New year eve of 2014

I'm so excited today because the great challenge to India is tomorrow. Can you believe I'm bringing a three year old alone to India? With companion of a Indian speaking friend of course. Without her support and encouragement, I would probably never be there myself, not to mention with a child.

The process of getting India visa was full of obstacles. I visited shanghai visa office thrice and HK office twice. Finally We got it. During the whole procedure I was in rather peaceful mood , because I have faith in its plan. I'd be there if I am supposed to. I almost believe I'm just the messenger and my child is the one needs to be there to be blessed by HH 17th Karmapa.

I just simply believe the trip will run smoothly. There must be a reason for this fortunate child to travel so much. She will have broader vision of the world and so much love to give. Even though people always say it's a waste if money to bring kids to travel because they won't remember it when older. Deeply inside I believe, every trips or even any incidents to the child will stimulate a child's mind or brain somehow. Any trips is worth it and no one can buy the precious memories we created together.

In Buddha's blessing,
