overshare

i'm not a religious person, but just like everyone else, i need some bigger things to look to when things are tough, or new, or scary, or challenging.  when i found myself unexpectedly unemployed in 2009, i knew i was going to need some major coping mechanisms to get through a tricky time in my life.  along with some other helpful reads, i purchased this book - the book of awakening by mark nepo - and it has become a dog-eared, carry with me everywhere staple in my life ever since. 

i read this bit today, and thought it was worth sharing.
