Rarely asked questions

Why this site?
Fairly egoistic reasons, I suppose. There is probably nothing on this site that contributes to the worlds' knowledge. Actually, you might be unlucky enough to be forcefed a chunk of science in the random text section, but apart from that, duhkha.com is my very personal playground. But please do come in, have a go at the swings, join me in the sandbox, talk to me... if you don't, the fun will have ended for me when the site went online.

It doesn't work in my browser?!
Sorry 'bout that. I know old browsers don't do scrolling textboxes or other fancy stuff - I've told many a student to avoid them for this very reason. It's just that I like scrolling boxes. And that this is my site.

What is duhkha?
Duhkha, also Dukkha (Sanskrit/Pali), main subject of the four Noble Truths of Buddhism, usually translated as "Suffering". Not as pessimistic as it may sound -life can be duhkha in the sense that everything enjoyable carries a long-term potential to cause pain. To me, this idea is more accessible than "Life is great because God loves me." Just a matter of personal preference. Suum Cuique. I'm still a Catholic. (But maybe not for very much longer.)

Who are you?
Female, born 1974 in KrautCentral, now based in London, UK. Single, no baggage, spend about half of my life online (rest sleeping, reading, being bossed around, writing, photographing, juggling, saxophoning, eating, pubbing).
'Nuff said.
No, no contact mobile number. Sorry.
