Paul McCartney Gets By With A Little Help From The Dalai Lama

September 24th, 2008

Paul McCartney has received a gift from the Dalai Lama, can you believe that?  Uh huh, it’s true!

Anticipating  Paul’s upcoming gig tomorrow in Israel, the Dalai has sent him a book entitled “The Universe In A Single Atom”, with the aim being to help Paul get through his tough time ahead.

To say this event tomorrow is nerve-wracking for everyone involved is putting it mildly.  Suicide bombers have threatened to target the event,  but Paul is trying hard not to let it get the better of him.  In true McCartney fashion, he philosophises…

“I think we’re at a very interesting stage in human development and I just hope for the best and I’m optimistic about it. I’m not so much religious as someone who likes to think I take the best from many religions: the best of what they all have to say. They obviously have a lot of things in common.

He also goes on to say…

“the world is a magnificent place and that we are blessed to be on it.”

My goodness, what a man!  He seems to be very calm and cool under this immense pressure he’s facing by performing for the fans in Israel.  History will be made tomorrow evening, and let’s all hope and pray that Paul and all of his people are safe as the eyes of the world will be on Tel Aviv.
