Humans are tuned for relationship. The eyes, the skin, the tongue, ears and nostrils—all are gates where our body receives the nourishment of otherness. This landscape of shadowed voices, these feathered bodies and antlers and tumbling streams—these breathing shapes are our family, the beings with whom we are engaged, with whom we struggle and suffer and celebrate.

Abram's book is wonderful and wise :-)
So now, as I try to pause in life and not doing that very well, I have to ask if you have a book list on your blog somewhere?
