I have been reading Eckhart Tolle's "A New Earth" which has been thought provoking in many ways, but so far my favorite insight from the book has been his view on achieving greatness. "The great arises out of small things that are honored and cared for." By concentrating on and honoring the present moment we can accomplish more than by striving for future "greatness". The key of course is in remembering to focus on the now.

Hey, just stumbled on your blog by looking for sites with Golden Retriever interests, and I see you are reading the book I was just gifted. I haven't started it yet, but now I think I will. Thanks, and good blogging!
