This is my photo to join the photo contest #goldenhourphotography on this Sunday.
I took this photo in the first few days I go to other country, not Vietnam. When I took it, I felt so happy to be lived here because of fresh air, a lot of trees and flowers, and I could see the sunset everyday after I finish the dinner while walking. Actually that was exactly what I expected when I worked and lived and studied in Hanoi. I really needed a place to relax at the end of the day, but there are not too many places like in Hanoi.
But everything is changed. In Vietnamese, we have a poetry sentences that is quoted from "Truyện Kiều" of Nguyen Du: "Người buồn cảnh có vui đâu bao giờ " It means that when you feel upset, you cannot enjoy any scenery even though they are so gorgeous, attractive. This sentence is exact true to me. Because other environments here are not good as I expected. I am stuck myself in it. So I change my mind, change my habit. I no longer to keep taking photos here even they are a plenty of beautiful view in each of seasons. I no longer hunter the sunset after dinner, I no longer to find some lovely leaves, small flower to take a shot. I miss Hanoi, I miss Vietnam. I accept the environment there is not as good as here. But Hanoi give me inspiration for me do what I want, what I love and I live and enjoy here so much. That is life I want.
