Liberation is the inevitable fruit of the path and is bound to blossom forth when there is steady and persistent practice. The only requirements for reaching the final goal are two: to start and to continue. If these requirements are met there is no doubt the goal will be attained. This is the Dhamma, the undeviating law.

Excellent! Sadhu!

Congratulations!

What a great name! The best part about that name is that it is Buddhist (Maha-Maya-devi, Buddha's mother) and still very Western and modern.

Oh dear, I think I better get myself a chair closer to the ground so I don't hurt myself when I fall off it again!
Congrats again Bodum "Good" Boy!

Wonderful news!!! Congrats :) Is this your first? (Sorry if you already answered this.. I zipped thru the comments.) I have two boys, and I miss that 'girl enery' (being the only girl in the house). I'm very happy for you and your wife.
