How I did it: I want to brag on my sister a little bit. Her weddingwas wonderful, she is wonderful and her new husband Chess is wonderful. I am so impressed by them both. They had such a relaxed wedding and everyone smiled so much that I think all of our faces were sore for days. The ceremony was very simple and very comfortable, definitely the kind of wedding that I look forward to having some time (a long time from now). She was thoughtful about t… Read how I did it…
This month started with a bang, or more precisely with a bang on my door telling me that I would be moving to a new apartment the next day. Often, in the midst of many other things, life meets us with these surprises and opportunities for growth. I won’t lie, I wasn’t thrilled with this news, but I have already learned a tremendous amount of valuable lessons in this experience so far and flexibility has been key.
This month’s theme of commitment comes as I consider my strongest values and what I want to commit my life to. I plan on mirroring my statement of commitments after the Dalai Lama’s three commitments. It’s a nice way to keep things in perspective.
“To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one’s family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one’s own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.” – Buddha
I hope to visit America with Tunga this summer between my service as a Peace Corps Volunteer and (hopefully) my third year of service as a Peace Corps Volunteer Leader. It would be really nice to hike on the Appalachian Trail with Tunga and my mom I think, as well as visit with my other family members and friends. Peace Corps will provide me with a ticket home and 30 days vacation. Together Tunga and I can also hopefully get a visa for her without too much of a challenge. We are working on that now.
