Dalai Lama

May 4th

Today we went to UC Irvine Bren Events Center, together with 6000 other people. We attended a lecture about Compassion and Leadership by the Dalai Lama. After a long period of waiting and after passing the security, we could enter the building. The Dalai Lama told us that he thinks that to many people are money-driven, probably because they think that money will make them happier. The most important message in my eyes: love your children and teach them to respect other people, who are 'different'. Our children can make a difference.

It was wonderful to see the Dalai Lama in person, hear him speak and experience his wisdom and humor.
