New Pets for CNY



We have an old acquarium at home. It used to be the house of many fishes until my dad's treasure, Jing Lung Yu (not sure what it's called in English) died a few years ago. Dad really had a special bond with that fish. Every time fish saw (or sense?) dad, it would swim towards my dad's direction. I don't know if fish could see or feel but that was what I witnessed. There was really something special only the two friends undestood and felt.

After the passing of fish, dad was devastated and had the acquarium moved out from the living room to the car porch. Poor acquarium got abandonned just like that.... as if being blamed for the death of the fish....

Acquarium sat quietly at one corner until Mum decided to give new life meaning to it.

A few days ago, she bought some goldfish. Acquarium is still sitting at the car porch but it seems much happier than before! Goldfish must have sensed its happiness for they are also happily swimming around in the acquarium...

It really makes my day too to see bright coloured fish everytime I walk to/from my car.....

Mum's creation
