China Balance

Image
Let's start with some... PANDASPANDASPANDAS- pandas looking for food, pandas in trees, pandas eating food, pandas in trees! get the theme here??? They are so amazing! I also am still not sure if they are real, or men in panda suits. Hmmmmm Ok back to balance. I’ve been reflecting on my time here in China. 10 months creeps up quickly on a person! I’ll be going back to the good ol’ US of A at the end of June for two months before coming back for a second school year (whaaaa). I’ve been trying to determine why I feel pulled to stay in China. What about it is keeping me here- not just keeping me but really enticing me. And I think it’s about balance. For some reason, Beijing has found a way to maintain balance that keeps me sane, productive and very calm. Balance is so many ugly buildings, mixed with the most vibrant, flower laden beautiful parks I’ve ever seen. Balance is working hard, but always having time to dance. Or sing. Or stretch. Or do your sword/...
