i think back to what we did last week at the nursing home in Quincy and how everyone got along and helped each other....what's wrong with this picture???
So I'm visiting my grams at the nursing home this am. And I see a group of buddhist volunteers and a monk there. They hung up a picture of the goddess of mercy so I'm guessing they must have been preaching? They were serving noodles, jook, dumplings and some mini-muffins to the seniors. I was standing over Por and making sure she was eating when I hear one of the volunteers complaining to the monk. She and another volunteer disagreed on how to serve the muffins and were arguing! OMGoodness, I couldn't believe it?! Aren't these buddhist people supposed to be calm, serene and peaceful? Did they forget the reason why they were there and the meaning of giving? Well, the other volunteer who was a senior herself started to apologize a few times and chanted Oh Me To Foo or whatever it is that they chant. I almost cracked up laughing!!
