Nostalgia feeling comes more easily in rainy days like today, the rain outside is pouring and me sitting in my bed, escape from work for one day. Reading some book and don’t stare at the computer screen for today.

Holding my cushion and cotton cute toy, I feel I’m younger again, how cosy it feels. I bought most of my cotton toys in Yangzhou, China, where is famous for those furry toys, with price a lot lower than most places.

Cotton Teddy bear is a classic toy and a great decoration for some corner of your home, I even thought about raise a real teddy bear dog one day, but I don’t got time, it’s my birthday presents, one more thing for nostalgia.

Silver Screen – The Greatest Story Never Told

That’s the album I’m listening for a whole afternoon last sunday afternoon, when the sun is so fierce outside, while I’m enjoying such a joyful Indie Pop, holding my favarite cotton cushion, feeling very cozy and happy.

The song I like best is “Something to Prove” and “She Counts the Rain”, it makes my heart soft and warm.

Let me share the lyric with you: “something to prove”

Not very long ago we were born in a time of wildest elation
running in fields of green touching ecstasy with long fingers of candy
and place to place
this how we spent our days
hate to say goodbye good night I can’t stay
in secret places we’ll go hide and shut ourselves from all the world outside
I’ll hold you like a breath of air for centuries I’ve kept with gentle care
though we made plans for all our days to come until we both grow old
we’ll start our dreams again repeat the greatest story never told

I don’t want to realise none of this is
real but how can we wonder
when everything that’s near makes it
crystal clear
that we’re fooling ourselves
but in this place
we call our own you just may find
one last way you’ll try you’ll find you just might stay
in secret places we’ll go hide remove ourselves from all the world outside
I’ll hold you like a breath of air for centuries I’ve
kept with gentle care
though we made plans for all our days to come until we both grow old
we’ll start our dreams again repeat the greatest story never told

Even now, I was also attracted by some cute cotton toy in some street display window and wanna bring it home.

Everytime, when there is a popular cartoon movie that makes us happy, then the cotton toy made from the movie character will be so hot in the market.

Some of them becomes classic and the fond of them is never fading after time passes, like Dingdang Cat (多拉A 梦）.

Our childhood time is fading though times, we are feeling so tired in the adult world, filled with challege, intrigue against each other, life’s trouble…..

I have to say, life is hard.

But, no matter what happens, I still believe life is beautiful.
