以上節錄自多倫多的【明報】。這樣的天氣,真不想出門去教堂禮拜。如果有車的話,也不敢開。沒車的話,走在堆滿積雪的街道也挺難受的。原來白色的冬天不是浪漫。香港人喜歡白色冬天,因為那里沒有讓你很困惑的雪。

Heavy snow and a dark sky could be demoralising. However, it is also a good time to slow down a bit and reflect on our lives. Read the Bible, listen to some good music and if possible, make yourself a big bowl of hot soup. Just relax and enjoy some tranquil moments.

BTW, I have at last finished marking the exam papers. Last nite, Pun Pun said he wanted to talk to you over the web. Look forward to meeting you over the net!

PRIVATE

Sang has left for about a week without any message to the family. And as expected, his phone was off. I sent him an SMS yesterday, urging him to at least send back and SMS to let us know he was safe. He did, and said he would come back to Hong Kong last night.

I have not been able to contact him last night. Will try today.

BTW, uncle Yu (Kam Lung) has passed away peacefully. Dad is helping to arrange his funeral. Will see what I can do.

Also, Siu Kuen and I have invited Dad and Mom, Joseph, Heung and her family for a Christmas gospel dinner organised by my church on Christmas evening. Do pray for them.
