Today, as I was sitting under the mango tree in my pleasure garden, I realized that I have become what I feared I would become. I began a journey for enlightenment but I did not finish it. I feel guilty and am disgusted at what I have become. For this reason I have decided to leave all my riches behind and resume my original journey to Nirvana. I will leave Kamala behind as well. I have decided to go out to the world and seek my peace and enlightenment once more.
There is a typo in the title, it should be: "Samsara". The last part of the first sentence is a little repetitive and confusing, maybe if you reworded it, it would be more understandable. I believe the second sentence should be, "I began a journey towards enlightenment..." Overall, this is a fantastic journal entry. Good job!

No Jenna, it can go either way. Is there something significant in the mango tree? Why is Siddhartha always "reborn" under a tree?

I was wondering the same thing. What is so magical about fruit trees? I mean, don't get me wrong, i love them, but is there something special about them?
