Logan and I were presented with an opportunity to attend the Ging Wu Chinese New Years banquet on Saturday night. This opportunity came to us in the form of a gift of two tickets, given to us by Sifu Csillag. Thank you, Sifu for this wonderful Act of Kindness! We had an amazing time. The performances were inspiring to watch, the food was great and the company was perfect. We had a great group of people from Silent River at our table. Great conversation, and lots of laughs! In addition to the performances and food, we were lucky to have our very own tea leaf reader sitting at the table. Thank you Mrs. Csillag for your entertaining fortune telling. Who needs fortune cookies? Tea leaf reading is much more fun. And if that wasn't enough, we had a door prize winner at both of the tables which I understand hasn't happened in a very long time, if ever. Logan was also given a dragon by Sifu Brinker, which was made out of numerous little red packets, intricately folded and glued together. What an amazing souvenir of a perfect evening. Thank you!
When you are on the receiving end of an act of kindness, it really does help you to understand the importance those acts of kindness can have, and increases awareness and the desire to have a positive impact on others.
Thank you, and good fortune to all!
