A Piece of Thought From Chinese New Year Gathering

The rooster come knocking at the door.

All the animals has gathered and prepared the feast specially for the rooster, why? Because it is the rooster year and, this means all the animals will have to face the ups and downs given from the rooster, in short play by the rooster's rules.

"Here he comes" said the dragon.

"The food is enough right? If it's not, I have more in the kitchen" asked the rabbit to none.

"It's enough, can we just wait first before deciding whether to add the food or not" said the sheep to the rabbit in a calm yet feverish tone.

And the rooster opened the door, and everyone clap their hands the moment the rooster entered.

The rooster gives a calm face with a smile saying "Thank you guys, this is my year, let's enjoy it to the fullest". Said the rooster proudly.

On Chinese New Year eve, I had those scene playing in my mind while having dinner with my family from my mother's side. I imagined the rooster to be a little arrogant in personality but smart and have a vision on the future.

As I ate the fried chicken on my bowl, I began thinking about all of this food and people that celebrate the Chinese New Year Eve with a smile on their face, hiding their true feelings and just enjoy the moment.

Why I think like that? Because everyone gathered here to achieve that one goal and it is too be happy and to keep other family member out of worry.

The year of the monkey had given lots of unexpected events and circumstances that was totally out of control that only God can control. So the rooster year, since it started with a smile, hoping this smile lasts and truly become a smile from the heart and mind.
