When the winds of life is pushing you back, That’s when you push forward the hardest. ~ Yvonne Pierre

    SOMETIMES YOU GET FURTHER BY LETTING THE WINDS CARRY YOU WHERE EVER THEY MIGHT TAKE YOU., THEN YOU FIGHT WITH ALL THATS IN YOU TO FIND YOURE PLACE, YOURESELF, WHATEVER YOU ARE SEARCHING FOR BECAUSE PUSHING AGAINST THE WINDS OF LIFE YOU WILL MISS THE LITTLE THINGS AND THEY ARE JUST AS IMPORTANT.

    Someday someone will walk into your life and make you realize why it never worked out with anyone else.

    You will not be discouraged. Turned against the idea ever.
    I think it would make a conscious deliberate thought in detail.
    There are many many people in this world. Countries experiencing the same event.
    You have to give you some help. But the insulation will make it more serious.
    Our country. We use our senses, and in particular the need for law enforcement agencies to develop positive for mercy. With the intention of international assistance.
    I submitted today. May not be relevant to your comment so much.
    I only want to use. Governance for development. Better use of state power to salvage the situation shown in it too 
    Good morning.

    I love your posts Jendhamuni. You have a very feminine and spiritual artistic sensibility that is very attractive. I have a poem that I wrote today that I think you may enjoy reading. I write as a hobby every now and then.

     
    Life’s Autumn Light
    With age I’ve obtained a certain clarity
    in realizing that there is beauty in seeing clouds as clouds
    beyond the airy shapes that they form
    and to value those who speak with sincerity,
    in place of conversations among those trendy crowds
    where it’s more important to fit in, than be subjected to scorn.
     
    I recall in youth the fanciful dreams that I dreamt
    that danced like fireflies on a hot Summer night
    and slowly drifted away, their light now spent
    as I walked into the dawn of Life’s Autumn Light.
     
    It also now seems to me much more clear
    that it’s easier to sin and to so dare
    in thinking it involves only us, what’s to fear?
    In the lie to ourselves, who will care?
     
    Though in time our eyes soon grow dim,
    there is irony in this journey towards eternity,
    in that as we gaze out and see less, we are forced to look within
    allowing us to see more than our eyes could ever see.
     
    I have learned that when I don’t like the circumstances in my life,
    the choices are simple and clear.
    I can pray to our Father and follow his light,
    or remain in the darkness and be held captive in fear
     
    Jesus enjoined us to come and follow him
    To prevent us from straying onto each path that calls us to sin
    which silently open a door that exists deep within
    through which we wander far from home and are left empty again
     
    As my ears begin to hear less of those who speak before me
    I can now clearly hear that small still voice within
    and realize that it’s not just me that is speaking to me,
    but the voice of God that I can finally hear above the din.

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.

Problems we face today

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...
