Or, Prince Siddhartha (probably spelled wrong) was born perhaps today in India a very long time ago.

I’ve been dabbling in Buddhism through my Zen class for six months now, but this past week I have been reading Creating Compassion (right title?), which has taught me a lot more about it. I have decided I am going to meditate daily again (see other goal), but add reading regularly about Buddhism, and really practice hard to manage my anger (less a problem with anger, which is present but I have worked on a lot last year; now it’s exaggerated moods that are the problem) and show compassion as much as I possibly can.
