We moved again

Recently, I found I don't feel excited of moving anymore. This used-to-be exciting idea now is bothering, even I still enthusiastically love traveling.

I still do so whether it helps.

I found this picture when I was sorting out the images I took in China. I took this one before I went on my trip to China two weeks ago.  

The deadly earthquake shook China.  Thousands of people died.

One night I dreamed of my long way passed grandfather, and my wife dreamed her long way passed grandma in the same night.  We are not superstitious, but we still stopped by the monastery in Chinatown.  We prayed whether it helps.

Are we really equal?

In the weekend, we saw this magazine cover everywhere in the city.  Suddenly, my wife asked me if we are really equal.  She told me a sentence she heard in the Bay Area during the campaign: Life is a bitch, don't vote another one.  I just don't have the answer, perhaps never will.

The pictures were taken in Shenzhen, China, and Kunming, China.  I found I never could sit behind the viewfinder and look at these as a I am a stranger.

what should i remember?

I received this picture from my grandpa's sister via email.

The picture was taken in 1981 when my great grandma passed away. Looking through everyone in the picture, I recall what I suppose to remember. I guess since I was only 5-year by then, half of the relatives in the picture I didn't know them at all. When I reached to the sentence in my grandma's email "11 of them in the picture have passed away", I didn't know what I could say, instead I put this picture here to relive my sentiment.

I was the little boy in a sweater standing in front of my sister.
