My little sister and I

November 9, 2013

Our family just buried our little sister, Alanthara on our 28th anniversary in America, today [November 9 ]. Yes, this day is bittersweet for us. Coincidentally, little sister is now Dany Svay's neighbor at the cemetery. Dany is a grandson of our family's very close friend and room mate in Texas. We moved to Massachusetts together on November 3, 1987, the day my little sister passed away [26 years later]. Dany died from drowning at his high school pool on April 9th, 2013 at age 16. We purchased a plot for our little sister, without knowing…From now on my mother and Dany's grandma can cry together during their visits….

Friend is friend because he want just friend. One veritable friend: just death can give separation. But in life we must profite the veritable FRIEND. BECAUSE per haps he is not perfect but he can stay OPEN with all circumstances, and per-haps it's LOVE!

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.

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.
