Why do you feel the need to own it?
You never know when the gears of fortune begin to turn. It's unseen, intangible, yet at certain moments, you can almost hear the soft click as everything falls into place. Have you seen the person who walked away unscathed from a car crash? They simply dusted themselves off, while the prayer beads that had accompanied them for years lay shattered on the ground. Have you seen the new "Money Tree" on a coworker's desk? Since its arrival, it was as if they had been put on fast-forward—proposals approved one after another, opportunities arriving in steady succession. Walk into any longstanding Chinese guildhall or association, and your gaze will inevitably be drawn upward. There, enshrined in the place of highest honor, sits a solemn statue of Lord Guan. Incense smoke curls ceaselessly, a quiet guardian watching over peace and order.
