proverb






An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet regardless of time, place, or circumstance. The red thread may stretch or tangle, but will never break. --Chinese proverb

Impossible to explain

Walking around Shamien Island this morning, we visited the White Swan Hotel, the place we stayed when here to get Neela.  She wanted to see the hotel.   We also took a walk through the Qing ping market (herbal medicine ingredients)  as it was another thing we wanted to show Neela from our previous trip. 

HanRui didn't get why we had to go there. Lee explained how we had been there when Neela was little and wanted to show her where we had been.   This led to the heart breaking question of why Neela got to go to America when she was a baby but she had to wait until now.   There is no way to explain that in a satisfactory way, even if you have a common language to communicate with.
