Ky Tran - A bit of everything

 Have you ever noticed that the adults, who once cared for you and played with you when you was a child, are now growing older and weaker? As you grow up, their time becomes shorter. I've realized this with my parents and relatives. Spend quality time with them, just as they did with you when you were little. That’s the greatest gift they could ever wish for.

Have you ever faced a problem so challenging that you felt completely stuck, unsure of what to do next? I have—more times than I can count. I used to spend endless hours trying to solve it, refusing to step away. But over time, I’ve learned that the best thing to do is take a break—walk away, rest, relax, and then come back with a fresh perspective. Surprisingly, the answer often becomes much clearer. Fascinating, isn’t it?  

 Lately, I’ve been getting a lot of phone scams—some through calls, others via text. I ignored all the calls, but the texts caught my attention. It’s fascinating how creative scammers can be in crafting different scenarios to deceive people. If only they put that effort into something productive, society would be much better off.  

I’m having a hard time finding music to enjoy. The newer artists don’t really connect with me—nothing against them, they’re just not my style. But replaying the same old songs has started to feel stale after a while. Now that I’m middle-aged, I’m stuck in a musical rut. Old-school artists, I need you—please release more music!

 I took a short vacation last weekend, escaping to the mountains to immerse myself in nature. Though the trip was brief, it was absolutely worth it. I stayed in a cozy cabin, spent quality time with family, went hiking, and even enjoyed horseback riding. Despite lasting only three days, I returned feeling completely refreshed. Whenever you’re feeling down, stressed, or overwhelmed, take a break. Surround yourself with nature and the people you love—you’ll come back feeling renewed and ready to take on life again.
