Early Bird catches... wisdom?

I love the sound of birds croaking in the morning... It's the sound they make before their morning 'coffee' a chirp coming from their bellies! The sound triggers a warm feeling in my body, the one that makes you feel so happy to be alive and enjoying a bit of peace and quiet before the on rush of the noises and sensations of the day.

And when the birds get their groove and the happy choir of chirping begins... more sounds start emerging from the silence of the morning... Dogs barking, brooms sweeping the pavement, trolleys rolling by and the clang of breakfast dishes in the kitchen tell me its time to put down my coffee and go out for a walk...

It's a busy and magical time in Stanley, early morning... Stanley residents are very proud and embrace their connections to nature. It is exciting to see the catches of the day, it is funny as the fishermen and women know I am originally from Australia and always say the fish are too small here ahahahah! The generosity of spirit in the morning is rich and of all the people I know here, the most important thing is life is happiness and they value their lifestyle over money. A rare and fantastic quality of human nature.

I meet my friend and grandmaster of QiGong and learn some wisdom...

"The people of Hong Kong are fortunate, there are 7 days in a week and on 5 of those days there are opportunities to become rich in order to have enough money to make a clean difference to the natural environment in Hong Kong."

Eagerly I await his wisdom..

"on 3 days there is mark 6 (lottery) and on 2 days we have horse racing"

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Why not?
For only HK$ 10-20 per day you have a chance to win 10 million!
If you have 10 million you can make a difference... for now we enjoy all the gifts everyday that nature brings us.
