LIVE. LAUGH. LOVE.

When I was Managing Director of a major pharmaceutical company in Africa, we used to go to London for our annual presentation, my finance director, a man of deep spiritual quality and I were chatting in the lobby and I was recounting the days I ran a project in the Congo for malnourished children, everyday I would work in the health centers interviewing mothers and their children. One day a child was brought in with a congenital heart disease that accelerated her heart beat, the tiny child, beautiful like an angel stood there, sweating,her heart hammering and I knew there was nothing I could do but hold her, I held her trembling body trying to give her some of my strength and love, but the next day she died. I cried when I recounted this story but my colleague Matthias said something wonderful to me, "Sir, you know the love you gave that child became light and that light led her to the path to heaven and a better place.." And I knew there, here in this magnificent lobby of a London hotel, that I had found light where I least expected to find it.
