MY ULTIMATE VACATION WOULD BE... taking care of my kids.
IT WOULD BE A DREAM COME TRUE IF... to be able to confirm what the afterlife is like. And for ICU to get a brand new Science Hall.

are like Old Man Sai's horses."
STORY BEHIND THE QUOTE: (Chinese folklore) Once upon a time, there was an old man named Sai who lived with his daughter near the mountains. One day he bought some horses, but not long after they ran away into the mountains. Sai was very saddened by this, until one day the horses came back with some horse friends! One day, Sai's daughter rode one of the horses, but she fell and broke her leg. Again, Sai was very disheartened. Meanwhile, the country was in a warring state and called upon all of its young people to fight. The wars ravaged on and soon all of the country's youth had died -- except for Sai's daughter, who was unable to fight due to her broken leg. For this, Sai was most grateful. MORAL OF THE STORY: There's a reason for everything.
