Ferry Pier, Disneyland


Henry Tang or CY Leung?

A debate not really focused on their proposals and vision as to make HK a better place but attacking each other with proven or unproven allegations.

Albert Ho just took the advantage of criticizing or teasing without forwarding any substantial plans for enhancement of the Government works. Exactly the role of the LegCo members.

sense the sky & keep well by smiling

Look up at the sky at least once every day, totally aware. Get a sense of the expansiveness of the sky and the universe around you; at the same time, breathe deeply and easily and feel the ground beneath your feet. Free yourself from the burdens and pressures of the tasks that are weighing upon you.

Smile and remain positive just for the sake of loving yourself.

"Love Me" is my paramount duties. I love Me. Never depend too much on any others.

PET scan

A positron emission tomography (PET) scan is a unique type of imaging test that helps doctors see how the organs and tissues inside your body are actually functioning.

The test involves injecting a very small dose of a radioactive chemical, called a radiotracer, into the vein of your arm. The tracer travels through the body and is absorbed by the organs and tissues being studied. Next, you will be asked to lie down on a flat examination table that is moved into the center of a PET scanner—a doughnut-like shaped machine. This machine detects and records the energy given off by the tracer substance and, with the aid of a computer, this energy is converted into three-dimensional pictures. A physician can then look at cross-sectional images of the body organ from any angle in order to detect any functional problems.

sweet dreams for tonight - that will be good enough

This and that.
Now and then.
Today, tomorrow and the day after that.
When the day comes,
Peaceful and relaxed, or
Worries and unrest?
How does the future hold?
Bright or bleak?
Who can help?

A Simple Life

Directed by Ann Hui and starring Andy Lau & Deanie Ip.

Old age & death.

Love is inevitably the theme.

as long as we breathe

We must do something meaningful and pleasurable to justify our doing so, however trivial.

Like buying macaroons for your beloved and eating together.

Like cooking breakfast for your beloved and eating together.

Like buying cinema tickets for Mama and watching movie together.

Like going to supermarket with Ah b and paying for the candies she picks.

Like calling Min and have a hearty chat.

Like thinking what birthday present to be selected for Van.

Like bringing family members to see doctor when they are sick and awaiting their recovery.

I want peace

I win; I lose.

I gain; I fall.

I love; I hate.

I have many friends buying me many gifts and treating me with many meals for my birthday.

Celebrations! I am strengthened to face so many frustrations! Life is a tough game that we need to fight and bear with the unbearable pains. Only love and care may ease our broken hearts.

You Raise Me Up

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

Palace in Beijing

Juliet said

“What’s in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call’d,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title.”

Bronnley Lemon Soap

One of the finer things in life.

The olive oil and the lemon flavour bring along some pleasant feelings in the shower and make life a more worthy stuff.

3 friends treated me a dinner in Exchange Square. They may find me becoming a grumbling person. In any event, I am grateful for their patience & generosity.

To Van & Min on Valentine's Day

Heart of a Motherby Paula J. Fox

A mother is born in that very moment a child becomes her own.
And her heart begins to overflow with a love she has never known.

Her focus changes instantly as her heart beats for another.
It will never be the same again.
It's the powerful heart of a mother!

It's a heart of incredible courage with strength and endurance too.
She fiercely protects and defends her young in ways only she can do.

She sacrifices "self" to give her children what they need,
Developing their character to make sure that they succeed.

Just like a lovely gardener she plants her seeds of love.
Her heart gives lots of sunshine like blessings from above.

She provides a firm foundation...a peaceful, loving home.
So her children's roots run deep and strong no matter where they roam.

With a heart that nurtures them along to grow in the right direction,
She allows them freedom to blossom and thrive under her wise protection.

They're prepared to face the storms of life, as they learn to stand alone.
She gives them a sense of value and strength with a confidence of their own.

There's a special beauty in a Mother's love.
She's a picture of wisdom and grace.
We honour her with gratitude...

No one can take her place!

Valentine's Day


All that glitters is not gold

I told my girls that love & care is the multiplier without which no fame, riches nor food + lodging will keep you warm. How sadly true!

so many lessons to learn in life

Whom should we love? How should we love? Is our love taken as love or interference, indulgence, demands and imposition?



Christina says

It is a blessing to have someone thinking of you and that someone you always think of.
