Jesus,
“Love” in “I love you”
in Vietnamese is “yêu”,
but I like using the word “thương”.
Why?
“Yêu” is the crazy and strong feeling.
And “thương” is the tender and naive feeling.
I feel so. Continue reading Prayer 473

The American, Will Nguyen, was visiting Ho Chi Minh City ahead of his graduation this summer from a master’s program at the University of Singapore, according to a statement from his family and friends.
Jesus,
You care about my mom.
You’re joyful as a child
when my mom comes home from the market.
You ask me
whether it is so hot at noon at the market,
and whether my mom is so tired or not.
Then you call the clouds
and the summer noon becomes cooler.
You love my mom so much.
You’re lovely.
Amen.

Their 18-month-old baby, Ly Thi Hoa, who had her hand burned by boiled water four days ago, is playing on the ground, and occasionally crying out in pain.
Xi said that he bought medicine for his young daughter.
“The pain will wear off after a few days. My house is too far from the hospital so I cannot take my daughter there,” he told Nong Thon Ngay Nay (Countryside Today) newspaper.
Giêsu ơi,
Càng sống với Giêsu lâu,
em càng dễ chấp nhận mọi chuyện.
Càng dễ chấp nhận mọi chuyện,
em càng dễ chấp nhận Giêsu.
Càng dễ chấp nhận Giêsu,
em càng trở nên giống Giêsu hơn. Continue reading Lời cầu nguyện 471 – Prayer 471
Jesus,
I love quiet moments with you.
Seeing you smile,
listening to your singing,
sharing with you my tiny stories
and healing together with you
(though I’m still not good at this).
I love you, Jesus.
Amen.

Environmental pollution is killing more people every year than smoking, hunger or natural disasters, according to a major study released in The Lancet medical journal on Thursday.
One in every six premature deaths worldwide in 2015, could be attributed to diseases caused by toxins in air or water, the study says.

Over the past three years, the U.S. and China have been at odds over the status of Chinese artificial islands in the South China Sea and U.S. Freedom of Navigation Operations.
The Origin of FON Ops
1979
The U.S. government initiated a Freedom of Navigation Program to contest “unilateral acts of other states designed to restrict the rights and freedom of the international community.” The program includes both maneuvers designed exclusively to challenge maritime claims the U.S. considers excessive, and operations with other purposes that incidentally challenge territorial claims.

We’re all human beings, but we’re not all alike.
Each person experiences pain differently, from an emotional perspective as well as a physical one, and responds to pain differently. That means that physicians like myself need to evaluate patients on an individual basis and find the best way to treat their pain.
Today, however, doctors are under pressure to limit costs and prescribe treatments based on standardized guidelines. A major gap looms between the patient’s experience of pain and the limited “one size fits all” treatment that doctors may offer.
