Dear ALL CHERISHED FRIENDS and FANS!! SEPT 30, 2020
I can’t believe I am here at this junction in my life! My last year in my BIG FIVES! I have to say.. the last 19 years have been a spurt of AMAZING LESSONS and rapid GROWTH on LIFE! I will very much CHERISH each second, minute, day, week and month of my 59th GLORIOUS YEAR!
I am writing only to show my GRATITUDE and DEEP APPRECIATION for all your SUPPORT, DEVOTION, PATIENCE, UNDERSTANDING, KINDNESS, and SO SO MUCH LOVE FOR ME UNWAVERING ALL OF MY GROWING YEARS. I cannot believe HOW BLESSED I AM to have ALL OF YOUR LOVE! I cannot imagine my life without all of you and being able to see you all grow from cutesy, crazy teenagers, into fantastic, responsible, wonderful human beings! Recently.. some 20 odd fans whom have been with me and stood by me all of these past decades had requested a ZOOM BASH, which I was very excited to participate in as I would be able to speak and interact with these now LONG TIME FRIENDS, and hear what YOU all have to say! I was immensely touched by the SURPRISE of my song Lan Tien sung by several members of this group and put together by a long time notable named Kitson whom is now living in London after marrying his long time sweetheart! I love knowing what you all are doing and with this miracle marvel of internet we are able to be intimate and close with a few clicks! I think it is a wonderful idea and I hope to be able to interact with more of all of you in the very near future! Let’s all intermingle and learn and grow with each other.. altho I’m quite GROWN already!
These 20 odd Zoomers asked for a HIKE the next time we are able to see each other so I hope many of you would join and we could start arranging annual or semiannual get togethers! Wouldn’t that be just so much FUN??!!
I just want to say.. I want to have a BLAST.. I want to LIVE MY LIFE as best I can with all the LOVE, BLESSINGS and GIFTS that the UNIVERSE as bestowed upon me! I will always DO MY VERY BEST to be the BEST HUMAN BEING I CAN BE, chasing after the HIGHEST RAINBOW and the wishing the GREATER GOOD for EVERYONE and EVERYTHING!

I was mentally preparing for a pre planned treacherous hike with my frequent hiker pals (all aged under 40 except 1..besides ME!) What can I expect from a name like “Suicide Cliff”?(About “Suicide Cliff”: https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.journeyera.com/kowloon-peak-hike-suicide-cliff/amp/) Ratings being “family friendly” & “moderate” difficulty. Ughhh….I had already hiked a previous 6 out of 10 rating 12 Kilometer mountain hike + 3 kilometers on flat ground to dinner which almost crashed my DNA. Friends made me work hard to eat!
Last Sunday, May 3, was 31 degrees outside, hot blazing sun, as we drove the long contemplative drive from HK to Sha Tin starting point at 2:00PM. My friends accommodated me to start late at 2:30PM cos I pleaded we can end up cooler! We were dropped off at the edge of an industrial overpass in the scorching sun, to meet our fellow hiking members, and I’m wondering I don’t see ANY mountains.. just streets & bridges. When I asked “where’s the mountain?, they point up high & way beyond all the huge apartment towers blocking the way.. to some VERY intimidating MASSIVE mountains! I took a BIG GULP of stifling HOT AIR. OMG.. how come we didn’t just drop off at foot of mountain? Everyone ignored me. Lucky I brought my sun reflecting GOLF umbrella.. My savior. Grudgingly stopped from complaining further, we proceeded to hike more than a mile just to get to the bottom of the mountain. I was huffing and puffing (only me) on these lower road hills just to get to the bottom START POINT of the VV HIGH MOUNTAIN. I was already exhausted and even HUNGRY but I already ate a big sandwich! It was FRIGGIN HOT..
FINALLY.. we got to the bottom of the MAIN MOUNTAIN.. I was almost in tears b4 I started! I was already miserable trying to take the 1st steps going up what seemed such a steep staircase… I only managed about 100 excruciating meters …. and then.. I just couldn’t go any further.. BOO HOO! My friend was trying to push from behind, even pulling me by my umbrella, but the big OX just could not move! I wanted to vomit. The rest of the group disappeared above us already. Many hikers much older than me climbing swiftly past (so embarrassing!). At that moment, I waved my white flag and threw in the towel in shameful DEFEAT.. I’ve climbed more difficult routes, but it was just so hot I couldn’t breathe.
So I dizzily announced to my friend I MUST GIVE UP and leave the group so I don’t pull them back. He was so determined to help me, but noticed my lips were turning BLUE. He was kind to take me back 100 meters, & I managed to push him back to his friends.. I gave him all my drinks, and took only 1 small bottle of water. When I saw him walk back, I felt deflated while drowning in sweat & disappointment. I wondered how my friends would make it up as it was supposed to be a 4 to 5 hour hike, and how I was going to make it home b4 sundown. I had NO IDEA where the heck I was, in HK or KLN even. I started walking aimlessly down the hill to find some life.
Just letting U know how I looked that day. I got down from the Mountain area and started looking for a direction to go in!
I have the worst GPS system and can turn the wrong direction getting off a LIFT. I suddenly felt excited as I remembered when I was in New Zealand shooting a movie, had a day off alone, so I rented a car and start driving somewhere I didn’t plan, with no schedule, no direction, expecting nothing, but hoping for pleasant surprises. I ended up on a beautiful homes area with lovely sea views, nature, and bought a lunch to eat, had a great time and found my way back just trusting to follow my heart.
Walking back down about 15 minutes, feeling much better now, I saw a bus stop wishing I knew which bus to take since Lam was such a fan. Not brave enough. I decided to try walking back to where we were dropped off. There were many underpasses for pedestrians so I quieted my heart to guide me in the right direction. I was feeling the soft warm breeze but blazing sun, and was happy again for my friend, UMBRELLA. I started to get a pace going and after about 20 minutes discovered a lovely tree lined cycling path next to a walking path with a river view. VERY NICE!!
My beautiful NATURE & TREE LINED Bike Path! How Divinely fortunate for me to end up walking on this amazing path! I was so HAPPY!
Time was about 3:15PM. I thought hey.. I came here to hike..I might have failed to climb the mountain, but I can still walk on this beautiful path, so I started exploring my own exciting journey. I kept my pace and after 25 minutes, suddenly had to go to the bathroom, thinking where in the world would I ever FIND ONE!! The oasis appeared miraculously, walking right past a public sports facility with incredibly clean bathrooms and FREE TOILET PAPER! I felt SO BLESSED!!
I now felt like I had an ENERGY BURST…I just kept on going enjoying just everything in my path & didn’t feel like HK was in a pandemic or state of emergency at all… I only realize wow.. HK pple are so healthy! It felt VERY FRESH! Birds were flying and singing, happy families with children chatting & exercising, just living LIFE.
By 4 something… I started thinking of how I was going to get home.. I had played with MTR thought but was worried bout my GPS, but keen for the adventure of finding my way home. I stopped to ask a resting biker texting. Still staring at his phone, he told me there is NO MTR around here. NO MTR? IN HK? HOW? I said Thank you and asked another resting biker. He looked at me very puzzled, thinking hard and said the same, no MTR around here.. U have to go into the other side, where the buildings are. I just didn’t believe it.. HK has MTR’s everywhere! Trudging on.. I saw the bike path winding to a right winding down turn somewhere further so followed my heart LEFT out onto a main street instead with busy traffic whizzing by. Seeing a big traffic sign for Kowloon East with a TUNNEL so at least I’m near a tunnel! I kept going, and finally saw THE SIGN! I quickly sent a photo & text to my PA Rebecca who thought I was still on the mountain, Is this an MTR sign? Does that mean an MTR is nearby? She text back YES!! Yayyy!!
FINALLYYYYY!! MTR SIGN!!!! AGHHH!!! KISS KISS HUG HUG!!!! SO GRATEFUL!!!
I galloped ahead and reached….TA DAAAA… at 4:59pm arrived at Che Kung Temple Station!!!! I made it!
HERE IT IS! TA DAAAA!!! I finally reached the Station! MIRACLE OASIS!!
From there it was super FUN.. I consulted Becca for my route..she directed me to explore the big route board to go from Che Kung to Diamond Hill Green..to Prince Edward Red.. to Admiralty Blue, to CWB then Exit A to Times Square.
WOW What a MAP! My Route is so clear and concise! GPS Dummy can make it HOME!! So much GRATITUDE!! I go GREEN to BLUE!
Haha My First STOP ! SO COOL! To Diamond Hill! 1st Stop!
2nd Train.. this confused me abit.. Which one.? Hmm…I thot was Kwun Tong.. but I know I shouldn’t go THERE… actually it’s Whampoa to switch to my 3rd train! After Consulting Rebecca! Thank you!
RIGHT WAY! Whampao TRAIN.. EASY NOW!!!
I thought Exit A was another train but it was a long, winding underground walk to the exit and there I was, emerging in Times Square!
HALLELUJAH after 1 hour ride!!! Out of Exit A at Times Square! So Fast & Convenient! We R So Lucky!!! I didn’t take anymore photos after the Whampoa because was running after every train after that! Hahaha.. Fast Commuting! Times Square was my 5th and final destination!
It was about 6:00PM by then and total cost for such a long journey by MTR only $16 total!!! How amazing is that!? Taking a 2 hour walk, & 1 hour travel on public transport half way around HK Island with only 1 small bottle of water, & $16 HKD?? I don’t think we can find this anywhere in the world!! When I got to TS, I still had some energy left so I decided to walk home & even went up a big hill just to make up for the hill I didn’t climb.. I made it home by 7:00PM & went to the hospital to eat with Mom. Perfect!
From Times Square walk home❣️ 😆😆 Up da hill 🥵🥵
Walking home from Times Square n Becca spots me from 32 flr hospital window!! Can anyone find Sally? 🤣🤣 🤓🤓
What could have been a completely miserable HOT day turned into a most DIVINELY ENCHANTING exciting experiences I’ve had in a long while!!! I started alone in unknown territory, and all I did was follow my heart & gut, TRUSTING with FAITH that the Universe, & Becca, would gently guide me back home! It was truly invigorating!
Another happy discovery & appreciation was how efficiently well planned many districts are. All were immensely clean, well managed, different color tone for each station, impossible to get lost, and bustling travellers were proper, law abiding, all having a happy Sunday with their friends and loved ones. I have to say each station was People Mountain, People Sea. The whole of HK takes the MTR bcos it’s just a wonderfully efficient & privilege mode of transport! The endless, beautiful, winding, nature rich bike and walking path, with the vast river accent is meticulously designed for the people of HK to enjoy, the leisure exercise with several small parks off-side the paths to enjoy, very clean restrooms, under freeway pedestrian crossings to shopping malls & apartment complexes opposite the health boosting outdoors provided.
HK is actually so compact.. it’s probably not easy to get lost, as all roads are designed so meticulously. Everything is so accessible and there is a FLOW of what is natural and manmade merging together in remarkable harmony.. but most of all .. it’s all so enjoyable, even on such a hot, humid day. I felt so very BLESSED during this carefree journey, and realized that we all CREATE our OWN JOY! We can choose to be deflated and defeated by what seemed impossible for me, but, it was POSSIBLE to magically conjure another alternative and, I still enjoyed that burst of energy & accomplishment for a full two days after! What if we applied this to all aspects of our life!!?? Wouldn’t that be wonderful?
As I reached the MTR, my friends also reached their beautiful HEAVEN IN HKG Destination! Look how amazingly beautiful this incredible view is!
As I find my MTR..my friends reach their destination❣️❣️😅😅 Look at heaven in Hong Kong❣️❣️
GOD’S GIFT of Sunset…I pretend that’s a skinny young me❣️❣️😅😅
Our youngest 16 year old hiking member❣️❣️🧚🏽♂🧚🏽♂🧚🏽♂ Isnt that just breathtaking?
Hong Kong is full of these abstract trails with fantastic mapping routes which provide GOD’s VIEW FROM HEAVEN ABOVE! We are so privileged to have so many stunning trails to walk with a unique experience on every trail not seen anywhere else.. there is so much to offer in Hong Kong and it will take a whole year to finish walking them.. I’m eager to explore and will get myself fitter and ready for the Autumn to tackle one a week!
Hey everyone.. if U have all read to the end of this long article, please see the song which I was inspired to post with the article… then it became a journey to tell a story after Vicky tenderly post some photos to go along with the video.. then we really got into it and put something we felt very interesting together.. hope you will like to share it with us and please share it with your friends and family too!
How is EVERYONE??!! From all over the world??!! I hope you are all fine! I have been thinking a lot about everyone and I miss everyone! I thought it would be a great time to try to meet up online again! It’s been quite an incredible, unbelievable time, something that none of us have ever been through in our entire lives, yet something which we are all experiencing simultaneously at different levels, at different times as a collective WHOLE! I have always been reading that all humans, creatures, and nature on this Planet is considered as ONE WHOLE BEING, all connected at every level, and I didn’t quite understand this at all, until recently, until NOW. This is now so very true at every angle we view it. Everything we do, say or act, is a collaborated force of energy, and we are all affected as a collective WHOLE. So it is important that what we do or say will be a KIND & Compassionate consideration for the collective whole, for the GREATER GOOD of this Earth, for all of the living beings on this planet, including ourselves, the innocent animals & creatures whom share our precious space, and caring for our outer environment as well as our inner environment!
I hope to have a video chat with all of you about this and I hope you can all give us your questions, or any topics U want to talk about if you like, and to make it possible to see how everyone is doing, give each other lots of LOVE and good wishes for this treasure time we are given to practice and find our best selves and how we can benefit ourselves, each other, and this world collectively!
My time is pretty flexible now so I can meet you all around 2:00PM after lunch, or after 9:00PM for a 2 to 3 hour chat however long you would like it to be! Hahaha.. Everyday except for Tuesdays is fine so I hope we will gather everyone’s time and questions together and then make a date about 2 weeks later or so?
I really hope you are all coping well and being able to take this quiet time to fully think about what your purpose might be in this lifetime. We all have a purpose.. and we are supposed to find it. Life is SO PRECIOUS and we need to do all we can to help ourselves and help others as I have always emphasized.. Helping others can just be offering support, or listening to them, or giving them you’re GOOD & Positive energy.. and creating our own good and positive energy while practicing the Act of doing good deeds. I also want to talk about TAP as ThinkActPOSITVE is not just a call to think positive but to actually BE positive and what that really means! I will have to practice it myself too! So I will wait for your feedback and I hope to get all my fans and friends from all over the Asian region or anywhere else anyone has time in the World as we ALL NEED LOTS OF LOVE and BIG BEAR HUGS NOW!! Looking forward to hearing from everyone!!!!
How R all of U? I hope U R all doing Ok at this difficult period in our lives. Many people are steeped in sadness, anxiety and panic. I realize there is so much negativity and strife happening all around us, as our health and world is in crisis, but it’s times like these.. that we must work harder to find the inner stillness in the midst of the storm to steady our minds and our hearts, so we can carry on, as this is the necessity of life. Sometimes it is needed to accept what it is & take this time to help ourselves and extend a helping hand to others. I know it is hard to see the POSITIVE in this situation, but we are always given 2 choices. If we don’t see the positive, we are left with the negative, and how is negative going to help? It will bring us deeper into misery and leave no room to prosper. Positive thinking, can shine a light to whatever darkness is on the horizon, and give a smile to our faces, for all things will have dark and light. I believe this is where ThinkACTPOSITVE (TAP❣️) can apply in the best way possible❣️ We can take this time to think positively, do something positive, think more deeply, and creatively, in a positive manner.
Although with thought for your health and well-being, I hope you will try to alleviate your fear, find the JOY & LOVE in this moment for someone, or something which U R so blessed with. We sometimes think of all that we lack, yet forget what we so abundantly have in our own hearts & homes❣️ I feel so blessed just to have a beating heart, two hands and legs, a thinking MIND, that we can DO something GOOD with it❣️ We can find the SILVER LINING in every single day❣️ Just realize that you are so “BLESSED”, and there is always going to be night and DAY, dark & LIGHT, rain & SHINE, moon & SUN, clouds & BLUE SKY, YOU AND ME❣️❣️❣️ We all have a CHOICE❣️❣️ Choose to TAP❣️❣️ ThinkACTPOSITVE❣️ EVERYDAY❣️❣️ FIND it in your HEART to BLESS, & LOVE EVERYONE❣️❣️❣️
In our now warm, cocooned homes, we can learn to be creative, clean out and organize our homes to put everything in an organized manner, learn something new, educate ourselves on a new skill which you can use in your future like I’ve been studying about the immune system and how to build a strong one. Research & create simple, interesting dishes at home to eat & have a cooking show with your family. Take up a sport, go out to have a wonderful walk in the colder weather, there are so many walking places in HK, enjoy nature, biking, hiking, listen to music, reading, anything which can keep us calm, serene and keeping yourself healthy if you have the extra time on your hands. It’s important to build a STRONG BODY and mind.. that is one that can get through challenges in life as there will always be ups and downs❣️
I also wanted to share that I recycle my own masks. I don’t know if it is the right way, but it seems very wasteful to use the mask just once. I put a thick tissue or hand towel paper folded into ¼ to put inside the mask so when I only need to throw the paper inside away and can save the mask in a reusable Ziploc bag and keep the mask clean by either using a hot blow dryer to blow dry the inside of the mask, and keeping the mask safely wrapped in a hand paper towel b4 using again. I have been using mine for over 1 week now❣️ I’m not asking everyone to use this method but I also feel we can try to save and recycle otherwise there will be so much more discarded masks and even the hospital does not give out masks anymore and the prices are raised too high outside for normal purchase. I also want to share that white vinegar can also be used as a disinfectant and we use a few parts vinegar and water at home to clean our floors for many years now. It is not known to kill germs, but is a good disinfectant, cleaner, biodegradable and has no smell.
Let’s try to take this time to do whatever we can think of for the HIGHEST & GREATEST GOOD and for ourselves, our family & each other❣️ Take good good care everyone❣️❣️❣️
I’m sharing a recording of a song & the beautiful scenery of the beauty we can always see if we choose to.. Pls excuse the awful jittery camera job I did.. hahaha..
Final note to all: I really hope we can be a UNITED COLLECTIVE of Individual Human beings, who can have the WHOLE HEART and GRACE to PRAY and THANK ALL those Authorities, Professionals, Big and Small, Doctors, Nurses, healthcare workers, volunteers whom leave their families behind in different cities to HELP, whom R working 24 hours a day to sheer exhaustion at the front lines in the hospitals and anywhere else to help save all those whom have been infected and fighting so hard to protect the rest of us, Globally, from being infected as well. Let’s also PRAY FOR those whom have fallen sick and struggling thru the quarantines & illness. This is really a wakeup call to be compassionate to ourselves and our FELLOW MAN. No matter what we are living on this Planet together and really have to SO KIND to ourselves and all others by being GOOD to each other❣️❣️❣️❣️ Thank you all for reading and let’s PRAY TOGETHER FOR THE GREATER GOOD❣️❣️❣️❣️
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY EVERYONE, LOVE ALL THOSE AROUND YOU❣️❣️🙏🙏😇 I HAVE YOU IN MY HEART TOO❣️❣️❣️🙏🙏😇😇
