Mothers Day

I am very excited for mothers day weekend, because I get to go with my Great Grandma (who is 99), my Grandma, my Aunt and maybe my cousin, also my grandma's little Scottish Terrier. All in 1 car for 8 hours. When we get to Spokane we will go pick my mom up from the Airport. We will then go to my Great Aunts house for dinner. Since it is going to be a FULL house we will go rent a hotel room. Then on the official day of Mothers Day we will give gifts. Im not sure what I will get my mom, but i think she will love anything.

Dali Lama

Yesterday, (Monday April-15-2008) I wentand saw the Dali Lama with a group of students from my school, a total of probably 20 students went. I am REALLY glad I went because it was a inpirational experience. One thing that I heard on the radio however, is that some parents didnt want their kids going because they thought that their child would be pushed into becoming Buddist. That however is simply NOT true, in fact the Dali Lama brought up that you dont have to be of a certain religion to belive in compassion and in changing your and otheres world. In this show there was also Indian dancing and singing and the indians idea of copassion. Also there was inspirational speakers and poets. I am really glad I went to learn how to sew the seeds of compassion.
