I didn't exactly read the entire post (sorry!) but I have to say, that it has allowed me to reflect upon my life heavily in a positive note. Buddhism does not dictate my life, and I control 110% of it. Each aspect I do and each moment that happens to me, I can credit it to something else that I have done (karma). You should seriously consider Buddhism. Sorry, I don't mean to preach. I'm just letting you know first hand that it has done a lot for my life. Enjoy, and good luck on your quest. Bryan Hello,

I am a Vietnamese Buddhist - and to be honest, I love my religion.

Sorry, I don’t mean to preach. I’m just letting you know first hand that it has done a lot for my life.

Enjoy, and good luck on your quest.

Can’t quite figure out how I got to it…something in Technorati. I was thinking this morning that probably in our day and age idolatry consists of trying too much to constrain our understanding or belief in God to be a being that we can fit into in our own very little minds. You know the Scripture “As the heavens are high above the earth so are my ways above your ways and my thoughts above your thoughts…”. People don’t remember that often enough, especially religious practitioners. Regarding Hell, I figure that the job of Judge Of The World has been handed out, and I didn’t get the job. I’m happy with that, and try to remember that if I’m making a judgment about somebody else, then I’m trying to do somebody else’s job and they don’t need help from me. I hope you stick with your quest. Best Wishes, An interesting and very honest post, young lady. Can’t quite figure out how I got to it…something in Technorati.
