One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1/On an early morning train, which was following the coast of the Taw estuary, I awakened and looked out of the window and saw a swan about a metre above the river keeping pace with the train .

2/I was having a strange dream when I awoke to find wetness between my legs. After ruling out the most likely causes, I lifted the bedclothes to find my cat, who had just given birth to her first kitten

What I Can Share with Hosts

Laotse once said:
If you want to be happy for a day, drink some rice wine.
If you want to be happy for a month, take a lover.
If you want to be happy for a year, get married.
If you want to be happy for the rest of your life:
Become a Gardener.
