After 3 months

I came to Dublin 3 months ago. After 3 months, what has happened?

Red Leaves

I am always pleased with some small things. I was touched by these leaves as I encountered them. Backgrounded by the old wall,they impressed me so much. Is Fall or Winter coming? Not very sure. Everything is different to before when i was in China, even the feelings. Sometimes I keep thinking, but I know I just think about nothing. For me life is too big to be thought. But another time, life is as small and beautiful as the red leaf.In the wind they fell and danced , falling ,falling… … up and down… … Who said:

To see the world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower;
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour. –by William Blake (1757-1827) in <Auguries of Innocence，1863>

But i think this poem has a unique lingering charm in Chinese:

一沙一世界,
一花一天国；
君掌盛无边,
刹那含永劫. -Translated by Li Shutong李叔同（弘一法师）.

Some Chinese friends said they don’t the weather in Ireland,but why not find something we like now that we live in Dubln?

Happiness is a journey

Work like you don’t need the money,
Love like you have never been hurt,
and dance like no one’s watching.

Happiness Is A Journey – By Father Alfred D’Souza

To live like it is the last day
