We experience joy

December 8, 2013

Generosity brings happiness at every stage of its expression. We experience joy in forming the intention to be generous. We experience joy in the actual act of giving something. And we experience joy in remembering the fact that we have given. ~Buddha

    Life is so different in many ways. Make the choice given all of everything that you have gone through. The happiness shines through all in good time. It's like the sun finally shining after a huge storm.

    There is an old German proverb: "It is more blessed than to receive",

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.
