LumDimSaying: Happiness

“Happiness is not a destination, it’s a journey.

Happiness is not tomorrow, it is now.

Happiness is not a dependency, it is a decision.

Happiness is what you are, not what you have.”

- Author Unknown

May we all be choose happiness in every waking moment of our lives.

Thank you to Asupa Motuapuaka for introducing me to these words of wisdom.

LumDimSaying: by John O’Donoghue

“May I have the courage today

To live the life that I would love,

To postpone my dream no longer

But do at last what I came here for

And waste my heart on fear no more.”

Thank you to Jake Logsdon to introducing me to these words of wisdom.

Cherie Blair @ The Bookworm

Recently, there have been some incredibly big British celebrities speaking at little venues around Beijing.

I was absolutely dumbfounded when I found out that Patrick Stewart (aka Jean-Luc Picard of the Star Trek Enterprise & Professor Charles Xavier of X-Men) spoke at The Central Academy of Drama in Nanluoguxiang last Thursday night.  Click here for my favorite video of Patrick Stewart EVER. Even if you’re not a Trekkie or X-Men fan, this brilliant video is reason enough to have gone to see this man speak.

…and this week, Cherie Blair, wife of former Prime Minister Tony Blair will be at The Bookworm this Wednesday, July 28 to speak on her memoir “Speaking for Myself”.

“Mrs. Blair is a leading barrister specializing in public law, human rights, employment and European Community law. As well as fighting for human rights in her professional career, Mrs. Blair is an active campaigner on equality and human rights issues. She has spoken across the world on both issues and also on the need for improved work/life balance for both women and men.”

Beijingers, take advantage of these surprisingly golden opportunities while you can.  (I think we can all agree that this would never be so accessible in the US or Europe.)

Event Details:

• Date: Wednesday, July 28
• Time: 7:30-8:30PM
• Location: The Bookworm
• Tickets: RMB 100 (RMB 80 for Bookworm Members)
• Address: Sanlitun Nanjie, 三里屯南街4号楼; Tel: 6586-9507
