The Quiet Vietnamese

1–13 of 13
The Buddha said: "Life is a sea of misery." 

But everyday life is not always "miserable" as we mistakenly thought.

Is that because Vietnamese people are too innocent and communicative, constantly trying to avoid conflict of interest, even the smallest? 

Conflict of interest never disappears in human society. In the short run, evading the plane truth can make our minds at peace, but in the long run, it accidentally put ourselves on the same path that led to 'explosion,' which eventually transforms quasi-immaterial disputes into violence, and therefore, promotes accumulative hatred from one generation to another. 

"The reason it needs such a change in quality is the fact that communicativeness - which is considered, among other characteristics, unique and sustainable value in the Vietnamese traditional culture - has been formed and developed based on mechanical collectivism rather than on the level of consciousness."

As such, "The Quiet Vietnamese's" motto goes:

'Refresh ourselves with hands-on experiences.'

Several Vietnamese understand that to 'refresh ourselves with hands-on experiences' is necessary but not all of them know how to 'be living with floods,' or how to promote team work. 

Initially, I created "The Quiet Vietnamese" as a personal project, trying to figure out how we could 'be living with floods.' This is a place where any one can freely share their passions, interests, or personal views that are not extremists on any fields, including but are not limited to politics and religion. 

Any member, if interested, can become a manager here in "The Quiet Vietnamese." 

"The Quiet Vietnamese" is not against any persons, nation-states, or non-state actors.
