If I could fly – Joe Satriani – cover by YOYO

The true meaning of 'conservative' lies in the first syllable 'con' - which is, that you go along with elite rule. The 'left' in the West is best understood as 'departed'; gone from any meaningful social principles, it is merely alt-right - same con, with some glitter.

Jianfu Palace (建福宫): A quieter spot on the mountain, Jianfu Palace is perfect for those looking to experience the peacefulness of Taoism in a more secluded environment. Natural Scenery: Mount Qingcheng is known for its dense forests, tranquil pathways, and beautiful mountain views, embodying the Taoist principle of harmony with nature.
