It’s my favourite time of the year, and today is the Dragon Boat Festival (of 2026)! For this year I want to quote ‘同舟而济’:

夫吴人与越人相恶也,当其同舟而济,遇风,其相救也如左右手。《孙子兵法·九地》

Then the men of Wu and the men of Yüeh bear one another enmity; yet, should they cross the same river in one boat and be caught by a storm, they will fly to each other’s aid as the left hand succours the right. — Sun Tzu, The Art of War, Chapter XI (“The Nine Situations”)

May the spirit and luck be with us!
