There are lots of confusing things about life, and the reason why life is so confusing is because there is no manual book for life. You don’t get one manual book when you were born. There is no instruction to teach you how to live your life.
I ended up having to listen to what other people telling me to do. People started giving me whatever instruction they think is good, but are these instructions suitable for me? I don’t know. After all finally I get to have a chance to figure out my life. But there is no manual book at least for reference.
Life is so hard, and the worst part is that there is no manual book for it. I am really tired of life.

The other day I was sitting in the shop and there was an Indian girl came in with her mother, out of curiosity, I asked her what was the red dot between Indian woman’s eyes. She told me the spot is called “married spot”, when the girl is married the husband puts the red dot between the bride’s eyes.
“It’s also called ‘kum kum’!”She smiled.
“So what does that mean?” I asked.
“It means ’sin door’! What do you want to know this for?”
“I just love to learn things from different culture!”
After she went, I sit at the counter and thought of what she told me. Sin door. The position is a very special point to a lot of religion or spiritual practice. It’s definitely a door, but in their culture they call it “sin door”. So when the Indian husband put the red dot for the bride, is he opening the sin door, or closing the sin door?
