Teens partaking in sexual behavior can possibly receive or transfer sexually transmitted diseases

Would you feel naked if you saw an x-ray of yourself? What we might not see as sexual in current times could be interpreted differently and perhaps even as pornographic not so long ago.

This is an odd (and long) one, which, because it’s not a direct quote, I’ve put in the category of Fake Buddha Stories. Hold onto your headgear! Tara Brach has a blog post called “Inviting Mara to Tea.” Now Mara, in case you’re not aware of him, is a character from the Buddha’s life. He’s what we’d call a “supernatural” being (although Buddhism sees him as entirely natural, but not from our realm of existence). He represents doubt, and so most western Buddhists take his appearances as being a

The poet further expressed his feeling of loneness by recalling his days with his wife, where she
