And for trading, too many times I've wanted quit after a string of conviction sapping cut-losses...<br /><br />I too had to walk away. And returned ;)<br /><br /> <br />Even though I am doing not too bad now, I'm glad I had experienced capitulation. <br /><br />It keeps me grounded and avoid being too complacent. <br /><br />It's a craft; not tikam tikam.Singapore Man of Leisurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13774067113884418001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897513886211197509.post-79092888578804082752016-07-20T09:05:26.278+08:002016-07-20T09:05:26.278+08:00Hi Patty, looks like we enjoyed the same kind of s...Hi Patty, looks like we enjoyed the same kind of shows.

It was 2005/6 and one of my army friends asked me to open a brokerage account with him. And so I went. I started trading warrants but he didn't. I guessed he felt the rain was too heavy and didn't ran through. On hindsight, I'll never do it again, but that was a time different from now. Back then, I didn't know what it was like to just soak it all in. I got the thrill of getting my shoes wet...wasn't very glamorous, but I will remember it for life.<br /><br />Maybe it doesn't make me money, but hey, it was a hell of an experience. I was soaking wet and I learnt something about myself. I'm more water proof that I thought I was.<br /><br />I think it's the foolish things that we've done in the past that is the most memorable. Maybe with a kid, I'll be running through the rain a lot more often, esp after this video. <br /><br />Thanks for the vid :)la papillionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01372278083694506953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897513886211197509.post-70310735957594535922016-07-17T19:11:33.760+08:002016-07-17T19:11:33.760+08:00Ah....

My umbrella is in my car but I told myself how good it is to walk through the rain, walk through the basketball court in the rain.<br /><br />Of course, I didn't get soak. Nice ... <br /><br />The whole idea about walking through the rain is not raining through it but walking slowly and enjoying the fall of waters in the face...<br /><br />The gentle breeze that bring you back to yesteryears ...
