Buck Moon
It’s full moon again, Buck Moon now. Last full moon, I was enjoying the moon rise in the Sierras, more particular on Tioga pass, entering HWY 395, the gateway to solitude.

Morning Flowers
Morning is sacred, everything is pure and newly born. Your mind is quiet, pure like morning dew; you can hear the flowers whisper, and the birds answer.

Got a little upset, carrying my lunch to the yard. A bird just flew to our apple tree, perched on the branch, between the lush leaves, peeking at me. “Are you upset too? ” I whisper to the bird. He kept watching me. A breeze coming, wind chimes singing out loud like music, the bird…

Embrace the Void
“A house is useful not because of its walls, but because of the space they enclose.” – Lao zi I always find abandoned houses fascinating, maybe it’s the essence that finally emanates when only a skeleton is left. The essence of the house stays the longest, like the soul of a house, like fine wine,…

Raccoon
Close to midnight, I heard some sounds in the yard, looking out, our peach tree is dramatically shaking by some force. Wait, the fruits on that tree have been totally picked, with the help of squirrels, no, with our help, to be accurate. I ran outside, there’s obviously something behind the tree, I shine the…
My Journey
I like to map my journey, keep track of my path, which includes my mind and thoughts.
This blog is to jot down things that matter to me, how I arrived where I am and how I process my stride. This is to leave my mark for this trip, for similar souls down the road that are meant to connect, through time or space.
This site is devoted to my father, the person who led me to this world and helped me to find my place.
