my dear friends and family
since i last wrote to you on wed (?) i have got a very bad cold and had to stay in bed on thursday, that was the day when hong kong was struck by a typhoon, signal 8 and everything came to a standstill.
last night i coughed my lungs out and today i went out to get some cough medicine from a doctor but was told that it is out of stock, so i decided to use traditional method to cure myself and bought a bottle of garlic pills.
despite the obstacles i am facing and the cold i have, i must say that i feel very good, this morning when i sat on the couch in my home (its a small lovely home, quiet, bright and airy) in hong kong, i felt very peaceful and serene , i was thinking: there may be storms and rain outside, i still have a very nice home to shelter in, how fortunate!
after my first email, my son kevin called from sydney and was very concerned, my son in law, ben and a few friends also sent me emails offering help and said they will chant for me. this is very very consoling indeed and i thank everyone.
a few days ago, i chanted to the gohonzon with desperation, today i chanted with joy, gratitude and appreciation. Buddhism is about winning, and i am sure that with my chanting and faith in the gohonzon, there is nothing that cannot be solved and justice will be proved, this is the mystic law.
glad to share.
