A salute to them

Chingay starts!!!!

Before and after, hehe

Nah.. Its the once-a-year grand affair - The Goddess of Mercy's birthday celebration. Its the busiest month for my family every year. Why? Most would ask. Because i have a really special family - where we have 3 mediums (not included a few more from my extended family). My younger brother, brother in-law and, mama!

Sometimes people are skeptical about this, and it may even seem unorthodox to some. But for this post I just wanna dedicate a post to salute my respect for them. The sacrifices they made, the hours they put in just for this 1 week.
Mama has been a medium for about 20 years. Her very small 'sintua' grew to the really reputable one it is today, with thousands of devotees. She always got my respect - a strong woman who can strike a balance at work, family and the 'sintua'. She is my role model.

Felt bad when i can't do much to help whenever the occasion is around the corner.. But well, I just hope my presence and the drinks i bought today helped made their day.

P.S: Mom made me realised -If i were just a normal kid like anybody else, i would have missed out the interesting stuff that others never got to experienced. She's getting on in years - hope she can pass the baton to Zhixiong soon so she can relax more. Didi - you hear me? Keke.
