Happy 2009 my dear friends!!! How did you spend your first day of 2009? I went out to meet a new friend who is introduced by another friend. She is a nice girl and we talked a lot after meet.  Also we joined the so crowded shopping “troops” to see what we could buy. And in front of the gate of the shopping mall I saw some beggars and I really dont know they are really the poor or some “professional” beggars. And they all look health and young enough to work to earn their living. But they choose to beg for their life.
