looking back

here are lessons that have taken me nineteen years to learn, and i'm still on the curve:
  • there's a time to speak and a time to be silent. the latter happens more frequently than you would expect statistically. when in doubt, grit teeth bite tongue shut up. 
  • trust God, surrender your dreams to Him is not something you say to your kids. it's what you say to yourself. your kids can say that to themselves subsequently but that's their lesson.
and here's what i've learnt from almost fifty years of observation:
  • perseverance and nagging work. i finally have chinese script on my keyboard because my father refuses to communicate with me in english.
