Buddhism,

As this year is racing through, I am desperate to bring buddhism back into the family.
My mother's side of the family is mongolian, and buddhist.
My grandmother moved here from a far away country, had four children, three husbands who are all dead, no money, nothing when she came.
Government sent all the children to chrsitain boarding schools, with nuns, etc.
This ended the buddhism cycle in my family.

My brother started learning buddhism last year, as I am this year.

Tonight I learned what I want to do with my life cycles as a Buddhist.
I want to reach the Buddha within one to two years.
Find out if I have lived a previous life, if so, become a good buddhist and start my Noble Eightfold Path.
This requires a lot of work.
Yet, it all starts with connecting with the Buddha.

I think it will be really cool to see that I have lived a previous life, and that it turned out good and that is why I am a human now.

Once the Noble Eightfold Path is complete, I wish to become a God.
Good karma-Rebirth into another human.
Bad karma-No rebirth at all, demon, ghost, spirit in hell, or animal.
