Happy Gohonzon Birthday To Me!!!!

Hey fellow believers, today I celebrate 8 years of practicing Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism as a Soka Gakkai Member! I can't believe how quick time has gone by since then! I remember how hopeless I was when I started, feeling like the best years of my life had gone by and that a career in music was beyond my reach.

To My Lovely Friends- wishing you all a new Beginning, Happy Easter and a Sweet Weekend

And quivers in the sunny breeze.

I think I have a MySpace page but I don't go into it a lot. Got lots of cranks want to show me their porn stuff (sigh) mostly, so I'm a little leery about hoving created in the first place. But I'm supposed to be trying it out for the sake of my company, Kraft.
