Live by this FOMO
Aren’t you tired of always caring what ‘they’ will think? Why must you do what you see others doing?
Living by FOMO will always end in regret.
FOMO can be “fear of missing out”, but it could also be “fear of majority’s opinions”.
Either way, the word “fear” is still there. Are you going to keep being controlled by the fear of man’s opinions?
“The fear of man proves to be a snare, but whoever puts his trust in Yahweh is kept safe.” (Proverbs 29:25 WEB)
It is better to be full of God’s love. His love in your heart will cast out all fear. When you are conscious of His love, it is easy to trust Him and be led by the Spirit.
“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Even as it is written, “For your sake we are killed all day long. We were accounted as sheep for the slaughter.” No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from God’s love, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 8:35-39 WEB)
The passage above contains some of the most beautiful sentences ever written.
You don’t need people to shower you with their untrustworthy, empty, and fluctuating love.
The only love you need is the love of Christ (God’s love) to be your stabilizing anchor in life.
When faced with even tremendous pressure, take a moment to re-enter peace, pray, and seek God’s counsel and wisdom before making any decisions. Trust Him—not others, and not even your own mind. God’s opinion is the most valuable.
The FOMO I choose is “faith over man’s opinion”!

眾籌支付誹謗案相關費用
還原721襲擊真相
Crowdfunding Campaign for paying fees in the defamation case
Restore the truth of 721 Yuen Long Attack
2019年7月21日,相信不少人對當晚元朗所發生的事仍舊歷歷在目,亦改變了不少人的一生。我在當晚於手機、電視目擊住於元朗發生的一切,因而決定挺身而出,再次躺進這趟政治渾水,參與區議會選舉,為掃除建制惡勢力出一分力。然而,即使當上區議員,政治打壓令我們工作舉步為艱,我亦在近日收到昔日選舉對手的誹謗案入稟狀。
在此艱困的狀態下,我沒有退讓的空間,只能選擇迎難而上,將事實在法庭當中陳述。我會善用法庭審訊的機會,將有關721事件的真相在法庭審訊羅列出來,將其作為事實核證的一大平台。我亦會把握機會在傳召證人和盤問過程,將721事件的種種疑團,包括事前流傳的信息真確性、白衣暴徒的關係網、政商關係網絡於審訊中一一揭露,真相愈辯愈明。
作為獨立民主派,我並無任何組織支持,亦沒有昔日選舉對手的龐大財政資源。由於法律援助並不涵蓋誹謗案件,我需要一力承擔有關法律經費(包括聘請律師與大律師的費用、法庭相關費用等)。在面對沉重的財政壓力下,我需要向大家籌募訴訟的經費,以應付相關的開支,懇請大家能夠鼎力支持。我將會利用籌募到的款項,用作法律費用和眾籌平台開支之外,同時亦會聘請一名員工專責搜集721證據及重溫不同媒體片段,以助法庭審訊和其他721事件民間調查工作。
假如我最後獲賠訟費或有盈餘,我會將有關餘額和盈餘撥捐予抗爭者支援組織。
A lot of us still relive what happened in Yuen Long on July 21, 2019, as it changed the lives of countless. After witnessing what happened there that evening via live streams on my phone and television, I chose to step forward and, again, devote myself to the political orbit. I thus participated in the district council election and committed to the eradication of the pro-establishment evil forces in the legislature. However, political repression still exists in the district council and hurdles our work - I just received the summons of the defamation suit filed by my former opponent in the election.
My only way out in this time of adversity is to present the facts in court, where I can make use of the court trial as a fact verification platform to state the truth of July 21. I will also seize the opportunity in the process of subpoena and testimony to expose the qualms of July 21, including the authenticity of the information circulated beforehand, the network of the white-shirted thugs, and the complex business-government relationships.
As an independent democrat, I do not have any organizational support, nor do I have vast financial resources as my late opponent does. Besides, since the legal aid scheme does not cover defamation cases, I must pay the legal expenses, including the cost of hiring lawyers and barristers and court fees, on my own. In the face of tremendous financial pressure, I must plead for help by raising funds for litigation from you to meet the legal expenses. I will use the funds for the legal services required and hiring an agent to collect evidence and review media clips of July 21 to help court trials and other private investigations concerning the incident.
If there is a surplus in the final reimbursement of litigation costs, I will donate the remaining balance to the organisation or fund supporting activists.
眾籌目標:80萬
分配如下:
律師及大律師聘請費用:50萬
眾籌平台費用:約5萬
聘請1名員工跟進721檔案:25萬
我將會每3個月發佈財政報告,說明有關開支的使用情況。
Crowdfunding Target: HKD 800,000
Distribution:
Solicitor and Counsel Fee: HKD 500,000
Crowdfunding Platform Fee: Around HKD 50,000
Employ a staff to follow the documentaries and records on 721 attack: HKD 250,000
I will announce the financial report of this fundraising project every three months to explain the expenditure of the funding.

2020 Copenhagen Democracy Summit
Fighting for Democracy – From the Battlegrounds of Hong Kong
Joshua Wong
18 June 2020
Thank you so much for inviting me to speak, Ryan. I say this knowing I might not have the chance to do so again in the future, and this is not an exaggeration. Many of you still recall the scene when millions of Hong Kongers took to the street last year. We opposed the extradition arrangements that would’ve essentially allowed legalized kidnapping: Hong Kongers found guilty of breaking Chinese law could be sent to stand trial in a Chinese court. The authorities eventually withdrew the bill under tremendous pressure, but they also responded our demand to full democracy with oppressive policing forces. The number of arrested protested since last summer is already more than the number of prisoners in Hong Kong right now. More than thousands were arrested and charged with rioting. Many more injured or even went missing.
New Crackdown
This prolonged struggle with the Chinese Communist Party for years now. The Umbrella Movement broke out in 2014 demanding that Beijing lived up to its promises of democracy. But rather than doing so in honour of the Sino-British Joint Declaration of 1984, Xi Jinping’s crackdown on our autonomy has only intensified over time.
What Xi Jinping learnt from Hong Kong’s democratic movement last year is to become more draconic and oppressive. It would be best to have me sent across the border to stand trial directly than to engage in dynamic diplomatic talks and negotiation. Therefore, precisely one year afterwards, when I am attending this summit, Beijing's legislature, the NPCSC, at the same time holds meetings, finalizing a sweeping national security law that targets democratic activists like myself.
Under the pretext of ‘national security’, this law purports to target acts of “collusion with foreign forces’’. Beijing did not define what is ‘’collusion’’, but it will wield massive discretionary power to punish activists and electoral candidates on the one hand, and cut off Hong Kong from the international society and their crucial support, on the other. Take this occasion as an example, I’m convinced that every word comes from my mouth today could well become proof of crime at the Chinese courtroom in the near future. Worse still, not only can democratic activists and legislators who have participated in international advocacy efforts be barred from running elections or even imprisoned, INGOs and other organizations, including their personnel and assets, can also be subject to legal persecution.
So the developments in Hong Kong have changed quite swiftly. Large-scale protests defying the communist government may no longer be an option. It could be my last testimony when I am still free, yet prosecuted and put behind bars under the sweeping security law. Our long march to democracy will be forced into a prolonged period of fierce crackdown, perhaps similar to what Poland experienced in the Communist era, with secret police agency stationed in the city.
The Wounds of Hong Kong are Proof of Defying Beijing’s Oppression
These scenarios may create a stark contrast with the impression we usually have to a cosmopolitan Hong Kong famous for its international financial centre. The economic freedom, free flow of capital and freedom to information we used to enjoy in Hong Kong, will fade away after the law imposed. It is also the Sword of Damocles over all investors and ex-pats living and working on this island. When geopolitical tension intensifies, ex-pats can fall victim to the ill-defined law and China's hostage diplomacy. In the past, two Canadian nationals were detained for nearly two years as retaliation to Huawei's executive Meng Wanzhou's arrest, let alone Swedish NGO worker Peter Dahlin, Australian writer Yang Hengjun and Taiwanese NGO activist Lee Ming-che. Foreign journalists, human rights workers and academics were barred from Hong Kong. When China makes national security its priority, no one is safe.
Citizen journalists, booksellers, NGO workers, religious groups, online bloggers, booksellers, writers, human rights defenders or even critics of government policies are put behind bars. Amnesty International also raised concerns about its spill-out effects on economic activities and online speech. Once the law reaches out its claw to this beacon of liberty on China's soul, this vibrant civil society is on the brink of collapse.
Certainly, I would devote whatever efforts I can to defy this new round of oppression. But Beijing’s continued moves to crush democracy in Xinjiang and in Hong Kong also explain the Goliath we are facing is not as fierce as it looks like. In the past two decades, Beijing’s aggressive expansion in Europe, Asia and Africa has given a warning signal to democratic states all over the world. The world is awakening from the Chinese Nightmare. If we are determined to safeguard democratic aspirations, we must act to defy China's dictatoral grip.
Towards Democracy: Pain, Tears and Compassion.
In Hong Kong, we had experienced many depressing moments last year when state-mobilized mobs attacked passengers in the metro station, when police forcefully entered the university campus to arrest and to torture protestors, when witnessing countless students younger than me were put behind bars. What drives us to continue our struggle? My answer is compassion.
As my dear friend, Brian Leung said, ‘’Hong Kong Belongs to Everyone Who Shares Its Pain’’. In the previous year, we burst into tears mourning the death of protestors, we shared boxes of surgical masks to one another to defend ourselves from the Coronavirus. I also pray for protesters who are forced to leave our home because of their sacrifice in the movement. I pray for brothers who are struggled in jail now and I pray for those who will become political refugees soon. They are the reasons I’m still fighting in this battle. As we grow in pain, in tears and in compassion, I believe we shall succeed one day.
Thank you.

The Philadelphia 76ers are tired after playing six games in eight days. Thanks to Allen Iverson, they had more than enough energy to beat the Memphis Grizzlies.
Iverson scored 33 points as Philadelphia beat Memphis 95-88 Wednesday night, keeping the Grizzlies the NBA's only winless team with their 12th straight loss.
Philadelphia coach Larry Brown wasn't worried about becoming the
first team to lose to the Grizzlies this season.
"I was really impressed with them. I knew it would be a hard game,'' he said. "I just wanted to figure out a way we could hang on. We had some tired guys out there. Allen stepped up, and we had some tremendous defensive stops, and we got a win.''
The 76ers won for only the second time in six road games this
season and got a measure of revenge against Memphis, which swept
last season's two-game series. They lead the all-time series 11-3.
Todd MacCulloch had 15 points and 13 rebounds for Philadelphia.
Eric Snow added 14 points, Aaron McKie 12 and Keith Van Horn 10.
Stromile Swift set a Memphis record by blocking eight shots, and he also had 12 points and 16 rebounds. Rookie Drew Gooden led the Grizzlies with 21 points, Pau Gasol had 14 and Wesley Person added 12 off the bench.
Van Horn called it an ugly game but said the 76ers felt
fortunate to pull out a victory against a team desperate to win. He
said they didn't want to be the first club to lose to Memphis.
"It's definitely on your mind. It's almost like a fear not to be the first to lose,'' he said.
Philadelphia trailed only once, 24-22 in the first quarter, before Brian Skinner hit a pair of free throws and a layup for the lead. The 76ers led by as much as 13 twice, the last time at 54-41 on MacCulloch's layup off an assist by Iverson just before halftime.
The Grizzlies, playing their fourth game in six days and hoping
to give new coach Hubie Brown a victory, pulled to 67-63 when Earl
Watson capped an 8-0 run with a jumper with 1:54 left in the third.
But Iverson, scoreless in the quarter until then, answered with
a pair of 3-pointers. McKie added a jumper for a 75-63 lead after
three.
Gooden scored with 43.4 seconds left to pull the Grizzlies to
92-86, but that was as close as they would get.
Hubie Brown pointed out that he and his assistant coaches have been with the Grizzlies only eight days, playing three of four games against teams that went to the playoffs last season. He is using these games to evaluate his players.
"Are we happy tonight? Absolutely not. We're not happy at all,'' Hubie Brown said. "Give Iverson his due. He made two spectacular shots. I thought he had a rifle instead of his hand. It was just great, great pressure shots.''
Iverson started slowly after scoring a season-high 38 points Tuesday night in a loss to New Orleans. He missed five of his first six shots, turned the ball over three times and had just three points in the first quarter.
The 76ers opened the game with a 9-2 run, but Gooden scored six
points to help the Grizzlies rally. Mike Batiste's layup gave them
a two-point lead late in the first.
Then Iverson warmed up, scoring 13 in the second quarter as he
went 7-of-8 at the free-throw line.
Memphis seemed sluggish after losing 110-106 in overtime at Minnesota on Tuesday night. The Grizzlies shot just 6-of-24 from the floor in the second quarter and finished shooting 39 percent (33-of-84).
Game notes
Swift had seven blocks in the first half. The team record for blocks had been shared by Gasol, who had seven twice last season as a rookie, and Bryant Reeves. ... Derrick Coleman, in just his second game this season, had just one point in 14 minutes for Philadelphia. ... Memphis guard Jason Williams sprained his left foot with 4 minutes left as he landed on Eric Snow's foot after tossing up a 3-point attempt. Williams walked off the court on his
own, but had to be helped to the locker room. X-rays were planned for Thursday.
