This week was quite trying for me. After a student hacked onto my Facebook, I was feeling annoyed and violated. I thought this wasn't supposed to happen in Asia?????
I guess 13 year old boys are little hornballs everywhere.
Spent Saturday at KHH's gay pride parade and the entire day today at Fo Gunang Shan, Taiwan's largest temple complex. The main temple houses some of Buddha's ashes and offers opportunities to get blessed. One of the monks invited my friends and me to look into the Buddha statue's eyes and then pick out a ball from box that had some words of wisdom on it that the Buddha tailored just for us. The advice I received from the Buddha today was, "A cause will become an effect, which in turn will become a cause. All dharmas are formed by the combination and unity of different causes and conditions." Gave me a lot of food for thought.
Sue's friend brought her four-year old child that I played with all afternoon. She was so precious. Feeling rested and rejuvenated for tomorrow.
