Saigon Secrets

www.saigonsecrets.com

My younger brother who stayed and lived in Vietnam for half a year, mainly to learn and analyze the crazy and busy markets of Saigon. I wasn’t quite sure what the end result would be after his trip was over, but amazingly enough, he published an ebook that shows you various ways to optimizing your travel so you could save time, money, stress, and the frustration of dealing with price bargaining. Now, how interesting is that?

Besides his work and mysterious ways in operating everything, my brother and I are two separate believers in life and society, yet we share one common goal, and that is doing whatever it takes to make us happy, even if it is writing about it, being poetic about it, being stupid about it, or whatever it is that we must do until we finally get to the answer even if the answer is “no answer”. 

We don’t believe in making sacrifices. We don’t tolerate others’ behaviors that ultimately make us feel unhappy or miserable at the end of the day. We try to work things out, we give chances, we give opportunities to those who make us feel uneasy or sad, as much as we give ourselves opportunities to fix our own mistakes, in other words, equal employment opportunities for everybody.

We keep the goods with us, and perch the bads an the uglys away from the system. It may sound generic, it may sound a bit too harsh, it may sound too deterministic, but it is a weapon, more than a strategy, that we use to meet our only one selfish goal. And that goal, ultimately, means happiness for ourselves, so debate or not, is it really selfish?

Fuck, I am so sleepy, so this one is a no-edit publish…See you later gangstas.

Wish I could

Wish I could stop by so I can say Hi
Wish I could stop by so I can make it right
Wish I could stop by so I can keep you mine
Wish I could stop by so I can apologize

Chemical

Can you feel this chemical reaction? This hideous attraction? Could this be so positively awful? Could I stay in love forever?

Could this rain keep on falling, crashing on this cement, this parking lot, this ground I run on? Could this natural and musical rhythm from the sky make life anymore wonderful than I wished for?

So, rain on me and let me feel this chemical attraction.

Baby

"I'm sorry baby", she said. She wants what's best for him, she wants him to be happy, she wants him to find his own smile. She cannot be with him. Her reasons are unreasonable, even the best debater cannot find logical answers to these mental determinations.

It's quite cold here. I want it to be warm, like being with you, like being with the one you love. I love you baby, but I have to let go and take life as it is. I want life to hit you rock bottom, I want it to pain you with unpleasant moments. I cannot do it for you anymore, you are on your own baby, and I believe you can do it, do it for me, do it for yourself, and do it for your life.

I would cry and die for you, baby. I would do anything to save your life, baby, and I wouldn't do anything to save your life too baby. Today, I chose not to so I can save your life, baby.

Love Ada 95

Five years with Ada, Cube Root is blank with no directions. She left him odd feelings, challenging ways to resolve his own issues. She termed it, exactly just for him, exactly just like Ada 95.

Burden

A woman's burden is no man's burden. It is filled with caring, loving, and unconditional circumstances. Her heart is a symbol of infinity, as wide as an ocean, where no man sees no end. She would nurture, comfort, and be the blanket for her lover. She would kill, sacrifice, compromise, and die for her babies.

A woman's burden cries many endless nights for her husband, her children, and her country. A woman's burden cannot be carried by another woman, it is she, whom is tied to the long slur of burdens.

I respect and appreciate a woman's burden. I respect and appreciate my mother's burden, and I too, soon, will have to carry a woman's burden.
