In dwelling, live close to the ground. In thinking, keep it to the simple.
In conflict, be fair and generous.
In governing, don't try to control.
In work, do what you enjoy. In family life, be completely present.

Incense

My parents recently introduced us to burning frankincense resin. WHAT A DELIGHT! Not only did our house smell divine, but any food smells were gone! We were all amateur resin burners, so we used residue charcoal from our fireplace. Having a baby around, we were worried about the pollutants from all the smoke so we haven't burned any resin since. But I would love to smell frankincense again and google-discovered some fragrance free and sulfur, saltpeter and other chemical additives free ways to burn resin on Incense Warehouse! I can't wait till my box of tablets arrive!
