A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door.

SON: 'Daddy, may I ask you a question?'
DAD: 'Yeah sure, what it is?' replied the man.
SON: 'Daddy, how much do you make an hour?'
DAD: 'That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?' the man said angrily.
SON: 'I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?'
DAD: 'If you must know, I make $50 an hour.'
SON: 'Oh,' the little boy replied, with his head down.
SON: 'Daddy, may I please borrow $25?'

The father was furious, 'If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I don't work hard everyday for such childish frivolities.'
The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door.
The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?
After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down , and started to think:
Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $25.00 and he really didn't ask for money very often The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door.

'Are you asleep, son?' He asked.
'No daddy, I'm awake,' replied the boy.
'I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier' said the man. 'It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you. Here's the $25 you asked for.'
The little boy sat straight up, smiling. 'Oh, thank you daddy!' he yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills.
The man saw that the boy already had money, started to get angry again.
The little boy slowly counted out his money, and then looked up at his father.
'Why do you want more money if you already have some?' the father grumbled.
'Because I didn't have enough, but now I do,' the little boy replied.
'Daddy, I have $50 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.'

The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little son, and he begged for his forgiveness.
It's just a short reminder to all of you working so hard in life. We should not let time slip through our fingers without having spent some time with those who really matter to us, those close to our hearts. Do remember to share that $50 worth of your time with someone you love.
Have we forgotten what is really important in life? Too caught up in money, personal
ambitions, and forgot how to enjoy and appreciate the sweet simplicities in life?
If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of hours. But the family & friends we leave behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives.

Last week I got a abrasion on my feet and I though it’s just an abrasion and nothing much will happen until I notice my feet today.

It turn into some infection when you don’t take care of it. But luckily I got this:

It’s call “Green Grass Oil” in chinese and it do wonders for wounds. It can stop bleeding, enhance the healing process but the only down side is that IT HURTS when you apply it into the wound and I really mean PAIN. But still it enhance your healing. I still remember holding someone down and applying it in my NS camp and tell him WE DID ALL THESE BECAUSE WE CARE….

Anyway Mr Cai is going to teach you some simple knowledge on how to handle a wound:

Before putting on plasters or dressings:

1) wash your hands and DRY IT

2) Clean the wound under running tap water, or use an alcohol-free wipe, but do not use antiseptic because it may damage the skin.

3) Gently Dry the are using a clean towel

4) apply your plaster

But it’s not for all cases some cases it just won’t stop bleeding, or deep wounds that’s where you need to GO SEE DOCTOR and apply pressure to the wounds to stop bleeding.

So don’t leave your wound unattended or YOU WILL NEED “GREEN GRASS OIL” or something even worst.
