shadow of the street moon
so cold in the quiet of my breath
lonely shoes too noisy in the dark
i am tired for a rest
two poems in a coffee
one secret between you and me
our love is like water
murmuring in the middle of the night
莊子說:
★天地與我並生
★萬物與我為一
★ The Heavens are with me
and so does everything in
the Universe

9203 How to choose between the powers? 20190601
It is not easy for the smaller countries to choose, or to take sides. Every one must have the best tactic to survive between the whales. You are just like a small boat swimming beside the big whales. They are crushing each other and you are in between of them.
Can you simply slip away?
Everyone is looking upon the late leader of Singapore. He had the best tactic.
And he would not tell you in his books.
Many had read three or four times of his great book. But you have to read behind not the lines, but the inner motion of his deeds.
If I were him, I would do it this way.
I will go to the Western powers and tell them, I will have a method to contain China for you. Let me do the talking and you will do the rest.
Then I will go to talk with the Chinese leaders. I will be friend of China. I will tell them the techniques of the Western way to run the Government, tell them how to build their economy.
I am the only one who claimed to be friend of China and still trusted by the West.
I am not swimming between the whales. I am riding on them and manipulate them.
With such a method, I will stay rich for 50 years and no more.
And it is temporary tactic only.
You need not to know which of the powers is truly rich and more importantly, truly reliable. It is so simple and you need not an idea so simple. Even though you have the lucky chance to stay away the crushing danger, but still, what you need is to know the inner turth about them.
You need to know not how rich they are, but how did they come to such a state. You need not to know who is going up and who is going down, but the real difficulties in them.
Yes China is going up, but there are inner difficulties. And the US is getting down, but they will remain a great power for a time longer than you can expect.
Can you tell me more ?

9202 How did the confrontation started? 20190526
The first condition is that you need to have two balanced powers to face each other. Otherwise, it is not confrontation, but conquest. Not balanced powers can hardly compete with each other.
Since when did China become such a big power to face the West? Some would say it was in 1978, it was by that time, China had had a chance to be rich in a short time.
It was only by then that China had become a real threat to the eyes of some people.
They simply cannot see the real motivation of China. They can never understand the real aim of China.
China had tried every means to avoid confrontation with the US. But why?
We need to go back to the starting point to see the situation.
Since the ancient time, the Chinese were seeing things from inside, while their Western counterparts chose to see it from outside.
And then they have different tools.
The Chinese used bamboo to write down their most important findings, while the Egyptians whom the US people inherited were using stone.
Can a piece of stone last longer or bamboo? The answer is bamboo. You can copy many times until the findings were in your memory or your culture; while the Egyptians could only leave the stones to the sun.
With stones the Western people found alphabet, which was important for the left brain; with bamboos the Chinese found another special way to mark the words which was a tool for the right brain. And that leads to different ways, one seeing things from outside while the other see things from within.
Thousands and thousands of years had lapsed and now the different methods were still not balanced. The Chinese had simply found the western external way easier to make money.
The introverts were never as competitive as the Western extroverts. To balance the two, I guess, need more time. And I cannot tell would it be hundreds or thousands of time needed.
The confrontation here is not real confrontation of different culture, but powers only.
The Chinese had chosen the methods of the West, while their manner defers. The Chinese are not eager to conquer like the Romans. To conquer is a manner, but the way to see the nature of the world, is a method. It is difficult to comprehend, but our readers are wise. To make a phone is a method, to make war is a manner.
The Chinese had tried desperately to avoid confrontation. Maybe they knew from their inner sense that this confrontation is meaningless. Their aim is simple. They wish to have a chance to share the cultures with the West.
They hope to live happily together, work together and get rich together, with everyone.
The Chinese will not lose the battle, anyway.
As we can see, the inner wisdom of China had not been fully developed. Up till now, human wisdom is to see the world from outside only.
If by one day, we can see the truth of human beings from both inside and outside, it will be a time of real fortune for everyone. And the real confrontation, if there will be any, will be more meaningful.

9201 Whatever will be, will it be ? 20190525
China has walked its path for at least 5000 years. United States has no less. US is the successor of the Western Culture; they are same with the Greeks and Romans. They are the heir of a great culture which seems more advanced than the Chinese.
We can see huge plates were forming like the Earth's crust. China has come into being through numerous breakdowns and re-compositions. However, The Chinese Culture has one big setback that made them lacking behind.
They are mostly introverts and right-brain oriented. The design of the whole Chinese Culture was a kind of organizations like a living being. Being introverts and being right-brain oriented were not a setback, but the lack of self-realization is. They have very good language and very good knowledge about the Universe and the human body, however, they had not study enough about that. The Chinese medicine and its practice could bring in huge profit globally yet the Chinese were not investing enough for a huge success.
What they are choosing is the same method of the West. They were trying everything in an external way. They are observing the Universe in an external eye.
That means, the two large piece of Earth curst were merging together in a similar pattern. The Chinese has said they will not be another America. However, we can see that they are making another 5G phone which is similar to the 4G.
And it is very advantageous for the Chinese. It is because, for an introvert to learn things from an external view is easy, while it is very difficult for extroverts to see things internally.
Whatever will be, will be. Will the two pieces of Earth's crust melt together peacefully or not?
The only answer is, things will happen.

9200 Will there be a war between US and China ? 20190520
Sincere people hope that politicians will use their mental power to avoid a war. But I doubt that. As we have not been evolved enough. It must be very high consciousness to make that decision. They will not choose the option to live happily together with one and other in the present time.
There will be war.
Before the war, they will try to dry up each other.
Though the chance for Military War is slim, but it cannot be neglected.
They will try other option. A Cheap War is more powerful than the Trade war. The Trade War is false, but the Cheap War is real.
China had very limited control over the media in Taiwan and Hong Kong. The Cheap War tactics were so successful there, the younger generation are so confused, that the situation is full of crises.
A successful Cheap War will lead to Military War.
The Trade war will be over very soon. Business leaders are well aware of that. A fortune is there waiting for clever people now, at least, before the unwanted Military War happens.

9199 How can you know China is much stronger? 20190916
Napoleon had tried to beat Russia. Now the same is with President Trump. I had said some times ago, that Trump is very similar with Napoleon. Their personality are very much the same. Even the way they talk and the manner they treat others, were similar.
Russia is strong not only in their vast land, but in the Russian mind. It is not easy to name someone who is greater than Tolstoy and Peter the Great.
Can a small army general like Napoleon understand that? If Napoleon can be a little wiser, he would not be end up so tragically. What Napoleon can see is his temporary power, which was limited in his army which was in his own eyes, a mighty army.
What he could not see was the unseen.
Yes we must put the unseen into consideration. It was same with the US and China. If they can foresee the unseen, they will be better off.
Yes China is much stronger. Much stronger than anyone can expected.
However, China is also very weak. They are weak in the unseen also. In that case, President Trump can be sure about himself more, if he really knows what is going on.

9198 What is bully? 20190506
First, the one who bullies others is a coward, and a failure. He cannot compete with those who is many times better than him, he could only choose the tactic to bully. It is only natural response from a weak person.
A weak person is happy to see anyone who is weaker than him. He would bully the weak just to show his is superior. He has got nowhere to show his superiority, he can only bully the weak.
And sometimes he would see someone who is deeply stirring for him. He knew he could never compete with such person. What can he do?
He can form a circle of friends just to isolate the one he envies. That is why talented people are always lonely, they are the target of bullying. Many of them are beaten or ill treated by their peers.
Now the US is trying to bully China. They have trade war, and cheap wars for China.
It is interesting to see the final outcome.

9197 What is the weakest point of China? 20190505
China is like a tree; it is an internally organized country, while the US is externally built.
What is the weakest point in a tree?
Some believe that a tree is strong. They believe trees would never die.
However, we must use some reasoning power to ponder about this.
The weakest point of a tree is that it can never change itself.
Can a tree turn itself into a fish?
Or can a fish change itself into a bird?
No way. Though ancient philosopher Zhuang Zi had pointed out that a big fish can change into a big bird long ago. But I doubt 0.01 percent of the Chinese people had read about that. And my books have got very few readers. They are give away items, I cannot publish them.
All external items could be excluded from the body of a tree. Though I think my books are not external. Cells in a tree are always cells for a tree. You will not find a birds cell in a tree, though birds did build their home on a tree.
External system is another story. You can keep many things in a brick house. And you can change. You can build something else whenever you feel like. You can build a ship, a plane, or anything else to live in.
External things can change, while internal things cannot.
