Generous spirits
Did anyone hear 'Twilight' creator Stephenie Meyer on Front Row last night? It was a nice little interview, but what really struck me was her generosity towards E L James when Mark Lawson described her (Meyer) as being 'inadvertently responsible' for the phenomenon that is Fifty Shades of Grey. She replied: 'I’m so far removed from it. I haven’t read it – it’s not a genre that I
have had any experience of. It’s kind of nice that she’s done so well and that
she’s gotten a start, and that’s cool.'
There are a lot of nasty folk in the world, but in the two main areas in which I work I have met some lovely ones. The yoga teaching family is generous and open. If someone comes to my class and doesn't like it, I recommend somewhere else - and have had students come to me on recommendation from another teacher. Can you imaging Tesco saying, 'Sorry we can't help you. Have you tried Morrisons?'
