   Evening Sir,

   I’m in the Taoyuan international airport (the big main airport in Taiwan) and am about to depart on my new life. First stop I’m going back to Canada. Unfortunately my wife insists that my children receive a rigorous classical (Taiwanese) education so they will stay in Taiwan until late Spring 2024. Before heading to the new world.
   Orders from my wife ( come on it happens, we are equals she’s earned it)
   I am supposed to…
   – find a job which will qualify my wife for eligibility to become Canadian– she insists, please just drop that shit.
   – chill out and just do what I do.
   – Think about future prospects for our kids.
   -make enough money to survive, by myself own only… but I need more to support a family ( kind of)

   Becoming Canadian is a long process now and certain requirements on my part blah blah blah…

   – Anyway it’s going to be a new life for me. I’m 44 and need to start over. I could go back and be ok just ok,

   You know when I first met my wife her parents demanded that we get the appraisal of an esteemed Chinese fortune teller, and everything he said has proved painfully correct about me. His lucky reading of destiny ( back in 2006, we got married– been together since 2004)…. this was.
   – I’m a good teacher. (That’s it I am. Been told that since I was a teen. I hate teaching though)
   -I’m good at learning skills with a weapon ( this could be used as some trade type skills like a barber, musician, or dexterous item that takes practice with the hands,) as a professional piper I know I could have been the best, so I see the wisdom there. I had a chance to make it big in the music industry. I’m not like big bear though, I have taste. When Offered the ticket I refused at level one, not at level child abuse… Though I was married already when the ticket was presented so I got spiritual protection). Anyway that isn’t really your thing and my music level should be higher but it is still pretty good. but yeah weapon.
   – My name is cursed and easy to criticize. I shouldn’t be the boss or be known to regular people in terms of ideas and recognition. I’m too easy to criticize and easily taken down, I need protection.
   – I’m an excellent advisor, I don’t know I just do it naturally.– but I often make mistakes.
   -My boss will never like me, no matter how hard I work or how hard I try.—- but it doesn’t matter cause I always earn my money, though usually make less than I am worth. But money will always flow into my life– and I need to chill the fuck out but I can’t.
   – in my adult life it will be difficult to make friends, I can– maybe but unlikely.
   – (in Asia) people will think I’m unstable but actually I will be very stable.
   -In your youth and formative years you should stay in Taiwan. Then after middle age return to the West. The fortune teller asked me where I was from I showed him, Canada, He told me Europe or East Coast America would be better but all ok.
   – Then he asked if I had Brothers or sisters.– I showed him a picture of my brother, He told me, people are fooled by you guys– you are actually smarter than he. (He is dead)

   This stuff has proved correct time and time again. So have you.

   Anyway I’m moving back to Canada and I never know if I’ll see Asian again.

   I really want to be just some guy who admires the beauty of Asia ( Of course I mean girls) or just some twit walking around the forests of my hometown- brooding on stupid pride filled fantasies…. Anyway we stay in touch. I’m going to start doing martial arts and probably some mountaineering classes if I can cause they mat have worth… or feel free to add recommendation.

   Don’t email me for awhile. Everything is haywire until I get settled back in Canada. I’ll send you something when the time.

   Sorry If I pissed you off, though not sure sure if I did– children take patience.

   P.S. probably not a good idea to post on blog just write a word like “wit” or” trow” if understood. BTW cloud of unknowing awesome book for me— I felt that one painfully hard. I’ll read again too.

   Love you
