I am back in Dhagpo once more - my home away from home from whence I have always found great solace and inner joy from the first moment my feet touch its earthen ground.

Dhagpo - It Is Here

It is here I first became a part of this Dharma Family.

It is here I began to learn and grow. It is here I found support and serenity from all that I had been running from, from all that had been chasing me. It was here that I was finally able to tackle head on that which was burdening and weighing my heart down, knowing well that I finally had real support that wouldn’t let me bear it alone. It is here I first picked up a camera and began to click away into a new life wildly apart from anything I could have expected or even imagined for myself. It was here I found my courage. It was here that I found my strength. It was here that my new life began from nothing. Coming back always reminds me of just how much this place (and those who make it so) gave to me when I needed it most, and just how important it is for our Dharma Family as a whole.
