Dear Spirit to Spirit friend,
This is from Eckhart Tolle's "Guardians of Being", an expression Eckhart's great learnings from dog.
See if you resonate with his awareness of who dogs are in their deeper nature.
"The dog is in the Now
so they can teach you or remind you.
Be alert as you watch a dog at play or at rest.
Let the animal teach you to feel at home in the
Now...to celebrate life by being
completely present.
The dog is still in the natural state.
And you can easily see that,
because you have problems and your dog doesn't.
And while your happy moments may be rare,
your dog celebrates life continuously.
You just watch the tail...
with some dogs you just look at them-
just a little look is enough- and their tail goes...
"Life is good! Life is good!"
And they are not telling themselves a story of why life is good.
It's a direct realization.
The human says, "I love myself" or, "I hate myself."
The dogs says, "Woof, woof",
which translated means
"I am myself."
I call that integrity- being one with yourself."
In Gratitude & Love, Joanna
