A peek into my bedside night table library… Strong on spirit and heart:-) Like Oprah, I love Eckhart Tolle, I keep his books close to my heart. My favorite excerpt from his book, “The Power of Now,” is:
“If her past were your past, her pain your pain, her level of consciousness your level of consciousness you would think and act exactly as she does. With this realization comes forgiveness, compassion, peace.”
Comes in handy on many occasions…, especially watching the news…

On my night table I have kept that jade plant alive for five years! Picture of Victor and me on our wedding day…

My bedside… I love muted earth colors in my bedroom, I feel it is calming:) Crochet blanket under comforter and crochet pillow sham, I bought those at a local antique shop. I made the comforter and pillow sham, hard to see, but I made dust ruffle to match too. Also, made the round pillow, I remember that style pillow in my grandmother’s home, adds to the vintage look. And that little buddha statue, I bought on Amazon (absolutely love Amazon Prime, it’s life changing), needed a little more of a zen vibe:) I’m sure you all feel the same way, I need all the calmness I can get at night, when I put my head on the pillow…
Listened to “The Power of Now” on audiobook (twice) about 10 years back, it made a huge impact on my way of thinking. Such a powerful book.
