1. Too tired today

    I want to g+
    My heart says “Yes”
    My eyes say “No”
    What should I do?

    I promised to visit some of my friends’ pages today, but I broke my promise. Please forgive me. I ran out of time already.

  2. New Year Resolution

    Do I look like I have a new year resolution?
    2013 is almost here, and I still cannot think of one right now.

     

  3. Sits and Smiles with the moon

    “The moon, like a flower
    In heaven’s high bower,
    With silent delight
    Sits and smiles on the night.”
    ~William Blake

  4. A genuine smile

    Photo manipulation. A photo of me taken by a little boy, in Connecticut on November 4, 2012. I was playing around with the sketch.

    A genuine smile comes from deep down in your soul. It is based on the pure joy, peace and happiness you have in your heart. If lost, the smile that replaces it is but a replication and will only last so long. Find your genuine smile, use it generously, and what you will receive in return for sharing it will be amazing. ~ Stephani McLellan

  5. I survived Hurricane Sandy. Missed all of you so much!

    Thank you my dearest friends for your kind and caring messages.
    I am doing fine right now. It was a bit scary, especially the wind.
    Sandy pulled down our gate, but didn’t hurt anyone inside.
    I will return here to visit all of you soon. Need to get some projects done first.

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.

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...
