C\hance\hoice

Does it a choice or a chance? I can't identify that. I know from the beginning that in life would have choices, but sometimes, choices and chances just mixed up.

I just wrote a letter to my wife to tell her my feeling about moving to Japan. I know that it is a choice, but from the other side; I know that also it is a chance.

To give is always better than to receive

http://www.worldhunger.org/

Oh, my gosh! The rice is 20% up, and don’t forget that 1 in 5 kids in New York are live under the poverty line even before that. We are all going to die because of hunger. Please don’t waste food and no one, really no one should suffer from hunger when you and me are choosing which vacation we should go this summer, which new car model should we buy, which new cell phone should we replaced. Let feed the hunger children before we even think about those luxury. I can’t do by my own. I hope some world leader will care. I don’t care they are Christians, Muslim, Jewish, buddish or communist. I just hate to see people suffer from hunger. It is not fair for them. They don’t even has chance to defeat if we keep taking away from them. Please stop taking from them and start giving.

“To give is always better than to receive.”

Human population

We have more than 6 millions new born babies a month. Will the world be too packed someday? I believe that some of the some world leaders or organizations actually don’t really care about the dead rate of the third world countries. Sine it will lower the world population. How's sad is it, we so called human. But who to be blame- the strongest survive. That also recalls me that some European countries have already enforced public hospital to stop some senior treatment if they are in the last stage of cureless disease. It means to keep the limited resource for the other, the youth. At last, "still human".

China olympics

How many people really know China, or Chinese, Taiwan or Tibet or even the world? Everyone, even me is trying to express our point of view. No one really knows the world well enough, so let don’t be too extremely to determine what you see, what you think and what you heard is the absolutely true, but opinion of someone else bias. I was born and grew up in Hong Kong. I know Hong Kong, and China, but not US even I had been living here for more than 10 years. At least I know Hong Kong as a hongkonger, the most civilize place of the Chinese community. So who is the good guys and who is the bad guys? I took my history in Hong Kong, just like most of the history classes around the world, you government will only tell you the good history of she, not too much about the bad.

I glad that I had chance to know about different aspects of the history from US. I first heard about the WWII holocaust in the US College at the age of 30. Does it surprise you? But it doesn’t surprise me since my parents, my brothers and my friend in Hong Kong still doesn't even know Jewish holocaust exist, but we well aware of the Nanjing holocaust in China. Based n the history, Communist is the bad guys (known as China), and Chinese Nationalist Party is the good guy (known as Taiwan). It is too long to go through the whole history. At current stage, we have China. We have Taiwan. We have Hong Kong, and we have Macau. Hong Kong and Macau are both handover back to China in the last decade. So that is the questions, we are all Chinese. Why we all live separately. My parents were born in mainland China. Most Taiwanese’ parents, unless those local are born in China. We all know that Taiwan already have their own culture and their own politician system, but that doesn’t' change that we are all Chinese. I saw a recent research shows only 10% of the Taiwanese consider themselves as a Chinese. We just have to find a way to unify all Chinese in peace. I will never want to see one day, we have to flight our own. I used to call myself a hongkonger. After the handover ceremony on 1997, I have accepted and reconsidered me actually a Chinese. My blood stream is Chinese, my parents born in China and I speak Chinese Cantonese. We all love our country, and don't like to rule by someone else, but we can’t deny that British help built Hong Kong become one of the top international trade center and one of the most beautiful and free city in the world. Just give our government and country sometimes; we have 20% of the world population. We can’t follow the other nations step and just change in a day. I definitely see our country is changing, moving, and improving. I believe someday, we will meet the standard of the rest of the world. But don’t forget some of the so far standard of the rest of the world, governments or leaders are not even worth to mention. From matrix, “Still Human.”

But again Chinese people are complicated. Some of us are selfish. Some of us are ignoring. Some of us are cocky and some of us are very humble. Since we, our own already have too many cultures, make us sometimes discriminate our own people. I truly believe once you get out your own dimension, your own hometown, and look around the world. It will enrich you vision. I will never discriminate any nations, or color of the people, let alone my own people. I am always the people who try to help my own people. I don't mind to give more, in hope that I can influence the other to do the same.

Lost

Have you even felt that you lost yourself? You don't remember what were you doing yesterday; you don't know what you are doing today; you don't see your future and you lost your direction for tomorrow. It all happens right before I graduated. I thought I will be better off after I graduated. Who's know I am still returning my colleges debt and the money I spent when my father pass away. He is not the one to be blamed; I am. I am just wondering is that anything big waiting ahead of me. I don't believe this is my life. I am poorer than 3 years ago, less happy than 3 years ago, less vacation than 3 years ago, less friend and family with me than 3 years ago, and older then 3 years ago. Does anything good happen within three 3 years. I had two kids, but they are both away from me. I got to go back three years ago. I got to get out of this mess. I need to move on. I need to find a way to live that I will be happy. My family will be happy. Everyone should be happy whether than suffer. I am just not moving on. I need to move on and I need motivation and I know the only motivation I can have is me- not even my son, my daughter, my debt, my father, my job or anything . Don't forget! Don’t compare! Don't compete! I need only to win and beat myself, no one else.

DIY Gallstones Removal

Unknown source reprint:
This is a useful piece of information that you may have received before. This is true and it works.
You can 'google' Dr Lai Chiu-Nan to find out more about her and the feedbacks of this treatment. Pictures first, explanation and procedure follows:
1. Liver 2. Common Bile Duct3. Gallstones4. Gallbladder REMOVING GALLSTONES NATURALLY by Dr Lai Chiu-Nan It has worked for many. If it works for you please pass on the good news. Chiu Nan is not charging for it, so we should make it free for everyone. Your reward is when someone, through your word of mouth, benefits from the regime. Gallstones may not be everyone's concern. But they should be because we all have them. Moreover, gallstones may lead to cancer. "Cancer is never the first illness," Chiu Nan points out. "Usually, there are a lot of other problems leading to cancer. In my research in China , I came across some materials which say that people with cancer usually have stones. We all have gallstones. It's a matter of big or small, many or few. One of the symptoms of gallstones is a feeling of bloatedness after a heavy meal. You feel like you can't digest the food. If it gets more serious, you feel pain in the liver area." So if you think you have gallstones, Chiu Nan offers the following method to remove them naturally. The treatment is also good for those with a weak liver, because the liver and gallbladder are closely linked. Regimen: 1. For the first five days, take four glasses of apple juice every day. Or eat four or five apples, whichever you prefer. Apple juice softens the gallstones. During the five days, eat normally. 2. On the sixth day, take no dinner. 3. At 6 PM, take a teaspoon of Epsom salt (magnesium sulphate) with a glass of warm water. 4. At 8 PM, repeat the same. Magnesium sulphate opens the gallbladder ducts. 5. At 10 PM, take half cup olive oil (or sesame oil) with half cup fresh lemon juice. Mix it well and drink it. The oil lubricates the stones to ease their passage.
The next morning, you will find green stones in your stools. "Usually they float," Chiu Nan notes. "You might want to count them. I have had people who passes 40, 50 or up to 100 stones." "Even if you don't have any symptoms of gallstones, you still might have some. It's always good to give your gall bladder a clean-up now and then.PASS THIS AND YOU MAY HELP OTHERS!

Plastic bottle

Even some study and news show to repeatedly reuse the PET (polyethylene Terephthalate) plastic bottle is harmful. But I think the bottom line is in the first place, we should try not to use it at all unless really necessary, such as in a park, beach or on the road. Why we have to use it at home, at work or at school? Does anyone knows if we not recycle it properly, the plastic will end up migrate into our soil and back to our food chain?

So first, try not to use any plastic bottle unless necessary. Then if you have to use it, don’t reuse it for the sake of your family safety. Finally, recycle it according to the plastic code along with your region regulation. Good luck and stay healthy.

Support Sean Bell

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_Bell

They killed him. The cops killed him, but judge just dropped all the charges. You can’t kill an unarm man and walk away. This is just not right. This should not happen in any civilization nation, but ironic it happens in US, who claimed to be the most democratic country in the world. Sean and his buddy might not be a decent man based on our standard, but this doesn’t give those cops a right to shoot him even one. In this case, it is not 1; it is50. I feel pity for not only Sean Bell and his family as well as those cold bloods, callous cops, so called human being.

US new fleet

I saw news today that US will have a new fleet at the southern American open sea. I am just wondering what the real purpose for all those military aircraft and watercraft for. Does it means to protect our country or it will eventually destroy civilization someday? Does the world is going to be a better if it runs by people just like me. I will not think about any reason to start a war. See how many billions dollars spend for all over the world into their missiles, weapons, militaries and defense departments. Especially in US, she is all over the world, Iraq, Afghanistan, Panama, Japan, South Korea, Israel, Vietnam...etc And all the civil war in Africa, Sri Lanka, Iceland, India, Tibet and China...etc. I still can’t imagine why they killed John Lennon. I only can imagine.

Hunger and Poverty

We or our child soon will suffer from hunger if we don't act today. I was totally support the earth day couple of days ago. Do you know 260,000 of college application form equals to estimate 300 land trees (news on yahoo.hk)? I am taking about 300 tress that each one it takes 100 year to grow. How many colleges in the world? Do you know 1/3 of the Amazon Rainforest has vanished in the pass 50 years? Do you know we used to have about 80 days of food on earth, but it only has about 50 day left now? I grew up in Hong Kong and wasted a lot of food as a teenage and my early adulthood. But if any one of you out there and listening, please and please start to save this earth, this might be our only earth to not wasting food, start to recycle, reuse, and reduce. You don't have do it every single part, and single detail of you life, but try to do your best, walk more, drive less, order food that you will finish and pack the rest home, use less plastic bags, use both sides of the paper, send email instead of postal mail, donate used clothes, or furniture to salvation army, wrap less gifts, recycle can, reuse those take out containers. It is just like flicking your fingers. But if you and me both take part of this process, I ensure y ou that we can influence one or two people, and sure this will become our standard of living. If we work together, we can save the earth.

Working attitude

Do I really have attitude at work? I do, but it is Wrong, but it is a corresponding reflection, but I will still do the same. It is just like you can be very safe by not doing any thing, like ignoring the customer and being lazy, because no one know. The person know, it is me. But you get buzz off by doing more jobs and care about the customers. But eventually you get buzz off by your boss via the Golden Finger. I am total workaholic and I have no explanation of it. May be I apprecaite my boss give me the opportunity to work. Our company has a really old fashion management there that make thing very difficult to change. I, as a new generation manager with my team has to fight to survive in this everyday environment, only way I can do it is to stood our point strongly and aggressively, but the attitude doesn't come in a day. Think about when you say good morning to someone everyday when you start to work, but they never say back to you. When you ask someone, "why you are so unhappy everyday?" and they said it is none of your business. If they already pass the bottom line, I think attitude is the outcome. I truly believe, I am a nice person that I respect anyone form the bottom to top, from the cleaner, to the designer, to the operator, to the boss. I will do it the same way, but of course I am still not prefect. I will learn how to be humble and drawing my own line at the same time. I just love to work. It makes human, like me move and enjoy life.

Japan

My wife just asked me to go back to Japan. I really let her down at the first place. I would love to go back if life is always go with your heart. But what can I do in Japan. I really enjoy my job here even my working environment is not complete friendly with the old people. But I need to clear that I love and respect old people. I love my father and my grandmom, they both passed away and especial my father, I missed him everyday.
