....So I am back on the blog page :D For who knows how long... I have 0 inspiration at the moment, but since i just got back from work and im just laying here in bed with the laptop I figured it was time to let certain people know that I am still alive.... Feels like everything is the same as always, but actually found a new job, started a new master, started suddenly babysitting quite often, and realized this is the last year in Holland....Next Year: Paris.... And still looking for a french teacher....
I have just been thinking about another of the paradoxes of the DalaiLama up in Dhramsala, it was strange cuz we only went to his teachings for 1 day, and simply for the curiosity of seeing him. Everybody was listening super attentively and taking notes on everyword he said, Ana and I rather just layed down and heard his words translated into korean and later to english. All he said was more "obvious" than anything else, but somehow i still clearly remember those words about, happiness, society etc... and all without having to take notes :D
....Dhramsala..... The place where we met our small spanish/tibetan buddhist family coming from La Casa del Tibet de Barcelona
The paradox of our Age
We have bigger houses but smaller families;
more conveniences, but less time.
We have more degrees but less sense;
more knowledge but less judgment;
more experts, but more problems;
more medicines but less healthiness.
We’ve been all the way to the moon and back,
but have trouble in crossing the street to meet our new neighbour.
We built more computers to hold more copies than ever,
But have less real communication;
We have become long on quantity,
but short on quality.
These are times of fast foods but slow digestion;
Tall mean but short characters;
Steep profits but shallow relationships.
It’s a time when there is much in the window
But nothing in the room.
H.H. Dalai Lama
