Singapore Conference...

Sat I had went to a friend's seminar. It was in the noon. After I met my friends, we walked towards the building. At the traffic light, the funny thing happened. It suddenly rained without warning! We were attacked without warning so we ran across the traffic light and stay at the shelter. Suddenly the rain stopped. It is just like the lei gong (god of thunder) had a sneeze. Well... We went there wet like we are after jogging. This is quite a good talk they had. It also makes me realize that human can be poor but never sick. The hospital bills is like getting a house or expensive car... To be able to survive after the hospital stay and treatment or even operation. It is a bomb! Especially when you are old, now you can see that many old people will not die of old age but usually with a sickness or cancer. It is frightening that you will need help even to go to a toilet when you are old. I had went to the toilet and saw a middle age man trying hard to get his urine out... Then I heard he talked to another man. He said that, " when you are old, even urine can be a big problem and its hard to get out and is not a good feeling." I had saw a Korean documentary, which shows that it is possible to live up to 100+ with good health for some people which lives near some mountain. The old people there are very healthy and do not look like the old folks in our country. So it is still good to take care when possible.
