Reliance: The Windpower

So fast. Has been a yr. Second visit to the kite festival@promontory. Joined in the entanglement this time. Supposed to jus take some pics but ended up being in photos. So many photographers there capturing the moments. They are jus waiting there for the kite to go up! Amazing scene when all kites plunge at the time the wind stops blowing, and then the next moment, the airspace is filled with colours and all kinds of creatures, from the sea like octopus and fishes to others like penguins and cows; smiley faces and angry birds etc. The blue sky, white clouds, orange streaks of the setting sun behind the skyscraper form the backdrop. Below these flying creatures are a mesh of what looks like badly spinned spider webs. They do contribute to struggling kites but no one is irritated. Below the entangled strings, grace. Jus make it fly again. Good natured. Ok to step on kites unintentionally, ok for the photographers to block the paths, ok for the cut strings to go round the necks, ok for the kite to come plunging down on the head. All oks. The scene is set, unspoken grd rules.

This yr joined by ocha, took it for a good run, but it does have extremely high stamina. Ultra runner n hyper active. Am afraid that the leash will hurt its neck tho. Like to watch how it's affliated with its mistress. Even the roadside performers turn while i was running it. Cute creature. But i wonder why is sweat nice to lick and mud or rocks yummilicious?

Bought dinner to the barrage next. Ocha loves fries. Naturally cut with sea salt. Oh my, but mistress says the salt will make it drop hair so controlled intake. Wonderful breeze. But really need to start training night vision, will it get worse as one ages? Takes a little longer to adjust and realise what's in the dark.

Prior to today, recently caught up with old frens, 14 yrs later, we are still at ease with one another. 没有丝毫的生疏。special bond. facing somwhat similar issues in life, jaded by the surroundings and environment, the societal uni is different. All in to improve situations but they are beyond influence, 束手无策. Jus leave it as it is. Kiv for now n do it again when there's chance. Really no pt to do a 'bang head here' poster on the wall. Meanwhile enjoy as much as possible, wont be getting the same day back again.

Fun in discovering new places to dine; joining a night exercise; visiting seletar's new building; witnessing a colleague's princess reaching her first yr, with full concentration in her foothold, wondering how to put out the candle flame like what her bro had done it the first time; slurping ramen and beer; n watching kites relying on the moving air n the string attached. There is freedom of choice on what to focus.
