Personality versus Outward Appearances
Some of you may be wondering why I chose to use an artistic depiction of a tire swing to coincide with an article that is on the topic of human superficiality. I think I'll explain it like a parable. The tire swing is not your typical swing found at most parks. There have been many man-made swings, but the standard swing is not meant to spin and is designed in most cases for one person to sit on. The tire swing is unique because not only is it an upcycle (saving the planet from tires dumped at the bottom of the ocean or rivers) it also can carry two children, swing back and forth, and spin for delirious enjoyment. I think of the tire swing the way I think of how people can sometimes get bent out of shape regarding how people look. Some care nothing about it, while others care too much about it. Most lack a good balance. When someone isn't by standard definition of "attractive" or "beautiful" they are often described as having a great personality, to soften the judgements of those who have not met the person before and introduce them as desirable regardless. Let's say a standard swing is the normal definition of "attractive" or "beautiful", and the tire swing has a great personality. Now you understand the connection.

Peace demands emotional maturity.
Los Angeles, 2023. It was a Thursday evening, and only Mason and I were in the house as our Thursdays used to be. The evening started with some art explorations. Between a monster and a robot, Mason began to tell me about two kids who were reacting violently during playtime at his preschool. One was a boy, and the other was a girl. They were biting and pushing other kids when their demands were not met. Mason told me about it with a disappointed look and a sad voice; it was somehow sweet to notice that he was upset with the situation.

Im Lặng Kêu Cứu . Content Warning. AI-Generated.
Oh, now I'm back in Saigon. I'm not at home. Tham Tu asked me to solve the case of his lost cat. Now he is calling me to come. Are you still sleeping? I'm not at home right now. No matter what, it doesn't matter whether you wait for me tonight or not. I'm just waiting for you to find the cat. That's my fate. I don't need to look for the cat right now. If we don't look for the cat now, when will we? Oh my god, we need to find the cat as soon as possible. The longer it stays out, the more likely it is to get lost. A cat is a life. Currently, your cat is also your closest friend, right? But I don't have a home; I'm busy. I'm in an emergency. Help me. Please talk about savings, not emergencies. Where are you? Where are you, doctor? Help me, I'm busy. Are you a doctor? Okay, just need to complete urgent work, so what's the address? Which employees accept to work without pay? Is that the room for that? New capacity is important. I will tell you the bank needs maintenance, if my account does not have 300 million then I will protect you. Are you home? Didn't I tell you not to smoke? Tell me quickly, what's wrong with your eyes? I saw someone smoking inside. I think there's an intruder. It appears that the smoking ban has been violated. Call the police. Wait, calm down again. Why call the police? It's me, remember? I'm trying your account password. Okay, you can go. I will open the window for you. Oh my god, why the disrespect? Are you mocking me? You opened the door, what now? Do I have to take the money? Wait, I'm helping you. Conducive? What is happening? Why don't you believe me? Leave and help, no need to find a cat. From the beginning of the conversation, the homeowner said that the cat was very important to him. Why can't the mouse be found now? Chances are this is a dangerous person. Do you know what this can replace? At this point, both of you are panicking and unfocused. The cat is lost and the two are arguing. This matter has nothing to do with you, Hai. And don't say Hai is a bad guy; he did not point the gun at anyone. I am a moderate person. Who messed with the cat? We are in love; No need to talk about the lost cat. It's not relevant. Please comment calmly. Let me start with the cat. Climb the tree, not the house. The little cat is missing. Last night there was an intruder here. This service is not simple. How do you know there are footprints here? No one brought a ladder inside. Even if it were me, my footprint would be different. Oh, it looks like a cat scratch. No problem for my expertise; I will resolve it quickly. Long time no see. These three days are too long. You appreciate my secret mission. 113 seconds, learn quickly. What do you mean by 113? Now I'm confident; let's start. Call the police. Let's find out. Please work faster. Why gold? Busy or what? Go home now. Even the bank still warned me that the transfer was successful. I took a screenshot and sent it. Okay, stop it. You still don't trust me? Don't have any ideas. I know what I'm doing. Do you think I know nothing about cats now? You want to do it, but I won't. I don't have detailed information about it. Do you understand everything now? Then you are not as simple as I thought. I heard everything you said, Hai. You mean I'm not stupid like you? Don't think I won't show up. I heard what I needed. As I slept, I kept thinking about where the cat could be. Okay, now I'll...300113

We are 6 months into 2024 and I haven’t achieved all my goals yet.
We are 6 months into 2024 and I haven’t achieved all my goals yet. Let’s be true to ourselves, this is the stance of millions worldwide. We all have made our New Year resolutions and have faltered in our discourse of being consistent and true about it. To be consistent in your stance, you need clarity and focus on what you are headed towards, when the head is lost in aimless directions of what should be, we lose our sight of what we are and where we should be headed. In absolute honesty, I too was directionless in the first 6 months of my existence in 2024. To give you more insight into my journey here is my account of the first half of 2024-

We Are The Murderers of Our Own Dreams
As a kid, what did you dream of becoming? maybe a firefighter? a painter? a rock star? a footballer? I bet it was never something like an engineer or financial analyst. Your dreams were as vast as the universe itself, higher than the clouds up in the sky, bounded by no limitations of reality. You wanted to conquer the world, never had a thought of failing at things. All you craved was growing up enough to achieve them, right?
