If Only the Rocks Can Talk
Jet skiers, wind surfers, laughter flying across the water, camp site music and barbecue immersed with summer heat at Millerton Lake, in the Foothills of the Sierras. Can you imagine? Underneath the waters of Millerton Lake sleeps the original town of Millerton, built in 1852. That’s where the peaceful Yokuts native people lived, weaving their…

Full Moon Walk in the Mountains
I took my first full moon walk at Joseph Grant park. It was from 8-10pm, led by two rangers. We were half an hour late, fortunately we caught up with the group just before dark. There were about 15 people, from kids to seniors, some with fancy night vision light (which l learned is a…

上帝的游乐场
有的地方，让你一见如故，似曾相识；一别十年，回来依然草木亲切，就像回归故里。这里有冰天雪地的严冬，酷暑淋漓的盛夏；最高的雪山和最开阔的旷野，孤独的路通往天尽头，只有天边的晚霞在绽放。 这里是北美本土大陆最高点和最低点相遇的地方，终年不化的Sierra积雪依然在阳光下晶莹，亿万年风化的巨型滚石散落在辽阔的Owens Valley, 如大珠小珠落玉盘，与雪山遥相呼应，巨石以房子为基数，以指数递增，形态惊骇怪异，场景开阔震撼。看起来散乱无序，因为我们太渺小，呆得不够久。 站在谷中，风中有着特有的印第安人sage的味道，死亡谷深处的干冽气息混着Sierra山云端的积雪。原始的荒凉在蓝天白云下悠然古今，天地豁然开朗。地球上最古老的树依然高高屹立在万尺山巅，鸟瞰着下面的世界游走。这里是上帝的游乐场。

Eastern Sierra – God’s Playground
Here is where it feels home to me! Where the highest point in continental America meets the lowest; the natural erosion shaped boulders in different sizes spread in the Owens Valley in the most random way, we’re talking size of a house or even bigger, with the backdrop of High Sierra peaks chiseled by ice…

快乐可以来得很突然
昨晚天一擦黑，窗口刚有丝丝凉意，抬眼惊艳：月出东山，尽管草莓满月已过，但橙黄如明镜突然照进屋来，仿佛推窗入画，令人心旷神怡。 一早，太阳只露了个脸把我从床上叫醒，便躲进了云层，尽管没有太阳，但仍暑气闷热。毕竟是仲夏了。夏为大，天地间万物无限生长，生命力旺盛蓬勃，日长夜短，万物不忍浪费时间，多看一眼世界精彩。 起来后忽然听到院里唏倏的声响，以为松鼠又来偷桃吃：太明目张胆了，闹这么大动静，赶快跑出去：竟然是下雨了，硕大的雨点砸在屋顶，噼啪作响，顶着太阳。现在是旱季呀！哪有那么多规矩，精灵如雨，率性从容，得从容处且从容！ 美好如月随行，扶窗入框；快乐如雨飘洒，随风入夏。快乐可以来得很突然： 推窗清风入室；抬眼明月入画。

Perfect Moment
I saw these pretty leaves last week in my backyard, excited and can’t wait to see the whole tree turning red, what a perfect moment. This morning, those red leaves had fallen, though some other leaves are still turning red, which reminds me, the perfect moment is now… as perfect as it gets.

Pilgrims in Tibet
I wanted to share this story which I shared with my Yoga class yesterday, the theme was gratitude. Many years ago, I visited Lhasa, Tibet and their downtown: Barkhor Street, like Santana row for San Jose. When we arrived there, it’s packed with vendors and full of people: tourists like us, vendors and bargainers. And…

红蜻蜓
夏天的美好，落在红蜻蜓的翅膀上，山中无所不在的葱茏绿荫，傍晚不眠不休的田野虫唱。夏日星空下暑热渐消的大地上，恣意生长的崴蕤草木仍在向上生长，不分昼夜，生命的无限张力在天地间尽情释放，虫在唱歌，鸟在啁啾，人在倾听，今晚无人入睡，这里是热气腾腾的人间。

春在枝头
不觉中树尖已钻出新绿，鲜嫩水灵，充满着生机，仿佛能看到生命力在一点点涌动，推陈出新，直到惊艳于干涸了一冬的枝头。美好从心底油然而生，一切又重新开始了。 春天的花儿在阳光下闪烁着，晶莹剔透，纯净轻柔，纤尘不染，如玉如丝。美好如斯，初心如雪。春天的故事从这里开始。 等一树花开时的期待才是春天的美好，因为 一切都在来的路上，一切皆有可能。走过冬天的人也像大自然一样走入了春天，焕然一新，步履轻盈。送走了早春三月的雨细杏花香，又迎来了光风霁月的桃花映日红。 过了一冬的黑白世界，突然眼前一亮，生命的色彩，夺目绽放着，令人为之一振，原来世界有这么多新鲜纯净的原色，藏在冬天的深处，只待冬眠一并醒来。当眼睛已习惯了冬天的素笔白描，心还会重新渲染春天的水墨丹青吗？ 走入春天，脚步慢些，再慢些。
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.
