The Streetlamp and the Moon – Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm

The Harvest Moon

The Streetlamp and the Moon

Trăng và đèn đường

The streetlamp annoyed with the moon
– Why can’t you stay put
Be vigilant and stand still
Like I do all night

The moon consoling
– I might look like I’m playing
But I never stop, I’m constantly circling
To light up the world.

Antidote to the Venom of Poisonous Hatred | More Enigma Than Dogma

We are all the same! – Silent Songs of Sonsnow

“It’s good to remember that other human beings are like us. We are born the same way; we die the same way. While we’re alive it’s better to be able to trust each other as friends. We earn other people’s trust when we show a genuine concern for their well-being.”

His Holiness the great 14th Dalai Lama

The experts found that there is a substantial decrease in the risk of death from COVID-19 following vaccination. However, they also found evidence that this protective effect diminishes after six months.
