No one truly knows

No one truly knows what they will do in a certain situation until they are actually in it. It's very easy to judge someone else's actions by what you assume your own would be, if you were in their shoes. But we only know what we THINK we would do, not what we WOULD do. ~Ashly Lorenzana

    This is one of the most profound truths.we just assume are, would be actions, from emotions, rather than true thoughts .this is worth pondering ,with know way to truly know what we would do.one can truly never walk in those literal shoes that make those foot print unchangable.so I say live let live.i am no judge.wish every man strength for his journey.

    Well said. VERY well said. Even one step further… There's only one judge, and he is watching those that poke and judge the reaction. People REALLY need to check themselves. Sins against his flock are far greater than sins of the flesh. It's one thing to affect yourself, but to intentionally attack another to compare score cards is down right wicked.

    It is only the person who is directly i repeat directly affected by the action of another who really knows the impact felt . No one else has a clue although the way they offer unwanted advice and sit holier than thou in judgment of you should simply stay out of your life
    I can assure all of you perfect people who never make a mistake and look down on people who have a rough run

    very true. besides , u r bound to act rather react by the thoughts, state of mind and ability to take quick decision, sometime on impulse you take decision. it is better to react rather than remain inert. at least you r moving, going ahead. this is applicable in situations like self defence, survival and not for taking full hardy decisions/actions that may land you in trouble.

    I think you are very right there.

    I had one situation this afternoon when I decided to go to the Ministry of Justice and Attorney General's Department to meet with His Lordship Prof. Justice V. C. R. A. C. Crabbe, Director Law Drafting and Commissioner Statue Law Review.

    Justice Crabbe was mandated by the Minister for Justice and Attorney General when the Minister was mandated by the late President H.E Prof. John Evans Atta-Mills to deal directly with me to resolve the issue.

    The late President had earlier on mandated the Ministers for Finance, Communications and that of Trade & Industry to resolve same. But non of the three or all of them together did not take any effective steps of could do it even after they set up an inter ministerial  team as it were to deal with the matter.

    The eminent retired judge of the Supreme Court of Ghana was to handle my petition for the Restoration of Intellectual and Other Property Rights illicitly usurped and robbed me of by wicked and demonic possessed individuals in Government and their cronies the private sector in Ghana and across the globe who see nothing but money to be important. 

    After greeting the lawyers who were in a jolly mood at an end of year party beginning from the table and ending at the Minister for Justice and Attorney General with a chat shaking their individual hands and wishing them Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year,  I was surprised at the behavior of one assistant of the Attorney General.  Tomorrow the 20th of December 2013 will be exactly a year since I had to escape my Kumasi residence with the help and Godly intervention of His Grace Peter K. Sarpong, Archbishop Emeritus of the  Catholic Archdiocese of Kumasi to avert my being kidnapped and murdered by the hired agents of these syndicates. These rogues have also seized with the connivance of the Ghana Police in Kumasi collaborated by the Police Administration in Ghana. Every effort to bring sense to prevail has failed so far with all the appropriate Governmental institutions in Ghana.

    The the bad or good news depending on how you may look at this is that, the bad guy hired to lead I am informed has gone mad in Kumasi.

    His mother, sister and other siblings I hear are going through so much. that is what I have heard. What I have not heard only God knows.

    But the truth is each and every one except for the grace we take for granted each time we are freed, shall receive our rewards in accordance with our works and deeds.

    I leave this special assistant of the Attorney General of Ghana to himself, his action and the God or Satan he believes in.

    May God Bless us all with a Very Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year 2014.

    If we all become worthy again we can put the evil to a stop the love for another brother and sister on earth we must put our minds together if we want peace on earth everything we have we suppose to share it our love our minds our voice God left it to man that man was His son we all are apart of his son there for if you see evil you ask for help to put it to a stop

  49. yShun Donaldson

    December 19, 2013

    I Shun speak to all of you so we all will know what we need to do the borders between us is to control us there if anyone on earth wants to see power of God it's within us as we share our love to each other that is the only way to stop evil because evil is within ones mind wanting to much so he are she wants to hurt there brother are sister to get something they want . I see many evil doing in the country I live in the untied states we go back to what we where and push away from this fake life we live in and so what was given by God and not man

  50. yShun Donaldson

    December 19, 2013

    We can start by changing the way we talk and recognizing that we are brothers and sisters on earth the more you say it it will help us to love ourself than our sisters and brothers on earth I push for in time all borders are remove because we all related by having borders between us only bad things come from that one brother trying to over power another brother for greed for more oil for more gold we are like there slaves and using us to kill each other no good have came from this.

    The basis of judging others is believing we would make better choices given the same circumstances. Without this presupposition much of our bias, and racism would not exist.

  57. John Coldiron

    December 19, 2013

    Yes but nothing is worth hurting yourself over. Haven't you been hurt enough to reach this point. Besides, think how lonely we would be and sad if something happened to you?

  58. Tim O'Donnell

    December 19, 2013

    Iv'e had many personal experiences with people that I thought were close friends. One was a 15-year friend another was almost 25 years. Even friends of that length of time just couldn't or wouldn't understand an issue I had been dealing with since High School were suddenly passing judgement on me and served only to make matters worse for me. It just occurred to me as I was writing this that all those years they knew me, when I was mostly keeping it to myself, they had no idea what I was going through, but when I decided to lean on them a little bit, they suddenly forgot that I "Was such a great friend and was always there to listen". When I needed someone to listen, they both quickly disappeared. That's when I learned, at least in my case, that when it comes down to it, your family are the only ones who you can trust to always be there for you. If they weren't , I probably wouldn't be here.

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.
