The masses are asking what is the truth?  One of the things you can do is: with each finger and each hand, one at a time,  touch your thumb... and repeat " Sa, Ta, Na, Ma."  This is a mantra done daily that means "truth is my identity."   Entertain and remain in positive thoughts and deeds.  Through love the scaffold becomes a throne...Rumi.   Rumi understood the human condition and navigated wisely to restore light even in his darkest hour.  After watching the opening of the London Olympics I continued smiling because everyone else was doing so.  Every person looked radiant and amazed at their great fortune to do what they enjoyed for their country.  

The other night I was with the woman who wrote "Bonjour, Happiness!, Jamie Cat Callan."  Her books are about finding your "Joie De Vivre."  She told stories about lovers and lovers of art or lovers of food, and all the while I was mesmorized by her ability to draw me in, as if I was her best confidant.  It is a beautiful quality.  I told Jamie about my own relationships and she gladly offered advice.  When we reach out and help there can be no failure or falling.  Its a  special gift to multiply happiness and divide griefs.   There is splendor in nature and the nature of people.  Practice hospitality in the most dire of circumstances for it is like a cordial ...it will warm your spirit.   Noblity has nothing to do with ranking and everything to do with offering the role of compassion, that is golden.  What is the truth? A private ritual, the balance between source and yourself,  fortified because truth is your identity.
