Book reviews are back! This is a book that I come to when I need to refresh my sense of magic about the human condition. Short letters that read like poetry – I am no connoisseur of poetry but I do like it for that sense of awe that it lends to ordinary stuff. And that’s kind of what Kai Cheng Thom is saying…that this extraordinary beauty in compassion and reverence actually IS an ordinary thing… people are out there every day feeling the lightness of their bodies in ways we kind of take for granted, or don’t recognize. Anyway, she really slows it down to show us the details of love and I really need that in my life.
You can’t read therapy and self-help books all the time. Sometimes to reconnect with connection you have to be open to other ways of connecting? That was a confusing statement, I know. I stand by it though
