Thrills and Obstacles

Northern California provides a unique environment that has a mix of liberal, technology innovation, sunshine, clean air, and multi-cultures. Indeed, I like this place. For those who catch up with a comparable learning speed, the environmental crush in all aspects seems to forge well-rounded qualities of life. No wonder so many startups have been formed in or relocated to the Bay Area that bring in innovations and new opportunities. No wonder many are moving out of the Bay Area presumably because economic burden and competition are getting fierce. Changes are happening so fast. Federal reports suggest that more Asians have moved into cities such as Fremont, Cupertino, San Leandro, Hayward -- the inflow and outflow should determine the future populations as well as living styles. What should never change are the sunshine, the truth, and the spiritual desire.


I attended a conference of "OnMobile" (web link: OnMobile-2011) in Redwood City on June 14 and June 15. The debates and discussions in two days revealed that mobility and online social links will become more powerful. Mobile software sectors have attracted investors more than any others, with 75% of total venture investment nationwide -- mostly landed in Northern California. Social media and mobile apps are the key to driving the mobile platform development, where certain people may not be able to adapt themselves to new working models and use of the emerging interactive tools. It is, then, a great opportunity for those who are learning and growing, while many minds are ensnared by increased obstacles.


The religious faith and practice become mandatory as well as singular in hopes of getting balance and
fulfillment. Therefore, the constant renewal and seasonal revival on the faithful mind expands our breadth and thrills our life.


"His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. " (2 Peter 1:3)
