The wise words of Lao Tsu
*This too will pass * When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be * When you realize that all things change, there is nothing you will try to hold on to * Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage

Birthday Bonus
Another birthday came and went and I was totally looked after and spoilt by my friends, school and students here in China and my family and friends back home.
A big thankyou to Judy who sent me a lovely traditional "Christmas Fruit Cake" and "Shortbread Biscuits" for Christmas and a very cool "Sayings of the Buddha and other Masters" book for my birthday:)The sayings are so uplifting I might start picking out some favourite to post more regularly on here. Mum and Dad, THANKYOU for the Christmas/Birthday parcel full of goodies. I really love the Perfume very much and I now know that Father Christmas will still find me here in China and fill a stocking for me on Christmas eve...(How old am I ? :-)Here in China I had students giving me cards, not shy in saying their love for me (which really makes your heart feel warm), many renditions of "Happy Birthday", a day or two of all the kids walking past wishing me "Happy Birthday", blackboards decorated with "Happy Birthday" messages, Dinner and beautiful gifts from my friends, "Birthday Cake"......I really am treated so kindly here. Everyone is so generous, kind hearted and loving towards me. I am so GRATEFUL!
