hello, dolly!

Well hello, Dolly Dalai!

On May 7th His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama spoke at the University of Maryland. The Turkey and I were lucky enough to score fab seats for the occasion.

Fuzzy cell phone image. Proof that I was there. 



Ah! Much better! This was taken by my friend Mike Morgan of www.mikemorganphoto.com 

Click here if you want to see the professional video and the Cute One they call the Dalai Lama. The first part of the video is mostly photos. He starts talking around 37:00. He was funny and endearing, and his message of love and peace and hope for all was truly remarkable. (It sounds easy, doesn't it? That love and peace and hope thing. Funny how it takes a celebrity monk to remind us of that from time to time.)

This was taken after the event. Doesn't he look handsome?!


I've met and worked with and heard a lot of famous folk speak over the years. This Dolly Dalai was probably one of the most inspiring and heartwarming. It was truly a memorable and awesome occasion for us. Go and listen to his speech. Really. Do it. Watch and listen. You won't regret it.

Peace, peeps!
