In the month of May, I spent most of the month in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City), Vietnam. Being born and raised in Vancouver, Canada; I often took things for granted just like any other privileged person born in a first world country.
After this perspective change - I found myself reverting back to my trip - thinking how grateful I should be and all the things I do complain about - I shouldn't have. Even though I didn't grow up the most 'well-off' it was definitely more 'well-off' in comparison if I were to live in Vietnam.
I documented my entire trip and my thoughts and feelings being an overseas Asian-Canadian returning home as well as
discover, and explore a part of myself that connected certain pieces of my life together.
3 Things:
Live life day-to-day.
Don't focus on the long term although it's good to have goals and accomplish them also be present.Stop complaining.
You know how lucky you are to have the ability to chose a job you want? You know how lucky you have it to have a
house with running water and food to eat?Cherish your family.
People get old, and your family is no exception. No matter they did to you, or you don't have a strong relationship - it's never too late to visit them because they won't be there forever.
