Oh! What a life.

I sent a package to a dear friend of mine in Canada for Christmas. Obviously I sent it 3 weeks or so before Santa did. However it never arrived! This friend of mine checked with the post office in late January. Today it is her birthday and I was not aware of it. I felt so bad and wished that I had sent her something.

To my utter surprise, the package I sent to her last December arrived today, on her BIRTHDAY! The delay was on purpose and it is more meaningful that she received the present on this special day.

Sometimes we have to be patient and wait for things to happen. Fret not when what we hope to occur didn't come true because it is not always a bad sign. Good omens are fostering elsewhere if we are not just too quick to react and too fast to judge.

The way is to understand the movement and the rest. Know when to act with firmness and to wait with detachment. Know when to ride on steadfastly and to apply our skills gently. Then we will have peace within. The trick is knowing the right timing.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KUAN! MAY ALL THAT YOU WANT COME TRUE! MAY YOUR PATH TO SUCCESS BE FREE FROM OBSTACLES.
