This is the meditation teacher for CORE40. Thought we could all use a pick
me up on this particularly cold and rainy day.

*Life-long learning.*

When Maya Angelou was interviewed by Oprah on her show for Dr. Angelou’s
74th birthday, Oprah asked her what she thought of growing older. Dr.
Angelou shared this advice:

*I’ve learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life
does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I’ve learned that you can tell
a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy
day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights. I’ve learned that
regardless of your relationship with your parents, you’ll miss them when
they’re gone from your life. I’ve learned that making a "living" is not the
same thing as making a "life’.” I’ve learned that life sometimes gives you
a second chance.   I’ve learned that you shouldn’t go through life with a
catcher’s mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back.
  I’ve learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I
usually make the right decision.   I’ve learned that even when I have
pains, I don’t have to be one.   I’ve learned that every day you should
reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat
on the back.   I’ve learned that I still have a lot to learn.   I’ve
learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you
did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.*

...............................

I love that list. Love the idea of life-long learning. And so I'd like to
ask for your help in making another list. Write me back with just one thing
you’ve learned, <james at vedicpathmeditation.com?subject=I've%20learned> (no
pressure to match Dr. Angelou for poetic wisdom) and I'll compile the
replies for a future post.

With love, James
