The original plan to fly to Taiwan on July 20 is postponed 1-week to July 27. I accidently hurt my lower back; it would be impossible to sit on a plane for 20 hours with an aching back.
Once again, I appreciate the impotance of good health. Our body is so intrically made; a malfunction of one part of our body means that we have to let go many life activities we have taken for granted such as biking, tennis, and of course travelling abroad. Last night, when I painfully laying on my back, I appreciate the difference between "illusion" and reality. Life is a gift; nothing is an entitlement.
This low-back-pain episode, once again stresses the importance of making the best of this trip: making contributions to Taiwan and Taiwanese which had invested 24 years on me and had yet seen my contributions to the home land. I probably would not have many opportunities, or any opportunity at all to contribute to Taiwan.
