My glider(named "Xiaomi") passed away today on 5/23/2008 for unknown reasons... a heart wrenching moment for me as he laid lifeless on on my palm... i buried Xiaomi with candlelight vigil in my flower garden on 阳明 mountain.

I raised Xiaomi from the time he was just a baby fur ball... he was a spoiled brat at times, but always playfully active in an adorable way... if there was a spot he wanted to explore but couldn't, he would insist on going back eventually to satisfy his curiosity... the little fella was always in a competitive mood to play "who's quicker?" with me by wrestling with my fingers... also, he had an affinity for jumping and climbing onto my shoulders as his high lookout post.

Xiaomi was my loyal and affectionate friend for nearly two years... he brought me unconditional friendship, love, and happiness.

The night before Xiaomi left me, he was jumping on my shoulder and napping inside the hood of my sweatshirt... as usual, he tried to snuggle against my palm, signaling me to hold him against my stomach with one hand while gently massaging him with the other... he would stare blankly at me with his big round eyes as I embraced him... his eyelids slowly closed in the most peaceful way, completely entrusting himself to me as he transcended into his own utopian dream...

that was my final and everlasting memory of being with Xiaomi while he was still alive... my beloved friend will be sorely missed...
