Daily activities - robe offering ceremony, growing plants

Dear friends,

In this morning, I went to the Waso robe offering ceremony at a monastery. Robes are offered to monks during this raining season because they usually need them now. They are donated by ceremony like this or individually. And guests were treated with lunch after that.

After that, I went to buy some petrol but I didn't get it because the shop ran out of petrol quota. Now, because of the drop in the value of Myanmar Kyats (MMK) and because the government fixed the petrol price, the shops could not sell petrol with the government price. So, in almost every town in Myanmar, there is a petrol shortage problem.

Then, when returning home, I visited my brother's friend house because she said she would give me some garlic chives plants for me to grow at home. I received some and replanted them at home with bags.

Garlic chives are used as seasoning plants when preparing meat for Chinese dumplings, wantons, etc and they are available all year round unlike onion leeks, which are available in some seasons only. I usually prepare fried dumplings at home so I decided to grow them at home.

Those were some of the activities for today.
Today Reflections
Sometimes, we need to get ourselves used to certain circumstances and preferences like for me, I like perfection and it doesn't help me in every situation. We need to change through Vipassana meditation.
