The rest of the story...

I've been telling of The Breeze at Dawn poem and where it came from and what it means to me. I've received some questions and am happy to elaborate.

One morning about 9 years ago I went outside our rented house to let our dogs out. There was a piece of paper on the doorstep. White, 8 1/2"x11", folded and a little crinkled and worn. It looked as if it had blown up there where it lay haphazardly against the side of the garage. I do not believe anyone placed it there (we didn't really know any of our neighbors and we lived too far from anyone who would possibly think of putting it there by 7:30am). I believe it was random (in a physical reality sense) yet completely meant for me (in a spiritual sense).

Which leads me to the next question, What else was on the paper? Good question. Here it is:

> When God created, people went to God for every little thing, asking for favors, complaining to him about everything. People would pray for God to come. If he would come they would say, "Don't come now. Come later. You have come too soon." If God didn't come, the pray-er would complain, "I have called you so many times and you have come so late." God grew really tired of this and wanted to go hid somewhere, but this was not easily done. These humans would go to the moon to find God.
At this point God met a wise woman. The wise woman whispered in God's ear "Hide in the heart of humankind. That is where they never go." Since that day, God has hidden in people's hearts. Anyone who goes there will not be able to complain. All complaints will drop away. One person here and there among millions goes to their own heart and finds God. And when that person finds God in their own heart, they have no complaints. < - Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

So now you know, the rest of the story.
