From a Cambodian boy.
Obviously, Life is too short when we looking back to see our past history, It was like yesterday, but it is too long when we are looking for future, it was like waiting for something. Anyway, everything happens for the reason, just to be positive and keep good feeling then we can do more things. Well, Ladies and Gentlemen today I wanna share with you about my bitter history life. Here it is; My name’s Veasna. I’m a Cambodian boy and I was born on June 06, 1986 in the Kingdom of Cambodia at a small village which very closes to the mount. My mother was died when I was two years old. I have seven members; there are my father and my two brothers and three sisters, and I the youngest child in my family. I became as a novice when I was thirteen years old for some reasons of my father. I had spended seven years as a life of novice to carry on the teaching of Lord Buddha and I was tried to study heard in other to reach my read and writing goal then I adopted it. Moreover, I always passed Pali and Dharma exam every year, there is never a year I do not did the high score. After that I had opportunity moved to live and study in the city since then my life was changed. I was ordained as a monk when I was twenty years old at the same old Temple where I became a novice. After all, I wanna know more about the world and learn something new, then I decided go to Thailand in the year 2006. Here’s in Thailand I learned a lot of new things like, I can’t find a temple for stay, and people insulted me etc, and met all kind of people. Finally I found a temple the abbot accepted to live in his temple. The temple name WAT THATON located at the North of Thailand Chaing Mai. During my life is enjoying of study I had a big problem with my Visa. Thus to my Visa was expired and I didn’t had enough money to get renew, and then I thought it would be better go back home. Meanwhile, there were a man who had a long and sharp nose white skin and no hair like me came and talked to me a very long time. That man known as Baje Sati, he is a very kind person. He can understand my problem in a short time and he not hesitated to handle me a help. It was amazing. He gave me not only a lot good ideas and plans but also he gave me some help of budgets for my study. What I ‘m trying to mention is that we just known each other in a short time but he gave lot of helps to a strange people like me. He was like my really Father. And I wanna tell him and the whole world know that all my achievement today are half from his help and advices, Whiteout him, there is no me today. It is said that, the most completely giving help should be in the right place on the right time to the right people which mean that even your help is not a lot but it is likely very big help and unforgettable that can’t find word to describe for those who really need a help in the difficult time. At the recently, I have been leaving the life of monkhood since I graduated Bachelor Degree from MCU University in Thailand on August 11, 2011. Now it’s time for me again to learn something new, you know what? My first time always happened to me every day. My first job, I worked as a Cambodian Union labor guide for protect and take care Cambodian labors located near Suwannaphum Airport in Thailand. Seriously, I worked there by my heart and sometimes I thought like I was a Prime minister, I wanna my country have a real change for a better lives of Cambodian People as well. Actually, it’s hard for a country like Cambodia which not only poor but also people are lack of education to develop its country. After, I worked there for a year then I moved to work as a teacher for some reasons that is my present job. I teach Cambodian and English language to students at private high school which located very close to Thailand -Cambodian Border. It is said that teaching people how to catch fish is better than to give people a fish. Last but not the list, I would like to thank to Daddy, Sate who seem really have big and great heart. As I have known he helped people a lot. He was my idol teacher hahaha. So, may Buddha bless you, your family and people around you who work with you,who live with you and who know you
. Whit Faithfully yours, Veasna,
