about life

during my participation at Jornada I realized how the so-called famous and important people can be as simple as any other so-called mortal! I got to talk to some guys from that famous circle...I dare say...and despite all their knowledge and many times brilliant thoughts..they're people..humans with fears and worries...missing their children..worried about relatives' health..they've won things..they've lost things....just like anybody else....and all these made me think how great one can be in life..if he/she wishes so...and still do not lose all the kindness in the heart...this sounds a little like a self-help book....but I liked it...sometimes it is necessary to realize that the changes are really in one's hands....not in other people's ones...
