Earth Day 2008

rootsHaving lived in a Buddhist country had lead me to a better understanding on the ecological concern of Thai people. It’s not being converted but anonymously practicing their positive ways towards showing respect to nature and its creatures. In today’s Earth Day, some of the reflections and meditations I found from one of the well known channels has caught my attention.

“He who has understanding and great wisdom does not think of harming himself or another, nor of harming both alike. He rather thinks of his own welfare, of that of others, of that of both, and of the welfare of the whole world. In that way one shows understanding and great wisdom.”
Anguttara Nikaya, Fours, No. 18

The Gift

Li-Ion BatteryThe long due liberty gift is finally here. Chaaarraaannn! A new battery for my Motorola phone.

It’s quirky calling it liberty gift but it’s basically how it is. A liberty gift or my free gift from Ate Carey of Happysteps. She asked me to choose what I want, instead of giving it as a surprise.

The first thing that came to mind was the battery of course since I badly need to replace the present one. It has called my attention several times. Many people failed to contact me for urgent matters on normal low bat occasions.
