Samuel's Story
Those who knew me in school knew that I was all show and no go. College was a bust and in the seventies, so was the economy. I joined the United States Air Force and ran into my friend David Watts. I was Honorably Didcharged in September 1977. It wasn't great but I did learn how to endure and how to work.
Funny thing is I learned that no matter where you're from it's all a small town. Oh and it was life changing to butt heads with guys from all over the country.
I returned to Westchester County and found romance and Nam Myoho Renge Kyo. The romance didn't take but the Nichiren Buddhism did....Expand for more
Since that time I have really been engaged in my own life and the lives of many others. Right now I can state that I have no vices--at all. It took me a while--I am after all a father of one and grandfather of three--to learn what really matters in life. I didn't set the world on fire; but I found the secret I was looking for. "Buddhism is the means by which the sad become happy; and the happy,hapier still" Nichiren Daishonin, Writings of Nichiren Daishonin Vol I Thanks for reading my tale of victory. Before chanting my life was always just out of reach--not anymore!!
All the Best
