Journal 20.10.2023 11.33 am Perceptions

Dear Journal,
Pa made me this beautiful French Toast for breakfast. I really look forward to Pa's breakfasts on Sunday. I made a cup of tea for myself and complained to Ma a little about her. She was hurt. I must be more accepting of her.
Then I felt bad and went and gave her lots of kisses on her cheek and told her what a sweet person I think she is. I love my mother and I really value her presence in my life.
Shakyamuni Buddha says that this world we live in, this world on Earth in the Milky Way, is the world of endurance. We all must endure something or the other in this Saha World of endurance. There is no end to the endurances we must undertake.
Nichiren says: "There are not two lands pure and impure in themselves. The difference solely lies in the good or evil of our minds." A pure land is achieved by purity of our minds.
That brings me to the matter of perception. We live as we perceive.
My life is adorned with beautiful people. And I love all of them. Some characters I encounter pose a resistance in me but I endure beautifully.
My perceptions:

Ma
She is the most important person in my life. She has given me life, sustenance and love. Sometimes she can be harsh, obstinate, unreasonable and what can be perceived as cruel. But she is sweet, friendly, talkative, lively, interesting, full of love, proud, beautiful, egoistic, very very sensitive and a tad too demanding. She is emotional and I know that she gets disappointed easily because she has so many expectations, giving rise to her few negativities. She is persevearant, disciplined and extremely hardworking and she really values her relationships.  She is argumentative and the most beautiful person I know. I owe everything I am to her. I can keep writing about her and extol on her. I'll write a book about her some day. She is imaginative and creative. I love her to bits.

Pa
Pa is my sweetheart. He is my teddy bear. I really respect my father. He is a kindhearted,  gentleman who has a sweet, noble heart. He is sophisticated but doesn't indulge in himself. He believes in simple living and high thinking. He is sporty, the most disciplined person I know and one of my favourite people in this world. He is accepting of other people and friendly. He can be quite pessimistic sometimes but he goes around handing hope to all who need it. He is well-read and well-spoken, so is Ma. People generally tend to love Pa easily. These days he spends time working, exercising and watching TV. I love spending time with him and he is one of my closest friends. I also believe he is handsome.

Chotto bacha
My Chotto, I love him the most. He is fiery, passionate, goal-oriented, disciplined. He gets angry very easily and is surrounded by friends. He is an animal lover, very sweet, has suffered his setbacks and is one of my closest friends. He is irritable, impatient and he learns easily from his mistakes. He doesn't accept flaws in his relationships and can be quite demanding. He is interesting and health conscious. He is loveable and extremely handsome and charming. He is my hope and I worry about him. I love him to bits.

My A
I love him. He has the sweetest heart I have seen in a person. He is also my favourite person in the whole wide world. He is kind, generous, interesting, loving and loveable. He has beautiful kind eyes. He loves indulging himself and letting his hair down. He is interesting and the cutest human being I know with a creative mind and sometimes perceptions that are hard to understand which I feel bring about pain and difficulties in his life. He is a great dancer. He can use harsh words sometimes and be very demanding, hence he is not always happy in his relationships. He would do better to allow some breathing space to people to suss the waters and find their way about. He is well-read and one of the most beautiful people I know. Of course,  I must add that I think he is extremely handsome and an exemplary person with great character. I could write tomes about him but I think I'll stop now. 

There are other people I love absolutely like Eshna and Ch Mashi and Q and my cute Koala bear and my other friends. I'll make them characters in my books.

I met Ns ji when I went for a walk today and he said he wants to discuss something with me so I called him home. I'll chant and get to working on my Yi sheet now.

This is going to be a wonderful day.
I am feeling:
Loving
Accepting
Wiser for writing this post
Eager to face the day
Happy
Sentimental

The other day I took out the Zara set that A had bought for me to wear at the Trident event but after putting it on I wasn't too happy with its flares and buxomness. So I've worn it today so that I don't have to send it for ironing. I'm feeling good. I love my life and the people in it and I'm grateful for them and all my experiences.
Love,
Me.
