The Littlest Red Guards

June 1st is Children's Day. Titus' preschool prepared a fantastic performance with many acts. The university gymnasium was packed out!

Here's Titus' class. You can't see him. They put him in the back, probably because his dancing has the most room for improvement. Actually, he didn't really dance at all, but he did stand nicely in his spot, not cry (key), and wave his arms around a bit.

I took this picture before the show started. The bleachers were entirely full ten minutes later.

The Littlest Red Guards.

China's Communist Party celebrates it's 90th anniversary this summer.

Can you pick out Titus?

He is the only non-Chinese kid in the entire school, a Ruby Bridges of sorts.

Superfans.

"Good job Titus!"

Neighbors 邻居

“It may be possible for each to think too much of his own potential glory hereafter; it is hardly possible for him to think too often or too deeply about that of his neighbor. The load, or weight, or burden of my neighbor's glory should be laid daily on my back, a load so heavy that only humility can carry it, and the backs of the proud will be broken. ...

"There are no ordinary people. You have never talked to a mere mortal. Nations, cultures, arts, civilizations -- these are mortal, and their life is to ours as the life of a gnat. But it is immortals whom we joke with, work with, marry, snub and exploit. ...your neighbor is the holiest object presented to your senses.”

- C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory
