The Year of the Dragon

When I first reinvented this blog in September, I left the door open to revisit China.  Although that trip feels like a million years ago, I have recently felt compelled to do so.  This is the Chinese "Year of the Dragon" and I was born in the Year of the Dragon.  Coincidence?

Happily, the Year of the Dragon is considered to be the luckiest year in the Chinese Zodiac.

Though most who know me would call me a fire breather, I am a water dragon.  According to Wikipedia:  ..."water is representative of intelligence and wisdom, flexibility, softness and pliancy; however, an over-abundance of the element is said to cause difficulty in choosing something and sticking to it.  In the same way, water can be fluid and weak, but can also wield great power when it floods and overwhelms the land."

Although I am a water dragon...I envision my dragon to be breathing fire....

So..lets celebrate the Year of the Dragon!
