Sydney archive: harbor city photos, personal reflections, and quotes. Meditation, hope, and elevated spirits from Australia’s east coast.

Ha Long Bay-Cat Ba Archipelago (672, natural, 1994), Quang Ninh and Hai Phong, Vietnam Hoi An Ancient Town (948, cultural,1999), Quang Nam, Vietnam Angkor […]
💪🗽🤔 It’s good to have a lover to protect you, but it’s better to protect yourself. Because if he protects others in the future, you’ll be at a loss. Therefore, the less dependent a woman is on a man, the wiser she is. // 有爱人护着其实很好，但自己护得更好。因为万一以后人家护着别人了，自己却不知所措。所以，女人越不依赖男人，就越聪明。 Yǒu àirén hùzhe qíshí hěn hǎo, dàn zìjǐ hù dé […]
🌊🚣♂️🌟 རྟོགས་པ་སད་མཁན་ཡར་རྒྱས་དང་། རྨོངས་པ་ཆུ་སྣ་གར་ཁྲིད་འགྲོ། // The enlightened one reaches the shore, while the ignorant one drifts with the current. // 悟者上岸， 迷者随波逐流。 Wù zhě shàng’àn, mí zhě suíbōzhúliú. // Ngộ giả thượng ngạn, mê giả tùy ba trục lưu. // Người giác ngộ lên bờ, kẻ chấp mê thì cuốn theo dòng chảy. P.s.: Picture taken […]
[Cũng là ngồi, nhưng muốn ngồi ở đây / I’d rather be sitting here] 🌞🌛🗻 Sun and moon flow like the river’s flight, Time’s spark strikes stone, a fleeting light. Let earth and heaven shift their place, Atop my cliff, I sit with grace. // 日月如逝川， 光陰石中火。 任你天地移， 我暢岩中坐。 Rì yuè rú shì chuān, Guāngyīn […]
🌱🌟😔 What makes you grow is one hope after another without ending in despair. // 让你成长的，是一个又一个的希望和从未终止过的绝望。 Ràng nǐ chéngzhǎng de, shì yīgè yòu yīgè de xīwàng hé cóng wèi zhōngzhǐguò de juéwàng. // Nhượng nhĩ thành trường đích, thị nhất cá hựu nhất cá đích hi vọng hòa tòng vị chung chỉ quá đích tuyệt […]
⭕🌌💖 We all live under the same sky We all will live, we all will die There is no wrong, there is no right The circle only has one side. // 我们在同一片苍穹之下 我们都将存活, 我们终将死去 没有对错之别 如同圆只有一个边。 Wǒmen zài tóng yīpiàn cāngqióng zhī xià Wǒmen dōu jiāng cúnhuó, wǒmen zhōng jiàng sǐqù Méiyǒu duì cuò zhī […]
😇🎈🌬️ The reason angels can fly is because they take themselves very lightly. // 天使之所以会飞, 是因为把自己看的很轻。 Tiānshǐ zhī suǒyǐ huì fēi, shì yīnwèi bǎ zìjǐ kàn de hěn qīng. // Thiên sử chi sở dĩ hội phi, thị nhân vi bả tự kỷ khán đích ngận khinh. // Sở dĩ thiên sứ có thể bay […]
🤗🌍😄 Hey you, it’s okay, half of the people in the world are below average too. P.s.: Picture taken in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia in 2018.
