So, what got me here? It was my two days of depression, accompanied by plentiful of soul searching, a lot of self-questioning and seconds of self-enlightenment that got me here. I am flapping my wings now, beginning to soar to the highest…
I went to watch a documentary this afternoon, the title of the documentary was “The Great Mystery” directed by Catherine Corona. I got to know this documentary when I was reading the Straits Times. The picture of Catherine Corona having a conversation with a Tibetian Buddhist monk caught my eye first. As I was reading the headlines, it drew me into the the great mystery.
The documentary was about a woman who travelled across western America asking universal questions to people of different faiths. Why are we here? Who is God? Will there ever be peace?
Through this documentary, I had a further understanding about different people’s faiths, practices and beliefs. I have always respected all religions but I believe that there is only one God. I don’t label myself as a Christian or a Buddhist as I feel that we are simply one.
Today is the 13th of January 2011. It marks an important day to me as another new chapter of my life begins. My best friend, Melanie told me, Buddha has taught us that we should take the middle path to enlightement and I personally feel that I should take the middle path too in whatever I do. I am an impatient person. Meditation has helped me in staying calm and positive. God has helped me or I should say walked with me in getting out of my anxiety. This is something I would never forget.
It has been quite a day today. Love every minute and second of it.
