Can there be two tigers in the same hill?

  Can there be two tigers in the same hill?



My friend said you are wrong. My friend said this is a very bad question. My friend said: maybe you can change it,  like this:

"Why they need two breasts in the same body?"

I think my friend is right.

Because we are human.

And this is a pretext for everything, including rights and wrongs.

Shall we allow two tigers in the same cage and let them fight?  or teach them to be friends?

It is against nature.

It is a human way, not a natural way.

You can never know a human method or a natural method can help the human survive better.

And you cannot let them go back into the jungle.

Then what are you going to do?

My suggestion is simple:

Teach them how to talk.

However, it is not easy.

The Chinese cannot even talk to themselves in the same language.   How can they talk with the American people?

This is not a joke.

This is political history.

note:    The traditional form of writing is different from a simplified form of writing.   It could be easier if no written things are involved......


My smart and  Intelligent AI told me:  No, they are talking with each other very well,  in Mandarin.....

What is a gun-pointed friendship in international politics?

 20261106

What is a gun-pointed friendship in international politics?



People are still talking and laughing and having grand dinners together with their guns pointing to each other.

It is the situation of modern international politics.

There has been no great war since the second world war.

But the guns are still raised instead of putting down.

No one can be hundred percent sure what will happen next.

Protection is important.

It includes military protection and cultural protection and science protection and economy protection,  etc.

Can we predict this situation be faded out in the next 50 years?

Or the next 10 years?

The truth is:  you will be safer if you can protect yourself.

You will lose everything if you cannot.

A breaking point could be cultural.

Can you talk with the same language?

When people cannot even talking to their own people in the same language nowadays,  it is a luxurious dream only.

And my dream is:

If you cannot talk with each other,  at least you can sing to each other.

Sometimes singing is still too political because singing is to use words.

Perhaps we can tune in our musical instruments and play some melodies without using words.

Are truths sacred?

 20261105

Are truths sacred?


  


Truths are the only path for us to go into the other land in the future.

If you do not know how to honor truths,  you will never be there.

It is only something from a subconscious mind.

But I believe it might be true.

What is the other land?

Some people said it is the other shore.

But it is not important.

We don't need to argue about whether another shore is true or not.

We only need to know that truth can bring us something.

Truth might not be sacred. 

But truths are useful.

*

And the important question remains:

What is truth and what is not a truth?

*

More important is the attitude about truth.

The conviction of truth determines success or failure.

What one believes or not believes is not important.  Important is the conviction.  Its the ultimate power to drive people forward.... Although it could be wrong and  disastrous  sometimes.

As for those without any conviction.....better not to work with them.

It is meaningless and ultimate result of failure.

Why some people never dance?

 20261104

Why some people never dance?



Maybe it is due to some inner feature of the human body.

Or maybe it is only the mindset of the people.

If you think you can dance, then you can dance.

If you think you cannot dance, then you cannot dance.

It is a simple test for your own mindset.

Can I do this and can I do that?

Sometimes it is determined by your inner future.

But more often it is determined by your own mindset.

Do I like music?

Can I play music?

It might not be all determined by yourself.

But you can try.

At first you can try dancing inside the bathroom where no one can see you.

Now it seems clear that why some people refuse to dance.......its due to a fear to show off infront of people.

Its more than an individual choice,  but a culture pressure.

If you can fight against it,  your inner ability will show up and you can achieve much much more.

Any one can try every means to search within themselves,  just to see how many good quality and big fortune have been neglected.

You'll find out finally that you are rich.


more:

If you can dance without drinking alcohol., 

If you can feel free from the inside.,

You will be rich very quickly.

Why everything is so interesting?

 20261103

Why everything is so interesting?



For example, can I do the air walk?

I beg my friend to teach me how to do the air walk.  He was reluctant and finally he came to give me a lesson for one hour.

It seems I can do it during the lesson.

But I never practiced it afterwards.

I believe I have totally forgotten about how to do the air walk.

I don't know why I am like this.

I hope I can try to practice it after writing this. 

Then you might find me walking strangely on the street sometimes later.

It is nothing but fun.

But please do not ask me if I have done that afterwards.

Can we say that the human is the only living being in the entire universe?

 20261102

Can we say that the human is the only living being in the entire universe?

 


An AI told me, as a factual claim, it’s not something we can assert—it’s an open scientific question.

It seems the answer should be no.

But I wish to say yes to it

It is only my personal feeling,  it is not necessarily correct.

But if you can put your imagination in such a setting,  you might be able to know something more.

Are we the only living being in the entire universe?

I imagine an answer of yes.

Then you can ask:

Why am I here?

It is the basic of consciousness.

It is important.

You will work harder if you believe you are the only child in the family.   You will bear all the responsibilities on your own shoulder.

What is the biggest question in this universe?

 20261102

What is the biggest question in this universe?




Please compare the following questions, and see which one is the most important.


1. Why there is a universe?

2. Where did the universe come from?

3. What is the future outcome of the universe?

4. Where are we going to?

5. Why are we here?


Almost all of the above questions are unanswerable.

But it can never stop our imagination.

The answer could be much more easier if there is a god or many gods behind all this. 

What are we supposed to do for the gods?

And if there are no orders from the gods,  or even there are no gods,  then the question is still waiting for an answer:

What are we supposed to do?

What future we are expecting?

Can we create our future or can we wait for a future destiny?

Our future might be created or arranged:

Depends on how we set up a structure of a future destiny:   It might be coming from an arrangement or it might be coming from our own will.

It is not important about the will: whether it is from god or from ourselves.

Important is there might be an outcome:   Even though it is not from a will.

However, the above question is only for naive peoples.   Most people never think about it.

But I believe most of the major powers do have a secret department to study the above problems and they will never release their findings to the public.

The reason behind it is that they can never know it completely.   They are not certain about it.

It needs an imagination for the peoples like you and me:

I think there must be a role for us humans.....

We might never reach the thinking logic of the  hypothetical  "gods"..... We might never be able to do it because our brains are limited.

The secret is never understandable.... You would not believe it if I told you.

But we can share it in the dreams.

Can you live longer than your life?

 20261101.

Can you live longer than your life?



It is a dream of many people. The meaning is different.  You can wish to live longer,  but to live longer than your life is different. There is a concept of afterlife.  You can stay after life, but you cannot live out of life.

Your important deeds can stay.   But you cannot live to control it.  

What does it mean?

It means everyone needs to finish his job before his life ends.

Can you leave behind a direction and a future outlook?

Chinese people have been warned by the  Emperor Chin.   He wished to build his eternal kingdom  but failed.

So people will remember that eternal something can only be unrealistic.

Eternal is on the deeds but not on the work.

It is a total effort of all the waters to keep a river flowing.

Waters can return,  but the river cannot.

A river of no return is composed by drops of waters.

I cannot live longer than my life, but I believe my dreams can........

Only that I wish someone can share my dream.

I hope you can remember my dream.

I have a vivid dream that I can fly.

I can fly over the sea and inside the subway tunnel: lots of people were walking  hurriedly to their work, but I was flying over them happily.

I believe you would like to share it.

Maybe you would like to share my dream.

How long can a monkey live?

 20261031

How long can a monkey live?




We are given different life spans.  Differences may be good for us, but it creates also inequality and tragedies sometimes.   Please refer to my story:   "The monkey and a little yellow flower".   My mother died when I was 11 years old,   I would say it is good for me for my later development. ........If  I was not living like a wild street boy,  I will not be Leechard now.....


from AI:

The lifespan of a monkey varies dramatically depending on the species, and whether it lives in the wild or in captivity. There is no single answer, but generally, smaller monkeys tend to have shorter lives, while larger ones can live for several decades.


📊 Lifespan by Species (Examples)


Here is a look at the average and maximum lifespans for some well-known monkey species, primarily based on data from captive populations:


· Common Marmoset: Average 5–10 years, maximum 21 years.

· Squirrel Monkey: Average 20 years, maximum 30 years.

· Tufted Capuchin: Average 10–17 years, maximum 45 years.

· Rhesus Macaque: Average 25–40 years, maximum 40 years.

· Japanese Macaque: Average 28–32 years, maximum 39 years.

· Olive Baboon: Average 25–30 years, maximum 38 years.


🌳 Wild vs. Captivity


The environment plays a huge role in how long a monkey lives.


· In Captivity: With regular food, medical care, and protection from predators, monkeys often live longer. For example, a Rhesus macaque in the wild lives about 18 years, but in a research center with excellent care, it can live up to 38 years.

· In the Wild: Life is tougher due to predators, disease, and food scarcity. However, for some species, wild lifespans can still be impressive. Rhesus macaques, for instance, can live 30–36 years in the wild.


💡 Key Takeaways


· Old World vs. New World: Old World monkeys (like macaques and baboons) often live longer (up to ~25+ years) than New World monkeys (like marmosets and capuchins), which typically live up to ~20 years.

· Record Breakers: Some individuals far exceed averages. A Capuchin monkey named Ma lived to be at least 47 years old in captivity.



How long can an elephant live?

(Another stimulation for us......)



The lifespan of an elephant is impressively long, but it varies depending on the species and, quite significantly, whether they live in the wild or in captivity. Generally, African elephants tend to live longer than Asian elephants.


🐘 Lifespan by Species


· African Elephant: The average life expectancy is around 70 years. In the wild, they can live up to 70 years or even slightly more, making them one of the longest-living mammals.

· Asian Elephant: The average life expectancy is roughly 60 years in the wild. However, some individuals have been known to live for over 80 years, particularly in captivity or under human care.


🌳 Wild vs. Captivity


A crucial factor is the environment. Studies indicate that wild elephants generally live significantly longer than those in zoos.


· In the Wild: Elephants in protected areas can live more than twice as long as those in European zoos. For example, one study found the median lifespan for wild African elephants in Kenya's Amboseli National Park was 56 years, compared to just 17 years for zoo-born females.

· In Captivity: Life expectancy in captivity can vary widely. Some research shows average lifespans for captive African elephants around 33 years in North America, with even lower averages (around 17-19 years) reported in some European zoo populations. For captive Asian elephants, averages are often cited around 45 years.


💡 Key Takeaways


· Species Matters: African elephants typically have a longer average lifespan (~70 years) compared to Asian elephants (~60 years).

· The "Wild Advantage": Despite the hardships of predators and disease, wild elephants live much longer on average than their captive counterparts.

· Record Breakers: The maximum known lifespan for an Asian elephant is over 80 years, showing the potential for these animals to live exceptionally long lives under the right conditions.

What are the top secrets for human?

 20261030

What are the top secrets for human?



If we know the top secrets of human, then we will not be human.  We will be another species above human.

What is above human?

For example, if you can know the secret of time, you'll be above human.

I would rather to use the term "above human" more than superhuman.  

We have at least three secrets here:

What is time, what is space and what is human?

And actually, these three things are not important at all.

Time has no beginning and time has no ending. That could be a secret.

Space is more or less the same.

Space has no boundary.

We can never imagine anything without boundary.

And then in such a space and time, it comes something we call it "human".

If I tell you humans are not humans but only "deeds", it might not be  surprising.

What are the human deeds for?

Can the deeds of humans change the universe sometimes later?

Will humans be the major cause of the entire universe?

Will there be some unknown reasons behind everything?

The only thing we need is to escape from the  boundary of human thoughts.

You must be thinking like a non-human to search for the ultimate secrets.

And it is not easy.

You must elevate yourself from human to non- human, then you might have a better standing point to "see" into the ultimate truth of this little universe.

How "not-easy" is that?

You might need another life to study it.

Now is the time of importance to the human race.

Because we are forgetting the religious stories to ponder about the universe.

Perhaps we need to forget about the scientific stories too.

What we need most is an urge to know more.  And the urge must be beyond the control of religions and science fictions.

Religion is a discipline of thoughts.

And science is is more or less the same:

Science is also a discipline of thoughts.

I dare not to oppose them both.

I dare not to fight against disciplines.

I wish to have someone who dares.

I am expecting miracles.

Because I believe humans are miracles.

Why love is a simple thing?

 20261029

Why love is a simple thing?




Two years ago I have written a story: "Monkey and a little yellow flower".

Actually, it is a simple love story.   It is very natural,  the monkey fell in love with a flower,  they have only three days getting together.   Because the life of the flower was only three days.

They saw each other and they loved each other and then the flower died.

It is simple and not complicated.

Love is simple.  But modern people are considering too many things about love.  Especially when money is involved,  love will become difficult and complicated.

講錢失感情........

Talking about money loses one's feelings.

Money is an obstacle to emotion.  And this is the major obstacle to modern evolution of human wisdom.

No matter how much wisdom there are,  once financial problem is involved,   wisdom will be lost like draining water.

Can people keep their wisdom like money?

It is obviously not possible.

Clever people can make quick money but wisdom cannot help.

That's why people are driving away wisdom like rubbish......

It is a dirty world without wisdom.

Aren't we going the same way?

 20261029

Aren't we going the same way?




I aways wonder the vastness of the universe.   It is very difficult to imagine about such a place without limit.   If you are flying to a certain direction towards any point in this universe,  you need to bring things enough for your life time  until one day you are dead and your corpse will still be flying........

What is the situation?

It is the situation of the planet earth.

We are doing the same thing flying towards somewhere unknown.   The only difference is you cannot manipulate the direction.  You can only follow.  But it is the same.   It doesn't matter, even if you have a direction or have not any direction. 

It is quite different from our personal life.

You might have a personal direction of your life.  You might have done something.  But the result is always within the planet earth. 

Where are you going,  my dear planet earth?

There will be no answer for you.

The answer must be in your own mind.   Maybe you have a will.  But your will will not exceed the limit of the planet earth. It is ok with me.  Like the little flowers I am growing,  or the deeds I am doing.......Aren't they important?

I think so..........

My corpse is flying,  with my soul.

Why am I forgetting sometimes?

 20261028

Why am I forgetting sometimes?




I have designed or invented a "sound pole" for my guitar.  I installed almost all my guitars with the inner sound poles to make them sound better with the poles as a connection between the floors of the instrument.

By such a little design, I can change a $500 cheap guitar into a $5000 better one.

However,  next morning when I inspect my newly designed guitar,  I have found the poles were missing.  I had forgotten the important step.

How come I was so careless?

If I was in the war field, can I forget to bring my gun?

It was the lesson my school teacher taught me many years ago.

And now,  I will make an effort not to forget things anymore......It might be of some importance.

Do not forget things anymore.

.....

Actually I did not mean to write about the trivials.  I wish to study more important matters.

Should we humans forget to search our roles as a human?

or,

Should we Chinese forget to search our roles as a Chinese?

But its too big a subject to talk about.....though I will never forget it.

Whiy learning Chinese is important?

 20261027

Why learning Chinese is important?



Because it is the only format different from  western languages.

Chinese is not merely a second language for your choice.

It is the second brain to think.

There are many  spelling languages in this world, but there might be only one Chinese language which doesn't need spelling.   I hope people can discover more non-spelling languages in the world in the future.

To talk in a non-spelling way:

That means you are switching your brain if you use Chinese to think.

 The Chinese language is using a different side of the brain.

It is intuitional rather than logical.

You can get to the point directly without going a longer path.

" It is not logical ".........

But you can feel and see the result by going deeply into it.

How do the Chinese think?

 20261026

How do the Chinese think?




I have been changing my mind in writing about the subject here.  I am reluctant to talk about it. If I tell you all the features and all the special ways how the Chinese think, enemies could beat them easily as the weaknesses were so obvious and its a disadvange in wars of cultures.  Cultural weakness could be an easy target of shooting,   although sometimes the weakness is a strong fortress,  not easily be a target.

How do the Chinese think?  

Hope I can tell you more in a safe place, not now.

Why awareness is important?

 20261025

Why awareness is important?




Most people do not become aware during their lifetime.  Perhaps dying can bring awareness, but by then it is useless and too late.

The state before awareness is innocence, or  ignorant.

To be naive is good,  anyone can enjoy a naive period in life.

It is the most luxurious thing the Creator has given us.

If you can keep your sense of naivete  in your whole time, you can enjoy your life better....though you might not know you are enjoying.

You need some awareness to really enjoy your life.

You may be aware that you are small and you are weak, but still you want to do something.

You want to do more.

You know that you cannot fly and you cannot reach the end of the universe, but still you want to know more.

This kind of awareness is meaningful.

We are more or less expected to be like that.

床前的明月光

 20261024

抱歉,沒辦法把我的歌聲放上來。只好放上文字了。





床前的明月光。

以為是地上霜。

心傷去望明月。

冇錢去返家鄕。

最怕個明月光。

天空中冰冰冷。

今晚黑點樣瞓。

帶我去夢遊鄉。


床前的明月光。

以為係白雪霜。

天空有夜明月。

最怕嗰夜又長。

散播的是希望。

寂寞的是嫦娥。

心胸中只有你。

月亮就是嫦娥。




The moon is in front of my bed.

I thought it was the frost.

I wish to see the moon,

but I have no money to go home.

I am afraid of the moon.

It was cold up there.

How can I sleep tonight,

Please bring me to the dreamland.


The moon is in front of my bed.

I thought it was the snowy frost.

There was a moon in the sky.

But the night is too long for me.

It is hope, spreading everywhere.

But the angel on the moon is lonely.

I am thinking only you,

The angel is on the moon.

What is the implication of infinity?

 20261024

What is the implication of infinity?




We are living in a place of unlimited boundary.   We know almost nothing about the infinitive upon us.

Humans can reach only a very small spot in in this infinity.

We might never be able to travel around this infinity.

It is upon this situation, humans developed lots of ideas about this infinity, including religion.

Only one word can tell the situation of human:

We are ignorant.

What can an ignorant person do?

The choice of most people is to forget.

They just attend to the daily life and daily living.

It is normal and it is vital because living is most important.

If you are not able to live, that means you are not able to understand.

However, humans are living in organizations.

Humans are organized.

They can always share a part of their energy to watch the infinitive...... Although it is almost useless.

But awareness is important.

We must keep ourselves alerted in such a situation.

10/23/2026

Can you imagine a place without boundary?

 20261023

Can you imagine a place without boundary?



 It means:  the universe.   However, the universe is completely outside the imagination of humans.   It is unimaginable.  

Because in our limited experiences,   everything has got a boundary, nothing is without boundary.   It is completely reasonable to have a place without boundary.   If the universe has got a boundary,  that means the universe has got an outside.....

I suppose only a limited few people would be interested to see what is there outside the universe.

Most of the folks just don't care.

But if you dig deeper into it, you will be excited.

Any other things might be no boundary.

For example, your own imagination is no boundary.

You might feel exhausted if you keep imagining.   But you can take a rest to continue your  imagination.

What will you see if you keep traveling in this unlimited space?

There might be something extraordinary happening out there.

The old findings are frightening.

They said there is no oxygen and no air that you cannot breathe anywhere.

But what if the problem is solved sometimes later?

Can you be still traveling around there?

Do you dare to imagine you can fly unlimited spaces?

It is only a dream.

But if you dare not to dream, you got nothing.

And you can replace your dreams with your imagination.

How would a place without boundary be like?

Let me tell you something real.

The human mind is unlimited.  Human imagination has got no boundary.

You can think as far as you can go.

The term fiction is very bad.

It is not a fiction.   And fiction is not the same as imagination.

You can go as far as you can.

It is true.
