Things I notice …
- You have to keep learning and pushing to learn all sorts of things. This is useful when you meet your siblings and cousins or parents to debate. The person with the most layered mind wins and controls the family towards peace and growth and with a future worth fighting for.
- I used to be hesitant and wait to be talked to and respond neutral or follow along. I would just listen. After socializing with Tammy Nguyen for years then I realized life is layered and evolving. The most smartest people are very layered.
- The more you socialize with people that want to converse and add to the conversation for growth, you then grow many new layers and have a sense of community and bond. Eventually evolving the conversation to more dimensions.

When I was studying healthcare it was a combination of care and culture. The person with the most culture would dictate health and balance.
But in the real world outside the classroom the ‘good’ Western culture with its music, sports and way of life dictates how to live well.
Then that would mean the most ‘good’ Westernized person would dictate health and activities to do.
As a Vietnamese person born in Canada at 35 years old at the time, I had experience. I finished young adult growth and was pursuing a life of routine in 2019.
But I had no idea how to grow beyond. I even did not peak during young adulthood …
I did not have a Western culture in my blood really. I did not understand myself really. I took a step back and went to do programming to realize the missing pieces. Push towards Western external validation I guess.
Over the years I learned to program the Vietnamese way.
I learned Vietnamese culture.
I learned grit and resilience.
I learned to pursue my passion. I learned to grow and keep growing. Grow as a Vietnamese person.
What did I realize? It was mainly keeping busy. I was keeping busy at old age because there was nothing left to do or learn but just push to see more and do more at 35+.
Then I realized it was all maths. It was physics and coding to reach higher.
Then I realize it was doing your passions, creating, creating more with your friends and then it was just refactoring. Refactoring to build efficiency and better structure and adding more features.
It was to keep doing this and seeing this as normal.
Everyone reaches this point when they get so old so that is why your parents are still your parents when you are 60 and they are 80 still caring for you.
People your age or younger are lost in space and figuring life day-by-day. While people older see you as a child fumbling around.
That is the problem too. Working with people the same age range is problematic with ego, growth and struggle. There has to be someone smarter to helm and give open questions to grow and be well.
That is just life.
At the end civilization and cultures that are advanced just have a solid infrastructure and keep at improving projects.
You can learn from everyone and add to it.

I socialize and realized some people in my age range have health problems. Some have pretty bad health problems.
Then I realized I used to have similar health problems in 2018 while working my technician job.
Then I realized the amount of layers and learning could be a problem.
When I am doing computer programming, I am always growing.
Just doing a bit of coding, I am learning.
The complexity goes sky high and continues to go farther.
When I was working before programming, I had ill health because life was less. Life circled around people and their biases and ego and stagnation. Lots of complaining about people and not themselves. People caused problems for themselves and others.
The workers that constantly grew beyond everyday conversations had the best health.
When I am doing projects like Sophia, I have the best health.
