Moon things II
I am talking about "Time"!
The most valuable thing in life... No matter how rich, powerful you are. Time is always running away from you quietly, gracefully.
Treasure every moment with your beloved ones.

This is Mid Autumn Festival 2015
I think this practice was not more since 1980…
I dropped by Haagen-Dazs seeing there are long queue buying
Ice-cream Cake , oh, a Delux Collection is Selling HK$1,099 for 8 tiny cakes.
And I bought one box “petite Collection" with HKD$238 ;
petite means prince, that is a way to describe something small or cheap… That
is the cheapest one in Haagen-Dazs!
Whilst I saw some of the kids are urging their mother buying
this and that… I should say those are lucky kid from the Middle Class. They
never know how hard money could be earned, sweat, pain, something we have to
sell our pride for the money… I do.. man… I had a chance the customer scolded
me “ FXXX You" three times… without knowing me at all because of some machine
issues… Well., I could not say or argued with it… as he is insane… nothing could stop him… let
it be…
If you don't have that bad experience, you are the lucky one….
In fact in the world there are more people
who we should respect them, especial, those are the lower class of people… Those
who wears nice suit and an expensive watches may be some of the worst guy in
the business world.
I am from a Poor family living in Tung Tau Estate, those
days, they are those people as from resettlement… now we don't have this terms’
Resettlement” anymore…
I think There are still a lot of people does know the taste
of Hamburger likes, they never go going any Dim Sum of Yam Cha at all, they have never tried the
taste of a good piece of meat. They never gone into any movie…They never had a
chance going to Swim at beach… they never had a chance to buy a nice piece of
toy they love to have...
This is Hong Kong..
if there is a window drops into the street accidentally, probably the glasses
will hit 5 billionaires in Central… no kidding…
On the other hands there are people relying Government
support for a living as they have no work, no money at all.
There are people who save money the whole life may not be
buying a house with size of a Comfort Room for some people’s houses at Mid-level.
However I have learn that there are a lot of good people who
is not rich but they support and adopted children who are poor and offer them
place to sleep, eat and education, to be honesty who could be so good to give
the best of motherhood love to someone outside. They are those people who
deserve our respect and learning.. and I know one mother had supported 9
children from 8 different families. And she had two sons of her own…
Love could be unlimited… I know a woman who is so kind to animal,
she passed by and saw a dog at the bush under the flyover on a rainy evening,
the dog was weak, apparently sick, wet though sober. In pain and misery, her eyes
caught the lady and would like to say something, “help me!” Immediately the lady understood and immediately
brought her into the veterinarian by a taxi… and The vet inspected the dog and
told her, the dog had a final stage of cancer… nothing can help… She cried and stayed
with the dog whole night tried to feed her something the Dog might like to eat…
and the Dog gave the kind lady eye with of gladness…warmth and satisfaction, probably with smile. And The dog received her final respect from
a human being, and left this world….
I like this woman, and I had met her and talked to her about
her own dogs… of course if you don't like dog, you may not understand what I am
trying say… or the chap who killed 59 school kids and hurt 200 in cold blood on 22 July 2011 in Norway
may not understood…too!
This is a time of Happiness, and Joys, but we have to
share ours to others remember no one had the same “fate” like you and I that
can have moon cake today. Not Even a Moon Cake!
Giving is a blessing!
May Everyone would find their Full Moon Dream Tonight!

Do you care about your Life?
JRD Tata had a friend who used to say that he lost his pen
very often. He would use only very cheap pen so that he need not worry about
losing it. He was so worried about carelessness habit.
JRD suggested him to buy the costliest pen he could afford
and see what would happen.
He did that and purchased a 22 carat sold Gold Cross pen.
After nearly six months JRD met him and asked him if he
continued to misplace his pen.
His friend said that he was very careful about his costly
pen and he was surprised how he had changed!
JRD explained to him that the value of the pen made the
difference and there was nothing wrong with his character or him as a person.
This is what happens in our life.
We are careful with things which we value most.
* If we value our Health, we will be careful about what,
when and how we eat;
* if we value our Friends, we will treat them with respect;
* if we value Money, we will be careful while spending;
Concern on what to invest.
* if we value our Time, we will not waste it.
*if we value Relationship we will not break it.
Carefulness is a basic trait all of all we have, we know
when to be careful.
Carelessness only shows what we don't value...Have a careful
life.
Same thing happens to me as I care my friends, Colleagues,
customers, families, daughters as much as my current watch I used to wear: A
Rolex Day Date Ref 18039. Well, I used to carry a Tiffany Sixteenth 14KT solid
gold Bamboo in a Hermes lizard pen case. Actually, I have never lost any pen in
my life.
Remarks JRD Tata (1904-1993) is ex-Chairman of Tata Group, Founder of
TCS, Tata Motors, Titan Industries, Air
India. Tata Tea.

Tiffany CT60 Series
Tiffany CT60 Series
There is a few Hi end Jewelers who does make their watches
top of the choices…
Cartier, Bulgari, Chamuet, Chanel, Louis Vuiton, Dior…Amongst
these all this New York Company Tiffany has been started to “comeback” again.
The 178 year-old Hi end Jeweler Tiffany & Co. is back
again with CT60 series that make most of their admirers empty pocket.
The CT60 pieces take their name from the Initials of the
company founder Charles Lewis Tiffany and the 60 seconds in a New York Minute.
The Line was inspired that President Franklin Delano
Roosevelt got for his birthday in 1945 and that he was seen in Photographs
wearing at the Yalta Conference a few months before the end of WWII.
Tiffany has been a name for me as I still could remember one
of my Japanese Company staff who had saved money one year to come to HK to buy
his first Tiffany Sterling Silver watch… I was there to help her buying it in
Mistukoshi.
I had a few Tiffany and I like the way they are made watch
as they are…never be one of the compromised design with the main stream…
Look at this CT60 series… ALL looks a great classic… I like
the one in Pink Gold.
