[QUOTE="Mai Harinder Kaur, post: 133131, member: 3558"] Aeon ji, welcome! welcomekaurwelcomekaur I think that you and I are kindred spirits. I grew up in a Sikh home, actually a Khalsa home (although my mother was Catholic and tried to make me into one, too. It didn't work. But that's another story), but there's a lot more to it than that. I've always been a bit of an oddball. Is it possible that hearing one song one time can give direction to life? Yes, it is. When I was 12 or 13, I heard "The Impossible Dream" and knew right then and there that was my life. So I am a slightly - or grossly - crazy lady, no longer young in years, who fancies herself a knight errant. My life is a quest to reach that "far, unattainable sky." wahkaur "It doesn't matter whether you win or lose, as long as you follow the Quest." Spoken by the lovely Sophia Loren. It's more fun to win, though. In the meantime, I am living the best life I know, following Guru ji as best I can. For me, that is following the Khalsa Panth. I have no idea what it is for you; perhaps we can be fellow travellers for a time and then part ways. Or perhaps we can become comrades and then sister and brother. Who knows the future? It is always the right century to be a noble warrior; only the forms change. It is also always the wrong century to be a noble warrior because there are always those who oppose those trying to live a noble life. Ridicule, I have found, is the hardest to bear. Attack me and I will fight. swordfightRidicule me and the best I can do is ignore you.:disguestedkudi: Are you familiar with the Sikh greeting: "Vaheguru ji ka khalsa! Vaheguru ji ki fateh!!
