When My VPN Failed During a Live Stream of Revolutionary Letters, I Finally Understood What ‘Homeland’ Truly Means

I was sipping my morning coffee in my Toronto apartment, trying to watch that viral video of athlete Sun Jiajun reading revolutionary Cheng Xiong’s heartfelt letter—you know, the one from 1938 where the 19-year-old wrote ‘I live for greatness and die for glory’ before sacrificing himself at 24. But of course, the video kept buffering. Again.

My screen froze right at the moment Sun’s voice cracked with emotion. I could almost feel the weight of those words—’homeland,’ ‘sacrifice,’ ‘honor’—stuck in digital limbo, just like me, halfway across the world. It’s funny how a spinning loading icon can make you feel so disconnected from something so deeply personal.

I remember my grandpa once told me about Cheng Xiong’s generation—how they wrote letters with ink that smudged under sweat and tears, not pixels that lag over Wi-Fi. He said they folded those letters into tiny squares, tucking them into pockets like secrets. Now here I am, struggling to stream a 60-second clip.

It’s not just about this video, though. Last week, I missed the finale of that cooking show everyone’s raving about, and don’t get me started on trying to watch historical dramas without them stuttering every two minutes. I even called my cousin in Beijing, whining about it like a kid who dropped her ice cream. She laughed and said, ‘You’re not alone—my friend in Sydney says the same thing.’

But here’s the thing: that moment of frustration led me down a rabbit hole. I learned that Cheng Xiong’s letter wasn’t just words; it was a promise etched in time. And somehow, fighting through buffering screens to hear it felt like my own small act of remembrance. Silly, maybe, but true.

So yeah, I figured out a way to fix those pesky geo-blocks and smooth out the streams (tutorial coming soon, thanks to our awesome community!). But more than that, I realized that whether it’s a revolutionary’s ink or our pixelated screens, the longing to connect remains the same. What about you? Ever had a moment where a buffering video almost made you cry—or laugh? Share your stories below—let’s turn frustration into connection.
