A fabulous new Message from the Muse
I just came across this in John O'Donohue's book, Anam Cara. It made me ache for its beauty....
"The imagination loves symbol because it recognizes that inner divinity can only find expression in symbolic form. The symbol never gives itself completely to the light. It invites thought precisely because it resides on the threshold of darkness. Through the imagination, the soul creates and constructs your depth experience. Imagination is the most reverent mirror of the inner world."
John O’Donohue
