上年這段時候到過日本觀摩Toyota Production System(TPS)，親歷Toyota在其Tsuzumi (Assembly) Plant展示其盛名的TPS。今天有幸能attend曾在Taiichi Ohno親身指導下領悟真正TPS的Hitoshi Yamada的TPS研討會，學到他怎樣學以致用及他從TPS引申的“活人”和“活空間”理論。
Yamada-san 其實只是從原有的概念走出一小步，多想多試多做，這樣的一小步就令他獲得畢生受用的智慧。而我，沒有他的才幹，未能參透活用TPS的哲理，但上了他的這一課，我也有所得著，走出了一小步。
真希望一小步一小步最終能走出黑暗。

紀念
上次掉失了想找回一模一樣的，豈料沒貨只好另擇相似。時移世易，今天碰巧讓我遇見，雖然意義不再，但沒多想，拿了過柜台，訂了副與當時一模一樣的，始終，總有無可代替的，就算已今非昔比，但情意猶存。
慨嘆．苦笑．自作孽無可怨...
對不起...

Day of Change
Mummy just finished her second stage of treatment; the third stage will commence in two weeks. Before the Doctor left for the day, he asked about our plan on how we were going to celebrate for Mummy for completing her second stage. Ya... Mummy is recovering and doing well, and just another step her footprint will finally mark on the land of Eternal Victory.
I am not a political guy but I must say today signifies a change of the world by Barack Obama. US today is no longer the US of yesterday. Change has occurred and US has proved to the world that she is the Land of Fairness and Possibility. Under the current circumstances his new government will be put under and forced to react splendidly on the challenges that would not be solved out easily, even with the aids from gigantic forces overseas. The tsunami by financial crisis spread through not only within US, but has extended to the whole world echoing back and forth, snowballing making more severe damages countries by countries. Even though I am just a small potato I am and believe will be acutely impacted by this terrible tide. Hopefully his vision and policy will not only stop it but help to recover the global economy into a reasonable shape. His plan on defense and military might also ease the lives of many around the world, directly and indirectly promoting peace all over the 7 continents. I hope happiness can finally be restored to all the innocent souls of us.
Today also marks another page of my life. It has been years and it is hard and painful for me to make up my mind. Complaints, quarrels and even fights did not stop me, but this time, I have to give in and do it. Tears shed, both on my face and in my heart. All I can say I treasure and “miss” everything I had. And I hope my decision can turn out in good turn, even it is a sudden one. May my life will change positively, although I am rather pessimistic on that.
