God of Prosperity (2) - Chinese New Year Series (9)



At a Chinese New Year lunch today, we had a sighting of the God of Prosperity! Yup, yup, the one that will offer one oranges and hong bao (red packets) and that will bring you good fortune in the new year! Many elderly Chinese people takes the offering from the God of Prosperity seriously as they truly believe that good fortunes and blessings would roll into their lives when they receive the offerings.


I have posted another God of Prosperity photo in an earlier
posting.

Nice photo of God of Fortune. May the God of Fortune bless you with lots of good fortune.

"Use your first smile, your first form of generosity, of love, of kindness—use it at home; start at home. And if there is something left over—if … your plate is just full of abundance of patience and goodness and smiles and joy, then by all means, you should go … and offer that to others. But we must begin at home." by Dr Robin Smith
