    It is said that it is the simple things that really matter. The system is designed to have us chasing material things of our choices & we do. In working towards the future we can sometimes forget to live in the present & enjoy & be grateful for the simple things we already have. Life also shows us that when we think we are in control & have got everything sorted out, in one moment things can change, everything can change. During that change is our real human experience. How we deal with that change can be our heaven or hell on earth, especially our resistance to it. These are just some thoughts that came to mind while listening to your video. Thanks again for sharing your journey brother

My wife's students loan has all been paid for because of me. On my last video, kids get all the good food while I eat noodles so we can afford to do all of this. Any music class, art class after school for the kids I pay for it. Family comes first before me.

    Khong I couldn't but help to notice that you shoot with all your l fingers below your arrow knock? You knocked the arrow because you have no finders on your arrow. There's less control on the arrow. I know a lot of target shooters shoot this way but not when hunting. Just some advise, no offense.

    you have to take in account the average monthly income in NZ is $2,982.76 the average monthly income in Thailand is $542.97 see the almost 6 times difference? so things are going to be more expensive in NZ shops because the workers have to be paid better and the workers have to pay more taxes, higher bills etc etc....that means the shops have to charge more money. of course $29 is going to get you a lot more in Thailand, it's called "currency conversion rate". i don't even know what the point of this video is to prove that you shouldn't already know.
