  1. Happiness is not about being immortal nor having food or rights in one's hand. It's about having each tiny wish come true, or having something to eat when you are hungry or having someone's love when you need love.

  2. For Chinese people, New Year happy new year go to the elders, and bowed to the elders. Both traditions, is also a blessing in order to express their feelings. :-D

  3. Its the respect to the elders that is most heart warming to westerners who only hope that when they are elders they will receive the same respect they see in the East.
