Lost in Translation

This is the time of year when numerous outlets (newspaper, evening news, etc.) offer helpful tips to avoid the heat and enjoy the summer. Well, this morning, the management office of the community we live in brought us the monthly newsletter, which, among other things, included “Tips for Summer”:

1. Eating less and more meals
2. Taking bath in worm water
3. Drinking more water
4. Avoiding violent activities
5. Afternoon dozing
6. Drinking chrysanthemum tea
7. Rinsing wrists by cool water for 5 minutes

So keep that in mind this weekend as you try to “beat the heat” – stop fighting, ramp down your food intake before subsequently increasing it, and then take a nap before heading off to a bath with worms.
