The Merit Has Been Performed…Why Does The Kamma Follow Me?
Her dad was a first-rate Crime Prevention Policeman. Whatever province he moved to, the robbers would be scared. He also liked to perform merits at several temples. Her mom is a kindhearted person. Her brother is a moody guy. When he was a teenager, he preferred to associate with guys who were likely to be womanizing, hunting and fishing. As an adult he likes to drink, flirt and gamble. However, he was the person who ended up taking care of our parents more than the others.

Oh! A Miracle
There was news critical of the temple. There were claims that the temple had shot a laser beam towards the sun. Hearing this claim made me laugh. It was impossible. If the temple had been able to do this, why did they not enable me to view it? I was at the event but I did not see anything.
