My definition of success
What is “success” to you? I don’t have a clear definition of success. But I understand it’s a kind of accomplishment we strive to aim at. It’s easier for me to think about the kind of success I want to have in life by closing my eyes. I close my eyes and think of the future. In what scene can I see me smile? Who is in that scene with me? How’s the surrounding? I always close my eyes and paint a detailed picture of my most desired future like that. That’s literally how I picture my success.

I’m glad I’m doing all of these
Seems like my blog is getting more and more personal, hehe (I don’t mind at all, since it IS a personal blog). Today, I went to work in a happy mood. Because I know that quitting my full-time job is opening new opportunities for me. It’s thrilling to see what I’m capable of in the future.

About pursuing happiness
For my beloved friends. My friends, one is 28 years old and the other is 27. Both are young kind ladies. However, according to Vietnamese traditional way of counting age, they are now 29 and 28 years old. Of course, also as a tradition, the world around them starts to spin around just one question: “When will you get married? You’re already a little over THAT age.” The fuss gets worse when in the neighborhood there’s a boy/girl at their age (even younger) getting married.

I started writing again
I know a writer doesn’t actually have to write daily. But except for writing for my client, I’ve stopped jotting down my thoughts for a long time. No online blog post nor a quick note on paper. I don’t remember the last personal thing I wrote or what it was about. That’s how long I’ve abandoned connecting to my inner self.

Rain Happiness
A hard, cold rain doesn’t mean it’s time for sadness Yesterday, when the sun was inch by inch laying down on his horizon bed, there was a rain sneaking in. The nice autumn weather – a little bit of cold, a little bit of sunlight and the light breeze – suddenly got interrupted by a really heavy rain.

A Little Of Happiness Each Day
My happiness today is simply the glowing red sun setting down on the horizon when I’m on my way to pick up my little sunshine. The autumn sun always leaves earlier. And around one month from now, I guess I won’t be able to catch up with the sunset to say him Good night!

Love Is All You Need
Well, it sounds unnecessarily romantic but honestly, it’s so darn true. You can do anything, with love. Just put a heart in it. I’ve been seeing it with my own eyes – from the spouses as well as couples around me – coming in each other’s fate with a true love.

The Truth About Love
I’ve been in love for a long time. I think it’s long enough not only to have dwelt in it romantically but also to see I need to bend my feelings at times not to be hurt. #1: Two is not always better than one Two is better than one, but sometimes you’d better off alone to solve your own problem. When you’re in love, you’ll have the tendency to depend on your partner and think you two should do everything together – you think that’s the sign of being in love. However, that’s not always the case. For certain things, you have to solve them on your own cuz…

Let it go
Holding grudges against others is really exhausting and unhappy. I learned this on a beautiful day. You know, I have some people I hate, really hate. I’m not that meanie who hates so many things or many people but I do have people I really don’t like. With some, even their presence annoys me so much. I’m so grumpy, eh? No, I am NOT. There are reasons why I hate them, but okay, chill out, I’m not gonna talk about these. I wanna talk about the lesson I learned during that time. Do you think hating someone is normal? I agree. They must do terrible things to you so you hate…

Happiness Is What You Can Actually MAKE
Yesterday I hung out with my Mom. It’s been quite a long time. Lately, she has been lonely at home – literally – because my Dad usually goes out all day – except evening, the man is old now you know – for his favorite job – motor taxi, my brother, and sister-in-law have their things to do too. My sister-in-law is pregnant so when she’s back from work she stays in her room even more now. So my Mom sits alone almost all day with her little retail store. I’m having a guilty feeling right now for not being able to visit her much often last week since I got some re-union meetings with…
