A Bittersweet Lunar New Year’s Eve

On the Eve of Lunar (Chinese) New Year, my wife cooked a delicious dinner for the two of us, and we had an enjoyable, peaceful time.  



At the same time, we missed our three daughters, who have all moved away from home, from Hong Kong.  How we would love to have them with us for the dinner, to be home.


At the same time, we are happy that they are safe, free and pursuing their dreams.  They are at a stage similar to what we were at their age.  We are so happy for them, so proud of them, to have dreams and the courage to pursue them.  Each of them face their own challenges, and have suffered for having the courage to pursue their dreams.  



We are sad that they are not home in person.  But we are happy that they are safe, free and pursuing their dreams.  That we are still bonded.
