The Abundance of Modesty
Delving into Daoist philosophy and the pictographic wisdom of Chinese calligraphy, this article unpacks the ancient proverb that "Modesty Brings Abundance" (謙受益). Grounding this profound concept in personal experiences, the author reflects on how the humility of an "empty vessel" allows one to receive a true overflow of friendship, knowledge, and spiritual wealth.

Cracks in the Silence
"Cracks in the Silence" is a poignant artistic and political reflection on the struggle to create meaning in a fractured contemporary world. The article charts a course from the author's personal retreat into minimalist art as a shield against global chaos, to a direct confrontation with harsh realities like political violence and the decay of truth

Forms: Passacaglia and Fantasia or Fugue and Fantasy
"Classical music" can be interpreted so many ways. Is it an era of composition or a musical genre? Does it pay more attention to form than to substance? I know that Classical and Baroque periods of music are European, white, and male-dominated. Because this is part of my background, I have influenced by it. I am aware of the development of many other forms and styles of music around the world.
