    You vlogs are always so comforting and even though I’ve only gone to China a few times to visit family you make it feel more familiar. Less of a place where I don’t know anything and more of a place where I could begin to learn. No rush with making videos! We’ll wait patiently for them no matter how long it takes. Take care of yourself! I hope your work gets better, or at the very least you get a lot of joy from the things you do outside of it

      Thank you so much…there’s so much to explore in China, and even as I grow more familiar with it there’s still more to see and to learn all the time..will keep exploring! Take care:)

      Wow, you are too beautiful whomever sees you shall believe that God is real, and whenever I see you I am always in a dream, and when we wake up we all will realize that all this life was nothing but a dream and that only God is whats true and real.
      I dont know how can atheists believe that such a very sexy very attractive beauty queen like you came from monkeys hahaha 😄
      There was a teacher whom didn't believe in the existence of God, He said to his students do you see God?,
      the students replied no we don't see God, so the teacher said if you don't see God it means there is no God,
      then a smart student stood up and said to the other students hey guys do you see the teachers brain?,
      then the students replied no we don't see the teachers brain, the student then said then the teacher is crazy he got no brain :0)
      عن الإمام علي "عليه السلام": عَجِبتُ لمن شك في الله، وهو يرى خلق الله
      Imam Ali, peace be upon him, said: I cant understand how a man-man/women-can doubt in the existence of God-/Allah-although he sees His creation.
      وعن الإمام علي "عليه السلام": عَجِبتُ لمن أنكر النشأة الأخرى، وهو يرى النشأة الأولى
      Imam Ali, peace be upon him, said: I cant understand how any one denies the second life although he/she seen the first life-this life is actually a living proof of both the existence of its creator, as well as a clear proof that indicates that another life in heaven or hell may also be a very possible chance as well-.
      وعن الإمام علي "عليه السلام": عَجِبتُ لعامر دار الفناء، وتارك دار البقاء Imam Ali, peace be upon him, said: I cant understand how any one inhabits this transient abode-and is
      so indulged in it-but ignores the everlasting hereafter abode,
      ​one God for all of us, all the universe shows unity with diversity, there are different things different creatures and different materials but are all made of particles and atoms
      ​Even if we will assume that there will not be an atom left of you after death, you still have proven as a created being that there is a Creator,you proved the existence of God even if you do not believe in God.
      ​God initiated everything, and he redo too, and it is evident.
      ​this life is temporary while the next is forever eternal either in paradise or burning in Hell fire
      good qualities are beneficial, and bad qualities are harmful
      Be good dont be bad and refrain from sins and obey God and worship him alone in the way he wants to be worshiped and you will be saved from Hell fire and will enter paradise and be happy forever
      ​Whoever does an atom’s weight of good will see it, and whoever does an atom’s weight of evil will see it,
      ​or may not see it if God pardons him/her and has mercy on him/her that's if he/she try's to fix what he/she has spoiled, in the right time,
      Also, when you give charity God protects you and blesses you with more good things in life or more money.
      A teaching from the prophet Mohammed may peace and blessings of God be upon his pure great soul and upon his great honorable progeny.
      Also, ​if you be bad to others you will hurt your own self too,
      likewise when you don't do what you should
      in the right time.
      & having faith in God makes you stronger
      and makes you have hope even when things become very difficult
      and even when you are weak.
      Another thing:
      ​Drinking alcoholic beverages damages the liver and the mind,
      & adultery is not good because it is not true love it is neglect to the lady and to the fetus, and brings sexual diseases.
      ​while marriage on the other hand, ok it has sex in it, but it is a relationship in which the woman and the fetus are cared for
      ​as for sodomy-same sex marriage-its bad not part of normal human life &it brings sexual diseases, &eating pork can bring cholesterol&some parasitic worms,
      ​Not cheating &gaining trust by being trust worthy and honest,
      &having good behavior,
      brings more money to you and is good for you in the next life too,
      These are some of the teaching of the prophet Mohammed
      ​The Messenger of God Muhammad is the most perfect human, and most intelligent man, his mind was the brightest mind,
      &he is the most merciful of all people, his heart was the biggest heart, but he was firm against every crime,
      ​&was the most just &kind, and taught every good, taught people to respect &love & care for each other,
      &for the female, &elder, &children, &to protect the innocent person regardless of what he/she believed,
      ​(If one of the polytheists seeks protection from you, then grant him protection) Holly Quran,
      &taught to either forgive the one who wronged you, or be just &fair when retaliating, or to shock the person and enslave his/her heart by being generous &kind.
      ​who to follow after the prophet?:
      Even if you may think that all the companions of the Messenger were
      always good and all of them are like mountains, despite everything that happened between them!!
      ​the Prophet said: “My family-daughter Fatima the lady of light the lady of heaven and Imam Ali and their great offspring's and special perfect chosen descendants-are like the ark-/ship-of Noah, whomever embarked on it survived, and whomever did not drowned and died.
      ​&We know that the son of Noah did not embark on the ark/ship of salvation, rather he climbed a mountain and drowned due to the very high tides and because he didn't follow God command. Don't be like him
      ​spread the light teach what's good &right its best for you and for all and better than letting the wrong things from wrong teachings or bad desires and ill mind happen, prevention is better than cure ,

    Thank you for sharing your life in Guangzhou, my family is from there but we never had the money or time to take me there. Seeing how different everything looks compared to the photos I grew up looking through really is nice (a little sad too since I'll never see the old and I'm a sucker for history), but it's really appreciated! Where was I going with this word vomit... well thank you so much for sharing!

    Life is definitely a journey . "What you get by achieving your goal is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals" ~ Zig Ziglar
    Guangzhou - the heat , humidity , and mosquitoes ! That would overwhelm me .
    Business is definitely all about risk and luck . Best of luck with the shop !

    Thanks for sharing your life in GZ. Was there a decade ago and definitely remember the (very) hot summer days. And sorry to hear that work is giving you some trouble. I don't know how Amazon is in China, but in the US it's got a pretty crappy reputation for its toxic work culture, especially the mistreatment of warehouse workers. But you've got such a rich personal life and such a strong support network that no matter what happens, you'll be okay.

    Wow, GZ…… land of great fresh food! Hope you will find what you are looking for in this lovely city and can anchor down instead of floating around. Shekou in Shenzhen (大湾区)is also somewhere you might wanna explore. It’s developing into a hub for east meet west with increasing Hong Kong youngster trying it out with central govt support.

    thank you for sharing life in guangzhou! I was born there but my parents immigrated to canada when I was a baby. I feel really disconnected from china even though I can speak cantonese (learned from my parents). There's almost no way for westerners (including me) to get a glimpse into life in china, it's all politics and painting chia in a bad light over here. Other asian countries are able to share and romanticize their cultures, while china is left in the dark. I'd love to visit again as an adult some time soon!!

    • @tapiocapress
      @tapiocapress  Рік тому

      Ahh thank you so much for sharing...I agree that it's so hard to get a glimpse of real life in China on the internet...happy to share whatever I can in this tiny corner here:) I hope you'll get to visit soon now that travel to China has finally reopened!

      I grew up in Australia. So I considered myself Western too. Now that the West keeps accusing China of Cultural genocide, I know this term and have realised it’s happened to me but by Australia. I’m not angry or upset about it nor do I expect things to change…I understand that’s the result of growing up in another country but it just highlights the irony and double standards.
      I live in Hong Kong so supposedly I’m oppressed by the CCP…if you can already feel there is something wrong with the way they report on China. Wait until you come here. You’ll realise you’ve been propagandised to believe China is bad. This has to, by extension, affect what you think about yourself…come to China. You won’t regret it.
