What is White Rabbit Musings?

A gentle hello, dear friend. It’s so lovely to meet you.

My name is Dorie Snow, and I am an enthusiast of Chinese history, poetry, and philosophy. My journey began at California State University Long Beach, Chinese Culture and Philosophy, after a 16-year career in cardio-thoracic ICU. I learned that both the human heart and ancient texts beat with profound, quiet stories. Stories that need to be told so many others can find them and enjoy them outside of academia.

White Rabbit Musings is my humble project of love, a softly lit lantern I’ve kindled out of deepest respect and affection for Chinese culture. I’ve dedicated my second life of learning to wandering the misty paths of ancient China, listening to the echoes of poets and sages, and gently tending to the teachings of Confucianism. I hope to discover through my lifetime of study, how these beautiful words of the past might blossom in our modern lives.

Here, you are free to wander. If your heart is drawn to Chinese history, culture, philosophy, or classical poetry, you may follow those quiet trails and rest there as long as you like.

If you feel moved by personal poetry, fiction, or musings from my own journey, those cozy corners are waiting for you, too.

My wish is to cultivate a peaceful garden, a gentle space where anyone can come to learn, without feeling overwhelmed, and where curiosity is always greeted with a kind nod.

If your soul sings in verse, I warmly invite you to visit the White Rabbit Poetry Society. It is an open garden for all writers, with no walls or paywalls, only welcoming gates. Together, we’ll share prompts, little whispers about the art of verse, and the joy of crafting beauty from words. It is a haven for new and seasoned poets alike to find fellowship and inspire one another.

Thank you, truly, for spending a little of your precious time here. You are most welcome, and you belong.

Many blessings,

Dorie 🐇
