A genuine smile

A genuine smile comes from deep down in your soul. It is based on the pure joy, peace and happiness you have in your heart. If lost, the smile that replaces it is but a replication and will only last so long. Find your genuine smile, use it generously, and what you will receive in return for sharing it will be amazing. ~ Stephani McLellan

Photo manipulation. A photo of me taken by a little boy, in Connecticut on November 4, 2012. I was playing around with the sketch.

    You can also add a black and white layer and reduce the opacity. Add mask and paint the color back as required. Nice photo +Jendhamuni Sos

    Thanks +Harit Doshi I wasn't that serious, cracked a little smile too, but not big enough to show:))) It was too early in the morning. I had to get up very early that day and it was quite a long ride for me to get to where I was in picture:)))

    You made a great point +Harit Doshi Oh, that's good, that you will go home for New Year celebration. How long are you planning to stay there?

    That's not bad, a little short.
    When I went to my homeland, I never got to stay there long, only between 4-8 days because I don't have much time. Always quite a short trip.

    I don't think I want to go home any time soon +Harit Doshi My country is so corrupted. I would rather save those travelling money for donation instead. But I'm planning to go to India, Nepal and Sri Lanka.

Live & Die for Buddhism

My Reflection

This site is a tribute to Buddhism. Buddhism has given me a tremendous inspiration to be who and where I am today. Although I came to America at a very young age, however, I never once forget who I am and where I came from. One thing I know for sure is I was born as a Buddhist, live as a Buddhist and will leave this earth as a Buddhist. I do not believe in superstition. I only believe in karma.

A Handful of Leaves

Tipitaka: The pali canon (Readings in Theravada Buddhism). A vast body of literature in English translation the texts add up to several thousand printed pages. Most -- but not all -- of the Canon has already been published in English over the years. Although only a small fraction of these texts are available here at Access to Insight, this collection can nonetheless be a very good place to start.

Of the many problems we face today, some are natural calamities and must be accepted and faced with equanimity. Others, however, are of our own making, created by misunderstanding, and can be corrected...
