Hope is Given to Those who Believe in it

Been wanting to pay this place a visit for quite a while. Not that I'm a strong believer, but at least it's worth a visit and try.

Thursday, I was wondering why my Mum suddenly asked me to accompany my grandma, together with her for my grandma's eye checkup. The reason was they're going to the Kwan Im Temple at 178 Waterloo Street after the appointment as I did mention to her before that I wanted to visit that place.

Even my ex-colleagues also encouraged me to go and ask for blessings.

To my surprise, even on an ordinary weekday, it was pretty packed. Can't imagine what it looks like during weekend. Paid respect once we stepped into the entrance. Then we went in and my mum used the divining sticks, "Qian" to help me asked for my luck in work. It's an average Qian, and it advises me to wait and be patient. Well, just hope the day will come really soon...

One other, in fact the main reason we went was to ask for blessing for my sis. Wish for her good health... Her advice was to be herself, and don't worry about the rest. Heed the advice given. Well, all that are really what she needs now, especially since young she's been very obstinate and refuses to listen to any advice. As time goes, I think it develops into narrow-mindedness. Whatever it is, we'll be there supporting her until the day she's willing to listen...
