I saw a medium-sized ant climbing up my arm. Instead of following my habitual tendency of swiping it away and unintentionally killing it, I grabbed a piece of paper so lead the ant to it. Then once the ant is walking the paper, I placed the paper on the floor so tat the ant can walk on the floor in 1 piece.

時常幫助一些朋友，當他們有困難時我會去幫助他們，可能是天生的性格使然吧。小的時候就比較喜歡看江華飾演的聖僧，希望自己也能像他那樣慈悲平和。成長過程中多有障礙，或許這就是因緣吧。

I meet shelter-less, car-less people who live wherever they find a small space. I noticed so many of all ages live this lifestyle. The one thing that is troubling is they have no transportation like a simple bicycle in which they so much desire and need. A few evenings ago, as i was riding my bike up the hill towards the great mountain canyon to dwell for the night. I came upon meeting a young man with his head held low but eyes up gazing at me. What i noticed was his beautiful smile and humility. He was pulling a small wagon that held all his possesions down the from…

We helped set up the chairs, tents and banner for Celebrating Elder’s Day last weekend. Some of us volunteers also installed 480 plants over the weekend as well as a part of CTTB’s new retention pond/sewage system. Only 3500 plants left to go! Very hard work, but worth every bead of sweat! 🙂

My family lives in the five floor of a six-storey building.There are many old mans living in it. One day I found that the lights in the three and five floor had been wrong. These two lights are in the public corridor. It is dangerous for the elderly to go downstars on the evening. So I asked my parents for a help and replaced them at once . After solving this problem,I am very glad to see these lights are shining at night .It’s useful for the old man in case of any unexpected accident.
