21 November 2010: This photo was taken during an evening walk in the city of Taipei, Taiwan. CRC had just been released from lectures during the day. Magnolia Morris and I decided to stretch our legs and take photos. We were peeking into an antiques shop and I saw this reflection on the windowpane.
5 November 2010: The last night of our meditation retreat in Thailand, we celebrated our new friendships with the monks by lighting lanterns and sending them into the air. This photo captures a young monk and a lighter colliding.
3 November 2010: During a visit to schools in Northern Thailand, the CRC are students became the guests of honor as several children performed local dances and acrobats. Julia, on the left, was kneeling next to our teacher Ven. Pra Chai who was close to several soldiers standing by as we all watched the amazing performance. When I looked over at them all taking photos of the same thing, I laughed and remembered how similar we humans are, despite the different uniforms we are wearing.
27 November 2010: A plethora of Buddha statues surround a prominent temple in the city of Chiang Mai, Thailand. Most of them are still intact and in full repair. Others, however, like this one, are missing a few parts. The Buddhists who offer the temple alms and offerings nevertheless decided to lay a plastic cup of water at the feet of this sitting Buddha. Hopefully, his thirst has been quenched.
