Actually, I already reached 60 back in January but only this morning that I finally realized it. As I finally feel the aches from a 2-hour hiking this morning, strangely enough but I didn't feel like this when I was hiking in Ninh Binh for a whole week. A Lunar New Year this time is officially a starting point of my years in the 60s. Damn it, time is running short on me, and obviously this is a beginning of a downhill run. It can't be good!

Well, it has to be a more suitable lifestyle to live on during and after the 60s as I am thinking of it right now, but I still don't know what mine is going to be. If you are still in your 50s, do you think of your foreseeable 60s?

An old man who still loves listening to love songs, now that is weird, but I can't change that. You would love it too if you could feel how I felt at the moment, walking on a path at a remote place, a beautiful scenery and a lovely song that touches you. All that combined in such a moment of time.



紅塵有你 - Hồng Trần Có Anh

我心的 空間
是你走過以後 的深淵
我情的 中間
是你留下雪泥 夢和夢的片段
我夢的 裡面
是場流離失所 的演變
我淚的 背面
依然留著一面 等你的天
紅塵有你 就有我無悔的泥
隨人間風雨 遷徙
怨不了無情 天地
那蒼天 從不曾改變
留給我 寂寞的誓言
走過人間 千百回天涯
又回到 深情的原點
那歲月 再怎麼摧殘
我的心 不會怕永遠
因為夢和愛 不會忘記
紅塵有你 紅塵有你

Chào anh Duy, you look so awesome!!!
Anh nói tấm hình này là anh đã 60 thật đó hả? Anh nhìn còn trẻ hơn tuổi đó rất nhiều. Nhìn như là anh chỉ mới hơn 40 thôi hà. Xin lỗi anh, tôi rất dở khi viết chữ English, tôi sợ tôi viết nhiều thì sẽ sai văn phạm và chính tả và sẽ làm cho anh không hiểu ý tôi muốn nói gì nên tôi mới viết bằng chữ Việt như vậy, chắc anh không ngại đâu phải không?

No, Ms. I can read Vietnamese just fine, so it doesn't matter to me if you would write in Chinese, English or Vietnamese.

As we already knew that aging is an inevitable physical deteriorating process, it really doesn't matter how we would look right now, because it will come to the worst part of it soon enough.

Please, don't mind it as you might not understand why I said that or for what I said. I meant what I said sincerely, no harm intention.

I can literally foresee myself becoming someone like him, an old man sitting next to a riverbank, spending an afternoon under a shaded branch from old aged tree with its whiskers hanging in the breath. Probably without a pair of shinning shoes and more likely a different type of hat, and I would more likely be napping most of the time. He seems happy and conversational even toward a stranger. He is 63.

You're in a good shape for 60t

Duy, you're looking good for 60... Duy co the cho tui xin tam hinh "Dragon w/flowers" > "Ninh Binh Trip" thks

Smugmug has the option for you to buy your favourite pic. It is on the right corner below the print.

Happy belated birthday! You do look young for an old man!

Thanks for the compliment dear! I think merely going by the look can be very deceiving, especially for a smoker. See that those 100 something steps going up to the top of the hill in the photo there? It took me like an hour and half to get to the top, but then an 30s something man told me that it took him about 45 minutes, which is only half of my time.

Sure, by all means, spinner. Please feel free to download if it permits you to do so. Or like Ms. Greenfield mentioned, I believe you can order a printout of it too if you wish. Let me know if neither of the options work for you. Why, were you born in the year of dragon?

Do you have a favorable photo of your choice from this album?

Thank you Sir! To be honest, the shaving from the day before really did the magic. I look much older with the facial hairs.

mới đó mà bác Duy đã 60 rồi chúc bác sức khoẻ dồi dào để mỗi bước đi trên hành trình của bác thêm tươi đẹp LD ko nhận ra bác rồi nhé

Yes, dear.. all those years had gone too, too fast! Duye^n tinh minh phai -doi kiep sau roi, Co^ Duye^n..

If you must know, dear.. perhaps the real secret is living a simple life, walking a little more, avoid the unpredictable womanly troubles, and simply love life a little more for whatever will bring.
