It's not all about me

I have become hooked on memoirs - For you yogis and spiritual seekers - "Devotion" - by Dani Shapiro is a good read. Much about her struggling with her Jewish background. And, "Teacher Man" by Frank McCourt also held my attention from beginning to end. Strange, but my interests seem to have shifted to other people - it's less "about me" now and learning from others. That is a hard lesson - that everything in the world is not about me - but what a delightful peace arises when I do recognize it. Memoirs from others help.----Goldfinches are here!
