Thy Paradise is My love; thy heavenly home, reunion with Me. Enter therein and tarry not. This is that which hath been destined for thee in Our kingdom above and Our exalted dominion. (Baha'u'llah, The Arabic Hidden Words)

Adalia's posts from South Korea are such an inspiration.

It seems that now is the time for things to come together. My friend Hyun-joo, Seung-woo's sister, became a Baha'i two days ago. The ball is really moving. I always had a feeling that if one of my friends became a Baha'i, they would be able to teach the Faith far better than I ever could. After Seung-woo became a Baha'i I was amazed by his fearlessness and how easily he told others about the Faith. He started telling his family right away and now his sister has become a Baha'i. Both of them immediately got involved in the study circles and devotional gatherings. It has been a beautiful thing to watch the two of them embrace the Faith. Truly a blessing for me.

Adalia describes her childhood growing up as a Baha'i on another blog:

Baha'i Unit Convention, Conway, SC Baha'i Center, 10/05/2003
For my entire 10 year old life I was surrounded by the most beautiful religious community, the Baha'i community. Growing up in South Carolina could have been potentially difficult for a mixed race child of a wierd named religion yet these years hold a sweetness in my memory. My parents would host bonfires in the backyard of our country home for people living in the Florence-Darlington areas. I think people came up once from as far away as Frogmore, which is about a three hour drive from my parents home. Ahhh, the singing and talking and laughter that filled my house and yard. I would fall asleep cradled by these sounds. I would visit Baha'is with my dad and attend gatherings at the Louis Gregory Baha'i Insitute, which would be a pivotal place in my life as a youth. My identity as a Baha'i was all I knew and all I knew was acceptance and love.
