today dilip sri veriveraji came to my store. he is the neighborhood guru teaching tm which is a place where people go and do meditation. he is from india and whenever i listen to him i get seasick because he contineously moves his head from side to side when he talks. he was here to buy some onion potato chips and heard david bitch about his personal and financial problems. with a very high pitch voice that only indians can produce he told us about a book he had read once about a man who limped when he walked. People who knew him asked him why he was limping. he told them that he had a small pebble in his right shoes that was causing him much discomfort and pain. he kept moving the pebble around in his shoes away from the fleshy parts to between his toes. but soon the offending stone would reappear and hurt him even more. The writer went on wondering why the man never thought of stopping for a moment and removing the pebble from his shoes. dilip said that in life many of us act like this man. we go on enduring our pains and putting up with a lot of negativity but do nothing about solving them. he told david to try to grow up and face his problems squarely and deal with them as an adult and in a decisive way. he also told him to enrole in his tm class which will help improve his mind.
maryam has started talking to me on the phone but has not been to the store yet. naaz mikoneh digeh ghorboonesh beram.
