Over the last 8 years, NRDC helped remove six of the most dangerous toxics from pet products. But we need your help to get rid of the rest. Help us get rid of these toxics by signing up, downloading a guide, requesting an action kit, and supporting Green Paws!.

Friends are companions that accept each other for who they are.
Cherished when our spirit needs a lift and turning to each other.
Partners in wonder, beauty, grace, and delight we bring to one another.
Our friendship is a gift of love, making the world we live in a better happier place.
I am thankful to have you as my friend.

I just want to say that I loved your book and I'm starting to reread it. I have to say that my favorite tip has to be the air-popped popcorn as shipping material instead of the packing peanuts! I have volunteered at the Toledo Zoo for over 2 years and they use popcorn in a lot of the herbivores and omnivores meals. (It's really cool watching a gorilla or the elephants eating popcorn :-D. ) But everyday people can just feed the birds afterwards! I LOVE it!!

Sep 28 2008 2:55 AM

There is something about the sunrise and the first few hours of the morning that make us feel cleansed and rejuvenated, ready to move forward enthusiastically. As the day wears on, we lose some of this dynamic energy and the inspiration it provides. This may be why we look forward to tomorrow as providing the possibility of renewal. Many traditions consider the light of the rising sun to be particularly divine in its origins; this is why so many people in the world face east when performing ritual. We too can cultivate that rising sun energy inside ourselves, carrying it with us to light our way through any time of day or night, drawing on its power to awaken and renew our spirits.
When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is
to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.
And even the sun
in dawn chorus sings,
a celestial melody to the earth
below.
May the sun illuminate your weekend,
Dr. Tatinha

Not thinking about anything is zen.
Once you know this, walking, standing, sitting, or lying down, everything you do is zen.
To know that the mind is empty is to see the Buddha...
Using the mind to look for reality is delusion.

Not using the mind to look for reality is awareness.

Freeing oneself from words is liberation.

-Bodhidharma
