apologies for the page quality, do you think it looks messier then usual? Cos my scanner is acting up really badly (as in it took e about 6 tries to scan this page in, and even then it didnt scan in the last few mm of the page.
Anyway, I hope it isnt super noticable!
I've been reading the manga 'Buddha' (guess what its about? :P) Its such an inspiring comic. Because it spans over 80 years, you really get to know a lot of characters so well, its really nice. Its 8 volumes long, and I only have one more volume to go! Of course there's alot of Buddhist themes in there, which are very interesting. Buddhism feels more like a philosophy then a religion, since its so focused on how to deal with problems in this life time rather then the after life. I've read that many people of other religions still incorporate Buddhism into their life as a way of thinking rather then anything more. I feel in this age it is more considered religion because of old it is. I dig it though, Ive already solved alot of frustrations just by learning some of the ways of thinking involved in Buddhism. It stops you from worrying about the future so much, and helps you feel more in control of your time/life ^^
