Just my thoughts #0526

If you can’t throw away what you have, you don’t own it properly. If you cannot leave the place you are staying, you are not entirely settled. Possession and non-possession share the same root, and wandering and settlement share the same root. There is no eternal state; we only enjoy a temporary state. It is often misunderstood that a state of possession for a moment is possession, and that a momentary absence is mistaken for wandering. The world changes, and you change too. Obsession and stubbornness will only hinder your change. If you know how to give up and leave at any time, the value of what you currently have and the state you are in will change significantly. Stability comes from sharing instability. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Traffic direction is influenced by history and traditions. What would occur if a country suddenly changed its travel direction? The costs of replacing road signs would be just the start; the nation would also need to revise traffic laws and control systems, leading to a higher frequency of accidents. Such a major change hasn’t occurred in any country since its inception. Globally, 165 countries have adopted right-hand drive (RHD), while 75 have implemented left-hand drive (LHD). Currently, 66% of the world’s population drives on the right, and 72% of all roads are right-sided. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
