I cried my eyes out

Taking the stones they throw at me and using them to build my castle

I cried my eyes out, overwhelmed by the support I received here, like a weight lifted off of my shoulders, the weight of the world. I made some phone calls. I am getting help. Strong men also cry. Strong men also cry

Thank you!

When sorrows invade the mind, we discover dharma and find lasting happiness. Thank you, sorrows!

Through harm caused by spirits we discover dharma and find fearlessness. Thank you, ghosts and demons!

Through people's hate we discover dharma and find benefits and happiness. Thank you, those who hate us!

 
Through cruel adversity, we discover dharma and find the unchanging way. Thank you, adversity!

Through being impelled to by others, we discover dharma and find the essential meaning. Thank you, all who drive us on!

We dedicate our merit to you all, to repay your kindness.
