Yesterday here in Los Angeles I met a person I had photographed, gotten a release form from, and whom I had wanted to meet to give her a cd, brochures and articles. We met for breakfast, had a good "gabby" talk, and then I went to her house to watch the cds.
It was a neat experience, also because I am so used to Italian lifestyle, Italian stories. Here I listened to stories that were much different from my own, and saw a home that was typically American. It was all a lot of fun, and so interesting for both of us, to talk about our lives.
At the end of our typical American breakfast (yes, I am eating way too much....starting my day with, no, not a cappuccino and toast and jam or cereal but with two eggs, two pancakes, sausage, bacon and about 4 cups of American coffee!!!) this woman said something that was one of my best received compliments ever!
She told me that she had made a big lifechange just now and that I had inspired her to do so. She was going to move to another city after just having sold her home, and she was going to have a totally new existance. She said that I had given her the courage to do so, and boy was I flattered! She thought about how I had moved away, started over, and hadn't been afraid to do so. Actually I told her, it had always come totally natural to me, it was easy to travel and stay away from home for six months when I was 18, and that I never thought of it as being courageous.
But hearing how I had helped someone to change lifestyle, and take the leap into something different, was very exciting for me. I was thrilled for her. And she was even moreso I am sure.
I have always said (well, in the last several years) I love the words inspiration...and motivation.

NAMASTE GURU JI

Stories some time life look like a story

Story of a spider

Spider who make net

Net to capture prey

Prey which became his food

Food which help him to grow

Grow to reach his destination

Destination the last phase

Phase the ultimate truth

One thing which inspire me most

His determination

Determination to reach the destination

During the journey of life I am also intellectual with so many people

People who came like wind

Wind never comes alone

They always came with so many thoughts

Thoughts some are negative some are positive

Some stick with over life

During the journey I am also stick with a person

Who inspired me to write?

Write whatever I feel

I start writing

Writing which has no link with me

Know a days I am busy

But one thing which inspired me the most

Is still the group is going on

Group the 15000 stories

Only one person DETERMINATION which is carrying the group

Group to reach the ultimate destination

Destination of having 15000 stories

I wish one day the determination of my GURU JI will reach to his destination

JAI SHRI KRISHNA

DK
all I know is that you have some extremely profound thoughts...and I like them!
I like people who think
about life
about others
about being a part of a puzzle...we all fit together like puzzle pieces. And I agree also that when you are sad one should share it with others. But not all are able to do so.
Most people hide their sadness, for fear of seeming weak, insecure, and not the person they want to be.
Good brain you have there, DK
and thanks for keeping up on the group... SMiles to you!
