Tales of a Tiger Daughter

The last post on here was in fall of 2015! That was right when I started acupuncture school at ACTCM, and nearly 5 years later, I'm now a licensed acupuncturist and doctor of Chinese medicine. Believe it or not, encouraging quotes, books, and pictures really do go a long way. Looking back on the words/images I've posted on here, they were often posted at a time when I really needed help and support. Media can go a long way in making someone feel better and more in truth, or it can take people further off their paths, into more confusion and emotional chaos.

Just as I'm about to graduate, I am fortunate enough to say that I have found all three. :)

"When we dream alone, it is only a dream. But when we dream together, it is the beginning of a new reality." Architect, Friedensreich Hundertwasser

"What we do not understand makes us insecure, therefore we invalidate...Perception stabilizes on grounds of repeated experiences and beliefs become limited to that perception. The pitfall sets in when experience is of a nature that contradicts our belief system. We believe what we perceive. We cannot perceive what we do not believe. Belief becomes a filter which filters out what we believe cannot be." (Peter Erbe)

"Words saturated with sincerity, conviction, faith, and intuition are like highly explosive vibration bombs, which, when set off, shatter the rocks of difficulties and create the change desired." -Paramahansa Yogananda

"Character is like a tree, and reputation is like its shadow." Abraham Lincoln
