Of Hungry Ghosts and Olympic Songs

on
It's that time of the year when Chinese ghosts walk the streets; yes, it's the month of the Hungry Ghosts. Chinese believe each year the ghosts in Hades will be let out from their prisons and prayers are often carried out to appease these wandering spirits. In Penang, Malaysia, a Chinese temple in Lebuhraya Jelutong had prepared something special for the earthquake and cyclone victims of Sichuan, China and Myanmar. They had burned two luxury condominium towers for them! How thoughtful and all these while, I was just thinking of posting some Olympic songs here while I take a break from blogging...! Hope you enjoy these songs...

Maybe they are luckier than we thought. Modern people don't have time for their children.
