BYC 2023 – Resilience
BYC (Buddhist Youth Camp) is a summer Buddhist camp organized by the Jade Buddha Temple in Houston. Thanks to my parents’ persuasion, I participated in their first-ever youth camp in 1993 before starting college.

The morning after my birthday last November, I embarked on a visit to Jenny, the eldest sister of the Yang family, marking the beginning of an extraordinary project called Zero Distance. While it may seem like a mere task-oriented endeavor, its true purpose was to rekindle connections and continue the bonds with friends and acquaintances who once held a significant place in my life.
Back in January, I got a phone call from my homeboy who needed help on a design. He is hosting an Asian night market event with a group of food enthusiasts, so he needs to create a logo and flyers for the event.. So, here is what I did for him.
Ahboga had told me about this cool place called SAFE in Austin. It’s a truly heartwarming story of a family with big, big hearts who saves abandoned and often disabled animals, and then when they are ready, pairs them with humans often with special needs themselves. What ends up happening is pure magic, healing in the way that only unconditional love can.
Thanks to Ahboga, I had the unique opportunity to witness an iconic local business here in Austin get a total storefront revamp by a popular local mural artist!
I recommended Yellow to Coco’s Cafe to help them paint in front of the store, because I think his style is too cute and eye-catching!! Just like his personality and appearance, he has always been bold in using bright colors to paint works that are full of joy and positive energy!
I know that it might seem out of place to gush about a library here at Much Love Crew. We talk a lot about families, kids, and spreading love, and I can’t think of a more welcoming place for families.
It’s just hair, isn’t it? So it was surprising that so many thoughts and emotions played out before, during, and after I got my once-in-a-lifetime haircut.
What is our relationship to hair? Is it a vehicle for self-expression? Is it power? Is it beauty? Is it comfort? Is it fashion?
