• Food Poisoning - I guess. The doctor was super vague when he said what I had, a direct quote would be, “umm you have poison in stom-umm-ach or…” and that’s it, he even cut off in the middle of the “or…” he the preceded to tell me that he was going to give five different medicines. Whatever. I feel so much better I don’t really care. I’m not 100% today, but it is close enough for me.
• Back at the temple we taught monks English, painted walls, and I took time to ask the Chief Monk if he would give me a lesson on Buddhism. Well one thing led to another, and he asked my friend Fernando and I if we would like to live in the temple next week. The answer was yes, obviously. That means that for the ret of my time in Sri Lanka, I will be living, praying, eating, and learning with Buddhist Monks. I could not have asked for more from this experience.
