One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
A Russian street musician was playing beautiful classical music by what sounded like Bach. He handed me his violin after a homeless man assaulted him because he was too close to his corner. The man asked me if I would attest to the bums assault, I said yes of course, and the man took the bum to the ground telling him to leave him alone. The bum stumbled away and the musician went back to articulating beautiful music.
Teach, Learn, Share
I enjoy meeting humans of all ages and all backgrounds. Even if I don't feel a goodness from you, I still tend to enjoy you based on the fact that I can learn from my adversaries how to love humanity in a more authentic way. People who are interested in developing themselves and are currently doing that are more enjoyable for me to meet.
