食無肉, 人瘦 Hannibal or Delectable?

Swapping the new year’s resolution with a bucket list has become my mission possible 2022.  What exactly does a bucket list mean?  Is she or he the person you always want to court but for XYZ reasons, you walk away with a woeful heart of what ifs?  When facing psychological threats(any thinking outside my comfort zone counts as one!), I tend to take it like Dr. Lecter would, settling old scores…. ta-da.

浮生若夢, 疫病戰亂遷徙, 外在世界翻轉, 時感無常且無力.  人到中年去日苦多, 自我期許每年立定志趣目標, 如黑暗混亂中的小小明燈:  去年讀書寫作, 今年精進廚藝, 來年或者重拾球拍, 因為高中網球課被當遺憾, 還有學奏樂器, 義大利文...

家園 World? Why? War?

The world barely even comes out of the pandemic and yet is already at war?!  There is nothing kind about our collective humankind and if any, we are of a very special brand of stupidity.  I won’t try to pretend understanding the complex geopolitics and only wish we could all focus our energy on creation instead of destruction.  That being said, a feeble happy March 14th Pi(e) Day… my friends.

COVID疫情漸緩, 國際紛爭又起, 人類真是最不可愛的生物.  幾世紀建立的美好文明, 強權角力下 摧毀於旦夕.

有餘 I DON’T DO GOSSIP

And which part of it do you not understand?!  The older I get, the less patience I have for people who just refuse to listen.  Friday afternoon after an empowering weekly TB with my team when I was feeling positive(and grateful) to end a grueling week of meeting marathons, I received an infuriating WeChat from an old business partner haggling over opportunities to gossip about some sordid shenanigans.  After a chain of meaningless exchanges, I decided to bid adieu to such burned out ‘friendship’.  I don’t draw these fierce tiger and tigress for the Lunar New Year for no good reasons :P  

送牛迎虎, 也搬至新辦公室!  臨窗遠眺海灣大橋, 背對紅磚和書架, 隔著玻璃牆盯著團隊, 拂肘當我的南面王.

嬝裊 Auld Lang Syne

Should auld acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind?  Don’t be silly.  Old ghosts haunted me left and right from the parting curse of my ex to a miniature Rolleiflex that I spent a fortune on that only made itself useful a handful of times… Dear reader, allow me to reacquaint you with treasures from the past, a retro calendar I designed for the previous brand I served and my bronze leaf tray ‘By The Lotus Pond’.  If you’re compelled to collect the latter, please visit my Etsy boutique :) 

搬回灣區近十年, 家中冗物無上限增加, 2022任務便是去蕪存菁own less, live more.   舊物重見天日, 不免也嘆, LK品味數十年如一, 心頭好始終經典, 古樸, 侘寂; 想想個人風格是如何養成的, 靈魂若參天老樹, 靜謐發芽, 總算活到表裏如一的年紀.

有情亦老 無恨常圓 Amor Omnia Vincit

2021 is coming to an end and instead of trying to cobble together a new year’s resolution, I decided to jump ahead to the bucket list.  After three intricate but thankfully not lethal surgeries this year, checking off the bucket list seems a very sensible thing to do!

2021年度頭條, LK總算圓童年夢想, 出版童書, 意義非凡為紀念恩師S教授!  希望天上的她, 微笑看著慈善基金會團隊.
