ah ... if Hmong proverbs can talk
Kao-Ly
I am looking for some proverbs - Hmong proverbs- to publish in my
website. Are you in good humor to share some with me? It will cost to
you ... of course ... nothing.
Thanks

share with you many that I have. How much are you willing to pay for
each? Let me share one with you.
"Yuav ntov ntoo yuav tsum saib ceg qhuav." Literally, "Before chopping
down a tree, you must watch out for its dry branches." Meaning:
"Before you attack someone, look and see if he had any higher powers
or relatives who might get back at you."
If you agree to pay for them,let me know here and we'll e-mail each
other about what's next. :)

talents"?), they should have manifested in about 18 more years. In the mean
time, there are a lot of very talented young, typical Hmong -- both here in
cyberspace and in the "real" world -- offering their real "Hmong talents."
As an anthropologist, you must be more than an accidental feature of the
culture, surely!
If or when you've secured some funding for an honest to Saub,
Hmong-ethnographic-film project, do let me know. I'll volunterr to carry
the batteries and extra camera equipments! I'm pretty good at spotting bad
editing, too, so I can even try to help view or make suggestions on some of
the rough editing.

P.S. Your English has improved much over the past two years. Unfortunately,
the same thing can't be said about mine! ;o)

No chance, No, NO ... my dear. Traveling requests more than passions
or courage, travel requires a whole set of dreams and lifestyle. And
you did never reach your goal ... so stay where you are.
For my English, I have to say that ... while some of the people are
sleeping, some others are climbing mountains. That is the secret.

Ohohohoho,,,
Glad to know not only Hawj Lauj's narcissism, even in semi-state of
homelessness, perpetually UNDER-estimates his proclivity toward hyperboles
and pseudo intellectualizing!
Insofar as never reaching a "goal," Dr. Nkau Hli, as an apolaustic, I seek
pleasure where it is found!
The rest is just sound and fury signifying nothing.
(Is that GRAY POUPON across my balding forehead, Doctor Nkauj Hli?! --But,
hey, being one level-headed and mature guy at the young age of "32"
[mentally stuck there for life, as Mai Na said], I can dig that, too!)
But, seriously, be extra careful on your "vertical" climbing activities.
Sheer cliffs and precipitousness, I've heard, can be hazardous to the
health, especially when one slips, stumbles, or falls.
Perpetually mistaking little hills for big mountains, I've heard, can also
be dangerous.

I am going to reflesh them and put them in my website:
www.geocities.com/kaoly_y/KaolyYangHome.html
Please, feel free to email me for any other idea! I see that many
people in this SCH like me, maybe, some would not be able to live
without my departure of this forum (he he ... of course, when I am not
too much busy, I will come to say "HELLO"); finally, I am happy that
my topics, a little bit challenging, caught many beautiful minds of
participants of this SCH, which made SCH get back to its creativity
and freedom of opinion, critic skills, ...
Whatever you said, will say, do not forget that we all will live
together, and need to keep oneself with humulity so that life after
SCH will be easy ... .
Bon Voyage.

C'est dommage que tu sois perdue dans le passe. Moi, je suis toujours

Right now I cannot say whether or not I have found what it was I was
looking for. Perhaps I have found more than I expected, perhaps I have
found nothing. I cannot tell you right now. In truth, I have not
succeeded in articulating what it is I am looking for, but I know that
when I have found it, it will reveal itself to me. What I seek cannot
be articulated in human words; it must be felt with the mind, sensed
with the heart, and observed with the eyes.

First,
What if we are already dead. We're all dead souls or dying energy
living in a 3 deminsional halogram world, trying to find out how we
died. What we did right or wrong, experiencing it all over again. We
don't know it or realize it because we are part of the light, part of
the halogram. When get to the point of our death, that is when
everything will be revealed to us.
Second,
What if we are spirits and soul, a weak energy of light, living in
human host. The divine plan with a start and ending date. The plan is
for us to come to earth to experience life, emotion, and see if we
would stray from God. The divine plan will end in 2012. When our solar
system will alight with our galaxy. It will be the end of the
contract.
