Insights: April
Dear DeviantArt,
Yet again, I've neglected to update this journal and forgive me. I have been very busy. During this wonderful month, I had the opportunity to see both my parents. They are both well and vital in their own ways. My parents are two very different elements. Yet together, they form a balance for me (though they themselves might not share this view of each other!) but they have both cared and loved me, and I treasure them very much. So it was a wonderful way to begin this month.
Also, I celebrated my six-year anniversary with *
CrAzYmOnKeY. To think 6 years have passed so quickly! But still we are together and learning. I am proud to say that we have a very honest and trusting relationship, even if that means being brave enough to point out the other's faults! But all the same, we've always allowed room for affection and care, and even space for growth. I know I'm most certainly very different from the girl I was six years ago. I have certainly gained and lost a wide variety of interests. But I am learning to be happy and I hope to bring more of that contentment into my relationship with Craig.
This weekend, I did something special. I was a volunteer at my local buddhist center, the Langri Tangpa Center, and I was lucky enough to receive teachings from Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo. For those of you know don't know who she is, she was a western woman who became a Tibetan Nun in the 60s, and is renowned because she spent 10 years in meditative retreat in a cave. For such a famed recluse, she is a remarkably bright and wonderful woman with a lot of relevant wisdom to share. I never imagined that I one day would be able to receive such company from Tenzin Palmo (let alone meet her in person!) but I was fortunate enough to have this opportunity. She has certainly inspired my path along Buddhism and I am very grateful for all the benefits I've had through it.
Upcoming plans: During the long Anzac Weekend, Craig and I are flying up to Cairns to see my family. This will be the first time in over a year that my entire family will be together so it is rather special and I am very much looking forward to it.
That's it for now! I will try and set more time aside to give back to DeviantArt.
Yours truly,

Well, I would generally use this as a platform to say "Visit my gallery!", but instead I think I'll just say to pay attention to what I just wrote. It may save your life (somehow!)

Your posts are amazing to say the least. You seem to have so much insight on different situations. You are so helpful and caring.
I really hate asking this directly... but over the past few years, I've become quite blunt with my ways... But, I've had a few things happen during my life... that, have affected me in ways that have hurt me quite a bit... Do you think I could talk with you about some of them? I feel like I need to talk about things, but i've never been able to find someone to talk to who can help... I think you may be this person...
Thank you ahead of time,
~Rusten

I was just wandering around the Help With Life forum, and I saw a few of your comments. I am touched by your degree of wisdom and your willingness to take the time to write out such in-depth and heartfelt responses.
It's hard to believe that these words came from a young adult of your age. Whoever your teachers or mentors were, I'm sure they must be very proud of you.
I feel that it's hard to come across genuinely kind people like you nowadays, especially on the internet. I'd just like you to know that your time, patience, and care is greatly appreciated by many (even bystanders like me).
So thank you for sharing insight and lending a helping hand to those in need. May kindness be returned to you tenfold.
Sincerely,
Joanna
