At Kuangsheng, my mom and uncle went around to some of the stores looking for wood carvings to buy. In the meantime, I snapped off photos of some of the works when the storekeepers weren't looking. :-P

One of the proudest attributes that woodcarvers like to boast about is how they carve entire pieces out of a single block of wood. This piece is one such accomplishment.

There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle. - Albert Einstein

Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies. - Shawshank Redemption

We walk through our lives so focused on our daily tasks and griefs. It's important to realize that there is always hope, because without fail, there will always be a touch of color - in a hazy shade of winter.

Come visit me at colorofeureka and serendipity.
