• Pacific Coffee

  Sitting at Pacific Coffee in Causeway Bay, I saw a familiar dark blue plaid pattern on the sleeves of her school jacket.  My attention immediately moved to the girl who looks miserable doing homework next to a filipino who was carrying her tennis rackets.  Little girl, what's wrong?  What do you want?  How can I help you?

  Next to me, two middle-aged women were talking about similar topics relating to marital issues, mother-daughter relationship, selfishness / smartness, getting money in that fake classy-accented cantonese.. Despite how much the world has changed, somethings never change.  Not in my life-time.  This part of world needs some humanity.
