My Life Chest: Zen Blossom

I put my favorite book Moment in Peking both in Chinese and in English in my Life Chest. Moment in Peking is a novel originally written in English by Chinese author Lin Yutang. It covers lots of historical events from 1900 to 1938. I am very interested in the history of that period, and I can find everything I want to know from this novel, this is why I love this novel. Today I put them in my Zen Blossom Life Chest with other classic books.

Amelia’s Life Chest Story

“My Life Chest is filled with travel journals from my three trips to China, two expired stamp-filled passports and a photo journal from 10 days scuba diving in Indonesia… there are family photos, the scooter rental receipt from our Caribbean honeymoon, a Champagne cork from a special hot air balloon ride and, a piece of sea glass from Moloka’i, one of my favorite places in the world. These are the memories, yet I can’t wait to fill it up with what’s to come. My Life Chest reminds me to make it a life worth remembering.”
