days

you know. there are days when you'd be given time to settle. to find peace within yourself. so today is just words.

2day after work, i went for a jog ard the neighbourhood. i've never gotten ard much, this time i decided to just walk in peace. as i walk along, the path leads me to a quiet street under the chirping of birds & afternoon skies.

the street on either side reveals detached houses, exquisite-design houses of medium-high class with beauty greenery herbs or japanese clay statues in their fronts. as i pass the houses, big cars are parked.. kids wandering out in the typical 5pm space & grownups gathered in front of the porch, offering a very warmth & peaceful home feeling.

i went on with my ipod, the songs you'd be hearing nw. i settled down & wished one day, i'd be having a house of my own. as like this one. as the song went on with the verses "原來風雪可以讓我堅強讓我感動".. i went to think abt myself. its not an easy road in front, but the hardships will make me stronger. i tght abt damit as an inspiration.. n the fact he motivated me. overall, the problems i face is nothing. compared to more of others.

as the song with the costa de sol tunes play, i was walking in town as sun sets to find a chinese foodstore. the tune reminded me of the days last year.

i remembered the song plays more often in the bus every morning as i head to the city for a daily trip to the hospital. i looked out to the city river & skies and reminisce.. how long do i have left in this isolated place? overall, the classes are good reflecting the days as uni students. nw rather, its more of work & responsibility.

i found a chinese restaurant. ordering sweet sour pork. i missed the rice. its been 2 months i've not eaten rice. i typically miss the style & aura of a chinese place. with the chef cooking, the sound of wok hitting onto the spatula & cantonese speeches. im very chinese.

i very much also miss one hk friend who changed my life arnd & never made me anymore happier. i've never been happier than the days i met you. you'll always be part of my memory.

if time goes by, life changes.. we'll always be heading forward. find our peace & meaning. eventually.. we'll find the hope we need in life.
