This book by Matthieu Ricard has really changed my life. There is a sweetness and an unparalleled simplicity ... It's a breath of fresh air, a balm for the heart, honey to the soul ... It really helps to see things from from another perspective, forgiving, accepting, and measuring the richness of what we have in this moment of our lives, even and especially when you have little ... As always with Matthieu Ricard, the book is very accessible, and very well written. Then we were lucky to have a French monk, so it does not lose any concept nor subtlety in translation. Do not hesitate for a second, this book is a gem!
