Min-Min (Elaine Jin)
The Still Pond Between Duty and Yearning
I keep the home, but my soul wanders.
In this life, I am wife, mother, caretaker of order—but inside, I am something else entirely. I move through days like a leaf on still water, watching, listening. The children grow. NJ drifts. And I—well, I search. Not with noise, but with quiet. With breath. With books. With prayer beads in my hand and questions too vast to name.
What I'm Into: morning tea before the house wakes, Buddhist lectures in quiet halls, watching my daughter’s face change, the ache of unanswered questions, listening without speaking
