"I am done. this world is not worth it, when the Dalai Lama can't party with Desmond Tutu!", a photo by Wonderlane on Flickr.
Sometimes I wonder if His Holiness the Dalai Lama is going to keep coming back to help a world that is so stubborn he can't live in his own country, in his own house there, and he can not see his own friends, his own people, something most of the rest of us take for granted ...
Not to mention the much worse things he puts up with, and with no resentment, just patiently.
Then I remember what he said about his palace. The Dalai Lama said that someday his great huge white palace on the hill will decay and fall apart from water. Yes, rain will bring that huge place down.
But, of course, that means that he will still be here and will know that drafty old rat infested building is gone.
I hope that whoever claims His Holiness' palace makes lots of money from it, like any carnival, so that they take very good care of it, in a good way that it lasts a long time. I hope that over his many incarnations here, we provide him with wonderful places to live for as long as he wishes, for as long as there is rain, even longer.
You are so very right Danny ("I am done. this world is not worth it, when the Dalai Lama can't party with Desmond Tutu!"). But as he humself said: "Never give up. No matter what is going on in the world, never give up. Improve the heart." Cause he never gives up hope. He just reschedules.
