Philosophical insight into Me, Hong Kong and... Me

I feel complete in HK. I won't forever, and I can't stay here, but for now - I feel complete. I feel I've been living the Yin, the white part of my life in Canada, and now I am living the Yang, the, err, uh, black part of my life. Okay, so the analogy ain't perfect, but it's good, okay?

Fulfilment
There is much to fulfill me here in HK and it satisfies the cornerstones of my life: there is the politics, there is the Chinese culture fused with the Western influence, there is the value on hard-work and family values that I aspire and the adaption of technology that reflects my outlook on progress for all people. I find HK to be an external embodiment of myself, if you can somehow make sense of that. Chinese with western influence (maybe I'm the complement of this), with an adaptation of technology (you've seen me with my gadgets), with an internal political dynamic (I myself pride err, myself on my Commerce and Political Science degree), and that's about it. Hmm...maybe I'm making a mountain out of a molehill (sp?) here. I will reach out and wonder aloud here if this sentiment is common with those who have a connection with the surroundings of their roots. Geez, me having something in common with the land of my mother's birth - big surprise that I'd find something here in myself. Wow.

Get over it Doug. You're making me cry of boredom
Okay, okay.

If you want to write that hokey introspective mumbo-jumbo, go write cards for Hallmark.
Okay, fine, on with the show.
