What Is More Fearful Than Fear Itself?

Answer: when it is something done in stupidity!

I only learnt yesterday that something awful had happened at my building during last weekend.
Last Saturday/Sunday my parents were woken up by a big 'thump' coming from our building one morning. and didn't think nothing of it. Only within the last two days had news emerged of what had really happened.....somebody in our building had tried to kill themselves! Apparently a new Philippino worker had been in HK only for about 3 days, when she just decided things didn't seem to work out for her so she decided then and there to commit the suicide and take the fall from the top of the building.

Luckily for her there is a food court below our street.....with plenty large canopies for the shops! One of them had managed to catch her fall, so she was left relatively unscathed save only with some serious bruising.........

Wow, that's like something you'd see in a movie. Where someone would jump off a roof or out a window only to be saved by a shop canopy below. I'm surprised she didn't fall through it instead.

A temporary sanctuary in a world of insanity! :)

Born and raised in England for most of my life, I came to live in Hong Kong with my HK-native family in 2006 to expand our family business, and start a new life in Asia. My background is in digital imaging from both material and creative aspects, and our family has been in the commercial creative printing business for well over 25 years. Our expertise in the field is so compelling that in 2006 with a European paper company we helped develop and launch our own groundbreaking photo inkjet paper called 'Da Vinci' which won the hearts of many artists over there. Apart from working with well-known people like the singer Robbie Williams, comedian Spike Milligan and even Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, my family has also worked in conjunction with firms like Epson and HP in London to promote the technology of environmentally friendly inkjet printing. AnD artist, printer and photographer Danny Chau is my father, and I welcome anyone who dares to become my friend!
