live the moment

Today an old friend of mine told me that my blog is sort of depressing. From now on, I shall try not to dwell too much upon the grey side of my life.

Actually, this week has been a blessing. Things worked out beautifully. People offered help which was beyond our expectation. Those were the precious moments in the long period of research work.

So how do I think of the moments when I feel most alive? This is one question I was asked today.

Mostly grateful. No matter whether the moments were good or bad, I am grateful for what happened in my life. I feel truly blessed for the wonderful people I met and the great times I had. At the same time, I am glad that I survived the bad days and became wiser and stronger.

Sometimes things I appreciate are so trivial. Like each time I drive passing by Huron river through Huron Parkway, I would think how I love the view and the city. Pretty lame. But it's true.
