Guest guest Posted November 16, 2002 Report Share Posted November 16, 2002 That's fascinating information, John! Are you a chemist? My dear, long-departed father had a great love for anything made with coconut. Now that I've met Amma, I like to think it meant he had a lifetime or two in Kerala! Here's an Amma story that means a lot to me. For over a year I've had a deep yearning to connect with a friend with whom I'd had a minor falling out about 8 years ago. Since she never called me, I was too afraid of rejection to call her. Well, today, my prayers to Amma about this situation were miraculously answered. I ran into this woman's daughter and had a very loving reunion. She told me that her father (my friend's husband) was very ill and that her mother needed lots of support right now. So I called her immediately and assured her of my love and prayers. I will see her when I return from California. So thanks to Amma for this miracle! I guess there's a serious lesson in this for me too. All this time I was focusing on my own pain, not knowing that my friend had lost a grown son and is now losing her much-loved husband. Instead of wishing she'd be my friend, I could have been thinking about how I could be her friend. So I ask for prayers for Bob and Shirley. Bob has a form of ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease).
