Ways of Don Park

There is another Don Park in blogspace!  He is a Western Park, while I am an Eastern Park.  As long as its not Don't Park, we are all right.  I just noticed that this blog comes up first when I google 'Don Park'.  Cool.  A sheet metal factory in Canada is third just beating out the other Don Park in blogspace.  Top 'Don' is Don Knuth of "Art of Computer Programming" fame.  I do feel a kinship with people named Don and Koreans with 'Do' in their name.

I chose Don as my 'American name' because my Korean first name is 'Do' as in Tae-Kwon-Do.  'Do' character is pronounced 'Tao' in China and means 'Way' or 'Road'.  I append 'n' to 'Do' to get 'Don' which I interpret as 'Person of the Way'.  No wonder I feel comfortable in 'empty' Zen temples.  No, this is not why I never asks for directions.
