META. KARUNA. SHAHANA . . . Kindness.
Compassion. Tolerance. A familiar mantra. Even
though it may not be "your" mantra, I believe each of
you has embraced the essence of Shahana. So,
today I would like to acknowledge the tolerance I am
so very grateful of. I want you to know, I notice. Not
once have any of you complained about . . . the broken
door, broken toilet, noisy smog check, cold mornings,
hot evenings, pot smoke residue, ants, . . . not once
have I heard a complaint. I appreciate you, loyal
students, I appreciate your kind hearts,
compassionate voices and tolerant minds. As we
move to the new location, know that each detail has
been planned to ensure your comfort and afford you a
space worthy of your beautiful souls.
It is thus tolerance that is the source of peace . . .
Pierre Bayle
Namaste, Susan
