Likes and Dislikes

In America, I disliked the following:

·      Rain

·      Getting up at 6:00am

·      Ambiguity

In China, I have the following often:

·      Rain

·      Getting up at 6:00am

·      Ambiguity

So, l have learned some things.

Rain is wonderful!  It clears the skies, it brings moisture to a very dry place, and it cleans streets.  In Beijing, it allowed us to see the Mountains for a day (and then they went back into hiding).  Bring on the rain!

Getting up at 6:00am is OK.  (reader, you were expecting a radical heart change…weren’t you?)  Actually, I’m getting used to it.  The sun sets early here.  Getting up early, allows me to have a nice breakfast with Father and then get to work while sitting next to a window with sunshine.

Ambiguity…well, I’m embracing it. 

I am learning that likes and dislikes are just opportunities for change.*
