The easiest thing to be in the world is you. The most difficult thing to be is what other people want you to be. Don't let them put you in that position. ~Leo Buscaglia

    Well stated.  Only when you are true to yourself can you be true to others, only when you love yourself can you love others truly.

    We can't be what others want us to be. If we try to it would result in us being misersble. Truth be told!

    It is probably a good idea to try to be what God wants you to be, and to try to do what He would like you to do, during your time in this life.

    Individualism is already on the rise and this is why I see crisis in relationships ..human society or family can never be happy or sucssful without listening to other .

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.

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.
