kindness

For the past two weeks, there has been only one thought stuck on repeat in my mind about the beauty of kindness:

It's your kindness that leads us to repentance, Oh Lord.
Knowing that you love us no matter what we do,
Makes us want to love you too.
(Part of a song circa 1989 sung by Maranatha! Praise Band, See Romans 2:4)

Please visit Cahleen for more in-depth reflections on the Beauty of Kindness.

His kindness leads to repentance which makes me think: how powerful our kindness is in winning others to Christ!

I have that song on a cassette tape by Leslie (Sam) Phillips.

straightness This is what I looked like this weekend: Yes, it only lasted the weekend. It is/was not a permanent change to my natural curls. I went to get a hair cut on Thursday night, but the lady didn't know how to cut curly hair. So, she first straightened it and then cut it. Of course, I got the hair cut, after a massage and hair washing . . . so the entire process took about three hours, but only cost 14 USD (with no need to tip). I can't complain.

pumpkin people Sometimes on Sunday afternoons, my little neighbors (who really aren't that little anymore), Karen and Christine come over to play games. But, this last time, we did something different. We painted faces onto little pumpkins (no, not oranges, pumpkins really--I promise). This was the first time I've actually seen orange pumpkins here in Taiwan. Usually they are more of a yellow-green and more gourd-like in shape. When I found these at the store I actually got a little excited. But, I also found it quite humorous since I now know where all the pumpkin rejects from the States go to die . . . Taiwan! :) They had one kind of pumpkin labeled "large." The "large" pumpkin could still fit easily into the palm of my hand. It was about the size of a grapefruit--maybe. I think the family across from me in the grocery store last week got a kick out of watching me get a kick out of the "large" pumpkins. :) For more pictures of our pumpkin people, click over to flickr. www.flickr.com
