2066. imagine…



one paper heart 
lifting up, up and away,
imagine…


 


Life is story. The other day I was playing around with this picture, and then I saw this quote, “Your life is story. Right well. Edit often.”




2065. cat and dog


the cat
creeping on tender paws
doesn’t blink

 



This is a picture of a card from a friend wishing me a happy birthday. She said the kitty’s playing with yarn and eating long noodles. Looks fun! From the time I could use chopsticks, I ate long noodles for my birthday year after year after year. This custom of eating long noodles on your birthday signifies living a long life. I’m still here.😘

I was born in the Chinese Year of the Dog. Dog people are said to be friendly, responsible, observant, and sometimes stubborn. Next time around, I’d like to be a cat, so I’ll aim for the Chinese Year of the Tiger. Tigers are king of beasts—courageous, adventurous, honest and direct, and they can be stubborn too!😘




2064. flying east


beginnings:
cut, fold, snip, fold, paste….
ten thousand times
*
listening
to chinese music, thinking
of my father


 

Beginning now, another origami composition with little birds….wondering where they will lead me….drifting all the way home to China.
