Meister Eckhart was a medieval philosopher, theologian and one of the great Christian mystics. His writings and teachings created quite a stir, and eventually he was accused of heresy by the church.

The other morning I stood in the crisp, early air of February, in the freshness of the dawning light, and knew without question the ecstatic and complex glory of my very simple life.
