Yiruma's "Maybe"

This is a very uplifting music from Yiruma.  As always, his music moves me.  I guess words are not enough to describe how wonderful it is.  You need to listen...and feel it in you.  It's like looking at a a beautiful painting and seeing more than what the eyes tell you.  So I won't say much anymore except that I am again amazed and truly inspired because this music makes me think about the beauty of life.  So, I hope you will enjoy this as much as I did. ...

Goofy Me

At Tai ji class,we're all into preparations for our upcoming presentation on the 27th.  It's a yearly affair where all the martial arts students converge and perform.  The last two Thursdays, I've sort of been the center of distraction hahaha!  My partner has not been around and we're at the center of the formation.  So, to resolve the problem and since we're still learning the new moves, my partner is our Lao Shi (teacher / coach).  Indeed, sometimes I am fumbling to learn the moves and a bit of pressure in there as coach keeps correcting my moves and a lot of times, I simply goof off.  I know that because I would...
