Langmusi 5 Years Ago Today

[5 years ago today] ༄ ‍⛰️️❤️ As deep as mountains, as gentle as wind. // 深沉如山,温煦如风。 Shēnchén rúshān, wēnxù rú fēng. // Thâm trầm như sơn, ôn hú như phong. // Sâu thẳm như núi, dịu dàng như gió. P.s.: Picture taken in Langmusi (Taktsang Lhamo), Sichuan and Gansu, China in 2019.

Sometimes you find yourself in the middle of nowhere

Embracing Solitude

4 years ago today, I visited Langmusi. 🌳🚶‍♀️💫 Sometimes you find yourself in the middle of nowhere. And sometimes in the middle of nowhere, you find yourself. // 有时你会发现自己在偏僻的地方。有时在偏僻的地方,你会发现自己。 Yǒushí nǐ huì fāxiàn zìjǐ zài piānpì dì dìfāng. Yǒushí zài piānpì dì dìfāng, nǐ huì fāxiàn zìjǐ. // Hữu thì nhĩ hội phát hiện tự […]

You can't take everything with you except karma

Karma Is Forever

Yunnan 2023, Day 5: Tiger Leaping Gorge And Shangri-La

This morning, I went to the Tiger Leaping Gorge. Though the water was not as high, the gorge was worth looking. It was another sunny day in Yunnan, but as I went higher, the weather was cooler to my liking. In the afternoon, I reached Shangri-La (Zhongdian) in Yunnan. The so-called little Potala was a […]

However, some dishes seemed to be very salty. In the morning, the bus took 4 hours from Kunming to Dali. In Dali, I had the opportunity to […]

I have been telling myself all these years, don't take anyone or anything other than myself

Spiritual Pillar

💡🕯️🔥 I have been telling myself all these years, don’t take anyone or anything other than myself as a spiritual pillar because everything has a shelf life. Sincerity will expire, and the light that once lit you will go out. Only you will not give up on yourself. // 这些年有一直告诉自己,不要把除自己以外的任何人和事物当作精神支柱,任何事情都有保质期。真心会过期,曾经照亮你的光也会熄灭,只有自己不会放弃自己。 Zhèxiē nián yǒu yīzhí gàosù […]
