"Ask" in Chinese - Don't Make This MISTAKE!

Most learners don’t struggle with English — they struggle with the version of themselves they were taught to be.

In this episode, “Man in Search for Himself,” we uncover the hidden identity traps created by schools, teachers, and society that silently limit your voice, confidence, and communication under pressure.

If you’ve ever felt small in meetings, frozen in interviews, or judged for your mistakes — this episode will feel like oxygen.

You’ll discover why your fear isn’t a flaw… it’s a script. And scripts can be rewritten.

👉 Listen now and start unlearning the limits that were never yours.
👉 If this episode resonates, send me a message on italki with one insight — I’ll personally guide you to your next breakthrough.

“The Pro Behind the Words” - You don’t need new words. You need the REAL YOU who speaks them.

Chinese Finals:aoe

It's been a while since I posted something. Happy 2023! 

I recently watched The Glory and am currently watching My Name on Netflix. They are similar because both of the lead characters are seeking revenge. 

It got me thinking.

Since two wrongs don't make a right, should we always be the bigger person and show mercy?

To forgive and forget?
To forgive but never forget?

Or

An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.

Is there a limit to what we can put up with as humans? What do we do if someone crosses that line?

It was fascinating and I am enjoying My Name so far. I will watch the final episode tonight and post my thoughts after that. 

(A little disclaimer: they are both disturbing so do not watch either of them if the nature of the show is something you are sensitive to.)

《是妈妈是女儿》is a song performed on Spring Festival Gala, which is called the most moving performance.
--------------------------------------------------
《是妈妈是女儿》
【妈妈】我的孩子啊
我不知道自己做得够好吗
我是第一次做妈妈
尽管岁月已吹白我的头发
送你上学第一天
要你勇敢 我却哭了
后来你每回离家挥手说走啦
当告别已变得轻松
可我的心还会空
【女儿】亲爱的妈妈
我不知道自己做得够好吗
我是第一次做女儿
可也是第一次来做我
离开家的那天车开之后偷偷哭了
我不想让你担心 笑着挥手呢
人长大不轻松
我后来才知道
【妈妈】孩子会穿过大雨
去懂人间的道理
我只能唠叨因为我已帮不上你了
【女儿】妈妈会留在童年
给我打很多电话
说院子的花开了
我先挂了 地铁上
【妈妈】早上吃饭了吗
按时睡觉了吗
原谅我 只懂这样参与你生活
【女儿】可我都没做得到所以不说话
【妈妈】吃饭了吗
【女儿】不想对你撒谎啊 又怕你难过
【妈妈】累不累啊
【女儿】匆匆挂了电话后
【妈妈、女儿】发现我是那么地想念你啊
【妈妈】我的孩子啊
我不知道自己做得够好吗
放手如果是一门功课
妈妈一生没考过
【女儿】没有按时吃饭
忙碌不是我的错
如果让你知道 却会令我很愧疚
你的嘘寒问暖 我知道是为我好的
但又让我觉得 我不曾被信任着
【妈妈】不担心的人啊 一定不做妈妈
我知道全知道 可是我心疼啊
【女儿】请放心让我前往属于我的人生吧
你那么勇敢善良 我很像你就不怕
【妈妈】有一天你也会成为一个妈妈
【女儿】那一天我们会深深地拥抱吗
【妈妈、女儿】像溪水环游世界
拥抱回它出生的河流
我希望你被爱着
我希望你要快乐
我希望我的双手可以为你挡着风
我知道爱会争吵
我知道人会变老
所以那一句爱你一定要大声地说
列车会准点吗
路上有吃的吗
到家后不管几点饭都会热着
穿过妈妈的目光离家的小巷
快到了吗
穿过拥挤的车厢回忆的滚烫
门开着呢
穿过温柔的时光
有你的地方我就有路回家
回家吧
【妈妈】我的孩子啊
我不知道自己做得够好吗
但有件事我非常确定
你是最好的女儿
请相信自己
