Dimsum conversation

After doing all the Christmas food, there is something comforting about sitting down to a lunch of dim sum with friends.

Feeling their excitement as they flesh out plans of their new project in a new place. It is a hare-brained idea, and an oft-traveled road to frustration and heartbreaks. But it is futile to point out the flaws.

And so, keeping my own council, I let them happily paint their perfect picture for me.

I want to remember happy optimistic moments with friends in these last days of the year.

we don't want to dampen people who are all too excited with new plans eh? not that they will listen anyway. and who knows, the ideas might just take off, and we better not be the old grinch. :P

People must be allowed to pursue their dreams. Whether or not it succeeds, at least no regrets, right? There are too many doomsayers around as it is.

wildgoose - that's how i feel. besides, this project will just disappoint in the worst case scenario, not devastate.
