I have lived in Japan for more than 30 years. I feel despair whenever I go back to my home country.

    Hello Fiora..i find myself nodding my ahead as i too have left Singapore for Australia:)
    I missed Singapore in the first few years but after 20 + years, i feel a little out of place whenever i visit..people feel as if they are very stressed a lot of the time...and i long to go back to big, wide open spaces and my garden and the beach..
    Only thing i miss now is my family and the food haha!
    All the best!😀

      Hi! Thank you for commenting! I am so glad you resonated with me😍 I also miss the food so I try to go back whenever I can. Since we are both living abroad for many years we may have many things in common 😊

    I found myself listening along again... and I can imagine how your present life contrasts with those back in Singapore. But it is not about numbers is it? It is about quality of life, actually being free enough to experience it and say hello to 'our' friend the heron... Not so much about worrying about the future but living the moment, living movement by movement. For the future takes care of itself... and will take care of you in ways you have never imagined. People today in the material world seem predisposed to think of the worst and live 'that' fearful existence daily and even more so into their nightmare future, creating that terrible place, not just for them but for those around them. So you have learnt to hold on loosely; let go tightly. And 'that' is something worth sharing, I feel. I think you will find many people who resonate with that. I do!

    Very interesting video it’s very similar for me in the US/Japan. But I think family is the most important thing and being able to travel once in awhile and being healthy is a blessing.

    You must know Japan's economy and standard of living have been destroyed "on purpose". Japan was once a rich country. It's been destroyed just like the US, UK, Germany, etc. Singapore has not been targeted for destruction. Not yet.

    Thankyou for your video, @LittleMerlion-bd6bw. It is not you, but rather your friends in Singapapore who have missed out on something - like having friends who value you for who you are rather than for how much money and status you possess.
