Be the light in you
Beyond the clouds of thinking
There are playgrounds
With no words
The sun will speak with you
Of being wild and transparent
Look
The sun has made a boot for you
And on the boot it wrote:
Come.
I used to be a graphic designer and an illustrator. I became involved with the Chan Meditation Center and studied meditation and Buddhist knowledge with the late Master Sheng-yen from Taiwan. For twelve years I was in a process of deepening my meditation. I had many more experiences and insights and my life changed. After having illustrated more than 40 children’s books and writing two of them, I left this career too and went to New York University to study art therapy.
