Live life to the fullest and JUST DO IT! Life is too short and No Take 2. I don't want to miss my son growing up stages, I want to spend more time with my mom, enjoy tea with my darling whenever I feel like, travel while I am still fit to walk and share my experiences with more people .....
I can almost guarantee, nobody can help you to do what you want to do.
Just like I am not able to express the excitement or what the experiences my dad has gone through during his all the above vacations. All I can do is to compile them and share part & pieces here. (this is one of his 'To-do' list and is a good reminders for me - NO WAIT, or SEE HOW, again, JUST DO IT!!! I don't want to regret when looking back....)
我还记得爸爸说等他有空再把他的旅游日记整理出来...可是已经没有机会了.
这也是为什么我这几年我都在做我喜欢的事情、我只要对我自已做的负责任。
我不想错过我儿子长大的过程、我想多陪陪我妈妈、可以隨时随意和老公喝茶、不想走不动了才去旅行、也想跟更多人分享健康.
因为只有我自己才知道我要的是什么，只有我可以選擇我要的人生。

Thank you Uncle Fong, very warm and touching messages.
冯伯伯为爸爸写的最后一篇文章
The message I like to deliver, work life balance and do spend more time if your parents still around. Buy them expensive stuffs - what is that for them to show off?
Bring them for good food - just think twice if they have strong denture to chew!
Going overseas trip - are they fit to walk?
孝顺不能等，今天回家就多陪陪你父母吧
The very simple thing which we can do everyday, spend some time with them whenever you can, or do some activities together which will cheer up their day, greet them in the morning, smile to them and listen to them (even you might have heard the stories for many times ^-^)
感恩所有的一切
Treasure every moment NOW and is far more meaningful than what we do after that........
只要已经尽力就好。不要有遗憾
NAMASTE
