Sending you so much love and hope for swift relief, Amrita.

Some teachers we would prefer to do without, and yet...May your compassion for yourself continue to grow. xoxo

Hi Jan — I have finally come to the place where I have very deep compassion for myself. And for all others suffering beings. Please read the last note I wrote you on Daniel's poem that you posted!

Maybe this teacher will provide exactly what I need: to deepen understanding, stretch my heart wider, flush out remaining attachments, and ignite deeper awakening.

I think you live in the East, so I hope your mid day is beautiful, not too hot, and that joy touches you in some way. I am sending love, to you my new long-distance friend who responds so kindly to my poems.

Nothing touches suffering like compassion, in my experience. I live in Ottawa Ontario and this mid-day is indeed beautiful. love and joy to you as well my friend xoxo
