I tried googling Mrs. Susan George recently and found her. She teaches in a school in Delhi - or is headmistress or principal there. I knew it was her and not someone with the same name because the picture was of her. I wanted to see if I could get in touch with her. To thank her. For having picked out Richard Bach's Illusions to give as a prize to the person who won the high-school elocution contest one year at IPCL school. It has always been one of my very favorite books - and my introduction to New Age. And for being such a great teacher - the only good one I had at that school and one of the best I'd ever had. And she was the only teacher I thought (rightly so) that I would miss when I moved on to my next school. But there was no contact email. I'm sure I can find a number for the school if I really want to and get in touch with her. But that would be weird. So, here's the alternative. Maybe she'll do an ego search and find herself here, on this page, and then she'll know.
"The mark of your ignorance is the depth of your belief in injustice and tragedy. What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly." - from Illusions.

Hi, Sudha! I loved Illusions, too. How cool that you won the book in an elocution contest! A very well-spoken individual, even as a school-girl! The book made so much sense to me that life is like a movie. It makes it easier for me to let go of small stuff and sometimes big stuff, knowing that it's just the scenery, not the essence. This is being written with March Madness college basketball, intermingled with the Rachel Maddow Show emanating from the TV upstairs. So I'm having trouble following my train of thought. But it feels fabulous to be connecting with you and your thoughts and activities through the blog. Hugs. Marybeth
