Went to Vastudio tonight on a whim to see some drumming. Turns out it was one cool guy and lots of cool drums. Dancing and smiling and happiness ensued.
I keep encountering people who are unhappy, and I struggle to explain what it is that I've found that makes me happy. I mean, chi and kai chi do and calm within myself. Remaining rooted. All of this makes a lot of sense to me, but to others? Who knows. How can I convey to them what took me so many years to find?
Truth is, I can't. That's the point. I found something and grew it inside myself. I can't force that seed to grow in others. But I can give them the seed. Plant some sort of inking, some glimmer of a thought, that will grow in them the way it needs to. Therefore, patience is required. It is, in fact, a lot like planting a seed. Water it and give it sunlight. Keep talking and open up the subject. But more importantly, give it time to break the surface. You won't see the growth right away. So I guess that's the important part in spreading this. It needs to be nurtured and given time, and room, to embed itself.
With that said, I hope I will be able to help plant as many seeds as people I meet.
I love you all. Namaste.
