Anam Cara

A beautiful Gaelic phrase exists that in itself sounds soul stirring. It encompasses everything you desire in a true friend - it reaches somewhere deeper than simply knowing a persons name or one or two details about them, for which the title "friend" is used. Friends and acquaintances come and go. Sadly most are not in for the long haul. When an Anam Cara comes into your life, you know you have someone special. You can feel it to your very core that this is a treasure - true and real. Anam Caras sincerely care about you and how you feel. A miraculous bond formed as two naturally gel together. Not to be confused with soul mate and romance... like such, Anam Caras are forever! ~~~ Blessed with one you'll know "Soul Friends" are a unique gift... Oh, Anam Cara!
