Dear brother Punnu
Goodness me. I don't think I have ever been happier. I don't mean the kind that tip toes on the surface responding to external circumstances. But a happiness that grows from deep within. One that does not rise and fall with changing situations but is always there growing taller, stronger and wider with every experience.
It was the appreciation that 'awareness' is the root of so much that really invited the shift and I am so enormously grateful to you for showing that to me. Thank you.
It seems so second rate to try to convey how I feel with the tap of my fingers on a keyboard but please please allow the essence of these words to filter off the screen to your heart.
Gratitude and love flows towards you brother.
You have once again pointed the way and given me the tools to travel further. That is such a gift. Thank you.
I...along with Jo, Maddie who is now living in Doha, and Nico who is now living in Rwanda...send you love.
The hug when I see you next is going to set the world alight.....
With immeasurable gratitude
Jack
