A friend is everything

Someone we trust, 
and someone we care. 
Our deepest secrets, 
with a friend we do share.

Times when we're lonely, 
and covered in fear. 
A good loyal friend, 
will always be near.

A friend will not criticize, 
nor ruthlessly judge. 
Towards our dreams, 
faithfully nudge.

Attentively listen, 
and offers advice. 
A friend keeps no tabs, 
never looks at the price.

Picks up our stress, 
and brings joy with a joke. 
A friend feeds us laughter, 
in memories we soak.

A friend is everything, 
and always much more. 
With a huge smile, 
a friend opens the door.

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.

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
