Things are gearing up here this week for the Lunar New Year, 2009 being the Year of the Ox. Markets are well-stocked with all the necessary supplies for the holiday, bulk teas, all sorts of paper decorations, red, of course – a most auspicious color. There’s also a variety of dried fishes - prawns, jelly fishes, squid. I wish there was a way to share the aroma in this market – culture shock to the eyes and nose.
It's not just about the food though.
So the new year begins again. It’s kind of like a mulligan in the game of life. If you failed to keep your new year’s resolutions, or even make any, not to worry. You can resolve to do whatever you want to do whenever you’re ready. Any day can be new year’s day.
Gong Xi Fa Cai.
