new country for old ben: April 2009
http://newcountryforoldben.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 30, 2009. I've been wanting to visit the Factory 798 district. Of Beijing since we first arrived in China, but we didn't really have a good time to explore the place until last week. The galleries were on par with the Great Wall for me. That's not my characteristic hyperbole, either. It's hard to get across the scale of his sculptures. They're gigantic. They make you feel dwarfed by them in the best possible way. Links to this post. Wednesday, April 15, 2009. Links to this post. Is the bl...

new country for old ben: December 2008
http://newcountryforoldben.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 21, 2008. It was a funeral. While it was still dark this morning I heard voices down in the street and saw this strange procession of what I assume were relatives and friends carrying belongings from the apartment across from us and putting them into cars and vans. The flowers were all gone too. Just a moment ago, at 7:13 am, fireworks erupted and chased away evil spirits. Links to this post. Saturday, December 20, 2008. Links to this post. Links to this post.

new country for old ben: October 2008
http://newcountryforoldben.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 29, 2008. Burning spirit money in my neighborhood. Yesterday I saw something strange when I was walking down our street, on my way to go teach at my school. There were these charcoal circles on the octagon sidewalk tiles, and little piles of burnt paper. I sort of pushed the image to the back of my mind, and then forgot about it until this afternoon.

On Gratitude | Stephanie Germaine
https://stephaniegermaine.com/2013/12/29/on-gratitude
December 29, 2013. Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. In June, I took a writing class at Inprint Houston. Because I wanted to share stories with others and get feedback on my writing. That class transformed me. After class one evening, the amazing Dr. Lacy Johnson. Seeing my brother graduate. Yesterday, I s...
