Asian Daughter's Journey
My wish is to be there for Mom and hold her hand as she makes her departure. But obviously, I have no control other than to just take the next indicated action. So it goes, my journey as an Asian daughter who left her home country and her family behind. At the time I naturalized, it was inconceivable that I would not be able to travel home as I wished. Yet such is the “Inconstancy” in life that Buddha taught. I’m trying to respond to whatever arises with open awareness noticing my body, emotions and thoughts. Really all I can do is to do one thing at a time trusting things will work out anyway. My next indicated action is to get vaccinated as soon as I am eligible as of April 1.
