#39 Help a stranger

It has been a busy few weeks for me! I'm stage managing a show, that will be opening in two weeks. It's called "I love you, you're perfect, now change" and it being put on by my friends at Ray of Light Theatre (www.roltheatre.com) for more information!

I was on the T Train Tuesday morning, and especially tired...most likely because of rehearsals. I've pretty much stopped reading on my commutes and have started sleeping on the train, well at least closing my eyes and tuning out the world...or trying to.

There was a woman on the train that was looking for an elementary school. She went up and asked the driver where it was, and he didn't know. He made an announcement on the train asking if anyone knew where it was. No one did. The woman was going to be a substitute teacher for this school, and it was her first time working at this particular location. I then remembered a handy feature on my phone called live search. I found the school, pulled up a map and was able to tell her which bus to take and where to get off the train. We chatted for the rest of the trip, and it turns out she used to teach college level theatre. It's a small world.

I'm marking this item as complete. I didn't change the world, but I'd like to think that random acts of kindness can have a rippling effect.

#22 Take the Landmark Forum

I don't really know where to start with this one. I found out about Landmark Education through Aaron who was turned onto it from Michael. Aaron took the forum in November and invited me to his completion night. I was interested in it, and signed up.

Now fast forward to December. I'm scheduled to take the forum, but instead get emergency oral surgery. They have a rule about no drugs, drinking and whatnot, so I rescheduled.

Fast forward to Friday. I walked in the room about 8:45 and was a little skeptical. I'd read things about cult like behaviors, brainwashing, them leaving people in pieces, etc. I had told Aaron I'd stick it out till Sunday at the very least. Then it all began.

Over this last weekend I have had one of the most profound experiences of my Life. That is really all I can say about it. It's very hard to describe what it was like emotionally for me this weekend. Roller-coaster comes to mind. Some great some not so great, but regardless I walked out of there with a different prospective of life.

I'm glad I went through it, and have signed up for the advance course, as well as the Forum in Action Seminar.

I've seen a noticeable difference in my life. I have a brighter outlook and really feel that anything is possible if I create it.

At the end we had to declare the possibilities that we were going to create for ourselves. I'm creating the possibility of being someone who is happy, loved and fully expressed.

If anyone has questions about The Forum, I'd be happy to go into more detail with you personally!
