So I was sitting down at Starbucks writing my my third book, siting outside, when a woman asked if she could sit at my table and wait for a client to arrive, I said, \u201cSure\u201d.\u00a0 She took a seat and put her big clip board sprinkled with notes on the table, and checked her phone three or four times as I wrote.\u00a0 I continued to type, and then she took out a cigarette and began to smoke.\u00a0 I took a break from writing and asked how she was, and the small talk continued and then went back to silence.<\/p>\n
So we sat there as the cars rushed by on Beverly Blvd and I asked, \u201cWhat kind of work do you do?\u201d, she explained, \u201cDesigner for bars and such\u201d then looked at her phone, \u201cSorry mate my client is late and I it is frustrating.\u201d\u00a0 And so I went back into writing and as I was writing, she asked what I did, \u2018Many things but I have a book out and speak on the feminine heart.\u201d She gasped in shock and then replied, \u201cWhat makes you an expert?\u201d\u00a0 I laughed out loud or LOL.\u00a0 She was not laughing, \u201cWell what makes you an expert?\u201d<\/p>\n
I replied, \u201cMy life, my book, working with people, speaking with groups, listening to my breath, listening, lots of things.\u201d A moment of thinking from her end, \u201cThat\u2019s good mate\u2026good to meet good men who are living it.\u201d\u00a0 I smiled, \u201cWell we are all learning.\u201d<\/p>\n
She smiled, \u201cYep I am learning not to get upset right now. What is your book about? What is it called?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Book Of Light: The Heart Opening, its about the heart and freedom\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSounds lovely\u2026alright mate\u2026need to leave all the hipsters and call my client.\u201d<\/p>\n
Splice of life\u2026.<\/p>\n
