Little things #8

23) One's purposes are different

We cannot compare with others because their purposes are not similar to ours. For example, some people are very good at English because it seems most of them want to become English teachers or for media. To be honest, I love English but sometimes I get bored studying. Oops! Oops!

Another personal example is I really admire a friend of mine. He not only has numerous accomplishments in research but he also learns and is very good at a third language (Korean). Actually, I know learning Korean is good for me when I am living in South Korea but I don't have a clear picture of this language so till now I haven't learned Korean seriously. 

I asked him why and how he learns Korean. He told me that he spends a little time in the morning and at night studying and he wants to work in Korea after graduation. I realize that one's purpose is different.

PS The thing is sometimes we do not simply do what we love. We also have to do what we should. 

24) It is better to practice

Some talents are linked with natural gifted such as singing, publish speaking, ... But it is still better if you practice. Everything is better if it is practiced.

25) A brilliant traveler

I am talking about Chris Lewis who is a YouTuber. He seems traveling for living and living for traveling. I see he is such a smart guy because, through a lot of videos he explores Vietnam with his incredible Vietnamese, he mostly knows what local people know.

Make a poem to you

Journey to us Do  not know how long it will take But I believe that one day, I will see you I will no longer passively wait as I used to Not only because I am getting older  But because I am also wiser And will not settle down until I found you You  are all that I long for -  An understanding, a connection, a long-lasting I stand here with an effort, a hope and a resilience You deserve all of my dedication  And you are worth the wait To  enter my heart, simple but secret In short, you should work harder than me Invest more and strive beyond me Only then I will see you standing where I am Finding  you is not different principle as all thing in my life Everything worthwhile must be learned and earned Valuable things take time with consistent striving But I will not leave myself eventually My happiness and well-being come first Do not tell me I am selfish It is your choice and my decision For I strongly believe this is how love works I   carry a pure...

A girl likes winter. It reveals herself

I like winter. Is that so strange and weird to you? I like winter when I was just a little kid. I had no idea at that time but I did know I like the atmosphere during winter. I love we all family members gathered in the warm stove. I like how we tried to make us hot. I like to wear thick jackets, wool hat, scarf and socks. I love Christmas and Lunar New year coming soon in the winter. Having said that, I give a truly special feeling for winter season. Liking winter still exist wherever I go. I studied Bachelor in HoChiMinh City far from my hometown and there is no winter in this place. I felt there must be something missing here and it was true. I miss my hometown and miss the cool air in the winter. It's rare for me to see someone claim that their favorite season in the year is winter. I can tell winter is my favorite. I like the air, the atmosphere. I like to see all people put on their jacket and scarf in the street. Everything seems closer together than ever. A book mention abo...

>>>>>Lyrics<<<<<<< I only wanted to have fun Learning to fly, learning to run I let my heart decide the way When I was young Deep down, I must have always known That this would be inevitable To earn my stripes, I'd have to pay And bare my soul I know I'm not the only one Who regrets the things they've done Sometimes I just feel it's only me Who can't stand the reflection that they see I wish I could live a little more Look up to the sky, not just the floor I feel like my life is flashing by And all I can do is watch and cry I miss the air, I miss my friends I miss my mother, I miss it when Life was a party to be thrown But that was a million years ago When I walk around all of the streets Where I grew up and found my feet They can't look me in the eye It's like they're scared of me I try to think of things to say Like a joke or a memory But they don't recognize me now In the light of day I ...
