Let’s Speak English Book 2 TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Beşir Kitabevi

Oh, Pema. The trick to what she writes about is that it is so easy to understand intellectually, and so incredibly challenging to know emotionally, much less to actually pull off in the mess of day-to-day living. But that's the point, really: to keep trying. To let things be messy (and there's good messy and bad messy) and be in the messiness and know that the messiness isn't what we're supposed to escape from to our real lives, the messiness IS our real lives. Which we're constantly trying to run from. So, as usual, she's given me lots to think about in a few precious pages, and I know it's a book I'll be going back to. One of my favorite passages: "People have no respect for impermanence. We take no delight in it; in fact, we despair of it. We regard it as pain. We try to resist it by making things that will last--forever, we say--things that we don't have to wash, things that we don't have to iron. Somehow, in the process of trying to deny that things are always changing, we lose our sense of the sacredness of life. We tend to forget that we are part of the natural scheme of things." (Re-read this book - I think for the 3rd time? - five years after this first review. It just gets better, and this is the quote that I'm loving the best these days: “To be fully alive, fully human, and completely awake is to be continually thrown out of the nest.”)
