She sneezed again, and again I told her, "Bless you." The woman directly next to her said naught. Too immersed, I guess, in her meditation. No one else said a word. Yet, there they sat, listening about kindness and balance; about walking with God "with a clean heart full of love."
How can they achieve so grand a spiritual path of peace and upliftment when they cannot say a simple "Bless you" to the sneezing body of the "perfect soul" near them?

Perhaps it's like the speaker said there that very day, "We become cautious and careful."
Well then, all the more reason for those on the spiritual path to grasp any opportunity to bless another person out loud. I mean, isn't the evidence of one's goodness in how you actually live and breathe?
But hey, I'm not seen as all that holy, so what do I know.
