I received
the fifth challenge when I was in Houston. I was extremely excited to meet Ms.
Martha Wolfe, Ms. Diane Wright, Ms. Betty Busby, and Ms. Lisa-Marie Sanders
from Viewpoints 9 personally. We gathered together and shared our ideas about
sentiments towards creation. That was a rare moment for us.
I
enjoyed the topic-Behind the Mask, which allows me to do what I want into a
work.
There
were mostly cloudy days in November in San Francisco when I was there. I looked
at the Golden Gate Bridge from a distance. It was hard to see a full view of
that bridge. I believe it was not its intention to hide the beauty. But the
most amazing enchantment was the half-seen; the indistinct look was very
charming that attracts people eagerly to see it clearer. I believe the bridge
looks different in cloudy days, rainy days, and sunny days.
Not only
people put on a mask easily, but objects and events will do the same in
different situation to deal with everything. This is what I thought while
walking on the bridge.
I
then walked down the bridge and saw the beautiful roses that were not affected
by the weather. They did not hide themselves to face the world positively. Or
was it the beautiful roses had their own magic mask to cover themselves?
As with all these challenges it will be exciting to see the individual interpretations. I like your Nature analogies Misik.
ReplyDeleteDear Sue,
DeleteHow are you? I am worried about you when I heard the news of natural disaster in Australia.
Yes, the challenge allowed me to think deeply outside Taiwan. This was such a rare experience and will be a meaningful learning to me.
I hope my work will go smoothly.
Sorry Hsin-Chin, I have accidently called you Misik! We are all well although our city had some very bad weather last weekend. We were not in the affected area.
