I am tired, but not overly exhausted. THIS time, all goes a bit smoother than 2012, when I started this blog, in anticipation of a summer course of Colloqouial Tibetan... (spelling?)
So what goes smoother? A prior knowledge of the letters amongst other - and foremost a great teacher, Lara Bratstein, and wonderful delegates with humour. Only 9 of them.
And last but not least: my husband.
HOWEVER - I am NO longer interested in putting myself in this third-world situation, however, intriguing it seems in the beginning. NOR am I particularly impressed by Tibetans as a whole. Yes, they are a lot more organized than the rest of Kathmandu, it seems, and there is a lot to be admired about the tenacity of translations, the thoroughness of all all they have done for the survival of authentic Dharma.. for that I am eternally grateful. But, as everyone else - people are people, and all sorts indeed. Nothing better nothing worse. Possibly this macho-shit is worse. But that you find everwhere anyway.
For me - this is it. From now on, I will stay in comfortable places and PRACTICE my little (?) ass off - feel ready to do so finally...
pussOkram to everyone!
