"My 65 Years compressed in 60 seconds!"
It's me - Andreas. I came to Hong Kong from Germany in August 2004 to join my Father, who lived here already many years. But sadly, he passed away 6 months later. Nevertheless, I was able to find a good job and a good girl, whom I married. Now (May 2024), I'm finally retired, after 65 years hard work, everyday! With this Website, I intend to reflect and document my daily life, my family, my religion and my hobbies. So, first of all, my hobbies are mainly computer, web-design and web-creation. In these, I spent most of my free time. My free time is the time left after supporting my family. (I believe housewives will know what I mean.) Actually, I've spoiled my family with providing all kinds of daily support.
Starting the day with preparing the breakfast, and then filling the washing machine with dirty clothes, and hanging them up afterwards. Next day (mostly in Summer, not so in Winter), take them down and fold them together. Once a week some of those clothes needed to be ironed. Luckily, The child has grown up and graduated from secondary and doesn't need uniform anymore. So, the ironing got less work now. But my "work" continues with stocking up (shopping) the daily supplies. Forgetting or overlooking something would mean long faces around the whole day or even several days. My both girls (wife & daughter) have hair loss problems, means the white marble floor is full with hair. And that means daily cleaning (Sweeping or vacuuming)! Or at least every second day.
So, now I will tell you what my initial idea was after retiring: My life would be super busy with hiking and exploring campsites and other wonderful places in Hong Kong. I love nature and I like to walk/hike and camp. I need to be in movement. So, I created this project. The topics would be walking/hiking/camping, and the equipment I'm using for these projects. I hoped this would work out for me. I've already invested a lot of money buying equipment that I wanted to use and create shorts in YouTube.
But God had other plans with me. I still do not know his plans. All of a sudden, my body literally died. I had muscle-wasting to 80%, absolute no strength anymore. Pain in arms and shoulders, so that I couldn't sleep properly. My legs were useless - no power/strength. Looks like walking drunken! Problems even getting up from a chair or toilet-bowl is now difficult. I've tried once to defy God, und went for a hike. I collapsed, fell twice and hurt myself so badly, that I had pain for the next 3 weeks. My legs were shaky, and I felt dizzy. This was a lesson to learn - "Do not go against what the Lord has chosen for you!" Now I've accepted it and will stay at home, although my wife chases me to go out for exercises. The truth is that I have Diabetes since 2015, and it seems to get worst with every day. I'll wait for what Jesus has planned for me.
Please comment and give some ideas, suggestions and/or directions. I'm new in this environment and will need help at the beginning. You'll find my email right here below.
