  • 6 weeks, 6 mins, 6 days

    it's been whewwwww, a tough six weeks and it's still going.  i'm thinking this with a very thankful heart.  it's through these tough times that i seek for help, and that i realized there are many people around me that love me.  it's a season of thanks, it's a season of love (song: six thousand minutes)

    6 weeks, wheww... i couldn't recollected what was said, but those were harsh words, i'm thankful that she's able to let go, and it's been better these days.

    i've spent 6 hours refining a 6-min slides, only to know that i'm not using slides for the format of presentation.  still working on it tonight, doing mock # i-don't-remember, i hope that this refinement will turn out to be a confident talk in the end.

    6 days for symmetry, reality is 4 days.  portfolio!


    deep breaths.

    oooo.oooooooooooooo.ooooooooooooooooooooo

  • It's back... that whirlpool.... sunshine will drive it away...

    the horrible condition is back, i hate it, hate it to feel defeated, hate the attention when i'm ill.  is it possible that part of my body is permanently damaged? is it possible to get rid of this condition?  the doc reassured me that this is temporary. i can only hope.

    so what are life priorities?  it's so hard to balance 'em all.  there must be at least a dozen of responsibilities that came per hat that i wear.  how did i end up with so many responsibilities?  why am i so foolish to always put the lowest priority on myself, my family members.... but highest priorities to those often not so important matters?  so i was told that i only learned to smile outside my home.  i'm beginning to believe that this is true.  i've used up my tolerances on work matters outside, and when i'm home i'm left with a sheer lifeline, hardly have any energy to entertain anybody, forget myself.

    so i was working on my online portfolio and came across a blog entry that i posted in 2009.  i forgot who i could be. sigh.  patience, love, kindness. :)  it's time to go back to my green pasture, need to have a good look out in the sea/lake when the weather gets warmer.  spring and summer, you were just here, i'll come looking for you again. 

    needa put a pause on things, had been running too fast. :p  needa stop and take a look at the path, otherwise i'll miss out on things that are on the way. life isn't about a destination. :)

    stay positive kat, you can do this. and keep breathing. ;)

  • Loving husband

    an old fragile man went into the doctor's office urgency, asking if he had found the right place.  turns out it wasn't his appointment, but his wife's.  he had wondered for the whole day trying to find the doctor's office 2 weeks prior to his wife's visit, he biked in very cold weather, only to find out that he was searching in the wrong neigborhood for 3 hours.  he went back home, didn't give up.  once he was warmed up, he book the taxi to the doctor's office.  when i asked him how much was the taxi, he answered me precisely, "$26.34".  i asked, "老伯伯,你今年幾歲?", he answered, "我七十七啦,我老婆七十四!" 老伯你這樣做好令人感動啊。"不會啦,是我應該做的。"

  • Dream the impossible Dream

    My dream is very simple, I just want everyone around me to be happy.

    Friend A was shocked when she heard this, said "your dream isn't simple at all, even Jesus couldn't make everybody around him happy." Coming to a slight realization that my dream isn't that simple.  Shared this same vision with Friend B, who was also taken this by surprise, "it's very difficult to get everyone around you to be happy at the same time, people often walk different paths, different stages in their lives."

    I agree with them, but I don't agree that this dream is impossible.  Whatever dream that people may have, to become a pilot, to become a wind mill maker, to make a movie, to hold a concert on a stage surrounded by water, these dreams also seem very difficult, and I don't see my dream being any more difficult than theirs. I'm refusing to give up.  Why is it so difficult to care about people's feelings?   It's all about timing.

    Friend B continues, "i think your dream may be difficult, but you can start with yourself. be happy so you can inspire others."

    Yes of course, but even if i'm not happy in the end, i never said that i will need to be happy in the first place, did i?

  • Post-UK blue

    Didn't like London, it reminds me that British are the ones that stole my Chinese heritage, never knew the HK architecture was that highly influenced by the colonial setting.  Many parts of London reminds me of HK, the people, the tube, the buildings.  The consequence of going on a mini-work-vacation is 200 emails.  I made up my To Do List and there are 26 items.  Felt instant acid reflux in my stomach, need a breather.  It gives more pressure when I know I have to finish 'em all before I depart for Asia again.

    Took time to see cherry blossoms yesterday after work, was debating if I should go when I left work at 7pm.  LOL With some wrong turns.....getting lost and detours, I finally got there.  The magic of nature and children were amazing, if it wasn't for those cherry blossoms, I would still be feeling blue.  It didn't matter the sun wasn't around for nice photo opts, those children's laughter were medicinal, I was smiling the whole time when I drove home. I helped a mother take photos of her and her 2 lovely children, then she offered to take mine.  "我可以和你兩小孩照碼? 他們好可愛。" Haha. Then the kids ran up to me, I told them to pick up snowflakes on the ground and put on our hands, 兩小孩二話不說便將手上的櫻花雪散在地上。真的好像飄雪。好驚喜。笑聲好好聽。 Thank You for watching over me, I praise You more when I saw the rain drop when I'm about to leave - You just knew I needed these elements to cheer up and recharge.
