Birthday is the most meaningful day to you despite it is meaningless to many other people. Holiday may be meaningless to those retired but it is very meaningful to many of us. Who would care if you are going to have your birthday unless your birthday is on holiday. Don’t call me if your birthday is not on holiday!!

Having a chance to talk with one of my relatives tonight, I was kind of surpised with what she told me. We always have preception on people by appreance. We never know the actual story behind the scene. All families have their own difficulties, whether they can say it or not.

Mom asked me a very interesting question today - “Why my child haven’t given her any call so far”. She knew my child would call my wife’s father from time to time. She bugged me for not allow my child to talk with her when she called. The fact is that my child does not want to receive call when he is watching TV. So, most of the time, I simply do not ask my child to talk with his grandma because he will reject it anyway. Also, I got to emphasis that I had never requested my child to call anyone of his relatives. The point is pretty simple - You know I do not like to make phone calls often myself. Not to mention requesting my child to make calls. According to my observation, that is the consequence of the role in the family hierarchy. From what we have learnt from our parents, grandpa and grandma are the ones to be respected. They are high up on the mountain and can never be objected. Yet, in my wife’s family tree, they are just 2 old friends who always come to play and feed him. As what I told you before, my wife can call her parents by name - weird?! That is understandable why my child would like to call his grandpa from time to time (He seldoms call my wife’s mom). In our education system, we emphasis too much on what we suppose to do but not on the mind set. If you do not put all your love and all your heart to your children, don’t expect much from them. I think they can feel it. I am still learning all this. Want to share with you two.

Your mom may not be the one who you love most. But your mom is definitely one of those who love you most. You have to fair to her.

You never know when will be the peak or the bottom of the property market. Like what we have done on the stock market, we still buy high and sell low even though we have lots of experience. If only 5% of the stock investors can gain from the stock market, how can we expected we can gain a lot from the property. Don’t wait for the peak or the bottom. Buy it if you need it; otherwise, you better don’t unless you want to invest on it.

If you had not take good care to you siblings, this is a good time to start doing somethings for them. Of course, since you are not the one who gave birth to your silblings, you are not obligate to do so. Your parents should be responsible for that. But when you think of the deepest meaning in life, take care of your siblings is a piece of puzzle in your life. Life will not be completed if that piece of puzzle is missing. Yes, you feel free when you have no dependent. But, that is also no fun at all. You are just being alone all the time. Your siblings are the ones who make your life complete.

Today when I was taking the MTR back home, I heard of a nice ringtone from the mobile of the person sitting next to me. It was the prelude of a famous song which is very easy to hear. There are so many types of ring tones on the market. One can easily download their favourite ringtones from the mobile service operators. To me, I think the crying voice of my children are the best ringtone. Whenever I heard of that sound, I wake up immediately. More effective than my alarm.
