|| A very cold winter it has been

Simply the coldest in my memory of the days in the US, there is no relief in sight, life goes on and can never under-estimate the tensity of human beings.  I feel I have already survived the coldest days in the past few weeks, now this physical coldness, is nothing to compare to them.

I went back home in seven years, such a long time, how did I live the seven years, one by one, I don't know but I did.  The flight back home was two three hours late, when I was on the taxi, I saw many lights beaming from the very far buildings, but the lights were all in cold shades of blues.  I thought they'd be the warm browns, but so many of them were fluorescent blues ... there were lots and lots of blues.  Everyday was filled with small things-to-do so that there wouldn't be any boredom, but there was.  I saw the best of friends, but they were worth nothing, not the trip from tens of thousands of miles away.  I said yes and I said no, I smiled.  There was no drama ... but it's free, very very free.

The lifetime years, the year of 13 and the year of 14.  Maybe finally I realized that the only warmth could come from nowhere but here.  Here are a few new year's resolution - 1) work less 2) manage finance 3) waste no food 4) home improvement 4) travel the slow pace.
