The other day I had coffee with Emile. He is a kindly gentleman who has had many walks in life. One thing about Emile is that he keeps learning. You see, Emile is 87 years old. He told me that he never learned to read music. So at 76 he decided that it was time. He joined a fiddlers group, learned to read music and play the fiddle. He now jams once a week with his 35 member fiddler group and, from time to time they venture out into the community and entertain others. Oh yes, Emile also reads a lot and is very current with today's world events. So, here's to Emile and here is another short encounter that proves once again that you are never too old to keep on learning.

Julech is an interesting character who came to me one morning and asked,
"Do you know who I am?" "No I don't, I never met you before," I responded. "Really, are you sure?" "Yes, I'm sure." Responding once again. "Well, I am the person who journey's through life seeking wisdom. I'm every person, man, woman or child, who seeks the truth and searches their heart for peace, forgiveness and love and when they find it, they give what they have found to others at no charge." "Wow!" I was awe struck. "Can you tell me more?" I asked. "Who are you?" Julech replied. What a question, not "what are you?" or "What do you do?" but, "Who are you?" I think we will be hearing more from Julech in the future. |
