This is what I needed to hear today what you say in your writing, "When choosing a good friend, would you feel safe trekking Mount Everest with this person or would the person let go of your hand and drop the rope if you started falling, wave bye bye and say, “Have a nice day,” or hold onto your hand tightly and use the rope to pull you to safety? Observe how someone talks about and treats others to know how that person will also talk about and treat you. To have a good friend, you have to be a good friend."

Truth and big wisdom to help us on the path!

I love you Terry ever since the early eighties when you had the ministry in LaJolla, I can't spell it now. I would love it if you'd watch this Samadi movie Part III, at least for a few minutes....if you haven't already... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vu-Nw_ea9N4 I am in the joy and peace of Being daily, with no self either and I began with what your email said to do, forty years ago ! in the eighties. It has been a great journey. You were my beginning inspiration then, but you hadn't discovered your True Self yet, I don't think. Now your email shows me clearly that you have or at least beginning to see....LOVE to you....

To live life fully . . . with good friends, a happy heart, beautiful desires, and appreciation as a heart song that brings our most cherished dreams into form . . . is the music our inner ears most love to hear! Thank you for your beautiful spirit and these mighty inspirations. Keep them coming! Love and appreciation to you Terry!
