An appreciation email

Subject : True People... I just want to thank you.

Hi Friends :)

I have always been trying to find out what made me like my 1E friends so much more than my 2E ones. I guess it all boils down to two things I find very important, Respect and Kind Words.

My 1E friends respect me a lot :) And I can get away with doing irritating things to them (and btw, sorry Terence for stealing your water bottle). They respect me as a leader, and I Love them a lot too. They listen to instructions most of the time, and they don't irritate me.

We are able to work together well as a team. We do not put each other down, especially when one has slipped up. Compare this with the people from 2E. If I do not know a Japanese word, they might say, 'I thought your Jap very good one'. Sacarsm, even when they may be joking, I do not appreciate. Its what makes people so afraid to be different, or stick to the rules of the group. Or they try not to look stupid or out of place. In the end, they always look more stupid than ever.

We do not have a different no. of friends, both the 2e boys and the 1e boys. But, the quality of life is very much different. The 2e people study so much, sleep so late. But will they really be successful in life? That remains a question. However, the 1e boys generally sleep early, or they spend their time playing. Like I spend my time reading and writing. If we sleep late, we sleep late because we do things we enjoy. I love reading about (Chaos) Magick, Astral Planes, Psychics, HoloCreation etc. and writing about it. I don't mind sleeping late. Cos I enjoy doing these things.

I consider living a generally comfortable life and being able to do what you want a Success in Life. Not having riches. What do you think?

I am planning on starting an internet company. I am confident of being able to reach my goal of earning $80, 000 a month (of course it will have to be shared with the rest). If I hire people, I am not looking for those boys in 2e. Hey, they may have higher qualifications, but I trust my 1e friends a lot. I know their strength and weaknesses. They wouldn't work for their salary, they work for the company (of course the standard of work would be another thing :)

Only one word can describe them. True.

Not shallow, self -centred people.

They did not meet me by chance, its a meeting arranged by God, the Universe Mind. Its a result of Karma. Everything in your life is a result of your thoughts and actions, which generate Karma.

When I am with them, I give and teach to the best of my knowledge. I do my best, to ensure that they advance in the right path of life. I do not help those in 2E so readily though. Whenever I am in 2E, I feel like a fish out of water. I am a totally different person when I am with my friends.

Perhaps this saying summarises it best. (I read it in the library today)

" I LOVE you NOT because of who you are, but because of WHO I AM when I am with you"

Love,
Aaron
