Now I am at work. I am sitting in front of my computer. I am looking at my blog. I am planning to write something to you. I am thinking deeply. I am thinking, thinking, and thinking. I know what I am going to write! I will write a paragraph and tell you what I like to do. Please read my paragraph.


What I Like To Do

I love to practice taichi. Taichi is an ancient Chinese exercise and martial art. It is characterized by slow graceful movements. I usually practice taichi in the morning when the sun begins to rise. This is a quiet part of the day and the air is fresh. I usually practice taichi in front of my house but sometimes I do it at the beach. I usually practice taichi alone but sometimes I practice it with my students and friends. I practice taichi because it is good for my health. Moreover, it gives me peace of mind and the sense of being in harmony with nature. I first learned taichi from my Chinese master in Taiwan and that was many years ago. I have been practicing taichi for more than thirty years now, and I will continue practicing this beautiful ancient exercise because of the many benefits it gives me.

What do you like to do?
When do you do it?
Where do you do it?
Who do you do it with?
Why do you do it?
When was the first time you did it?
