"Rilke recommended that when life became turbulent and troublesome, it was wise to stay close to one simple thing in nature. A friend of mine who had great trouble with her mind told me once that she had brought a stone into her apartment, and when she felt her mind going, she would concentrate on the stone.
She said, 'There is a fierce sanity in stone.'"
John O'Donohue from "To bless the Space Between Us: A Book of Blessings"
