Henrick, he was sent away from his home country with his mother as a baby as not to cause a national scandal. They ended up in Jamaica. Imagine being a young, fair skinned boy, spending your early years surrounded by Rascals. By 13 in New Zealand, he had had enough and made his way on his own. In Japan, the Japanese family members have 100% rights over the children.
One former colleague, years ago, fell in love with a Japanese girl in Australia. They fell in love and got married, moving back to Japan, living with the inlaws. His wife was diagnosed with cancer in the last stages of her pregnancy. She lived a very short time after the birth. He wanted to take his child back to Australia. He was under 30 and hoped to once again find someone. Well, the grandparents petitioned the courts and were awarded full rights to the child. He returned to Australia, alone.
My friend is European and so am I. I carry 2 passports. Without understanding a lifestyle that most only see in movies, gifts are not always gifts. How do you think so many young girls end up in prostitution? Once the party is over, someone has to pay. The gift giver is making an investment in future income and in that type of world, individuals are disposable commodities.
The idea of,"If you can't beat 'em, join 'em", is not how one of integrity should concede. The time piece is a wonder piece of mechanical engineering. The person who now occupies my study is a human being and a good friend going through a difficult time. Does the former or latter hold greater value? There are 2 things in life, that cannot be bought, if indeed geniune; dignity and integrity.
Gifts do not build bonds, the bonds are already there, hence the gifts of genuine intention are presented as a token of something already in place. Currency is just that, always flowing and unrelaible. At least the watch goes in a box before we do.
