I am very lucky to have happened to have met and became friends with the astrologist, author, pianist and artist Gary Goldschneider a year ago. If you don’t know him, search for “The Secret Language of Birthdays”, “The Secret Language of Relationships” and many more. His latest book is “Meditations and Illustrations”.
While discussing life and music and birthdays at one ‘team building lunch’ after all of us at Paul Penders International have successfully launched his first leg of 2 charity classical concerts last year on Langkawi, Malaysia, Gary said “Why music is so beautiful? What made of it?”. Nearly all of each of 11 of us gave answers, but nobody got the right one. He said “It’s the silent, silent makes music and makes it sounds and makes it being heard and being (able to be) appreciated so beautifully”. (Oh yes, I remembered hearing him so much better after everyone stopped chatting and stopped using cutlery.)
more chances to crack a smile?
And after telling us the signs, the stars, the universe, the East and the West, Gary went on to “What is rich meaning to you?” and so on until we discussed “stereotyping” as well which was fun, quite a few of us had got a lot to say, so typically it was women! It was really fun when Gary discussed birthdays of which I was said to be the one with many secrets(!), an enigma. Back then I didn’t have a chance to look up on his book and I have now, I was like “Wow, wow”, and really didn’t want to share the reading with anyone because it said so much about me.
Anyway, that day what has imprinted on my mind was Gary’s answer on his own question “What does happiness mean to you?”. Everybody was stopping the German steak burger (king) that my colleague Gitty and her husband had home made. Everybody said something, and Gary said “Less unhappiness it is”. The possibility of happiness becomes much more, and so it allows you to enter the subconscious of ‘being happy’ mind so much easier and you know it.
Finding it hard to smile because there’s something on your mind, and there’s a lot on your share of life that won’t let you to be ridden of that frown? No need to find the expensive happiness or sought for lousy easiness, just think less ‘miserable’ and being less ‘difficult’, just less than it is now, I guess you might be able to crack one or many of your beautiful smiles! 🙂
