“No matter how badly people treat you, never drop down to their level. Just know you are better and walk away.” We can deal with bad people in many different ways which they depend on the situations we are in, sometimes we can choose ignorance, or keeping silent by putting a smile on the face, or do and say things not in their ways but in ours. ~ Alisar Al Haj Ali None of us are better then the other. Just some of us are in more pain or more dysfunctional then the other. I think if we can take a step back n see things for what they are it makes it less painful. ~ Michelle Hansen Keep your head up and your heart open. Move slowly and gracefully. Accept things for what they are. Find peace and stillness. Be love.

I will tell you what he said about my health at the end, but first read this: Twenty years ago, I arranged to meet a well-known British international businessman who invested a lot in Africa at the time. We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London.  After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby. There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive. He had had a heart attack and had to have triple bypass heart surgery. Sadly he died a few weeks later. He hadn't been sick and his sudden death surprised everyone. And yet as I reflected on it, and later discussed it with a doctor friend who knew him, I realized he was very laid back about his health despite having a hectic business life. Even during our dinner...
