You don’t ever need to be anybody else,
BE YOU here and now!
The balance between “do as the Romans do” and “be yourself” as I moved from Taipei, a big capital city to Ridgway, a small arty snow mountain town. From the old East to the modern west, from a restrained buddhism culture to a passionate free expressing culture. There’s of course a little bit of a “cultural shock” that I needed to come back to myself and ask myself who I really am? And what’s the life purpose of and the role that I’m playing being here now?

Beyond all the cultural and city/ town differences, I think it’s more important to understand and show respect for the difference. We don’t have to be who we are not, or act like somebody else. But be who we are and exist in the harmony way that’s good
for the place with good intentions.
Center yourself, find out who you are and be real in peace and harmony.
That’s why you are here, not anybody else.

Anandamayi 🖤 shanti
