Be who You Are - With Arms Wide Open

"Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values."  Dalai Lama

A friend studies in India with a noted guru for seven years.  He was an American.  The guru came to him one day and said -"It's time for you to go back to your people." 

But replied lmy firend - "These are my people.  I can't live without your teachings.  I don't know what I would do."

The guru said - "Take in mind all you have learned here and throw it up in the air.  What comes down to you is yours by right of consciousness and will not leave you.

He did and became a spiritual leader to his community.
