IntroductionTo live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all. -Oscar Wilde

My favorite color is
my father's apple trees in the rain.

My favorite color
is my father's pear trees
in a cloud of bees.

My favorite day is Tuesday.
My favorite window
opens onto two oceans:
one a house
in various stages of ruin and beginning,
and one a book,
whose every word is outcome,
whose every page is lifelong sentence.

My favorite door
opens two ways: receiving
and receiving.

My heart swings between the ways,
from thanksgiving to thanksgiving,
a thousand times a day,
while its naked feet graze
death's knobby head
a thousand times a day.

Belief is never static.

-Li Young Lee

I think compassion is the most important thing. RIght behind that is literacy and the ability to read a map and understand hand gestures when you're in a foreign country. I don't mind jumping on the wrong train. Recently, I've begun to enjoy being alone for days on end. I'm from a big family, so that's a real change. -Tasha
