You should see me criticize Wuxi Expats.<br /><br />Complaining is one of the pleasures of life. Why should I stop because I may offend the overly-sensitive? But I am searching for truth, not popularity. If what I say is not true, I wish you should me it is so. Or provide a reason for my misunderstanding.<br /><br />I married for love and to redeem myself.<br /><br />As for "one of my own kind", I have no idea what you mean. That is a racist way of looking at things, it pains me, to say.wuxi andishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726482489913497129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5460763765741478786.post-53712299217685539812010-02-03T19:14:25.395-08:002010-02-03T19:14:25.395-08:00Thank you for taking the time to make a comment. ...Thank you for taking the time to make a comment. I see that it is the criticisms I make that get comments. <br /><br />If you want to really see me lash into people. You should have seen what my impressions of life in Canada. In Canada, I have been told I should move to America. In my home country, they say I am not one of them.<br /><br />Now, you say I am not of here.<br /><br />Oh well, I am only human. Think of me as an misanthrope.<br /><br />The comment about "cheating and skipping" is something that I have picked on from my wife who is Chinese. You should see her in her day to day dealings with all sorts...<br /><br />When I say that China has no soul, I am lamenting because there is a lot that the Chinese do, that we, unheathen, can learn from. Their students work hard. They still have the idea of respect for family. <br /><br />However, I don't feel I am in a country with 5,000 years of history. I don't feel it. Students tell me that the revival of their customs in China, though not lacking in form, is lacking in spirit.<br /><br />Be that as it may, criticism taken.wuxi andishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726482489913497129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5460763765741478786.post-57474072162974851052010-02-03T18:27:19.060-08:002010-02-03T18:27:19.060-08:00"The Chinese way seems to be cheat and skip s..."The Chinese way seems to be cheat and skip steps in a process.
