Embracing the theme that has woven through the tapestry of my life - "fearlessness" - I've navigated a myriad of challenges, each an opportunity to confront and triumph over fear. From immigration and career shifts to the ebb and flow of relationships, frequent relocations, and facing natural disasters like volcanic eruptions and wildfires, my journey has been a mosaic of resilience. The canvas, my sanctuary and confidant, has witnessed my evolution. It became the haven where I painted my response to life's tests, refusing to be defined by the structures of bricks and mortar I left behind. In the face of separation, the passing of loved ones, and health adversities, I chose to build my refuge on the canvas - a spiritual home that transcends the physical. Recently, revisiting "Silver City" (affectionately named after the paint color that adorned our home) for the first time since our 2018 evacuation was a poignant experience. The resilience of our home, standing amidst the threat of lava, left me in awe. It symbolized not just survival but the enduring spirit of creation. The question that lingers is whether I'll return to Hawaii to live. The answer remains uncertain, held in the delicate balance of life's unfolding chapters. We shall see. The canvas of my life continues to be painted with hues of hope, and the future awaits, promising new landscapes of courage and possibility. Comments are closed.
