May Your Walls Know Joy: Blessings for Home (Affirmations, Meditations, for Readers of Deepening Your Prayer Life)

By Mary Anne Radmacher

Book Overview

Mary Anne Radmacher could be the Martha Stewart of inspired living--living life to its fullest. Her previous books, Live Boldly and Lean Forward into Your Life, share stories and strategies for savoring every morsel of this life and living up to our fullest potential and beyond our wildest dreams. In May Your Walls Know Joy, Radmacher returns to her signature style, combining a few poetic, aphoristic words with beautifully constructed fourcolor art. This book is a celebration of home and family and all that they mean--a refuge from the world, a creative incubator, where lives are lived and friends are welcome. This book is a benediction and a blessing for a new home (or for a special occasion in an old home): May your walls / know joy, / each room / hold laughter, and every window open to great possibility. May home be the place from which you launch your dreams.

Chocolate and Caramel

Combining such beautiful art with such moving words and wrapping it up in a modern day Irish Blessing -- 'tis something to behold. This is THE book I'm gifting to everyone that's moving in, moving out, moving around their homes. I have a supply stashed because I finally have found the ideal housewarming present, the "extra" to add to the wedding shower baskets, the grown child moving off to their first apartment present. The words are haunting and compelling -- the art joyeous. It's the best of both, chocolate and caramel. To be savored! If I was a real estate agent? This would be my go to book to give both buyer and seller at every closing!

Comfort and Joy

This book is very grounding and comforting ... after reading this book, clearly, "home" is more than just an address. You may find yourself inspired - you may reflect on the "home" you grew up in and what you want your "home" to be. What legacy do you want leave? A great gift for those leaving "home" to go build their own. Or a gift to self as a reminder of gratitude for your own. As usual, Mary Anne has the profound ability to say so much in so few words ... a book that takes 10 minutes to read, and one that you will re-read, over and over - when you seek the comfort of "home". Another beautiful addition to Mary Anne's collection.
