[easyazon-link asin=”0300108168″ locale=”us”]The Tempest[/easyazon-link]
by William Shakepseare [easyazon-link asin=”B007SZQXXI” locale=”us”]Kindle ebook for only $0.99![/easyazon-link] This play meets me in so many different places. Sometimes it seems to be a play about the divided kingdoms of my own psyche, sometimes about sweep of history, sometimes about cultivating personal compassion and forgiveness. The play is dark and light, cruel and kind, immense and intimate. |

by Lao Tzu
[easyazon-link asin=”B004U2ACDY” locale=”us”]Kindle ebook for only $0.99![/easyazon-link] Last year when I had a long commute, I read this book over and over on the train. It has so much accumulated wisdom, it almost makes me question human evolution. “See the world as your self.
Have faith in the way things are.
Love the world as your self;
then you can care for all things.”
