In the Spirit of Things




Like so many at this time I am reading Eckhart Tolle's book a New Earth. In fact he and Oprah are conducting a 10 week class based on its premise through a series of Webcasts. One quote of many that I find to cross reference well with my content in this blog is that "in most ancient cultures, people believed that everything, even so-called inanimate objects, had an indwelling spirit, and in this respect they were closer to the truth than we are today".

I am reminded that our objects of daily living reflect us and the way we use them can support us. Just another layer of mindfulness to consider.
