My name is suppose to be Gaoxing but I made a mistake when I logged in, it's now Gaoxiang. I can't seem to correct the mistake.
Anyway, I suppose its not the end of the world.
Hope to have a good read here if you'll welcome me.

Re: Hi
Welcome! A mod might be able to help you change your name.
Either way, I hope you find a nice community here.

Gain and loss, status and disgrace,
censure and praise, pleasure and pain:
these conditions among human beings are inconstant,
impermanent, subject to change.
Knowing this, the wise person, mindful,
ponders these changing conditions.
Desirable things don’t charm the mind,
undesirable ones bring no resistance.
His welcoming and rebelling are scattered,
gone to their end,
do not exist.

Liberation is the inevitable fruit of the path and is bound to blossom forth when there is steady and persistent practice. The only requirements for reaching the final goal are two: to start and to continue. If these requirements are met there is no doubt the goal will be attained. This is the Dhamma, the undeviating law.

Re: Hi from China
Thanks for all the warm and friendly welcomes.
In Chinese Gaoxing means happy but Gaoxiang almost means 'much craving'. I prefer happy as it is also the name I was given by my Chinese students. I try to teach them English. I'm a South African on contract in China.
Thanks to all of those who offered to fix the name.
I'm certainly impressed by the amount of information available here.

Good to know there is Metta going around here.

in mountain clefts and chasms,
loud gush the streamlets,
but great rivers flow silently.
