I had a wonderful trip to phajodhing during the auspicious (birth anniversary of Guru Rinpoche) day with my family. It was a long and tiring journey. Before our trip we planned to eat our lunch at the phajodhig tsho. We all moved out early in the morning at five so as to reach our destiny on time. On the way I saw a small tail with fur. I, at first thought it was a dog but when I told this to my parents, I finally found out that that creature was a bear. I then walked at side of my parents. We reached at Phajodhing after a long six hour walk. There I can feel the beauty of the place. The foul air replaced by the fresh air and the ugly polluted environment replaced by the green grass and forest. I felt like I was in paradise. Sometimes I cannot describe the place because it is beyond my description. There were several lhakhangs at a distance from each other. We visited all the lhakhangs and offered butter and prostrated. We also visited some sacred place (Ney). It was already two and we are still at phajodhing. I thought we would never get a chance to visit the tsho. Some says it is a long two hours walk. So the plan was unsuccessful. At three we started to move back but I felt like I was moving from paradise to the lost paradise.

The following day past without any fun and activity but eagerly waiting for the final of 2014 world cup between Germany and Argentina. I was with Germany and my three brother were with Argentina. We had a bet. If I wins I get five hundred each from my three brothers and if I lose, I should give five hundred each to my brothers. It was a great match. Fortunately the Germans won by one goal and lifted their fourth trophy. It was sorrowful and heart touching when the players were crying. I won the bet. That was the greatest bet I had ever won.
