What to do if no money for gift

chanthanhluong @chanthanhluong (21) 25 Jan 13

I would love to show my teachers how much I appreciate them but I don't have any money. Any suggestions? They gave me books and I had the privileges of eating at their places a lot.

chanthanhluong Thanks greenthumb018, I'm not good with arts and crafts. One time I sketch a bird by tracing my two hands and I gave this to an art teacher. I felt embarrass thinking about it after giving it because it looked tacky. Too much arts and crafts where would they...

chanthanhluong Thank you Archie0 A card would be nice and everyone like cookies or chocolate. I can use the verses in the card to express my sincerity of my mind and the sweets can symbolize my sweetness in life when I have someone holding my hands. Sometime I see people...

Do you have a sanctuary?

chanthanhluong @chanthanhluong (21) 23 Jan 13

Do you have a special sanctuary of your own? It doesn't have to be a temple or church. If it is place where you feel peaceful and feel like you can nurture your well being, to me that is a sanctuary. Everyone should have a...

chanthanhluong Hi Deazil, Yes, life can be crazy. I know what you mean. My jobs change a lot. But you now, I have to be calm for my family no matter what happens because they need my loving, supportive energy and the house needs my energy. When I'm stress or sad, the people...

chanthanhluong Hi Mavic123456, Thank you for sharing. We are so much alike. My second sanctuary and the one I can't live without is wherever my laptop is but there has to be internet connection. It's because I depend on my laptop a lot to listen to dharma. You're living in...

Mindfullness when speaking

chanthanhluong @chanthanhluong (21) 24 Jan 13

It happens so often. Most of the time my mouth is faster than my brain and words come out and then I later regret the things I said. Sometime the words that come out are only partly true and sometime they can be hurtful, words...

chanthanhluong Thank you for advice Moonchild0207. That's right, I don't mean to say anything hurtful. It's just that I have a habit of impulsiveness and this habit can be out of control when I feel like I have to stand up for myself. But I'm learning to not talk when I'm...

chanthanhluong You use acronym? That's so cool. Give me some examples. It's a good idea to analyze people before talking to them. How long had you practice this? I keep forgetting to analyze the people close to me, but I'm proper when I'm in formal setting because I feel...

chanthanhluong Tea ceremony sounds nice. Maybe it helps if you sit in nice quiet room, away from distractions and enjoy the present moments with aromatic teas in nice, cute cups. Before I sip my tea, I inhale the aromas from the tea. I also find out that I like to be in a...

chanthanhluong Hi TheKingMan, I love organic products. Which brand do you use? Do you spray the perfume to the room? Some people are allergic to scents. I love gentle scents like lavender, sandalwood and musk. I love it when the whole room look so clean and smells so pretty...

chanthanhluong Hi Deazil, Thanks for reading my post. It sounds like your sanctuary is nice too. When the weather is warm I enjoy going to the park and river too. My dogs love to go to the park but lately it's too cold to take them there. What do you there? Once you are...
