Day 34. May 15. Sunday.

I’d been feeling a little bad that I was staying in Truro a day too long and therefore had to miss the first day of the Three Principles/Innate Health/Tikun conference (because since I am not a main speaker I am not given a place to stay), but last night it became clear why it needed to happen that way. I had such a deep, meaningful, potent conversation with Sylvie last night (which actually started yesterday afternoon) that I think may have really helped her life, and that would not have happened if I’d left yesterday. I wouldn’t have traded it; that’s where I was meant to be.

In the morning I realized I’d gotten behind in planning travel arrangements for my very ambitious schedule for the rest of my trip, and I didn’t realize the cost of flights in Europe at this time of year go up daily. That doesn’t happen in the States. I’m learning the hard way. So I was having trouble finding a reasonable cost flight to Copenhagen from London. I also had to get my train & tube schedule timing and my pick-up arrangements set for getting to St. Albans today. Before I knew it the time got away from me and I had to rush out the door to catch my train, without accomplishing what I needed to. Not good, Jack. Sylvie told me I needed to stop, and she was right.

On my first European Tour I had everything planned to the letter. Now that I’m used to European travel I’ve gotten more relaxed and cavalier about it (read cocky), and I’m finding the first, more organized way is far better on the thought-nerves. Remember, Jack, it‘s all an illusion.

So, Sylvie took me to the train station—thanks to her I had a great time in Cornwall—and I took the 5 hr. train ride to Paddington, where I then made a switch to the tube and then switched onto another train to St. Albans station where Chantal’s husband, Andy picked me up. After Chantal returned from the first day of the conference we went out to a great Thai food dinner with Natasha and husband from Denmark. Wow, has she come a long way from when we first met two years ago. She coauthored a book with Dicken Bettinger, which just came out. So many Three Principles books have come out in the last few months. I will read this one.

Before we left for dinner, relaxed I accomplished arranging my Denmark flight as if it was nothing, when I couldn’t even figure it out this morning. Ahh, the state of a relaxed mind accomplishes miracles.
