The Power of Now – from our pets’ perspective

—

, , , , ,

I came across this post from 2017 and it brought a big smile today. Enjoy!

I love The Guardians of Being – a collaboration between Eckhart Tolle and comic strip artist Patrick McDonnell. In Guardians of Being reminds us of not only the oneness of all life but also the wonder and joy to be found in the present moment.

McDonnell has created a new comic strip based on The Power of Now!

Poer of now

Bringing light and lightness.

Try not to smile…

Now!

This post is especially for Paul over at Learning From Dogs.  and very dog and cat owner 🐾
