I am Living With a Maniac

In fact, we all are.



I am reading a remarkable book.
"A New Earth."




It's a book that has really "snapped my neck."
Made me look at things in a new way.


It's a book about the ego.


About how we all have this little narcissistic voice in our heads that constantly "talks" about "what I want,
what I need, what I don't like," and on and on and on.
I believe this book is revolutionary.

I wish everyone could/would read it.


The lesson is important.
(and, at times, difficult to "plug in" to real life.)

But it just makes so much sense.

And I think the book points the way to contentment and joy.
Even here on Earth.
Even now.

Especially now.

This book is important.


ps. Just wanted to add one of my favorite quotes here.
It sort of applies.

Finish each day and be done with it.
You have done what you could.
Some blunders and absurdities no doubt have crept in;
forget them as soon as you can.

Tomorrow is a new day;
begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense.
This day is all that is good and fair.
It is too dear, with its hopes and invitations, to waste a moment on yesterdays.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
