Smiles After Awakin San Diego

Mariette and a few folks in her Awakin San Diego community rolled out a late-night dessert and hugs circle. At one point, I was telling Yuka's story and lo-and-behold, she just happened to show up, to pick up some carry-out food.  Right as her food came out, Tarang immediately whisked away the bill to tag her.  Mariette had gifted a beautiful, hand-made bowl and with her permission, we paid it forward to Maki in Japan.  Not to be out-generoused (is that a word?), Yuka went to her hotel room and came with chocolate for us.  To step-it-up further, we opened up the chocolate and shared it with the waitresses. 

So many smiles all around.  :)
