courage

Crispy air
High and blue sky
Saturday afternoon
Floating white clouds
Sunshine in the cold air
Maple trees are turning silver or red.
Sipping Starbucks coffee in its hometown


I am enjoying the quiet moment I barely have in a week. I am a new kid in the block, getting my feet wet. Everyday I go extra miles to fight against everything. Presumably, I am not the only one in the situation. Learning to dance with tight schedule gracefully is tough. Learning to survive in the new setting is an art. It’s always been a challenge and I welcome it. Fortunately, I know my friends are there ready to give me a big, warm hug, no matter where they are ---Taiwan, America and Palau.
