My little Lantern Festival
This is a story about a dream. When my oldest daughter entered school, I had a vision of starting a Lantern Festival in her school. After spending many years in both Taiwan and India, I was accustomed to the chaotic joy that the numerous festivals produced in those communities. It was in Taipei that I learned about Lantern Festival. Upon return to the United States, I truly missed the colourful cacophony and atmosphere, produced by the yearlong barrage of festivals, that I had grown accustomed to in Southeast Asia.
