I met Rosa Parks 25 years ago, on a train to Seattle, she was Angelic,

she radiated such love that being near her brought tears to my eyes.

I just sat there in the little lounge on the train at night while a young college girl held her hand and a fellow played outrageously good classical guitar for her, I had just started on a spirit quest that lasted 7 years... it was a good way to start that journey.

i just sat nearby and basked in the love....:grouphug:

1. I'm glad to hear she was surrounded with love.

2. It's been called "Buddha nature."

It is hard to see in most circumstances, but once or twice (if we are lucky and not too bound up by Maya, by illusion) we encounter someone in whom it shines so brightly that even the blind can see. A few people, call them avatars or saints, help remind the rest of us what it means to be human. You are very fortunate to have met her.
