I just remembered a Chinese writer said (中国作家章诒和《往事并不如烟》一书作者 ) “ 我 们 这 种人没有未来。不要以为一定有明天,有可能就没有,病痛、意外、灾祸,随时都可能会发生,不要以为这些不会发生在自己身上。不管是在东方或是西方,不管是发达国家或是不发达国家。人命不由己啊,属于自己的时间并不多。这样听起来好像很悲观,但也有积极的一面,希望每一天都做完该做的事,不要拖延。” It reminds me that enjoy life and do something worth it. The trip with JJ (my honey) is really, really wonderful and excited. In old day Chinese said it would be content in one’s life if you had been TianAnMen Square. I can say that I have been an amazing country, many paradise cities; it is a meaningful experience in my life. I treasure each trip up in my memory.
