4-Day Trip To Bangkok (Thailand)

4-Day Trip To Bangkok (Thailand)

I’ve just finished a 4-day trip to Bangkok with my colleague. My sister should have come with us if she hadn’t been ill due to the latest attack of Bell’s palsy. Thailand infrastructure is kinda more modern than Vietnam, but there were so many traffic jams caused by cars. However, I liked their metro/BTS system. […]

Damnoen Saduak Floating Market

Damnoen Saduak Floating Market

This was the first time I’ve been to Thailand, and this country surprised me somehow. Before coming to this country, I thought it would be like Cambodia with a better view. But I changed my mind. I really liked Bangkok, and Khaosan Road was not just another Bui Vien. Today I went to Damnoen Saduak […]

In this world, there are things you can only do alone, and things you can only do with somebody else

Balance Is Key

🌍🤝🌟 In this world, there are things you can only do alone, and things you can only do with somebody else. It’s important to combine the two in just the right amount. (After Dark – Haruki Murakami) // 在这个世界上,有些事情只能独自完成,也有些事情只能与他人共同完成。将两者恰到好处地结合在一起是非常重要的。 Zài zhège shìjiè shàng, yǒuxiē shìqíng zhǐ néng dúzì wánchéng, yě yǒuxiē shìqíng zhǐ néng yǔ […]

Even when there's no one parting I still miss the sound of a train whistle

Nostalgia

Wayne Dyer said, "You are only lonely if you don't like the person you are alone with."

Never Lonely

Wayne Dyer said, “You are only lonely if you don’t like the person you are alone with.” And that’s why I am never lonely. P.s.: Picture taken in Da Nang, Vietnam in 2015.

Where Is The Buddha?

Where Is The Buddha?

🌳🏔️🙏 Where is the Buddha? In the withered wilderness, a green grass is a Buddha; On a quiet and silent snowy night, a basin of charcoal fire is a Buddha; In the boundless river and sea, a single leaf boat is a Buddha; The colorful world is a simple Buddha; On tumultuous and noisy days, […]

Being a decent person is actually simple

Reciprocity

🤝💭🔁 Being a decent person is actually simple. If you treat me seriously, your concerns become mine. If you don’t take me seriously, why should I be concerned about your affairs? // 做人其实很简单,只要你把我当回事,你的事就是我的事,你不把我当回事,你的事跟我有什么关系。 Zuòrén qíshí hěn jiǎndān, zhǐyào nǐ bǎ wǒ dāng huí shì, nǐ de shì jiùshì wǒ de shì, nǐ bù bǎ wǒ […]

The courage I mustered eventually turned into a sigh

Courage And Sighs

🌬️😔🤪 The courage I mustered eventually turned into a sigh. // 鼓起的勇气最终只能变成一声叹息。 Gǔ qǐ de yǒngqì zuìzhōng zhǐ néng biàn chéng yīshēng tànxí. // Cổ khởi đích dũng khí tối chung chích năng biến thành nhất thanh thán tức. // Hít vào bao nhiêu dũng khí, cuối cùng lại chỉ thốt ra một tiếng thở […]

Those who have never left, never lived in many places, never experienced sunny rainy days in different lands

Broaden Horizons

🌍🤔💭 Those who have never left, never lived in many places, never experienced sunny rainy days in different lands, and never delved deep into the human heart, surely, they must pursue a shallow existence. // 那些从未离开过,从未生活在许多地方的人,在许多不同的土地上度过阳光明媚的雨天,从未深入过人类内心,他们一定能追求生活的肤浅。 Nàxiē cóng wèi líkāiguò, cóng wèi shēnghuó zài xǔduō dìfāng de rén, zài xǔduō bùtóng de tǔdì shàng dùguò […]
