Long long ago, there lived a poor merchant, who relied on his trade for a living.
One day the poor ancient merchant didn’t sell enough jade, and he could not support his family anymore. The merchant went to his mother for help. “Please mother, I cannot support my family, can you help me?” The merchant’s mother was displeased with her son, and refused to help him. As the merchant sauntered away from his mother’s house, he stumbled, and fell into a deep ditch.
The merchant stood up, and looked around, as he realised, that there was no way out. “What am I going to do!” thought the merchant. All of a sudden, a cloud appeared over the ditch. The cloud descended towards the poor ancient merchant, as he saw that a very ancient looking man was standing on the cloud.

“Who are you?” questioned the startled merchant. My name is Xian Chi Mei, and I am your…..

    I do personally, and I do believe in God too. There is no set "Buddhist" way unlike many Western religions.

    Each Buddhists go down their own path. Buddhsits aren’t the type to point out who is right or incorrect about religions or anything. They are willing to share and teach but they will not walk around and preach it or force others to follow their way only or anything. So if one Buddhist believe in guardian angels, other will respect the belief and let them carry on.

    That’s one gorgeous thing about Buddhism.

    Mainly in ‘all that jazz’
    Why do you start your message with the word ‘okay’? It is completely un-necessary and brands you as a teenager.
    Your ‘creative’ writing would improve if you knew how to use commas correctly and the right way to construct sentences.
    Truth of the matter is that, when writing creatively, one doesn’t necessarily have to tell the truth. You can make up detail and fully use your imagination ….
