Dear Newey,
I saw the article of your blog on CNN international online. You said "Life for me is a path or a journey. I know I'm going somewhere; I'm just not sure where exactly. I remember when I turned 25 I stopped thinking about the future and concentrated on today, since thinking about the future was like waiting for a day that would never actually come."
I would like to introduce you a book called "Zhuan Falun". You can buy it at a book store or download it from "www.FalunDafa.org" free of charge. It's translated into a lot of different languages including Thai. After you read that book, you'll find answers to all your questions in life that you could not find answers to. You will know where you are going and why you're walking that path. You will also find out a whole new side of yours and a whole new side of life that you never knew before. Happy reading.
