the seminar

The seminar at the Hilton was such fun. John briefly reviewed the notes taken by Chalora:

* James Ray

* Drinks wine

* Says action words like ‘pow’

* Makes people raise hand always

* Bad words 7

* Coke is bad

* Likes rock music

* Lets us yell

* Made fart noise

* Startled us 3 times


Afterwards, they ate at a local McDonalds and went home. The next day John received a phone call from his brother Tariku. They discussed the potentials of the human soul. The conversation quickly focused on the role of each human being supporting the other as an uplifter. This involved the act of praying, not only in the traditional sense, but also included setting positive intentions for first the uplifter and everyone else he or she knows. This state of being is especially important with young individuals.


An image of Carmona, Chalora and Caleb came to John’s mind. He wanted to continue sending positive thoughts to his children, and serve as a role model. A role model who was proud to be their friend, father and fellow human being.
