| A Glass of water or A Lake!
The Master instructed the unhappy student to put a handful of salt in a glass of water and then to drink it. "How does it taste?" the Master asked. Awful," said the student.
The Master then asked the student to take another handful of salt and throw it in the lake. The two walked to the nearby lake and when the student swirled his handful of salt into the lake, the old man said, "Now drink from the lake." The student did so and the Master asked, "How does it taste?" Good!" remarked the student. "Do you taste the salt?" asked the Master. "No, said the young man. The Master sat beside this troubled young man, took his hands, and said, "There will always be pain in ife. But the amount of the 'pain' we sense depends on the size of container we are. So when you are in pain, enlarge your sense of things..... Stop being a glass of water. | | |
| So it's been awhile since I wrote anything. Sometimes interesting things may happen to me, but I never find it important enough for me to spend time writing about it. But recently many things that have happened in m y life force me to write them down, therefore I can always have a memory of it.
I find it really interesting how some people can change me.And these people that I refer to are people I would have never guessed to come into my life, much less have a life changing impact on me. These people make me feel alive and "charged" to take a swing at life. These people also make me feel content. I'm spoiled and especially these days I've been feeling so sick of the things around me, the people, and the things I do to be in vain. It's because of these people, I've changed.
Maybe it's in their smile - the way they uphold themselves -- i'm not sure, but it's one of those things that move me inside.

| I just got home to norcal 6 hours ago and I have to say I missed home. I didn't realize it but once the car pulled out of the airport and the breath of fresh air blew in, I knew. As I always say, home is the best and nothing can compare. I know that I have a fairly good life back in the OC, but there's just something about this place. I think it's the familarity of it all or maybe it's all the memories that lingers at every corner. It's such a good feeling!!
So this week will be just a errands week. I'll have to run to a few places before I leave for Taiwan and there are definitely some faces that I want to see. I'm not even sure when will be the next time I come home, so I better make sure I do all that I want to do.
I'm happy at this moment. I missed my mom. She's so great!! :D
Well just thought I post some thoughts before bed tonight. Don't worry, pictures will come soon! I promise....
