Today, I'd like to share some driving tips with you. If the lane you're in is coming to an end, you will need to decelerate and look for a suitable space in the next lane so you can safely change lanes. Please note you must give way to cars that are already in that lane. If another vehicle is coming into your lane, leave enough space for them to move into. When you are merging lanes, you need to give way to the car that’s in front of you. This is known as a zipper merge. It’s also required to allow buses to go first when they are displaying the sign “Give way to buses.” This applies to when you’re in the left lane and the bus is stopped or slowly moving on the left side of the road signaling right. It's important to always follow rules and practice safe driving while you're on the road!
Some happy guffaws are waiting for you as the joke of the day is ready. It’s entitled “Keeping Up.”
A concerned teacher asks her student about his recent drop in performance…
“I really don't understand it, Ty, you have always been the top student in the class. But in the past few weeks, you can't solve math problems anymore. What’s the matter?”
“Well, it's very simple, Ms. Smith. My dad just can't keep up with your homework assignments right now.”

And now we have a heartline from Maryam in Iran:
My Beloved Master, I have been searching since my childhood. I didn’t know what I was impatient about. I didn’t know why I was waiting. I didn’t know what I was waiting for.
I have been initiated for a while. During all this time, my utmost calm has brought me to this certainty, that I have been looking for You. I was impatient for You.
I thank You every day that You have seen me. You took my hand and accepted my troubled presence by Your side. And I ask what happened? Why am I so blessed to be Your disciple?! I believe my purpose of this birth is to know You in order to understand the ultimate goal of the cycle of life.
In all the 15 years that I have known You, although I could not meet You in person, I never thought for a moment that time and space have separated us. Every moment I am filled with Your Love, and I don’t need anything else.
I pray every day that as long as You are on this planet, You should see and witness the results of Your efforts and endeavors for bringing peace and veganism to this planet, and as a result of that, Your tiredness should vanish and You feel happy and satisfied
I love You, although the Ocean of Your Love is so vast that my love seems like a tiny drop. Maryam from Iran
Poetic Maryam, Thank you for your loving heartline.
Master has this gracious reply for your kind soul: “Cherished Maryam, I am touched by the innocence and tenderness of your words. Your sincerity opens the door that allows the Master Power to reach and uplift you. The more we long for the Truth and nothing else, the more we will find it and our life will be full of Blessings. I am glad to have disciples like you who know and experience this. Keep meditating well and praying for World Vegan, World Peace, so we can save as many individuals as possible. My love is forever with you. May you and the kindhearted Iranian people always experience the infinite Blessings of Allah.”
