At 4:15pm on July 23, 2009, Katrien Sercu said…: Dear Jose, colours, forms, mouvement, views, music, wholeness...it give me goose pimples! Beauty given with love and friendship...what a gift. It was meditation to listen en to see.Thanks Jose. It remember me the time I played violon in tenderness and beauty. Why do I forgot this?
My English is also poor, as a flamisch women...but I learn it a little bit and this is enough. When you want to know me a little bit better (the colours of my soul), then you can read what I wrote on ning...(if you want of course.)
I know and feel -like you- that the most important thing in live and in the world is love in all his forms, simple, pure and honest. So easy and so difficult.
I absorb your sentence 'may always a smile be in your heart' and I want to add 'remember always the warmth and the light of theSun, even in darkness'. If we live with this in our heart, Amida can shine in our 'turmoilly' world...
Until next time Jose!!
With love and friendship.

Just wanted to say the 'circumstantial identities' doesn't really reflect what I mean. I'm not happy with the phrase. Sounds too dry right now and lacking in compassion for the poor struggling ego that yearns to find a place of firm foundation and hope. Life is tough and we are only here for a short time - for me it's about learning to love this life we are gifted with.

I recieved your blessing as from one human being to another - once again I thank you for the gift. It a curious and yet moving experiance - that people from diverse regions are able to meet relating on a heart level beneath our circumstantial identities.
I wish you well.
Richard
