Unknown: 00:00:07

Unknown: 00:00:10

experience. I feel very honored to have Dr. Kirpal Singh with me

Unknown: 00:00:16

today again from Florida, beautiful sunny Florida. We will

Unknown: 00:00:22

be talking about the importance of practicing gratitude

Unknown: 00:00:29

and the importance of sharing with other people sharing

Unknown: 00:00:35

whenever we learn a lesson, whenever we feel like we are

Unknown: 00:00:39

growing or we learn something important and life lesson, it is

Unknown: 00:00:45

really important to share with other people to Yeah, help them

Unknown: 00:00:50

grow as well and to help them find their own path. It is not

Unknown: 00:00:55

so much to tell people what to do. It is about you sharing your

Unknown: 00:01:00

experience, and people being able to apply these tools these

Unknown: 00:01:07

lessons in their life. Thank you so much for making the time here

Unknown: 00:01:13

today. Dr. Singh. And yeah, I'm excited to hear what you have to

Unknown: 00:01:19

share about this topic with us.

Unknown: 00:01:25

Well, Aurora, thank you for inviting me to the program,

Unknown: 00:01:30

greeting to you and all the audience, who may be listening

Unknown: 00:01:34

to this program.

Unknown: 00:01:37

You know, I

Unknown: 00:01:40

as you know from my last name, singh, singh means

Unknown: 00:01:45

lion, and literally.

Unknown: 00:01:49

And I grew up in Punjab, north part of India,

Unknown: 00:01:54

and income. My background is that I grew up in a

Unknown: 00:02:01

simple household with my parents and my siblings.

Unknown: 00:02:07

And we practice

Unknown: 00:02:11

what they call faith called sikh religion, Sikhism

Unknown: 00:02:15

which is based on the teachings of Guru Nanak.

Unknown: 00:02:20

Guru Nanak.

Unknown: 00:02:22

Like, is founder of, I'm in Guru Nanak. The timeline goes like

Unknown: 00:02:27

when Columbus discovered America.

Unknown: 00:02:30

And when Martin Luther in Germany started the Protestant

Unknown: 00:02:35

movement.

Unknown: 00:02:37

So that's the kind of timeline in which I grew up. I grew up I

Unknown: 00:02:42

was born and I grew up with that kind of understanding.

Unknown: 00:02:46

So in our, in our neighborhood, all kinds of people lived, who

Unknown: 00:02:50

had different religion, different castes.

Unknown: 00:02:53

And so my so we were living near an airbase.

Unknown: 00:02:58

And where people came, was stationed from all parts of

Unknown: 00:03:01

India,

Unknown: 00:03:03

you know, far flung areas like

Unknown: 00:03:06

Banga, Calcutta, which is about 4000 miles away from where I

Unknown: 00:03:10

lived, and way down and close to Sri Lanka. From there, Bombay,

Unknown: 00:03:15

and all sorts of things. My mother used to help them all,

Unknown: 00:03:20

because we rented rooms, and my mother used to help them their

Unknown: 00:03:24

wives, the mothers them, because they were so much far away from

Unknown: 00:03:28

their families.

Unknown: 00:03:30

And my mother

Unknown: 00:03:32

used to remind me, whenever I get a little anxious and angry

Unknown: 00:03:37

that you know, our

Unknown: 00:03:40

breakfast is late, or our lunches late and we are late for

Unknown: 00:03:45

the supper again, mom. And she'll say, some, so and so

Unknown: 00:03:51

needed help. So it's important that we help because they have

Unknown: 00:03:56

so far away from the families.

Unknown: 00:03:59

And you know, we can only be good six if we follow the

Unknown: 00:04:04

teachings of Bill namic.

Unknown: 00:04:06

Who

Unknown: 00:04:09

taught us that always live your life in gratitude. And that

Unknown: 00:04:13

gratitude, then sort of wells up the state of exalted spirit in

Unknown: 00:04:19

you. And that exalted spirit, then you use for the welfare of

Unknown: 00:04:24

the humanity. So only this is an opportunity for us to practice

Unknown: 00:04:29

what we

Unknown: 00:04:31

talk about during the day are saying our prayers, so don't get

Unknown: 00:04:35

anxious.

Unknown: 00:04:37

I will be there and we will you will have your food. And

Unknown: 00:04:43

you know these people when I grew older, they used to write

Unknown: 00:04:46

to my mother from far flung parts of India and saying how

Unknown: 00:04:50

thankful they are how difficult situation for them it was and

Unknown: 00:04:56

some of them even will come back and visit with my

Unknown: 00:05:00

Parents,

Unknown: 00:05:02

which was quite a unique situation, I didn't quite

Unknown: 00:05:05

realize as a child that. But another thing my mother used to

Unknown: 00:05:08

say, you know how these people are far away from the families,

Unknown: 00:05:12

who knows one day, you may be far away from your family

Unknown: 00:05:16

who's going to help, I'm not going to be that. There'll be

Unknown: 00:05:19

somebody like me who may accommodate you to help endured

Unknown: 00:05:23

difficult situations. You know, our override was so true when I

Unknown: 00:05:27

moved from my home to my medical college, from there to other

Unknown: 00:05:32

places, and to England for five years there. And then in United

Unknown: 00:05:35

States since 1971, for last 50 years almost.

Unknown: 00:05:43

I always had somebody helping me, one way or another. And it

Unknown: 00:05:47

always reminded my mother, how important is to live a life of

Unknown: 00:05:52

gratitude, how important it is, it kind of revolves around it.

Unknown: 00:05:59

So someone has to start practicing it, along with

Unknown: 00:06:03

gratitude, forgiveness, don't hold grudges against anyone, if

Unknown: 00:06:07

someone said something

Unknown: 00:06:10

inappropriately, and cause you bad feelings, just let it go.

Unknown: 00:06:16

Because after all, the malware maker, you know, as we are

Unknown: 00:06:20

taught, is not just only made us, he made the whole world,

Unknown: 00:06:26

whole creation, and the maker is present in every aspect of our

Unknown: 00:06:31

life. So even if someone is angry, just say, there's a

Unknown: 00:06:35

lesson to learn from this situation. You don't have to get

Unknown: 00:06:39

into confrontation, bypass it, or forgive and move on in your

Unknown: 00:06:44

life. You know, those were sober lessons. sober lesson didn't

Unknown: 00:06:48

look like very good when I was a child. But as I grew older, I

Unknown: 00:06:53

had my own children, and my own practice, and interacted in

Unknown: 00:06:57

different countries and different people. I thought my

Unknown: 00:07:00

mother, having gone to only five rates of education.

Unknown: 00:07:06

She was a PhD and communication are more than that. And how our

Unknown: 00:07:12

vision was, and how her vision she directly got from her

Unknown: 00:07:16

spiritual upbringing, from the teachings of Ronnie who taught

Unknown: 00:07:20

us that you know, we will remain in gratitude, always, this will

Unknown: 00:07:24

exert exalted your spirits, and then

Unknown: 00:07:28

and use that exalted energy in the service of humanity. And

Unknown: 00:07:33

that's what life is all about. Yes, and it is a universal

Unknown: 00:07:39

language, right? You can see as person as grateful and

Unknown: 00:07:45

appreciative, you don't have to speak the same language, you

Unknown: 00:07:49

will feel it. And those people are usually the people who

Unknown: 00:07:54

receive the most as well. You want to support someone who is

Unknown: 00:08:00

going to be appreciative of your work. And it's just an Yeah,

Unknown: 00:08:06

very incredible thing to learn as a child already and then to

Unknown: 00:08:13

apply it in your youth and during adulthood.

Unknown: 00:08:18

Do you practice like consciously practice gratitude on a daily?

Unknown: 00:08:24

Let's say, do you have a routine in the morning or maybe in the

Unknown: 00:08:28

evening? where you sit down and yeah, practice gratitude?

Unknown: 00:08:36

Well, interesting. That's a good question. The way I started my

Unknown: 00:08:40

morning is, I get up thank God for the good day,

Unknown: 00:08:47

that I slept well.

Unknown: 00:08:50

And I thank him for all the health good health, he has given

Unknown: 00:08:56

family around me the opportunity to learn, be educated

Unknown: 00:09:01

and serve humanity. And I thank him for that by remembering him

Unknown: 00:09:07

in my meditation. And I spend about half an hour on that. And

Unknown: 00:09:12

then I follow with a we have, you know, central place in

Unknown: 00:09:16

Sikhism is called

Unknown: 00:09:19

Golden Temple, Amritsar, in India, they issue a guidance

Unknown: 00:09:23

from there every day,

Unknown: 00:09:26

for us to live life. You know, and I read that and then I

Unknown: 00:09:30

reflect upon that, that what is the guidance that comes and most

Unknown: 00:09:34

of the time it is to reinforce the spirit of gratitude.

Unknown: 00:09:38

Reinforce the spirit of love. It is to reinforce, forgive and

Unknown: 00:09:45

create goodwill. And we always wait for, for whatever gifts you

Unknown: 00:09:50

have, and continue to share with them with each and every one

Unknown: 00:09:54

come in your way. And do not be arrogant and always remember

Unknown: 00:10:00

Your makeup is all in our master of all, and you do in your

Unknown: 00:10:05

makers name all these things, not in my name, or someone else

Unknown: 00:10:09

name. And the maker is maker of each and everything around us.

Unknown: 00:10:14

And so this is our way of being grateful and serving in daily

Unknown: 00:10:20

basis. So I don't plan on serving in any particular way,

Unknown: 00:10:25

but it is a part of my life. Yeah, yeah. And I have one more

Unknown: 00:10:30

question regarding gratitude. Because before we dive into

Unknown: 00:10:34

sharing life lessons with other people,

Unknown: 00:10:39

what would you recommend, like when you are in deep misery when

Unknown: 00:10:44

you are in deep pain?

Unknown: 00:10:47

money issues, or like the weather is really affecting the

Unknown: 00:10:53

crop of a lot of agriculture people here in Canada right now?

Unknown: 00:10:59

Like when you are in deep distress? Can you still practice

Unknown: 00:11:04

gratitude? Or is there something better? Like, can you? I know,

Unknown: 00:11:09

some people say, Oh, be grateful for the lesson you will be

Unknown: 00:11:12

learning during those stressful times. But I feel when you are

Unknown: 00:11:16

in deep stress, it is very tough to think about gratitude. Can

Unknown: 00:11:20

you share your thoughts on that?

Unknown: 00:11:23

That's a wonderful question.

Unknown: 00:11:27

That's another thing

Unknown: 00:11:29

about which we get that this guidance, and the scripture we

Unknown: 00:11:34

follow is called deliverance.

Unknown: 00:11:37

And it is full of those things. One of the hams comes like this,

Unknown: 00:11:41

oh, God saved this burning, or whichever way it is possible. We

Unknown: 00:11:44

all your children, we need such and such things. But you are the

Unknown: 00:11:50

one who knows what is best for us. So please grant our request.

Unknown: 00:11:54

And

Unknown: 00:11:56

if that is in accordance with your divine well and part of the

Unknown: 00:12:01

Divine play, and help us to understand and go through all

Unknown: 00:12:05

these situation with couraging, even if,

Unknown: 00:12:11

you know situation doesn't appear that great right now. But

Unknown: 00:12:15

help us to keep you in our mind all the time. And remember,

Unknown: 00:12:19

overall, and in the long run, you have good

Unknown: 00:12:24

in your mind for all immigration, including myself

Unknown: 00:12:27

and my family. So this is how I approach the situation. That's

Unknown: 00:12:31

how we were taught as my mother and father to do that. And

Unknown: 00:12:36

that's what I found it in a practical way, like, one time.

Unknown: 00:12:42

And this is many, many years ago, I accidentally ran into the

Unknown: 00:12:45

St. Francis prayer, where he says on the odd Wakeman

Unknown: 00:12:49

instrument of peace, which is really the whole prayer is about

Unknown: 00:12:52

gratitude. Instead of saying Me, me, me and I are what can you do

Unknown: 00:12:57

for other people no matter what the situation maybe then. And

Unknown: 00:13:02

there's always something like in my particular case, I am a

Unknown: 00:13:06

physician and I have written prescription that's my skill,

Unknown: 00:13:11

diagnose and allied prescription. I've done the free

Unknown: 00:13:14

of charge numerous times. And I feel grateful that I'm able to

Unknown: 00:13:19

do so and help someone who's not able to do that. And also remind

Unknown: 00:13:23

me you know, you know any anything for me, don't worry

Unknown: 00:13:27

that you need to pay me anything about that. You'll do some good

Unknown: 00:13:31

some somebody else. So that our sense of gratitude, spreads

Unknown: 00:13:36

around and help seizure we all parcel the same creation. We are

Unknown: 00:13:41

all branches of the same tree. We just need to cooperate and

Unknown: 00:13:46

appreciate each other.

Unknown: 00:13:49

This is such a beautiful lesson I'm learning here. Thank you so

Unknown: 00:13:53

much for sharing your thoughts on that. And then when it comes

Unknown: 00:13:57

to lessons that we learn in life, enlightening moments, I

Unknown: 00:14:04

feel sometimes people tend to not share with people they think

Unknown: 00:14:10

okay, I learned my lesson I was in this specific situation, and

Unknown: 00:14:15

I'm feeling better now.

Unknown: 00:14:18

They might share with close friends but they don't tend to

Unknown: 00:14:22

share too much with with strangers or with acquaintances.

Unknown: 00:14:28

Can we talk about the importance of sharing life lessons

Unknown: 00:14:35

with other people?

Unknown: 00:14:38

I think it is very important to do that. You know, just like I

Unknown: 00:14:41

told you the example for my mother or she did.

Unknown: 00:14:46

And I taught those kinds of things with my, my children and

Unknown: 00:14:51

grandchildren. And even in my practice I've shared with people

Unknown: 00:14:55

about those things. You know, people say that I like this. I

Unknown: 00:15:00

don't have that and you know, blame others for the problems.

Unknown: 00:15:04

No, we don't need to blame anyone, we need to learn to

Unknown: 00:15:07

improvise things. Like for example, growing up, I was a

Unknown: 00:15:11

hyperactive child, you know, my mother, the way she dealt with

Unknown: 00:15:15

my situation was, she will

Unknown: 00:15:19

use ash, even in India we make fire with from the word and then

Unknown: 00:15:24

use that ash. This is talking about

Unknown: 00:15:28

70 years ago, when I was

Unknown: 00:15:31

a little kid, she will have half the ash spread on the floor. And

Unknown: 00:15:35

the other half she will use to scrub the utensils, you know, in

Unknown: 00:15:39

which we are eaten. And we didn't have soap. And so by that

Unknown: 00:15:42

time,

Unknown: 00:15:44

so

Unknown: 00:15:46

she'll on that she's like the alphabet. And then she'll tell

Unknown: 00:15:50

me where my finger to trace that. This is how I learned my

Unknown: 00:15:53

alphabet on that ash. And on that ash, I learned how to do

Unknown: 00:15:57

123 numbers on that, as she taught me how to add,

Unknown: 00:16:02

multiplies, divide and all those things. We didn't have a slide,

Unknown: 00:16:06

we didn't have any papers, anything just on their ash. With

Unknown: 00:16:10

my mother's help, I learned gather all that elementary

Unknown: 00:16:13

education. And on that, she taught me what I she she used to

Unknown: 00:16:20

have an old workbook from which I read, she taught me how to

Unknown: 00:16:24

read our prayer books and everything you know, I learned

Unknown: 00:16:28

at home from my mother while she was working. And this is how she

Unknown: 00:16:33

engaged my attention.

Unknown: 00:16:36

So where there is a well there is a way Yeah, like the same

Unknown: 00:16:40

Necessity is the mother of invention. So we should not keep

Unknown: 00:16:43

blaming others. But we should look at the resources like that

Unknown: 00:16:47

thirsty grow. You know, the example when when will he read I

Unknown: 00:16:51

think is an Aesop's Fables that how he will thirsty and how he

Unknown: 00:16:55

is wondering what to do. And suddenly his eyes go on a

Unknown: 00:17:00

journey. But the water is right on the bottom. He doesn't know

Unknown: 00:17:03

he doesn't have a long enough me to drink it. So he saw a bunch

Unknown: 00:17:08

of pebbles. He went one by one he brought the end and the water

Unknown: 00:17:12

rose up and he was able to purchase this. It's not a matter

Unknown: 00:17:16

of truth or untruth of the story is the lesson which is important

Unknown: 00:17:20

to learn from there, that when we pray, seek help, new insights

Unknown: 00:17:26

appear in my mind, we implement them and help them to learn and

Unknown: 00:17:31

grow and move on in our lives. And like that there are so many

Unknown: 00:17:35

stories in these books, you know, so fables and you name it

Unknown: 00:17:38

all, even nursery rhymes.

Unknown: 00:17:42

You know when you say Humpty Dumpty sat on a

Unknown: 00:17:48

foot of God than him itself, but what are they talking about is

Unknown: 00:17:52

how the proud person you know when he's Eru and and i think

Unknown: 00:17:57

like they're, they fall to pieces, you know, still there

Unknown: 00:17:59

are people who are kind enough to put them together. Even the

Unknown: 00:18:03

wonder in the sky, Twinkle, twinkle little star, looking at

Unknown: 00:18:07

all those things, they have wonderful lesson that how around

Unknown: 00:18:10

us, there's a beauty around us nature around we can reflect

Unknown: 00:18:14

even if you're hurting, are we short of money, and still we can

Unknown: 00:18:18

have joyful things

Unknown: 00:18:21

coming out of

Unknown: 00:18:23

this realisation Yeah, and what I'm learning right now with you

Unknown: 00:18:27

is that when we have that mind of, or heart open for gratitude,

Unknown: 00:18:35

and willing to see a lesson instead of a punishment, then

Unknown: 00:18:40

also creativity can flow then you can come up with ideas and

Unknown: 00:18:47

and find solutions. You're not stuck in the negative and like

Unknown: 00:18:52

hitting your head against a wall. You are open and you're

Unknown: 00:18:56

there to learn. And you see possibilities instead of

Unknown: 00:19:03

pain and suffering and you're trying to rise above the

Unknown: 00:19:09

stressful situation and

Unknown: 00:19:13

find solutions. Yeah, and your mom like oh my god, I was gonna

Unknown: 00:19:17

cry. It is so beautiful. She was able to channel your your

Unknown: 00:19:22

hyperactive energy into using your brain and learning

Unknown: 00:19:28

something new. Instead of punishing you for being

Unknown: 00:19:32

hyperactive. She knew exactly that. You can you can channel

Unknown: 00:19:36

this energy and create something with it. And this is like a

Unknown: 00:19:42

very, very beautiful little story that you shared with us

Unknown: 00:19:46

there.

Unknown: 00:19:48

Thank you as she was I was eternally grateful to her. The

Unknown: 00:19:53

older I got, the more appreciation I developed my

Unknown: 00:19:57

mother's ingenuity and the way she

Unknown: 00:20:00

He did things with me. And I used to point out to her she

Unknown: 00:20:04

used to say, son, I don't remember, I don't remember

Unknown: 00:20:07

anymore. She was like 97 years old when she passed away in DC.

Unknown: 00:20:10

Surely, my younger brother is a mother, you don't remember why I

Unknown: 00:20:14

do. I wouldn't be the way I am. If you hadn't put all your

Unknown: 00:20:21

love and affection and care and teaching in me, you grown me.

Unknown: 00:20:26

And then I use those skills to help my siblings pass down to

Unknown: 00:20:30

them. Yeah, yeah. And to my friends and neighbors and other

Unknown: 00:20:34

people. And in my practice, when I became a professional, I said,

Unknown: 00:20:37

source of all is you.

Unknown: 00:20:41

I use your data.

Unknown: 00:20:43

This is so beautiful. I met a person the other day, and this

Unknown: 00:20:47

person went through a lot of pain, health struggles,

Unknown: 00:20:54

in her life, and I feel she has a hard time. Like now she's

Unknown: 00:21:00

she's very wise and takes really good care of her body and is

Unknown: 00:21:04

very healthy. But all the lessons that she learned along

Unknown: 00:21:08

her way, she has a hard time to share with people and I feel

Unknown: 00:21:12

sometimes we went through so much pain, so much suffering

Unknown: 00:21:18

that we see other people have it better.

Unknown: 00:21:21

People are not suffering like we do. And we have the tools, we

Unknown: 00:21:26

have the ability to make them suffer less. But we think they

Unknown: 00:21:33

have to learn it themselves. And I have a problem with that.

Unknown: 00:21:37

Because I feel if I have the wisdom, if I have the tools,

Unknown: 00:21:43

then I should give it to the other person and not judge if

Unknown: 00:21:48

they have an easier or not. Do you understand? say, Yeah, I do.

Unknown: 00:21:54

And I concur with you. And I, you know, our disabilities are a

Unknown: 00:21:59

blessing in disguise to like, for example, I not only had that

Unknown: 00:22:03

hyperactivity problem, I had other problems too. Like, for

Unknown: 00:22:07

example, I have a cell poor sense of orientation. When the

Unknown: 00:22:10

GPS game, there was a great blessing for me, I I used to get

Unknown: 00:22:14

lost with my directions. And then I had a problem with my

Unknown: 00:22:20

right and left, you know, orientation. And I have a color

Unknown: 00:22:25

blindness, but all those things, although they seem shortcoming

Unknown: 00:22:29

on the surface, but they were actually really blessings for

Unknown: 00:22:33

me, when I look back into them. You know, what kind of blessings

Unknown: 00:22:37

it made me ask people for help. It made gave me that courage

Unknown: 00:22:43

instead of it being withdrawn and,

Unknown: 00:22:47

and grieve about it. I will say, you know, I don't understand,

Unknown: 00:22:50

could you guide me here, please. And I guided the same way other

Unknown: 00:22:54

people when opportunity came and all that because someone else

Unknown: 00:22:58

had helped me too. So in other words, you know, we can rule out

Unknown: 00:23:03

our short circuit by calling them shortcomings, shortcomings,

Unknown: 00:23:06

or we can say this is the way it is. That's the reality. But it

Unknown: 00:23:10

doesn't have to stay that way, we can modify the situation by

Unknown: 00:23:16

mustering courage. And by using the God given skills to us to

Unknown: 00:23:20

move on in our lives. You know, like a child is born with a

Unknown: 00:23:24

harelip, or with some kind of deformities. Well,

Unknown: 00:23:30

we don't know why this happened. And all all kinds of theories

Unknown: 00:23:33

are there, for what we know is that child needs help. So

Unknown: 00:23:37

there's all kinds of help available, including surgery, if

Unknown: 00:23:41

necessary to fix their problems. But there was a time that

Unknown: 00:23:45

nothing was available when I started my career as a

Unknown: 00:23:48

physician, but later on so many developments take place and all

Unknown: 00:23:53

that. So if we continue to move on instead of brooding over why

Unknown: 00:23:58

it happened. But as we start

Unknown: 00:24:01

to learn less, the reality is how to fix it and move on, then

Unknown: 00:24:06

we can improve the society change the world. Because no one

Unknown: 00:24:10

knows answers for everything. We do know, certain things need to

Unknown: 00:24:14

be fixed. Instead of waiting somewhere else to do, why don't

Unknown: 00:24:18

I started my level

Unknown: 00:24:21

and then have more resources to do it, and encourage others to

Unknown: 00:24:24

do it. That's the philosophy of life.

Unknown: 00:24:28

And that, again, comes from my spiritual background with Guru

Unknown: 00:24:31

Nanak. You know where he's always emphasized. He said,

Unknown: 00:24:34

doesn't matter what your religion is, you know, you can

Unknown: 00:24:37

be anything. He said, your actions speak louder than the

Unknown: 00:24:40

words and the simple word and you can call yourself whatever

Unknown: 00:24:46

you want. But that's just a verbal situation. You have to

Unknown: 00:24:50

move on further. You can call that I love God with everything

Unknown: 00:24:54

and all that but where is the Lord you don't see him. You

Unknown: 00:24:56

don't. You are God's creation when we're connected.

Unknown: 00:25:00

Whichever way you like, whether you're gardening or whether

Unknown: 00:25:03

helping whatever. So he said you action actions is the one which

Unknown: 00:25:08

is going to make a difference in your life, not just

Unknown: 00:25:13

being paranoid or talking about I don't have this and that.

Unknown: 00:25:19

And this is so beautiful and, and critical to hear for many,

Unknown: 00:25:24

many people, I mean COVID the whole pandemic, like brought so

Unknown: 00:25:29

much pain and misery and to the world and to see that they can

Unknown: 00:25:33

be good coming out of this, and there can be solutions found and

Unknown: 00:25:41

new career communities created. And I really like how you, you

Unknown: 00:25:48

look at your perspective on life and love. It is very inspiring.

Unknown: 00:25:55

I have one last question for you.

Unknown: 00:25:58

If

Unknown: 00:26:00

all your work, all our videos here were to be deleted. And

Unknown: 00:26:07

it's your last day of your life and you have a piece of paper

Unknown: 00:26:10

and a pen. What would be

Unknown: 00:26:16

the words that you want to or the lessons or the wisdom that

Unknown: 00:26:21

you would like to share

Unknown: 00:26:24

with the world, before you leave.

Unknown: 00:26:29

I will say thank you for this life of my maker.

Unknown: 00:26:34

And thank you for being part of your creation and opportunity to

Unknown: 00:26:38

parties participate in this cosmic play.

Unknown: 00:26:42

And all the gifts you have given to me, you have made it possible

Unknown: 00:26:48

for me to use to help myself, my family and the people around. So

Unknown: 00:26:53

I'm very grateful and rest of my life, whatever is left, please

Unknown: 00:26:57

continue the same blessing on. So they live in this world.

Unknown: 00:27:02

In gratitude to you and to the society in which I've been

Unknown: 00:27:06

raised, doing something for them, instead of just living for

Unknown: 00:27:10

me.

Unknown: 00:27:13

This is so beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing your deep

Unknown: 00:27:21

wisdom with us here and for making the time and it's it's

Unknown: 00:27:27

very inspiring for people to hear what you have to say

Unknown: 00:27:32

because we can apply it right away. We don't have to, we can

Unknown: 00:27:37

buy books and read about gratitude. But we can apply it

Unknown: 00:27:42

right now right here and our lives, with our family, with our

Unknown: 00:27:47

friends with strangers. And I love the simplicity and I love

Unknown: 00:27:53

how easy it is and easily accessible and how we can feel

Unknown: 00:28:00

it comes from the heart. Your message comes from the heart. So

Unknown: 00:28:04

deep gratitude for you here my friend, thank you for being

Unknown: 00:28:08

here. And

Unknown: 00:28:10

I feel we will do a new episode here sometime soon in the summer

Unknown: 00:28:16

or maybe in fall.

Unknown: 00:28:19

Thank you for the chance to

Unknown: 00:28:22

have a conversation with you and be able to reach to your

Unknown: 00:28:27

audience. For me, gratefulness, gratitude is the key to personal

Unknown: 00:28:33

satisfaction and good life and to perpetuate it that way. Thank
