Hard really to be born with a human body; free from handicaps; live in a country free from religious bias; from war; an ethnic circle that allows me to explore our faith freely; a family that allows me to choose my religion and of course to know buddhism.
And that's why I would seize every opportunity to know the Dharma, and to practice the Dharma. Cause I never know the opportunity might never comes again.
So what's so good to be in Buddhism? It doesn't conflict my everyday chores. It is definitely practical and logical. And its the only religion that teaches you to let go of dogmas and question our old beliefs :)
Recently got a fair share of interactions with people that is superstitious as well as people that is totally too caught up with their ideas that no further wisdom could grow from. What's so similar about this two group of people is their stubborn attachment to beliefs. And what usually surrounds their life are recurring episodes of problem.

Hard the winning of a human birth.
Hard the life of mortals.
Hard the chance to hear the true Dhamma.
Hard the arising of Awakened Ones.
