The pilots did not mention any trouble on board, suggesting they may have been misleading ground control.

  2. Where did Social Security numbers come from?

    7

    Most people in the U.S. have them, considering you need them for so many things. Kids need them so their parents can claim them as dependents for tax reasons, you need one to apply for a job, and they’re necessary for collecting many government benefits. If you’ve applied for a credit card or loan, you’ve entered it on your application. Because it’s tied to some of the most important, sensitive data about you, a Social Security number itself is incredibly delicate information, which is why you need to be cautious about whom you give it to…read more

    When you love someone, you give everything without thinking twice, deny the truth, believe in lies, do crazy things that you can't explain and cry over things that hurt you but still stay and say, I'm okay. ~Unknown

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.

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.
