I enjoyed reading this post. I received your last letter too & intend to reply next week after my final exam.
I'm glad you are able to find ways to quiet your mind & find your strength and I also find your realizations of others fascinating. I found it very interesting how others reacted to your obvious change of behavior. I, like you, always have a happy disposition around others, (mostly because I find negativity to be exhausting, it's just easier to be happy) and when I encounter negative people in my travels, I don't take that on, but walk away thinking, hopefully some of my happiness has rubbed off on them. Sharing the reactions others had towards you when you changed your demeanor tells me that they not only expect you to have an upbeat attitude, but also rely on it, perhaps to lift them. We never really know how people feel after they've come into contact with us, we don't usually discuss these things but I think you can take a lot from their reactions and their attempts to 'cheer you up'. I think perhaps many of the people you encounter in a day rely on your positivity. Never underestimate the potential impact you may have on others. Even something as simple as a smile to taking a moment to listen can lift someone's day & I can imagine in there, those moments are more precious than anywhere else!
Thank you for the smile you put on my face today Daniel. I wish you every success with your case as always, & I will write soon.
Thanks for writing! I thought your writing to be very powerful. "There are no war heroes, there are only victims and perpetrators" is so true. It is so sad that more citizens and politicians do not see it this way. Keep writing :) Rosa
