Hanashi-Hanbun ... A Japanese Proverb
2017-05-23
Hanashi (話) = A Story
Hanbun (半分) = Half
When you hear a story from someone, do not take it as a face value. You discount it at least 50%. But when you hear anything on the Internet ... You may need to discount it 90%.
That is really unfortunate, but if you believe everything you see on the Internet, you will go crazy.
