I really enjoy reading your newsletter each week, Dr. Lloyd! Always thoughtful and refreshing. It also made me smile to see some of the friends I recommended joining SET.

I loved the bird story. When I was in Florida, I saw so many beautiful birds I couldn’t name. Now in Washington State, I often see robins. My husband once found a tiny empty eggshell in our backyard. Just imagining the little bird flying off to explore the world makes me happy. Watching birds gives me a quiet moment during work, almost like a mental reset.

Also, I really appreciated the Chinese characters 謝謝 and 多謝. Personally, there is no difference between the two. They both mean thank you in traditional Chinese. In mainland China where I grew up, we usually use simplified Chinese. So 謝謝 becomes 谢谢 (which I use a lot), and 多謝 becomes 多谢. Same meaning, just fewer strokes :)
