Spirit of Humanity

To be frank, I was stuck and had no idea which theme or concept to use for this postcard design. The year of 2004 was a turbulent year. There were many disasters happening in Asia and other parts of the world. Our so called neighbors lost their loved ones, their homes, they have no clean clothes to wear, no food to eat, and their hearts are deeply broken. How do you feel while sitting on the couch watching TV, playing soccer in the field, drinking clean water or showering with essential oil cleanser on your skin? What have you done to console?

During this period of time I came across this organization called Tzu Chi by Dharma master Cheng Yen, I was inspired by what they have done to help the victims, truly amazing!

Master Cheng Yen: “A stream of purity which started out as but a drop was able to grow & sip into every corner of the world purifying human hearts and transforming the turbulent minds of people in this world. To do this, the spirit of humanity is needed.”

The postcard was design with the mixed feelings in my heart. I wanted to help and I took the first step by donating some money and also getting involved in the activities to help. I hope you can too! Let's spread the loving kindness to the world.

Upon reaching the restaurant we were greeted by beautiful decorated rose petals and candle lights. Its Cava restaurant and bar, serve Spanish cuisine, special wines and cocktails. Only 3 tables were occupied at that time. We then ordered entrée of half a dozen escargots with butter and herbs; I went for baked cod fish, and hubby a lamb shank. Coupled with beer, I know, how inappropriate to have beer in that environment. Anyway, the food came in a short while when we chit chatted away happily. Other Valentines slowly arrived and filled up the entire restaurant. The placements of tables were a little too close to each other therefore I was a bit coy to snap photos of my food. We waited for a least half and hour before our main course was served. I was running out of patience, hubby jokingly sai...

Is Falun Gong a Cult?

When you ask me why Falun Gong is good; I have no idea how to tell you because you talk and retaliate too fast, I can’t cope up with your argument. First of all, if you were a fair person, you would want to find out the truth about things, you would have wanted to listen to 2 sides of a story, similar to solving conflicts at work. The conflict between colleagues A and B, you would want to hear the reasons from both sides before you unfairly decide on things. You only search for the bad side of Falun Gong story to hear and refuse to accept there are millions of good reasons why people practice Falun Gong. Have you read them? Have you truly hear them?
