BS, I think you are asking, "Should I take chances?" You don't take changes, you make changes. However, your little recording was very good, and hearing your confident voice explains why you are turning out such good essays. You have a good command of the English language.

A little more time spent reading a few decent books should expand your range considerably.

Well done.

Kitos.

You have great voice. Ok here's my take on this subject. In my opinion, I think it depends on individual personality as well as age which can shape the former over the course of one's life. In other words,people in general, tend to be less adventurous when they get older. The cause of this, is probably be they wanted to live peaceful life rather than putting themselves in uncertain situation. That being said, like I said earlier, it also depends on individual personality. Some young people may be less adventurous than older generation and be more content with what they have. Some may be overly zealous and don't ruminate long enough to see what consequences would ensue and do on the whim. And also, I think, satisfaction level is not written in the stone. It can change throughout your life. Let's say, you have a desire to become a doctor. You may think you will fully satisfy once you reach your goal. But it may not be and you may want to set up another goal and want to become the best in Vietnam. Well, that's my thought. You are welcome to disagree.

@ Kitos: Thank you so much. BTW, could you please give me a recommendation of which book I should choose. I have some books like "Pride and Prejudge" or "Jane Eyre" but to tell you the truth that it does not attract me much because I found it is kind of hard to follow. There are some sentence complex in structure and complicated vocabulary that I can not understand. Could you give me some name. I will try it on.
@ Bulone: Thank for your message. You are excellent in English. They way you protect your opinion is very impressive. But there are some points that I disagree. please listen to the message and give me some comment, also please correct my mistake if possible :-). Thank you so much

Good evening BS. Well the books that I read are not really suitable for an English newbie. However the grammar is very good, as are the short stories. The short stories will both entertain you and avoid getting you too bogged-down.

I'll send you a PM with the titles.

Kitos.

Hi Black,
I think you getting my idea wrong. I agree with you on the fact that some individuals, like yourself, would take steps to change their lives when they feel discontent with current situation. But that doesn't necessarily mean other would do the same thing. It would be ignoring the obvious if we don't take those people into account,for some reasons, who doesn't do what needs to be done to improve their life. Could be their lack of confidence or their laziness. Or it could be because they feel content with what they are in. People are different from one another. Not all people have courage like yourself. I'm just stating that they are different. :)

May I just add, life is what we make it, whatever chance, or changes we may want to do, the bottom line is we have to prepare ourselves of the consequence of our decision... just sharing some thoughts :D

[Blackswallow]

Hi, Mahazel, I am very impressed by your confident voice. Then I found out that you are an English teacher.:-). Regarding to our topic, you are absolutely right, we have to prepare ourselves for the consequences of our decision.

Hi, Blackswallow, thank you for the comment. "Maraming Salamat."

Life is the name of struggle. without take changes in it we cannot go ahead. it is just like that in nature we come across the green leaf turn into golden one but still maintain the glory in the form of experience. Similarly, in one's life changes either are brought or taken; enhances one's struggle. Change is another name of challange which must be accepted otherwise we shall lose the real charm of life. Thanks :lol:

Hi Naz, I just love your little writing. You must have a soul of an artist to make this lovely and beautiful message. What a pity I could not hear your voice (do not know why your message become something "...zzziiiii...", so I can not hear it :-) ).
