Gold

A couple of days ago, I read this on KBF's blog, and while I haven't personally read the book yet, was deeply moved by the paragraph she highlighted in her post.

So beautiful, I need to share it here.

Gold can be found everywhere if you look for it… sprinkled by sunlight on clear water… in the evening sky and the coming of each new dawn. It falls like scattered coins on the forest floor and gilds the leaf of every tree; glitters on every blade of grass after the rain and turns each dewdrop into a precious jewel. You will find gold in kindness; it can be found in the seeking of happiness and in helping others. Try to find your fortune among these things, collect what you can of this real gold, and one day you will be quan-jin

So nice, right?

I am quan-jin :)
