Kite Flying

I can't remember exactly when, but seemed like a perfect summer day we (Thuan, Terrance and I) went to go fly Thuan's kite.  It was not an ordinary kite, it was one of those fancy Kites that can do tricks and spin around.  We went to a mini kite field in Mountain View where other people were flying their kite.  I of course was really good at crashing Thuan's kite straight to the ground.  Terrance managed to do some spins and Thuan was coaching and generously letting us play with his kite.  Thuan was just that type of person.  He'd get something really nice and would not hesitate to share it with his friends, even if they might break his stuff.  As we were leaving the field, Thuan stopped to help the kite flyer next to us.  Thuan taught the guy how to do a quick release knot and that guy was really happy to learn.  Then we went to the car and said our goodbyes.  It was not until later that I realized it was an expensive kite.  Thuan never mentioned it.  I guess he valued quality time with friends over materialistic things.
