Kindness and anger
When I was young, I was told to treat others like I want others to treat me. Along the way, I don’t see it that way. Doing something good to others doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll receive something good for others. However doing something bad, somehow reciprocal. You’ll get it for sure. I take it that everyone likes kindness so kindness takes longer time to return to you. Everyone likes it so they want to keep it. Unlike bad things, lets […]
When you’re angry

Because you’ll be more furious. Acknowledge it. And say, it’s okay, you’re worth more than this. What’s the big deal. Because there are other big thing which worth your attention and energy more. Be happy! Be peaceful!

And the reason of my rant is I’m puzzled with some of my special friends thinking; they make me spend more time in sharing photos, announcing events or […]

2 things I learned from hiking Mt Fuji
I just came back from my Japan trip last week. There were 4 of us, 10 days in Japan mostly Tokyo area and Mt Fuji. Personally, this trip has a deep meaning not only because I’ve been longing to go to Japan but also this is my first time to use the language I’ve learned for the past 2 years. You can’t lie to nature Persevere, persevere and persevere Those two are connected to each other. This trip has more […]
