Being Home

I have bought this book several times. I love it so much I've given many copies away to friends. This last copy is for myself. And I was very satisfied with this shopping experience. Thanks!

An amazing book

There's a long tradition in Celtic religious language of finding a way to turn even the smallest and most ordinary activities into meditation or prayer. We find it charming when we read the results in the context of mowing hay or bringing in the cows, but it's hard to imagine it in the context of today's daily round. Gunilla Norris has managed to do it -- for such things as paying bills and doing the laundry and setting the alarm -- and it's a marvel. The book is indispensable, and it is an extra bonus that it's beautifully designed and produced and so well-made that you'll be able to pass it on to your children and grandchildren. It has my highest recommendations.

This book is very, very special.

The pictures and the accompanying text are inspiring and absolutely perfect together so that the overall effect of this book is impossible to describe in words. Get it, read it again and again for the rest of your life, and you'll see what I mean.
