Some people say that I'm pretty. Am I? I know not. What I do know is
that I like to laugh, a lot. My laughter lights the world, my mother says; but
she's my mother after all, what else would she say?
In the picture above you can see me celebrating the Festival of Water or
Loy Krathong, in Chiang Mai, Thailand. This festival marks the end of the dry
season and the beginning of the rainy one.
For three days (and more, actually) we eat, drink, and participate in
endless water fights and have tons of fun, placing for awhile all our troubles
aside. The water, as it flows, plentiful, seems to wash everything clear, our
bodies and souls. This is a thing of wonder and joy for me, and makes me smile
wider still.
