To Admin,

It would help if there was a brief explantion of the sayings, isnt that what the whole website suppose to be about?

I’m not chinese so my brain is hardwired a bit different, some sayings are just plain hard to understand.

I have 1 for you.

same bed, different dream.

It means some couples/business partners sleep in the same bed but have a different dream of there life & what they want or need to be happy or successful. So be careful who you get into bed/partnership with.

Cheers
