Coming from being poor in Laos as well as at the refugee camp in Thailand and also when we first moved to America living ghetto areas like Richmond, CA to the projects of Conway Homes in Stockton, CA, I really think it's those struggles and the gratitude of overcoming from it that have brought me true happiness now.  O0

Those times we will never forget. The struggles we have endured.

We are truly blessed. We work hard and apply our experiences daily. Everything we need is surrounding us, hard work pays off when you go through what we did.

Prayers goes out to those Haitians and refugees around the world.

I take refuge in the Buddha.
I take refuge in the dharma.
I take refuge in the sangha.

yeah, it's these struggles that shape those who took the pain personally..no t feeling sorry for themselves and blaming anyone or anything..the opportunities are there, just take advantage of them...work for it..don't asked for it..

Many lazy folks will and can not comprehend that. Many of them would rather blame others than take a good look at their lazy azz self ...unfortunate ly..
