I have just sent my  son off to college (software engineering). I sent our daughter off a couple years ago (television and theatre arts management), but somehow since I still had two at home that wasn't cataclysmic. This is.

One left. A little one, to be sure, (daughter, 10 years old), but I really have to find something to make my life  - for decades; the women in my family live to advanced ages - meaningful behond the grave.

Work isn't it. (I have an advanced degree in chemistry and a collection of interesting jobs - they're not it. The children will make their own mark, but that's only partially due to me.) Hobbies aren't it, unless they serve some social purpose. What should I do?

A Quick Overview of Buddhism. The Buddhist community is one of the largest growing groups of believers in the world today. It is especially gaining interest in the West where people are searching for alternatives to traditional religion. What proceeds is an attempt at giving a brief overview of Buddhist history and teachings. Please understand that Buddhism is a large and complicated area to research and because there are many different understandings of Buddhism what I've written here may not apply to everyone. Indeed, because this is really an overview I have only really scratched the surface! [kuro5hin.org]
