The Big D joined us here in DC this week and wrote a spectacular piece for the Outlook section of the Post. One of his lines was "on message": suggesting that reverence for the "oneness of humanity" is the key to peaceful solutions to a number of current ills. I was interested that he spent some of his time here at the Humane Society bowing to dogs and wowing the rest of us.
I find it comforting that one, it finally rained here after 35 odd days of eerily clear days of draught and two, that the US common citizen is drawn to a figure as gentle as the Dalai Lama. So many of the US brand of celebs grab our attention for the wrong reasons: sex appeal, money, blatantly immoral behavior. YOu know the list.
So we are all basking the showers of missed inches of much needed rain water and the gracious radiance of such a significant man as the Dalai Lama. Maybe he should stop in on our folks in San Diego.
