening your roots in false ground, that you might become free of all you had outgrown.

What is being transfigured here is your mind and it is difficult and slow to become you. The more faithfully you can endure here, the more refined your heart will become for your arrival in the new dawn.

~John O'Donohue

#OTD in 2012 – Death of Bernard Noël 'Banjo Barney' McKenna, a musician and a much-loved founding member of The Dubliners.

Barney McKenna was the last surviving founding member of the Irish folk group the Dubliners. With Luke Kelly’s powerful voice and force of nature on stage, Ronnie Drew’s gravelly memorable vocal sound, it was McKenna’s playing of the tenor banjo, coupled with John Sheahan’s fiddle, that gave the Dubliners their original instrumental quality. In the process, McKenna redefined the role of the banjo…
