Lydia and I just got back from Taiwan! It was a very packed vacation because not only did we eat and play, we also cleaned and formed relationships.
Well... the main purpose of this trip back to Taiwan was to help grandpa and grandma clean and move into their new house. Their new house is standing where the old house used to be. The old house was over 100 years old, but it was too old to be in a livable condition now. The new house was fabulous because doesn't look like it belonged in that little fishing village, but in Santa Monica or something.
This time, I realized that my grandparents are getting older and their bodies are not as flexible and able as before. My younger cousins were also growing and becoming more mature. Time is passing and yet sometimes I feel as if I'm standing still. When will I be able to wake up and let go of my hold on my own childish thoughts? When will I be able to think outside of myself and think for others? When will I be able to make myself useful not only to others but to God as well?
