giving credit where credit is due

the esoterics of ladytao

I would like to give credit where credit is due,
my dearest friend: humble student to you I dedicate this
i told you in passing over lunch how much and how far you have grow in the short time we have become teacher and student.
i praised you at a time when you needed to be praised because you felt your world was falling down around you.
i know that in order to move forward it sometimes feels as if we are moving backward. but you stayed strong to your new found beliefs and made them work for you and in doing so it has made you stronger, wiser, and more Understanding of your circumstances. you know as i do that learning is not something you learn when your young and either decide to take with you and incorporate it in your life somewhere down the line, but a life long path.
to this i bow my head and praise you.
you said something the other day that has stuck with me and to this I have to say thank you
because once again you have made me the student,
your profound statement you stated to me of having actually "lived life day by day, and not just live each day" touched my heart.
thank you again, because your right we must always live each day as if it were our last, to know that when you place your head on your pillow at night to close your eyes as well as your day that you have actually felt the day and you lived life today.
that my friend is what Life is all about.
