油壺

　　我好喜歡爸爸廚房裏的油壺，我說回去也要買一個。爸爸把一個不用的小茶壺送給我，你看，擦得多亮！

　　擦壺容易燒菜難，如果爸爸的手藝能裝在壺裏，多好！

                                                   

復活節彩蛋

　　前天去台北女青年會開董事會，每個人桌前除了會議資料外，還有一顆包著漂亮塑膠紙的蛋，塑膠紙上畫著彩色圖畫，一位大鬍子的牧羊人身邊跟著一隻小綿羊，和三個身前掛著紅心、雙手高舉分別寫了仁愛、平安、喜樂的牌子的小朋友，站在朵朵白花的綠草地上。啊，復活節就要到了。

Building a Library from Scratch

Wheilin Ku

 

Jacinto,

good to see "your" beautiful library. It's a good match between you and the library. Last week we spent three days at the seminary where I have been volunteering setting up the library. We (the pastor) started from buying the lumber and making the book cases. Then we took the books out of the boxes and set them up on the shelves. There are so many books, many donated by people, and we found one old book published in 1901. It is very overwhelming. I wonder how many people will spend time reading the books in the library.

So instead of calling it a "new career?", maybe we should call it an "old pastime", something many of the new generation may not be able to appreciate.

Ｍy "New Career"

Jacinto Ku

       This is my "new career". I now volunteer at Leu Gardens. This is a 50-acre garden donated to the city of Orlando in 1961 by Mr. and Mrs. Leu– obviously they were very rich and generous. I work in the library on Saturday from 1-5 pm. Very few people come in to the library. They go straight to the garden. I usually have the whole library (which is about 20' by 25') to myself. I can read their books or bring my own books or iPad.
