11.5 million private documents were leaked and became known as The Panama Papers.
The papers detailed transactions and money laundering activities of many of the world's rich and powerful.
Today is
National Find a Rainbow Day (in the U.S.)
Rainbow is a rare scene, even in peaceful times.
One has to be lucky, kind, and with “the eyes of a beholder” to see a rainbow.
I don't remember having seen a rainbow in Shanghai.
Shanghai was too busy, noisy, and hasty.
It is now empty, quiet, and ghostly.
“I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life.” - God
Last night I dreamed of -
the Spring shower falling,
and the storms ceaseing.
The messenger of peace - a rainbow;
the west sky illuming;
people going by, talking and laughing.
All the brouhaha is gone,
all the dust-up is down.
What a beautiful Shanghai again -
modern, open, inclusive, welcoming,
unhurried, and sane.
- Fuolao
I wish every dream come true; I wish Shanghai good luck.
