Maybe We Affect the Universe More Than We Think...

It rained today in Hong Kong. Proper rain.

To understand this significant moment, you must first know that I haven't seen rain since the first few weeks I got here. I haven't seen proper, heavy, real-droplets, visible-to-the-naked-eye rain yet since being in HK. Because in HK, it mists. The mist that comes from clouds that are flying lower than usual is normal in HK. Real raindrops is not (from my experience). And after coming from a rain-heavy climate, I missed it.

I missed it enough to make a commentary on it in my information page. No less than yesterday. I told everyone I'm connected to that I miss the sounds of heavy rain.

Lo and behold, I wake up from my nap to a familiar tune.

I go outside, and there she is in all her glory. To the others on this island, they seem annoyed, inconvenienced and trying to avoid being poked in the eye with an umbrella, accidentally poking others with their own. But to me, I walk the streets with a smile on my face. And nothing to "protect" my senses.

The rain laughs playfully and teases my skin. "Hey, didja miss me?"

Yes, my friend, I did.

Hey, the one thing that I missed the most is the every afternoon heavy rain in Ecuador. Ah, to snuggle up for a nap during the afternoon rain after a hard morning mountain bike ride is heaven. To walk under it, however, is youth. (i.e. nuts)

Thanks for your blogs. I've enjoyed them.

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of troubles when I felt unhappy missing knowledge about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright pessimistic person.
I have never thought that there weren't any need in big initial investment.
Nowadays, I'm happy and lucky , I begin take up real money.
It's all about how to choose a proper partner who uses your funds in a right way - that is incorporate it in real business, parts and divides the income with me.

You may ask, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to answer the truth, YES, there are. Please get to know about one of them:
