pickNot the tagged book. 😒 Pema Chodron was asked to come out of her own retreat to offer a weekend retreat to a group at the Naropa Institute in Boulder, Colorado. Pema‘s teachings over that weekend were recorded in front of the live audience and produced in audiobook format for everyone to enjoy. I love that Buddhist teachings are extremely relatable to my daily life.

@kspenmoll I received your gift today. I am so touched I don‘t have words. ðŸ¤
Coming down from four years of extreme peril has been a whiplash feeling
One of the worst things I‘ve had to do is look in very young students eyes and tell them I couldn‘t keep them safe from their president but would do all that is in me to fight for them and that I loved them so. I hope they remember is all I‘ve thought today.I hope they are safe & have their books.
So many new books to read! I bought myself a book for Christmas and a friend gave me a book of poetry for Christmas. But those are at home. Sadly. However, I found this in my tote. So this will be today's lunchtime tome. Happy Wednesday!
I confess. This picture is a lie. I haven't been able to concentrate on any reading in the past 24+ hours. I did get to go out and have two Schlafly Dragon Brown Ales, get my mother to think I was weird for snapping this pic, and then somehow manage to get in a fight even though she voted for Hillz. I need this week to end for real. Bonus irony for beer and Buddhism. #photoadaynov16 #bookandbrew
