Feelings Sandwich
At home, I am constantly in a situation between my elder child and younger child, or between my wife and my two children.
At work, we may experience the similar Sandwich feelings with colleagues, managers, friends etc.
The news about "a confrontation between American and Chinese vessels in the South China Sea" made me ponder. I, Chinese American, am in a similar situation when I read the news.
I share a Q&A with all I posted in April, 2008 "Your Opinion: Patriotism ?"
We are often called by a few Chinese as "banana", [skin - yellow, inside - white].
Meanwhile, we are not trusted by majority non-Chinese.
By the way, I am Hakka born in Shanghai, now I label myself Global Citizen.
I responded to a friend of mine on LinkedIn for the news in the South China Sea... "From Chinese history, Chinese were not aggressive, correct me if I'm wrong."
My American friend replied: "I would never disagree with you on such a subject. But all great people evolve, or we would have no history. "
Here is a positive development "US committed to pursuing positive relationship with China".
Collaboration = Win-Win
Confrontation = lose-lose
Your thoughts ? Thank you !
