Whenever we feel cosy, remember it and move on. Whenever we get absorbed, remember nothing lasts. Whenever we feel super happy, remember death. Whenever we feel super depressed, remember life.

I went to the fish store looking for some small parrot fishes/goldfishes. Then a 22 inch golden Koi caught my eye among many Kois. He is very friendly, he comes to the surface to ‘greet’ you while the others stay away. He somersaults in the water, plays and very gentle. I fell in love...
