I can resonate with this grandmother’s love!
Can you?

I saw these captions and can’t help but agree with this grandmother’s love!

Singing and cognition



*******
(senyru poem)
********
no office colleagues
no administrative works
cognition declines
**********
with much to command
to staring at ceiling and walls
thus cognition fails
**********
cannot remember
sir, come, water the plants here
guiding hands to pots
********
planning to retire?
as hobby or therapy
consider singing!

A Hindu or a Hindi song?

A few days ago, I joined a fellow Chinese singer in an adventurous singing duet for a Hindu song ” Yeh Kya Huwa” (and I was corrected that it is a Hindi song because Hindu is a religion).

Kids’ silent cry for help



*******
A smile is just a smile
while the pain’s hidden, unseen
until suicides… too late
goes unheeded
********
Kids need a safe space
to express themselves
A need to communicate
their feelings, stress, and anxieties
to build confidence and self-esteem
*********
whose roles are these?
to pick up kids’ silent cries for help?
mental healthcare professionals
need more training?
*******
Healthcare professionals only?
schools, parents, social workers,
and the law enforcers?
Public helplines and
governmental support?
*************************
Forgive me, for all the things I did but mostly for the ones that I did not.
*******
There are wounds that never show on the body that are deeper and more hurtful than anything that bleeds.

A show for a meal

Entertaining meals
*********
I find the latest trends in food industry.
Dancing while pulling noodles
and singing happy birthday
during a steam boat meals,
a healthier option!
********
Melting mozzarella
creating a mozarella fan in the air
Then rolling and wrapping
around the fried chicken, prawn,
a change in a fast food restaurant!
*******
Such creativity
in the food industry now!
*******
How else to whet
a customer’s appetite!

Your day will come

Thinking positively and your day will come!
******
never stop trying
never stop believing
never give up
your day will come
Stephen Hawking
*******
I admire parents who have never stopped trying and never give up on what they believe in on their challenges in life, including children and goals in life.
BECAUSE THE DAY WILL COME!
******
Even patients with cancer readjusted their goals with changing time-frame allotted by the disease!
Even children who are differently-abled may surprise one with their hidden talents!
*******
Be grateful, be happy!

*******
Look at Stephen hawking,
be grateful, be happy!

How safe are our kids?
I was amazed and concerned to see a skinny little kindergarten girl crossing the traffic light on her own in town. The taxi driver assured me that many eyes were watching over her. Who would dare to kidnap her!
Just how safe are our kids back home?

******
Little skinny kid
huge bag on her tiny back
crossing road alone!
who is watching her?
cab driver amused smiling!
The CCTVs!

Ego is like a balloon!
There was a highly-respected neurosurgeon, a head of department. He would greet everyone whenever he walked into the wards; from attendants, nurses to doctors. So much so that they would try very hard to greet him first, the minute they saw him!
Another senior surgeon asked one of the ward staff why they all would greet the head readily but not greet him whenever they saw him! An attendant explained about the above experience!
Such is a person – so high yet so ego-less!

*******
The ego is like a balloon,
easy to inflate and deflate.
Constant self-awareness
will allow us to easily
identify our ego,
once we do,
just acknowledge it,
neither condemn
nor commend.

When your son is 40 and has autism…
I saw this clip in Facebook. Many parents with special children will be able to relate with Duane’s parents. Their concern is who will look after him when they are gone one day.
Do view this video here.
