Thank you for coming on the Christmas Eve!
We had a small version of Christmas party; many thanks to Christine, Sherry and Kris for bringing cakes, drinks, Oreo chocolates and some cookies from me.
This is the 4th part of our tetralogy on "Relationship" in YoYo recent meetings:
Stephen's "Loneliness" --> Holly's "Flirting" --> Morris' "To be/Not to be (single) --> Iris' "Why we will marry the wrong person" --> ???
We need an ending!
What I learned from the meeting:
1) Love is not just admiration for strength, it is also tolerance for weakness and recognition of ambivalence. -- Alain de Botton
2) Self-awareness is the precursor for communication. We can only convey what we know, if we don't know ourselves well, how can we communicate effectively?
3) Besides, with self-awareness, we can set boundaries more clearly and accurately.
4) Above are easier said than done! (For you, Luis!)
5) If nothing works, the last resort, try fate, believing it is your fate to marry such an idiot"! Then, you may be able to feel more peaceful!
6) Marriage is not just one (single) word. It is a sentence -- a life sentence!
(Thanks, Jimmy, for bringing it up! And Kat added, luckily, it's a just life sentence, not death penalty!!! )
Attendees (29):
Morris, Jimmy, Alice, Miller, Ryan, Gregory (newcomer), Tashi, Wen-han, Jerry, Julian, Leon, Shirley, Sherry, Sabrina, David, Jeff, Luis, Andy Liu, Anne, Christine, Tim Armantrout, Jason, Rosie, Liwen, Kat, Steve, Linda, Kris, Iris (host)
