GUESS WHO VISITED WITH US... Jamie Ford surprised us with... Jamie Ford surprised us with a visit at our first Sunday of every month:
STORIES AT THE PANAMA
As we gathered at the Panama Hotel this first Sunday in May2023, we had a surprise visit with Jamie Ford. He shared that he has purchased a DARUMA for each of his books. He blackens in the pupil of the right eye, according to tradition, as he starts his books and then blackens in the left eye when completed. One can google the Japanese Daruma tradition for goal setting.

Today, he showed us the tatoo on his right forearm of a daruma, created by his daughter, for his latest book. She will darken the left eye when it is completed and add some flashy highlights. 

Jamie shared some further significance of the tatoo. It seems his father had many. Tatoos were known to be either military or prison related and Jamie was adverse to the idea most of his life. But recently, he values his father more and realizes the history of his family has a lot of significance in finding "HIS REAL SELF". 

STORIES AT THE PANAMA has been successful because sharing stories about ourselves, our heritage and life values is what we are all about. I consider it one of my "life purpose" thoughts for my life fulfillment. It's been a lot of fun and everyone is welcome.
