That's the WAY!!

You can't tell who they really are from how they look or what they do, can you? People tend to judge others by their look and attitude. It's because really easy to see by eyes or hear. It's so visible and obvious. Attitude or saying in words could reflect what people think, but how many people are really doing how they want to do or what they think they wish to do. I am interested in how people really think. What would happen if all human-beings started to act honestly for themselves. Maybe it is the different from animal and human. Human have a capacity to lie themselves or hide true thoughts and act for other's benefit. Thinking that other's benefit is your gain, which, in other word, is LOVE. Maybe that the start of the development of community. Keeping harmony is the priority within the community. In American Indian culture, they don't have any law, in fact, it is not necessary. Having a strong tie in the community, it is fearful for individuals to lose t...

I always admire them. Those people who make a lot of effort to achieve their goals. They have a lot of stories to tell of which I would never heard. I wonder if I could be like them. I wonder if I could be determined like they are. I just appreciate to have the chances to meet them in this world. Who could have imagined that I would have such a wonderful encounter. Thinking of the possibility to meet those individuals in this universe would be very very small. From the day that I was born, did anybody know that how I'm going to do? On the days that made my life turned, twisted, and jumped, would I ever know that there would be a lot more to experience out there? A wise man said "what if this world is Heaven?" Many people believe that there are another life, so you hope to do things which you can't do now in the another life. But what if this is Heaven, then we are wasting so many things, the beautiful nature, lots of people's life, all the resources, the natural...

From this week, I started to travel to the massage course by train. It takes 45 minuets and about an hour from door to door. I found it very relaxing compare to driving up the mountain via high way. I have a lot of time for reading, sleeping, looking at the mountains and bush, and meditating which I couldn't have done in the car. I always feel an interesting thing about train journey. The time and space in the train is somehow different from that of outside of train, as if I am traveling time much faster than the outside world and I become an observer who is looking through the world. The windows seem to be a multi screen displaying people who are going to school and work, or endless scenery of the magnificent nature. In return, I like to see the moving trains from outside especially at night. At the windows, I see people who may be going back to home, each individual is doing different things; looking out of windows, chatting with friends, talking on the mobile or sleeping peacefu...

An American Indian said that rituals are important part of our life to walk on the earth gently. Through the rituals, we are opening up ourselves so that we can heal more effectively and easily. Spiritual part of ourselves is not visible and being aware of spirit is not easy thing in the physical world. Rituals help connect Physical being to other aspects of us which are; mind, emotion, and spirit and it assist all four aspects to unite as one. Today, I did a little ritual by burning my old journal to celebrate my new start. Important notes that I made in the journal remains in my heart forever and all the mistakes, worries, and concerns are gone into the air. In the American Indian culture, wisdom is passed from generation to generation verbally. Telling stories from adult to children, elder to adult and people to people. One of important facts of passing wisdom verbally is that story can be changed depends on listener's personality or ability but main message remains, so that an...

So, another day is finishing. I just finished off one assignment for massage course. It's nice to see the little achievement. Maybe, that's what I need to do. Visualize the little steps to climb up, or untangle strings one at a time. I just need to do one by one. I am always the slow one like a turtle. I was always the one who didn't go home straight away from school, instead I walked around and discovered a lot of fun on the side of the road. It seems you are wasting time but it's not. You are just taking time as it takes. Don't worry about how you go, just enjoy the moment, one step at a time.

Life is a funny thing. If I list every single thing I want to do in my life, I would be devastated to know it's impossible to fulfill everything. Knowing that, I was silly, I did, I listed it in my head and devastated. Major storm in my head. It blinds you from what you have now which constantly giving you safety and place to even think about it. I don't know why I trapped by such a obvious thing from time to time. And why I forget that it always comes and goes like a storm and it's not the end of life. Funny thing the emotion is also, sometime logical thinking doesn't explain everything. It's a slow progress to become who I want to be. Keeping peace in mind and do not panic. It may take three step forward and two step back, sometime three or four step back. But I should know I will get there where I can look back and laugh about the past. I just appreciate the every support people provide me and give warmth in my heart. Tomorrow is another day. Let's step forwa...

It's always amusing to know how different we are from each other, and at the same time those differences could attract each other or dislike each other. How one person feels, thinks, perceives, cannot be entirely same to others. We are all different, indeed. I felt so helpless when my friend told me about how she was stressed and struggling to cope her current situation. She is an admirable person, she always lifts my motivation up through my massage course and she is very clever and intelligent, knows a lot of things about what I am interested. She always show cheerful smile and seems to be full of positive energy. But, not this week. I wanted to do something for her but only I could do was to talk and listen. I wanted to save her from the darkness and uncertainty where she was wondering around. There were not so much I could do. I wished if only I could give her some comfort like she always gave me. It was strange to be happened but many students from my course including me we...
