Traditional Chinese Medicine

I was having lunch with my colleagues last week when one of them remarked that he doesn't believe in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) because it is not scientific. This got me thinking: what is scientific? I remembered from my school days that anything that is scientific has to passed though the scientific process. So now I looked up Wikipedia and found the proper term is the "scientific method":

The scientific method is a body of techniques for investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and integrating previous knowledge. To be termed scientific, a method of inquiry is commonly based on empirical or measurable evidence subject to specific principles of reasoning.

So now, is TCM scientific? I would say yes as it has hundreds of years of clinical bedside tests that seems to follow the scientific method. The only thing that causes people to doubt it is that a lot of information about it and its remedies are not documented properly. China and other Asian countries that practices TCM should come together and publish in a systematic way, preferably online, for more people to understand.

Reflection

我是一个不曾有过爱情的人
但也和任何人一样渴望爱情
即使得不到我也不会放弃爱
爱所有对我的可能和不可能
我不懂得开口更不敢开口说
只希望能用文字感动那一人
可是我的心中仍然存有疑虑
没有恋爱只有暗恋单恋的我

能写出不同阶段的故事情节
我想我唯有能多听多看多读
去沉浸在别人的爱情故事里

《花仙子》

Verse

我穿越了無數小草
沿著你的香氣尋找
你的身影隨著風飄
不曾停留在哪一秒

我的視線就近在咫尺
你不表示也沒有排斥
是感覺不到我的注視
還是刻意對我的忽視

Chorus

花仙子~我在你身邊飛
無論多久都不覺得累
你就為何不讓蜜蜂陪
卻怪蝴蝶沒有時間給

花仙子~我一直在等待
等著你對我有所理睬
你也只期盼蝴蝶的到來
始終沒看到蜜蜂的存在
