Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
try not to lose the sense of reality
ABOUT ME
Studying philosophy to have a better understanding of literature and eventually, human spirit. Working hard to keep the balance of reading, thinking and travelling. Willing to understand complicated things but trying to keep a simple heart. Having the nostalgia for a past/lost world or a world that never existed.
PHILOSOPHY
The hardest and farthest but most beautiful and exquisite journey is to understand another human heart.
