The ancient Celts did not differentiate between the sacred and the secular. Rather, to these peoples, virtually everything under the sun had spiritual significance. Ray Simpson illustrates this Celtic vision of spirituality in his collection of over 130 blessings for almost every aspect of our lives, from baptizing an infant to buying a new car, from leaving home to falling in love. Celtic Blessings: Prayers for Everyday Life is a must for fans of Celtic spirituality or anyone who seeks to appreciate the wisdom of one of the world's oldest religious traditions.

WAS SHE MAKING A MISTAKE? Tracy wondered if it was okay for her to get interested in the brother of her sister's fiancé'. It seemed sort of weird, but she really liked Biff, and she had a feeling that he felt the same way about her. But there were a few problems: her best friend seemed to be monopolizing him, and Tracy had reason to suspect that Biff might be adopting a life-style that most definitely was not hers. Was it true, as Craig told Janine, that Biff was a boozer? At the tender age of fifteen, was he really ruining his chances not only to be on the basketball team but also of making it as a team with Tracy? [text from book jacket]
