What a delicious morning of TV! Oprah's focus on spirituality made for a brilliant hour of television. Elizabeth Lesser,The author who was the primary guest had wonderful, practical simple suggestions. Like starting out doing one minute a day of spiritual contemplation, then increasing it by a minute a month until by December you are doing 12 minutes a day. And you have a spiritual practice! So brilliant, simple, and achievable by anyone. I love that.
And there was more. The show had a seamless integrity to it. Kudos to the producers! Marianne Williamson's comment that one's problem is not what you're getting, but what and how you're giving was an eye opener.
The couple who had experienced the death of one of their twin sons had enormously practical things to say. Taking the time to grieve, and how they finally moved on, delicious stuff!
In Chicago ABC follows Oprah with The View.
Paul McCartney was the first guest, so more treats. He was his usual delightful self. He is a lovely model of success, doing what he loves, and providing a wonderful service to the world in the process.
Richard Belzer and Richard Lewis were next. They described themselves as "a couple of old Jews"...etc. Funny, familiar stuff. For people of a certain age, ie, Boomers and people like myself, these guys are all like family that we grew up with.
So now here it is 11 AM and my day is well underway.
