"Footsteps of Insights"

Watching football during our last mentoring session was very interesting. I didn't think it would be educational, but it turned out to be. We talked about how the teams played and how they worked together. I was really amazed by how Samtse FC played. We were all supporting them during the match. Unfortunately, they lost to Daga UTD FC. It felt like luck played a big part because both teams were equally good and tough opponents for each other. 

We saw that football is not just a game. It teaches us about teamwork, making plans, and solving problems. Like in football, we need to work together and use our skills in real life too. Watching football also showed us how people from different places can enjoy the same thing. It helped us understand how sports can bring people together. This experience taught us that learning is not only in books. We can learn from everyday things, like watching sports. It also showed that mentoring is not just about teaching facts but also about learning from different experiences.


Furthermore, the four-day Choeshey Leyrim led by His Eminence Tshugla Loben Karma Rangdol was truly eye-opening and beneficial for us. We received numerous blessings and gained new insights. His Eminence emphasized the importance of mastering our minds for clarity and spiritual growth. Although there were moments when I felt drowsy and lost during the sessions, I felt incredibly content and fortunate to have participated. I found myself thoroughly enjoying the experience. Moreover, His Eminence's vibrant energy and persuasive manner left me amazed.

As the Choeshey Leyrim came to an end and I watched His Eminence Tshugla Loben leaving the auditorium, I felt a sense of sadness and emptiness. It was as if something important was missing. Nonetheless, I'm grateful for the opportunity to attend this program, and I've made a promise to chant the Yoe Pa May prayer from now on.

"Reflection of the week"

My days typically proceed smoothly and efficiently, involving engaging in group activities, preparing presentations, doing laundry, playing online games, and spending quality time with my friends. Additionally, last week, my friends and I went for evening walks consistently to refresh our minds, which made me feel relaxed and rejuvenated. Our usual route involves walking to the chorten down near the artificial turf and returning from near the army colony. I thoroughly enjoy these walks with my friends because of the positive vibes and the enjoyment of listening to music while walking.

Moreover, the three-day talk by our former Chief Justice, Lyonpo Sonam Tobgay, was truly enlightening as I gained many new insights and knowledge. I admired Lyonpo's energetic and dedicated presentation style, and I was amazed by the depth of his knowledge and his convincing arguments. I'm grateful for the opportunity to attend such a great presentation.

Finally, my Sunday drew to a close with the leisurely activities of jotting down notes, reading books, and taking a nap.
