my chinese men

one is older, and might get down from time to time
tension builds up on the shoulders and necks, sometimes it goes down to the rest of the back

my wonderful remedy are two chinese

one is rodney yee, my yoga teacher via dvd, whom i see when i get the discipline
he is of chinese origin and is a good yoga teacher with a peculiar taste for class outfits, preferencing the tight speedos/hot/ cyclist pants, who rumours have it that took a lover and left wife and children although i have never actually checked it

the other one is a dr in the capital, the one that gives me pain killing massages and entertains me on equal measure for a silly low price
he has been here 8! years, away from wife and only child, a 17 year old daughter who is independent, single minded and has absolute power over his dad
he does recognise this to be the case and he was horrified by her idea of becoming a constructor!he reckons girls should do medicine or 'softer' things, he is surprised but will support her, whatever her choice may be, bless him
he asks me ''do you understand her?" "of course! if she is clear what she wants to do, let her run with it!" i respond, "i knew you would, in fact, i want her to be like you", he says

and all of a sudden i don't feel older nor down

Es una bonita historia que además dice cómo te ven los demás, qué energía ven en ti que no crees poseer pero que los demás ven.
