circles and cycles of life,
alternating between ideals, beliefs and actions.
1. the tree lives on
2. more vegan friends to party with.
3. experienced more kindness in hospital
4. taxi
5. grounded, and happy to be.
6. inner vistas
7. Gramma Yew went well.
8. love 'tatoes
9. ten years and counting..
- [93.9] notes to self
http://www.petitiononline.com/treesavi/petition.html
(not a tree-hugger, but this tree made me feel good
when i accidentally discovered it)
2. tried to be vegetarian - like Uncle Ron Smith
lasted as long as i didn't see wasabi
(was told that all meats have a secret poison
when the animals were killed and they didn't want to die.. yikes..)
actually, everything's tainted with chemicals
3. made some nurse friends,
and learnt some medical care -
(but not that brave to act on this job,
i sure appreciate how they care for the bedridden)
4. learnt to navigate,
got lost, got detoured, got experience too-
(and got a GPS mapping system and bus guide now)
5. re-discovering as a tourist in my own country -
(enjoying the re-discoveries, especially food)
6. took many, many photos and videos of moments in time -
marvelling at what details there are in the clouds and nature
(human nature)
7. realize preparing for that final departure call is
fraught with living anxieties that glorify the trivial -
(live happy, leave happy)
8. made fresh mash potatoes,
with the secret ingredients:
Hokkaido butter and really fresh cream mil.
(i could be semi-vegan with this and ice-cream)
9. sadly sent in my resignation decision to
a boss who's been mentor and family this past 8 years.
(thank you, but it's time to come home..
i'm happy to be home)
