TODAY 

♥ Before you say an unkind word – Think of someone who can’t speak.
♥ Before you complain about the taste of your food – Think of someone who has nothing to eat.
♥ Before you complain about your husband or wife – Think of someone who’s crying out to GOD for a companion.
♥ Before you complain about life – Think of someone who went too early to Heaven.
♥ Before whining about the distance you drive – Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet.
♥ And when you are tired and complain about your job – Think of the unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your job…
♥ And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down – Put a Smile on your face and think: You’re Alive and still around. ~Unknown

    Very true words, we all NEED to remember that there is always somebody worse off than ourselves. And to stop dwelling on the negative side of life!

    Yes, they are my dear +Aruna Lokhande It's easy to overcome anything when you think of this. That is also what the Buddha taught us. I have learned this since I was very young.

    Very true +Lesia Dzikonski That's what I have learned from the teaching of Buddhism back when I was very young and always practice them in my daily life.

    Ma cher  Amitié de l'ASIE!
    C'est à la voix douce de mes amies et amis ,qui je découvris  la sensation de vivre heureux  pour la premier fois  par les mots qui ne volent pas ,mais qui restent ..
    les phrases qui sont attablés sur  une page  cette journée  là..de mois Décembre de l'année 2012.J'ai remarqué l'amie ,la brune au charme assis sur le terrasse d'un café à mon coté droit  ,elle m'a demandé de le donner  mon stylo ..en regardant son visage souriant ,je lui fis remarquer qui nous nous pensons de la méme pensée :celle de l'amitié,à ce temps je ne suis pas fait larguer 
    par la grande amitié

    Like a diver suffering from the bends, you go back to the depth you came from to recover. The decompression chamber is doing the same thing. Law of nature. 🙂

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.

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...
