Talking to Myself

This beautiful collection of reflections came about by chance during the pandemic as a means of keeping a Catholic parish community in touch with each other.

Parish priest Father Tom O'Neill decided to send out a little reflection – just a thought or two each week. This is a collection of those reflections.

It is not intended to be read as a normal book, as each reflection stands on its own and is not connected to what goes before or what follows. So take them in the way they originated. Read the reflection, then put the book away and think not only about what you, the reader, have read, but more importantly, what is going on inside yourself.

As a result, what are you thinking? What are you feeling? Here is where we find the quiet conversation between creator and creature. This is the “pearl of great price” Jesus spoke about. Here you locate Jesus and he finds you.

Each reflection in itself is only intended as a tool to help us get in touch with the flow of life that's inside all of us, something we all have in common – the life Jesus promised: “I have come to give you life, life in abundance.”

These reflections will be helpful to people of all faiths and no faith because they speak to the heart. The aim is to help the reader get in touch with what is going on inside. For although we live life on the outside, we carry it in the inside. And we understand life better and see it more clearly backwards, though we must live it forwards because that is the way life comes to us. Here is where we all find ourselves in this busy pressurised world that God loved so much he sent his only son to save.

This book will help you enter the two common grounds we all share – the human heart and the world we live in. They speak to the heart and to this all too often battered and broken, yet beautiful world.
