Day 21 In Search of my Blogging Identity “Women of Wisdom Arise”

"I am but a vessel... on a good day...of what heaven speaks…truth integrated into life…but on a bad day… Do you believe we can be like a pitcher pouring inspiring words for thirsty souls?

It was difficult to post this morning and tonight in light of the Haiti tragedy. Any words written seemed ridiculous while watching the suffering on the news and internet.

Day 3 Blogging Identity Quest: Where are you my little Asian beauty?

  I awoke early this morning and could not go back to sleep due to worry over my daughter Elya. She flew from Seoul, Korea to Hong Kong in order to celebrate the New Year with friends—all teaching English overseas in different countries. The last contact was a Christmas Eve video Skype, which was eight …

Day 1 “Blogging Identity Quest” and “Happy New Year!”

My husband and I had a wonderful New Year's celebration in Las Vegas. As the clocked ticked down marking the end of 2009, a video show streamed overhead with visual memories of the past year while fireworks lit up the sky.
