Thinking about traveling to Hong Kong this year? Maybe you have already been to Hong Kong and have seen all the main attractions. Just when you think that you have seen it all — there comes something new and exciting from around the corner. Hong Kong has a great attraction that is popular among the mainland Chinese visitors. The Hong Kong government teamed up with the Bruce Lee Foundation to put together an exhibition to bring in tourists.
The exhibition has more than items on display, including photos, costumes, and videos. Close to 50 million people visit Hong Kong every year and many of them will make their way to the Kowloon side of the Harbor to visit the Bruce Lee statue. If you want to do this, try to make it before the sun sets, as you can get the best pictures of the harbor in the background and still make it back to Tsim Tsa Tsui for the Guinness World record-holding sound and light show.
Many of these visitors are Christians who are fascinated with the martial arts movies of Bruce Lee. Bruce Lee was not known to be a Christian, however, as Christians we should look at things around the world that are cultural influences that can help us share with those who have no connection to the teachings of Christ. The museum of Bruce Lee can be enjoyed on a personal level. If you happen to travel to Hong Kong to see the Bruce Lee statue, you are more than likely to be surrounded by Chinese from the mainland.
Try engaging them about Bruce Lee if they understand English. You might be surprised to learn that many of them will be excited to talk to you.
If you come across people that are fascinated with Bruce Lee, why not use that as a centerpiece to make new friends. Use some of the things that Bruce Lee has said to build a new relationship and introduce someone to Christ. When asked by journalist Alex Ben Block in the summer of what his religious affiliation was, Lee answered: 'None whatsoever.
Block then pressed him further, asking him if he then believed in God: 'To be perfectly frank, I really do not. The submitter, Brad, comments Lee's responses to these questions are perfectly understandable given the depth and nature of his philosophy.
So, when they marry, and their lives are reduced to calmness and dullness, they will feel impatient and will drink the bitter cup of a sad marriage.
In order to build a healthy relationship, two partners need to spend intimate time together. Some people might have the impression that Bruce Lee was a cocky person who was showing off his martial art skills solely in an effort to boost his ego by attracting the attention of others on him.
This, however, is far from the truth. In reality, as Bruce explains in the following video, martial arts was first and foremost his way of expressing himself:. One of the most well-known Bruce Lee quotes is:. That is why where some have a self, a starting point, most people have a void. According to Bruce, to follow your inner voice and honestly express yourself is a prerequisite for self-discovery and personal growth.
We have great work ahead of us, and it needs devotion and much, much energy. To grow, to discover, we need involvement, which is something I experience every day — sometimes good, sometimes frustrating. No matter what, you must let your inner light guide you out of the darkness. Bruce Lee saw life as an ongoing journey to wisdom: Through our everyday experiences, we get to better understand who we are and the world we live in, thus maturing as human beings. However, this journey is filled with obstacles, and making mistakes is a necessary part of learning how to overcome them.
In fact, making mistakes can help us to become better problem-solvers and decision-takers. Yet, to learn from our mistakes we first need to be honest enough to admit them, as well as to make sure not to repeat them. As Lee said:. Wisdom is a never-ending process. Bruce Lee noted:. There is instead an ever-evolving process of maturing.
Because when there is a maturity, there is a conclusion and a cessation. You might be deteriorating physically in the long process of aging, but your personal process of daily discovery is ongoing.
