AdontaiRecognizing the Duality Within: A Journey of Self-Discovery and Transformation
I recognize that the seeds of malice only serve to entrap me in an endless cycle of pain and disconnection. It is a paradox - the more I cling to my ego, the more isolated I become, cocooned in a shell of self-imposed ignorance.The recognition of evil is akin to peeling back layers of an onion, each layer revealing a pungent truth about my nature. With each layer, tears may fall - tears of regret, of understanding, and sometimes, of liberation. As I peel, I uncover the raw essence of my human...
AdontaiThe Seeds of the Mind: How Our Thoughts Shape Our Destiny
Once upon a time, there was a young monk named Tenzin who had just entered the monastery. He was eager to learn and absorb everything that was taught to him. He spent his days studying and practicing meditation, trying to understand the teachings of the Buddha. One day, his master called him to his chambers and said, "Tenzin, I want to teach you something important. Everything you do or say gets recorded in your mind. It makes an imprint on your subconscious, and that imprint becomes a seed. ...

The saying "No New Friends" has become popular in recent years, with many people adopting it as their personal mantra. The idea behind it is that they do not want to let in new people into their lives because they do not trust easily. This is a sentiment that I can relate to.
I have always been someone who has found it difficult to trust others. It takes a lot of time and effort for me to open up to someone and let them into my inner circle. As a result, I have a small group of friends that I have known for years. These are the people who have been with me through thick and thin, and I trust them implicitly.
However, I have also struggled with feeling like I do not have much to offer my friends in return. I often feel like I am only taking from them and not giving back. This creates a sense of guilt and shame within me, and I worry that I will never be able to repay them for all that they have done for me.
This feeling of indebtedness can be overwhelming at times, and it can make me feel like a burden to my friends. It is easy to fall into the trap of thinking that I am not worthy of their friendship, but I know that this is not true. My friends love me for who I am, flaws and all, and they have chosen to be in my life because they value our relationship.
In the end, the saying "No New Friends" may work for some people, but it is not a universal truth. It is possible to make new friends and form meaningful relationships, even if it takes time and effort. And while it is important to be aware of the dynamics of our friendships and strive to give as much as we take, we should also remember that true friendship is built on love and acceptance, not on what we can offer each other.
