149 – Being with Teachers in Taiwan

I feel like we were just getting started in this conversation. Abby, Ari, and Jordan live in Taiwan and teach English there. They also collaborate on the Free China Podcast. On their media site, they discuss various political and social issues. These three make me optimistic about the future! Listen in as they discuss how…

75 – Writing – The Tea Shop

I’ve been writing a lot the past two years. It helps me know what I think (most writers can relate to that). When I went through my decostruction, and then began to work hard on myself and dealing with the things I struggle with, it was very helpful to be able to write. Laura took…

The Practice

The events in the Tea Shop were hard to put in chronological order, but I think it happened just after we began to share tea and before his wife brought out the food.  He just stood up and began demonstrating what Tanya described as part of his “practice.”  To be clear, he wasn’t describing his…
