hello

[Grace]

I'm glad I found this forum. I discoved Moore's writing about a year ago, starting with "The Soul of Sex," and became an instant fan. In the last year I've also read "Life at Work," "Care of the Soul," and I'm currently on "Soul Mates." Obviously, I have found meaning in his words. I read a lot of spiritual books, but there is always something missing, and I sometimes find myself "ungrounded." I guess that's way I like Moore's books, they find the sacred in the everyday, an acceptance of the here and now, even if it's unbelivably complicated.

A little bit about myself. I live in the country in a handmade house with my partner of 6 years, a man that I love deeply, although we are not without our issues:) This year I discovered I love to garden and have an interest in the natural plants around me. I've been practicing yoga for about 12 years. I think of myself as a student of mindfullness. I'm a home-body. I love taking care of my home, cooking, reading, and writing.

I look forward to participanting here, but it's going to have to wait until next week, as I'm trying to squeeze in the last bit of summer fun with a camping trip.

Barque, I found the forum from the badge on the blog.
