The Two Whos

Full Name

About Me: 

Cece and Yun, The Two Whos, come from different backgrounds, are educated in different disciplines and systems,and  have lived  different lives.  From every angle on the surface, all you see are the differences.  We dress differently, we talk differently, we cook differently, we laugh differently.  But we are the same, even identical in our humanness or woman-ness.

We have the same concerns…. from the cat, to the world peace; from the wellbeing of children to woman’s challenges….We experienced life’s seemingly unbearable pains, many defeats and triumphs; we fall, we cry, we despair, we struggle, we stand up, we ask, we seek, we laugh…  We have fought many different battles in our separate lives, but we share the same pain and wisdom, the blissful growth and loving compassion.

Cece is  an artist, writer, poet, cyclist, yoga girl,who is really an introvert living an extroverted life as she works for a non-profit superrvising 40 staff and overseeing the care of 15 dually diagnosed people. Writing, helps her to connect with the quieter contemplative  side of her life!

Yun is a physicist,a mother of 2 young boys, a writer and poet and a conflict resolution coach and mediator.  She is also a cyclist.

East meets West with the Two Whos.  Cece is a NYer and Yun is from China.  This makes for a wonderful mixture of perspectives that  happen when they write back and forth on each blog post.  They negotiate and write on each post together and nip and tuck  the post.   It always comes out better than if just one Who  was doing all the writing!
