You're in China?!
Really awesome fisheye photo! And wow, I don't possess any of those qualities. I really need to though, huh?
New blog name, eh? I like :)
What a lovely quote. That first picture is brilliant.
I love the quiet ambiguity of your words and photographs. I always feel like I can connect.
Last nite (as a result of my insomnia) I picked up a book on my bedside trunk - The Teachings of Buddha. I read it years ago, but I'm falling in love with it all over again, and wouldn't you know, the timing of the words are perfect. Kinda funny how that happens.
i am loving the new header!! the little guy in the 3rd photo is so cute!
Wow, great photos!!!

I'm in love with the simplicity of your blog. ♥
I just adore the colors of these images, not to mention the exotic nature. You always notice such interesting details in each place you seem to visit. Is this in LA?

I love the little paper that was given to you.

It might be sacrilegious to post this response here, but... you need to go to Ihop! I think they still have pumpkin pancakes. It's most definitely an essential American experience (why is it that so many of those are fast food related?). I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving, as well!
Beautiful words and post. When I lived in Asia I loved visiting the temples. They are so full of peace and calmness.
Beautiful post and pics! It's all so true:)
Love the new look of the place. And that quote is so true, although it's usually harder to follow than it seems. Glad you found some peace of mind though =]
aww great thought, I love the last two pictures - you captured amazing depth of field in the 2nd photo.
