Spring Perspectives: John O'Donohue Discusses Time and Change

Change and Time

Time runs silently by as we rush about, yet soon the actual proportion of passing time will walk unexpectedly into your door – it's in the nature of things.

This delightful conversation about life, and where we find ourselves, will shed some interesting deeper perspectives on any recovery process – recovery from any illusions you may have carried with your previous understanding. John reads some of his poetry and comments on his book Eternal Echoes: On Our Yearning to Belong

Listen to John talk about the “evacuation of interiority” – the loss of the internal perspective.

You will much enjoy John's delightful Irish brogue, and will find yourself fascinated by how he simplifies complex issues. Krista [with American Public Media – Speaking of Faith] is the perfect companion for this interview, one of his last before he died in Jan. '08 at age 52.

You will enjoy listening to this one, about 52 min duration, – no dull moments, beautiful images.

    Thank you so much for this beautiful sharing of John O’Donohue’s interview. I cried as I heard him speak…I leave soon for Ireland and will be immersed in the beauty and culture of his homeland. I was richly blessed to be with him on two occasions.
