Wanting
to be a writer when I was fresh out of college, instead, I became a business
woman for decades. I loved to take pictures, but my intense career prevented me
from picking up any hobby outside work. Now that I am retired, and I want to
catch up what missed in the prime period of my life.
When
I used to write in Taiwan, I used my native language Mandarin. Having lived in
US for almost thirty years, I am no longer fluent with my literal Chinese. At
the same time I am not perfect in English as my first language is predominately
rooted in me.
In
the years I have lived here, not only my language has been a challenge, but I
also have to work on my cultural conflict and compromise. I have two grown-up
daughters who are more in tune with my Caucasian husband than myself. I live in Oregon where my circle of friends
are mostly speaking the same language as my own family.
I am
not good to express myself fully through either of the spoken languages;
however, I found freedom and urge of expressions through my writing and
photography. My love for the divine Nature inspires me and She provides me
infinitive resources for my creative work.
I have
so much that I want to do with my photography and I can easily indulge myself
in my creative world for hours and hours.
I am certainly not an expert in photography. I am still experimenting
and learning every day.
My
blog is here to share what I know with the friends who have the same interest
as me and grow our passion together.
