Update...this is about changes. It just struck me just now over dinner when i was talking with my family and heard that my late grandma's apartment in Chinatown is going to be sold. Combined with my going downtown with Sam last weekend...wollte nur einige Dinge sagen, die mir plötzlich aufgefallen sind...
It's mainly about change. I will miss that little apartment where i grew up. Where my grandmother taught me the ways of the world and i benefited in every way from her kindness and love. Chinatown has changed since i was a little 7-year-old boy who began staying at my grandma's. When i went down last weekend, half of a street linking New Bridge and South Bridge roads was blocked off to form a food street (as most of you know by now.) So much development has changed the face of the place...so many tourists and everything...
But it was also amazing how it seemed almost not to have changed before my eyes. For Sam, she hasn't been there like always so she couldn't understand it. But i still go for breakfast there at this little shop which sells bee hoon and porridge at 70 cents apiece with the friendly man and his mother - they've been at that very stall for 3 generations. Fed me poppa, too. I still remember the bakeries which turned out fresh mooncakes and pastries at a certain time and who gave you (slightly) preferential treatment if you spoke Cantonese.
It's just how a short visit back there can bring back such a sense of déjà vu where everything is different but strangely familiar. Die Zeit und die Umstände haben sich verändert, doch nicht der Geist...
