“Who am I?” – part 2

Saigon corner

Hello brothers and sisters,

I’m Vietnam terminalia catappa, people also call me tropical almond but I like terminalia catappa better. I’m seven and a half months old. Thanks to sunshine, rain, wind… and chị Hương’s care and love, my leaves are green and my stems are strong. I’ll be taller and bigger than that, to bring joy and happiness to people. I’m so happy now.

I have several brothers and sisters too. All of us come from the seeds chị Hương found under a Flamboyant tree and a Libidibia ferrea tree, probably brought there by the squirrels from the huge old terminalia catappa trees across the street. Continue reading “Who am I?” – part 2

Telling the youths: Serve other people

Dear brothers and sisters,

If I have a opportunity to share with students in a 7th grade class about “What your future could be? And how to prepare to achieve that future?”, I will talk to them about one thing – Serve other people.

I will start to talk to them like this.

Hi everyone,

I’m happy for coming here and sharing with you about an important thing for your life. That is “What your future could be? And how to prepare to achieve that future?” Continue reading Telling the youths: Serve other people

What do I see on the bus?

I’m a bus traveller, in or outside of Vietnam wherever I’ve lived. I’ve commuted by bus since I was a highschool girl. Many people keep asking me how can I survive without a motorbike in a country of tens of millions motorbike like Vietnam, where big cities of Saigon and Hanoi are constantly packed with traffic jam.

I simply don’t enjoy driving. Yes, that’s the fact. Driving makes me tired. Though, from time to time I do have to combine both buses and Grabbike when I do not have enough time to get where I need to be. Commuting by bus gives me rest, even if I got stuck in heavy traffic, it is still way better than sitting on a motorbike “eating” terrible smoke discharged from the vehicles. You surely know that once you’ve experienced crazy traffic in Vietnam. If you want to know how crazy is that craziness, simply do Google > Image for “traffic in Vietnam”.

Write like no one is reading

Dear brothers and sisters,

Many people love writing, but they are uncomfortable when writing and sending to ĐCN. Many reasons. Perhaps a great reason is they fear what other people think about them.

I want to open my heart, but I’m worry. I don’t know what I worry about, but I’m still worry. So what should I do?

Write like no one is reading. Continue reading Write like no one is reading

Learning with a little pain

Dear brothers and sisters,

Many people learn their life lessons with a lot of pain. They have to pay too much for their lessons. Although they pay too much, they may not be mature spiritually.

However, a few people learn their life lessons with a little pain. They only pay too little for their lessons. Although they pay too little, they are mature spiritually.

Where is the difference? Continue reading Learning with a little pain
