A close friend of mine took his own life on Sunday. I spoke with his sister early this morning, and we cried together. He was my first love, and that love recreated itself into a beautiful friendship.
He was an architectural and musical talent, a gentle man and a gentleman, and I grieve for him, his family and his baby daughter who'll never know him. |

I'm much more fortunate than my friends here, my tears are usually from songs or just something heart warming. This morning it was watching the news showing Obama introducing his wife at the inauguration gala.
I think partly because it was so nice to see that kind of love and partly because I wish I had that in my life.

Although it is a few days early, I passed out " Li Xi' today at work to my staff and co-workers. 'Li Xi' are the red envelopes containing money traditionally given as a gift for the Lunar New Year. The housekeepers at the school I work at earn USD$125.00 per month; I placed USD$10.00 in an envelope for each of them. They thanked me and had a look of shock/surprise on their faces. A bit later I walked towards the restroom and happened to look in the housekeepers room as they were just opening their envelopes. I stepped back and observed. The women all looked at the cash, looked at each other, looked back at the cash, again. They started jumping, giggling, talking excitedly .... the look of joy on their faces brought tears to my eyes. These women are extremely hard-working, considered on the low end of value in the work world, live a meagre existence. I had probably given them the cost of a bus ticket which will take them to their hometown, and their family, some 24 hours away - a place they only visit once a year and that's during the Lunar New Year which is happening this weekend. The women came up to me, group hugged me, kept saying 'thank you, teacher, thank you, Ms Deb' and as the tears streamed down my face I kept thinking of the wonderful gift I have received, the gift of observing true gratitude. My life is so blessed.

Our 90 lb puppy gets so excited and can be really hard to handle when he is.
I was putting him outside and was attaching his line (he jumps the fence otherwise) and he saw someone passing the house and he got so excited he lunged away from me. Stepping on my baby toe and ripping it open while bending it back. We both almost went flying down the stairs but I held on and got him attached and he went out to greet the passer by with excited barking while I sat down and cried and then had to clean up the blood. I then messaged my girlfriend for sympathy (she is really good at it). It hurt, and then I had to try and put a shoe on and go do my shopping at Costco, I was hobbling and cut the trip as short as I could. Yep I cried... because it hurt A LOT!
