Last Sunday, I went on my usual trip to visit grandmom after church, but thus time I called mom insisting that she come. She then went home and insisted dad come along.
Grandmom got her wish! She had been complaining previously that she hasn't seen dad ever since grandpa's funeral. She was overjoyed! Haven't seen her laugh for awhile. She was so happythat she actually ate more and of course insisted we all to eat more than we could too!
Yes, this is the kind of image I had dreamed of and is the reason why I came back. Lord, I do believe you have started Your amazing work in my family. Just grand me the faith to see!
However, these couple days I have been arguing with mom because she went on her usual reasoning of not wanting me to switch jobs and the need to learn to appreciate, etc.
But, then she complained how I did not give her any money，說我很不懂事，不懂得感恩回餽。說我不如表姊表妹，連她們都懂得包紅包給外婆！
我何常不想多為家裡付出一點，我當然希望能有能力多做點啊！
so, I started to think maybe there's a reason God hasn't open the door for me to serve more. Maybe I just needed to find side jobs to aid my income.
Perhaps, I should pick up another tutor job or something.
God, 我不是沒能力的人，i refuse this label! 我不是為了逃避或混不下去而回來的！
please please, help me to have the patience and a strong heart to love unconditionally!

Boastful About Nothing
I really dislike people who are ignorant about how the world really is around them:
You stop learning when you started talking about any past success repeatedly
You lowered your position of power when an uninformative question is raised
You start making others offensive when an internal biased decision has been made prior to learning all the facts
Please never say "well, at least we gave it a shot and we have tried our best," when you have tried nothing at all.
Consistency means being persistent with trials and errors with cautions of aiming for perfections at each step!
There is really no superiority over any country
It may not always be a straight competition if there is dual beneficiary when teamwork is involved
Added value and respect only comes in when you start thinking for others before your own benefits
Humility is embrace others and learn from others through service
Benefits of keeping a partner outweighs identifying your enemies and clearing the road ahead of you
So, note to self, Please DO NOT place quick judgement over preference rather than on facts!
Re-quote this phrase from a friend today: 如果不懂，何不虛心受教？用謊言來粉飾自己的無知和不安，看了都替您辛苦!

Really?!
Yesterday, from different occasions, three friends came with extremely worry some voices asking:
"How are you actually adjusting to Taipei with your Americanized personality?"
"Have you been trying to date?"
"You are not getting any younger. Look at people around you. I know you want to have children of your own someday. You'd really work on finding yourself another half."
Yes, back in the States most of people around me are a few years older than me and are mostly all married and expecting or already have kids. Yes, it's true that most people I meet here in Taipei are a couple years younger than me.
But, I guess it never registered in my mind that I'm almost over the hill!
Well, not like there is anything I can do to change this situation.
I would love to settle with the right person soon too, but this is really out of my hands, friends.
For one though, I will push myself harder to try new things this year; to go out more, to meet more people from different places, to get out of my nut shell more.
I guess this blooming flower explains the stage friends describe me as 'hitting the hill' with its bloom. But who will be the one person that comes with flowers?
Only in His time~

Glad to have a Friend
Spent a lazy Saturday afternoon with PC bringing her to my hood, a orchid show in 社子花卉公園。
for two persons whom were down recently, enjoying gardening flowers is very relaxing.
I guess that is called 毫無目的的自由享受。
I'm just glad to have a sis around.
I feel lost about what I'm doing or why did I choose to come back.
I don't even know what is it that I wanted to do, but I only know one thing for certain: it's a constant assurance to know I have a friend to lean on no matter what!
Here's my selection of best orchid of the show for a obvious reason:
