Hello David,

Many thanks, as always, for your guidance. I've recently been struggling with 'the best' way to help a homeless person. I've realized that the best way isn't about what is done, but the intention behind it. If my actions aren't perfect, it's ok. It's what is in my heart that matters. Not only has this taken the pressure off of me, it allows me to help in numerous ways...physically through sharing food, and spiritually through offering mantras to relieve suffering. The mantras give me peace as well.

I don't know how I would have gotten to this frame of mind without discovering The Dalai Lama's Cat series. The attraction was of course HHC and my love of cats. But your books turned out to a pivotal resource to me. They are little subtle seeds that planted the foundation for where I am today.

I'm currently reading Instant Karma, and I'm enjoying it. Thank you for all that you give. I'm grateful to be on the receiving end.

May you be free from suffering, and the causes of suffering.

Warm regards,

Stacey
