A thought or two and a note about the fold of the week.
I recently received a message from someone who wanted to tell me that the rose I feature on DofTNet saved his marriage. I have always been happy to answer questions when they come up but it's always nice to hear from someone who just wants to say thanks. It would be nice if it were as simple as that to save a relationship all the time. I have never really considered myself an origami master by any means and I'm certainly no expert on relationships, but I suspect that a good relationship, like learning a new origami model for the first time, takes time, effort, and patience. I leave that as something to think about the next time the urge to fold some roses for that special someone strikes.

It's pretty obvious that it has been a while since I have posted any updates - here or on DofTNet. The last couple of months have been awfully chaotic. Having a full time job on top of everything else has left me with a lot less time for many of the things that are important to me. I have suspended the fold of the week while I sort things out a bit. I hope to start new folds again in January. Call it one of my new years resolutions.

Until then, happy folding!

Well, I'm in the middle of writing a college essay on my first Kawasaki rose two years back. I probably spent a good two hours trying to find help on folding it and I remember spending time trying to fold the original with the help of your diagrams. I wanted to offer a belated thanks for that and for bringing publicity to the Origami community at livejournal!
