William's Story
Hello Everybody,
On Sunday, October 23, 2022, for about 20 minutes, I had the most amazing experience. The fall colors came alive, my back pain almost completely left me, and my ambient stress (which I never even realized I had) in my arms was absolutely gone! It was so overwhelmingly magnificent, I even wept at one point. It occurred to me that this is what Buddha must have meant when he said "Be the change that you seek." It's really true. This is how it has to happen--from the inside out. I'm convinced that if everybody on the planet felt this for even 5 minutes, forget 20, drug abuse worldwide would virtually evaporate overnight. Wars, starvation, violent crime, and abortion would slowly dry up because the circumstances and mindset leading up to them would go away.
Learning languages (or anything else for tha...Expand for more
t matter) should be fun, right? Well, I'm kicking off an interactive language learning idea where I would facilitate a group of people learning Spanish through Duolingo and SpanishDict (and possibly other sources as well). These are apps that throw random exercises and dialog at you, so you never get the same experience twice. Plus, since I am learning right along with them, the atmosphere will get even livelier, given that I tend to get very animated when I find out if I am right or wrong. If this catches on, I plan to start charging for the service, but for now, it's free of charge. If interested, write me on this app. I would love to expand that idea even farther and have interactive learning of various job skills as well, maybe call it Hands On Living, LLC, or something. Anyway, have a blast and talk to you soon!
