The story of English

It is well that young men should begin at the beginning and occupy the most subordinate positions. Many of the leading businessmen of Pittsburgh had a serious responsibility thrust upon them at the very threshold of their career. They were introduced to the broom, and spent the first hours of their business lives sweeping out the office. I notice we have janitors and janitresses now in offices, and our young men unfortunately miss that salutary branch of business education. But if by chance the professional sweeper is absent any morning, the boy who has the genius of the future partner in him will not hesitate to try his hand at the broom. It does not hurt the newest comer to sweep out the office if necessary. I was one of those sweepers myself.

Assuming that you have all obtained employment and are fairly started, my advice to you is “aim high”. I would not give a fig for the young man who does not already see himself the partner or the head of an important firm. Do not rest content for a moment in your thoughts as head clerk, or foreman, or general manager in any concern, no matter how extensive. Say to yourself, “My place is at the top.” Be king in your dreams.

And here is the prime condition of success, the great secret: concentrate your energy, thought, and capital exclusively upon the business in which you are engaged. Having begun in one line, resolve to fight it out on that line, to lead in it, adopt every improvement, have the best machinery, and know the most about it.


The concerns which fail are those which have scattered their capital, which means that they have scattered their brains also. They have investments in this, or that, or the other, here there, and everywhere. “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.” is all wrong. I tell you to “put all your eggs in one basket, and then watch that basket.” Look round you and take notice, men who do that not often fail. It is easy to watch and carry the one basket. It is trying to carry too many baskets that breaks most eggs in this country. He who carries three baskets must put one on his head, which is apt to tumble and trip him up. One fault of the American businessman is lack of concentration.


To summarize what I have said: aim for the highest; never enter a bar room; do not touch liquor, or if at all only at meals; never speculate; never indorse beyond your surplus cash fund; make the firm’s interest yours; break orders always to save owners; concentrate; put all your eggs in one basket, and watch that basket; expenditure always within revenue; lastly, be not impatient, for as Emerson says, “no one can cheat you out of ultimate success but yourselves.”

Mid-autumn

Mid-Autumn Festival is also known as “Harvest Festival”, which is one of the most well known Chinese Festival none other than the “moon festival”

The Date -
The date of Mid-autumn Festival also known as Chinese Moon Festival is on the 15th moon day of 8th Chinese lunar month (Chicken month). Since the new moon day is the first day of a Chinese Lunar Month. The first day of 8th lunar month in the year 2008 is 31st August 2008, the Moon Festival is on 14 September 2008.

This is a day to worship the moon god. According to folk legend, this day is also the birthday of the earth god (T'u-ti Kung). This festival signals that the year's hard work in the fields will soon come to an end, with only the harvest left to attend to. People use this opportunity to express their gratitude to heaven (represented by the moon) and earth (symbolized by the earth god) for the blessings they have enjoyed over the past year.


The Chinese believe in praying to the moon god for protection, family unity, and good fortune. The round "moon cakes" eaten on this festival are symbolic of family unity and closeness. Pomelos are also eaten on this day. The Chinese word for "pomelo" or "grapefruit" is yu, which is homophonous with the word for "protection," yu, expressing the hope that the moon god give them protection. Moon gazing is another essential part of this festival. On this day, the moon is at its roundest and brightest. This is also a time for lovers to tryst and pray for togetherness, symbolized by the roundness of the moon. Unlike most other Chinese festivals, the Mid-Autumn Festival is a low-key holiday, characterized by peace and elegance.

Father's Day

Sonora Dodd, of Washington, first had the idea of a "father's day." She thought of the idea for Father's Day while listening to a Mother's Day sermon in 1909.



Sonora wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart. Smart, who was a Civil War veteran, was widowed when his wife died while giving birth to their sixth child. Mr. Smart was left to raise the newborn and his other five children by himself on a rural farm in eastern Washington state.



After Sonora became an adult she realized the selflessness her father had shown in raising his children as a single parent. It was her father that made all the parental sacrifices and was, in the eyes of his daughter, a courageous, selfless, and loving man. Sonora's father was born in June, so she chose to hold the first Father's Day celebration in Spokane, Washington on the 19th of June, 1910.



President Calvin Coolidge, in 1924, supported the idea of a national Father's Day. Then in 1966 President Lyndon Johnson signed a presidential proclamation declaring the 3rd Sunday of June as Father's Day. President Richard Nixon signed the law which finally made it permanent in 1972.



QUOTES ABOUT DAD



"A father is always making his baby into a little woman. And when she is a woman he turns her back again." -- Enid Bagnold



"None of you can ever be proud enough of being the child of SUCH a Father who has not his equal in this world-so great, so good, so faultless. Try, all of you, to follow in his footsteps and don't be discouraged, for to be really in everything like him none of you, I am sure, will ever be. Try, therefore, to be like him in some points, and you will have acquired a great deal." -- Victoria, Queen of England

Olympic English article

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen:

Bidding for the Olympic Games, in a way, an image-creating undertaking. The first and foremost thing is to let people fall in love with the city at first sight, attracting them by its unipue image. What image does Beijing
intend to create for itself once it has the opportunity to host the 2008 Olympics?

It is known to all that the Beijing Municipal Government has already set the theme for the future games: New Beijing, Great Olympics. For me, the 2008 Olympics will be a great green Olympics illuminated with two more special colors, yellow and red.

First, yellow is a meaningful color. The Yellow River is China's Mother River and the descendants of the Yellow Emperor. This color has a special origin and great significance for the Chinese people. Beijing is the capital of New China and previously the capital for nine dynasties in Chinese history. So, yellow will naturally add splendor to the 2008 Games.

Secondly, the 2008 Olympics will be a red pageant.Red is another traditionally cherished color for the whole country. We adore red. On big occasions, we like to decorate our homes in red. It is the color of double happiness, representing joyous moments, auspiciousness, enthusiasm and prosperity. Red is one of the most suitable colors to describe the future of Beijing . Beijing , together with the whole country, is becoming more and more prosperous in the process of modernization. Should the 2008 Olympics be held in Beijing, the whole city will be a sea of red : the red torch,red flags, red flowers, and the radiant faces of millions of joyful people.

Above all, the 2008 Olympics will be a green Olympics. Adding a green ingredient is essential in creating an appealing image, as we can't deny the fact that Beijing, at the moment, is not as green a city as what we like it to be. Striving for an environmentally appealing city has become a central task for all the citizens of Beijing. Big efforts have been made in pollution control, replanting and beautification of the city. According to a project entitled" The Green Olympic Action Plan", between 1998 and 2007, Beijing, we have invested 100 billion RMB in preserving and protecting the environment. Some 12.5 million trees and over 1 million acres of grass will be planted along the Fourth Ring Road. By then, the city's green area will make up 40% of its total. The city will also dredge its reservoirs used as a water supply to Beijing residents, controlling industrial pollution and moving out the 200 factories presently located within the city proper.

Certainly, all of this is no easy task. But I am sure that all of us have confidence that we will realize these green goals. For now we have the full support and participation of the environmentally conscious citizens. Each
citizen is showing great concern for every one of the steps the city government takes. As the saying goes, United, we stand, and agreen Beijing will be achieved.



When our aspiration becomes a reality, it will be a unique Olympics." New Beijing, Great Olympics"; will be weaved of these three superb colors: yellow, red and green.

Let us welcome it and look forward to it! Thank you!

The Chinese Dragon Boat Festival

The Dragon Boat Festival is a lunar holiday, occurring on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month


The Chinese Dragon Boat Festival is a significant holiday celebrated in China, and the one with the longest history . The Dragon Boat Festival is celebrated by boat races in the shape of dragons. Competing teams row their boats forward to a drumbeat racing to reach the finish end first.



The boat races during the Dragon Boat Festival are traditional customs to attempts to rescue the patriotic poet Chu Yuan. Chu Yuan drowned on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month in 277 B.C. Chinese citizens now throw bamboo leaves filled with cooked rice into the water. Therefore the fish could eat the rice rather than the hero poet. This later on turned into the custom of eating tzungtzu and rice dumplings.


The celebration's is a time for protection from evil and disease for the rest of the year. It is done so by different practices such as hanging healthy herbs on the front door, drinking nutritious concoctions , and displaying portraits of evil's nemesis, Chung Kuei. If one manages to stand an egg on it's end at exactly 12:00 noon, the following year will be a lucky one.


(Dragon Boat Festival)

The Dragon Boat Festival occurs on the fifth day of the fifth moon of the lunar calendar. It is one of the three most important of the annual Chinese festivals. The other two are the Autumn Moon Festival and Chinese New Year.
The story of this colorful festival concerns a famous Chinese scholar-statesman named Chu Yuan who, some three centuries before the birth of Christ, served the King of Chuduring the Warring States period. As a loyal minister, Chu Yuan at first enjoyed the full confidence and respect of his sovereign. Eventually, through the intrigues of his rivals, he was discredited.
Chu Yuan was never able to regain the emperor's favor and on the fifth day of the fifth moon in the year 295 B.C.(Before Christ), at the age of 37, Chu Yuan clasped a stone to his chest and plunged into the Milo River in the Hunan Province.
Respecting the minister as an upright and honest man, the people who lived in the area jumped into their boats and rushed out in a vain search for him. This unsuccessful rescue attempt is a part of what the Dragon Boat Festival commemorates every year.
Probably the most exciting and interesting aspect of the festival is the racing of the Dragon Boats. These races not only symbolize the people's attempt to save Chu Yuan, they also demonstrate the Chinese virtues of cooperation and teamwork.
Another activity of the Festival is the making and eating of a kind of dumpling called Tzungtzu . When it became known that Chu Yuan was gone forever, the people, living along the river, threw cooked rice into the water as a sacrifice to their dead hero. They wrapped rice in bamboo leaves, and stuffed it with ham, beans, bean paste, salted egg yokes, sausages, nuts, and/or vegetables.
To the Chinese the fifth lunar moon is more than just the Dragon Boat Festival. Since antiquity, they have believed that this month is a pestilential and danger-fraught period. Children born in this month are said to be difficult to raise, and people tend to concentrate their efforts during this time attempting to protect their families from ills and misfortune. The day of the Dragon Boat Festival is customarily the time when cleaning and sanitation are stressed. Most families hang calamus and artemisia above their doors, both as a decoration and as a preventive against pestilence.
Ancient folk medicines such as realgar are added to the food eaten on the Festival day. This is believed to prevent disease and to promote a healthy digestive system. The drinking of realgar in wine supposedly relievesthe effects of poisons accumulated in human bodies.
The sachets Hsiang Pao in Chinese are very popular with children and they vie with each other to collect as many as possible. Children are not the only ones who collect Hsiang Pao. Older people are often given them as a symbol of respect, and they are highly prized because of the intricate and beautiful embroidery that adorns them.
The Dragon Boat Festival is an entertaining and enjoyable event. It gives the observer an opportunity to glimpse a part of the rich Chinese cultural heritage.

To be kind-hearted

One evening, it was raining and the wind was blowing hard. An old couple came to an inn and prepared to put up for the night there. A young man received them with open arms,but said “I’m sorry! Our guest rooms here are all full and the inns nearby are all full, too, for there will be an important meeting to be held here tomorrow.”
Hearing the young man’s words, the old couple felt very disappointed, and turned around to leave.
Just as they were leaving, the young man came up to them and stopped them: “Madam and sir, if you don’t mind, you can sleep in my bedroom for a night…….”
The next evening, the old couple took out lots of money to give it to the young man, but he refused to take it.
“No!You needn’t pay me any money, for I only lend my room to you.” said the young man with a smile on his face.
“You’re great, young man! It’s very kind of you. Maybe one day, I’ll build a hotel for you!” said the old man gratefully.
With these words, the old couple left.
Gazing at their receding figures, the young man only laughed and went on working.
Several years later, the young man suddenly received a letter from the old couple, inviting him to go to Manhattan .
The young man met the old couple in front of a luxury hotel.
“Do you still remember what I said to you several years ago? Look! This is the hotel that I built for you!” said the old man.
Soon, the young man became the manager of the hotel.

Three passions

《三种激情》是选自《伯特兰·罗素自传》的一篇优秀散文。它既是作者心灵的抒发,也是生命体验的总结。作者以深刻的感悟和敏锐的目光,分析了人生中的三种激情,即对爱的渴望,对知识的追求和对人类苦难的同情。对爱的渴望,使人欣喜若狂,既能解除孤独,又能发现美好的未来。对知识的追求,使人理解人心,了解宇宙,掌握科学。爱和知识把人引向天堂般的境界,而对人类的同情之心又使人回到苦难深重的人间。作者认为这就是人生,值得为此再活一次的人生。这篇散文似乎信手拈来,但却耐人寻味。充满激情,充满感慨,充满智慧,情文并茂,逻辑性和感染力极强。

伯特兰·罗素(Bertrand Russell,1872-1970)是英国声誉卓著,影响深远的哲学家、数学家、逻辑学家和散文家。他生于威尔士的特莱雷克,就读于剑桥三一学院,在其漫长的一生中完成了40余部著作,涉及哲学、数学、伦理、社会、教育、历史、宗教及政治等许多领域。他早年的成就主要在数学和逻辑学,中年关注伦理道德、教育、政治,激励和启发富有进取精神的人。在1921年曾来中国,在北京大学作过讲座。他在1950年荣获诺贝尔文学奖。在政治上,他反对侵略战争,主张和平,晚年参加反战示威。主要著作有《数学原理》、《哲学大纲》、《教育与美好生活》、《罗素自传》三卷本。


Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair.

I have sought love, first, because it brings ecstasy –ecstasy so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of life for a few hours of this joy. I have sought it, next, because it relieves loneliness--that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold unfathomable lifeless abyss. I have sought it, finally, because in the union of love I have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints and poets have imagined. This is what I sought, and though it might seem too good for human life, this is what- at last- I have found.

With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of men. I have tried to apprehend the Pythagorean power by which number holds sway above the flu. A little of this, but not much, I have achieved.

Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always pity brought me back to earth. Echoes of cries of pain reverberate in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer.

This has been my life.I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.


三种激情 -----罗素

三种激情虽然简单,却异常强烈,它们统治着我的生命,那便是:对爱的渴望,对知识的追求,以及对人类苦难的难以承受的同情。这三种激情像变化莫测的狂风任意地把我刮来刮去,把我刮入痛苦的深海,到了绝望的边缘。

我曾经寻找爱,首先是因为它能使我欣喜若狂——这种喜悦之情如此强烈,使我常常宁愿为这几个小时的愉悦而牺牲生命中的其他一切。我寻求爱,其次是因为爱能解除孤独——在这种可怕的孤独中,一颗颤抖的良心在世界的边缘,注视着下面冰凉、毫无生气、望不见底的深渊。我寻求爱还因为在爱的融合中,我能以某种神秘的图像看到曾被圣人和诗人想象过的天堂里未来的景象。这就是我所追求的东西,虽然这似乎对于人类的生命来说过于完美,但这确实是我最终发现的东西。 我怀着同样的激情去寻找知识,我曾渴望着理解人心,我曾渴望知道为何星星会闪烁,我还企图弄懂毕达哥拉斯所谓的用数字控制变化的力量,但在这方面,我只知道一点点。

爱的力量和知识的力量引我接近天堂,但同情之心往往又把我拉回大地。痛苦的哭泣回响、震荡在我的心中。饥饿的儿童,被压迫、受折磨的人们,成为儿孙们讨厌的包袱的、无助的老人们,充斥着整个世界的孤独的气氛,贫穷和苦难,所有这一切都是对人类生活原本该具有的样子所作的讽刺。我渴望消除一切邪恶,但我办不到,因为我自己也处于苦难之中。 这就是我的生活,我认为值得一过。而且,如果有第二次机会,我将乐意地再过一次。

Take off the hard shell

One day, a lobster met a hermit crab in the deep sea.
To the hermit crab’s puzzlement, he found the lobster taking off his hard shell and showing his tender and lovely body.
“Hey! Lobster,” said the crab, “Why are you removing your protective shell? You could be eaten by a big fish, or knocked against a rock by the current and killed. Don’t be silly, or you will have to pay a heavy price for your behavior.”
“Thank you for your concern! But don’t you know that we have to remove our shells in order to grow?” “If we are too scared to remove our shells, then we can’t move forward in life as nature intended,” answered the lobster, and with these words, he carried on with his task.
The hermit crab thought for a while and then said, “What a clever lobster! Here I am wasting my day looking for places to hide from the sun, when I should be thing about how to grow bigger and stronger. ”

Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to hold out until the last possible moment.


When the island had almost sunk, Love decided to ask for help.


Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love said,


"Richness, can you take me with you?"


Richness answered, "No, I can't. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."


Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel. "Vanity, please help me!"


"I can't help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat," Vanity answered.


Sadness was close by so Love asked, "Sadness, let me go with you."


"Oh . . . Love, I am so sad that I need to be by myself!"


Happiness passed by Love, too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her.


Suddenly, there was a voice, "Come, Love, I will take you." It was an elder. So blessed and overjoyed, Love even forgot to ask the elder where they were going. When they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own way. Realizing how much was owed the elder, Love asked Knowledge, another elder, "Who Helped me?"


"It was Time," Knowledge answered.


"Time?" asked Love. "But why did Time help me?"


Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered, "Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is."

英语学习后的感悟文章

毕业了没得学可上了才开始爱上学习,可是当为了考试再次拿起课本还是发现学习效率不高,不喜欢去记那些死知识什么作家属于哪个年代派别啦有什么影响啦某个文学运动的定义啦,我不知道记这些有什么用,就象语法只是为能更好的阅读服务一样,这些背景知识只是为了使读者更好的理解作者的思想,但是中国的英语教育倾向于反客为主,这几天一直在复习课本,当学生们开玩笑似的问我书本上能考到多少东西时我只能说为了单选和改错,英语本来不需要教科书,老师的任务只是激发学生们对英语的兴趣,让他们主动的去阅读英语文章,见得多了,不用背诵自然也会有语感,相反的,我们现在强调的只是考试,大考小考最后一锤定音的高考…这样英语变成了一种为了得分不得不学的东西他们怎么会喜欢会去主动学?十五六岁的人有九门课一天学习至少十个小时!学生对我说老师头都要炸了!我无话可说,我想要他们放下课本去接触更宽广有趣的英语世界,可是我这点理论根本不成系统,自己实施可是很好的控制自己的方向,可不敢保证他们有足够的自制,也许,我的这种想法首先要改造的不是英语的学习方法而是学生们的学习观念,可以更自主一点,有足够的自学能力。都报怨中国孩子学英语时间不短但效果不好大多是哑巴英语,中国的教育制度往这儿一放就注定了中国的学校里出不了太多好的英语人才,学成的大部分还是要靠自己的努力与正确方法。虽然课本开始了改革但是我们眼前的路依然漫长而艰辛

Steve Jobs

Introduction
Born in 1955 Los Altos CA, he, along with Steve Wozniak, co-founded Apple Computer Corporation and became a multimillionaire before the age of 30. Subsequently started the Next Corporation to provide an educational system at a reasonable price, but found that software was a better seller than hardware.
Apple Computer
Jobs and Wozniak put together their first computer, called Apple I. They marketed it in 1976 at a price of $666. Apple I was the first single-board computer with built-in video interface, and on-board ROM, which told the machine how to load other programs from an external source. Jobs was marketing Apple I at hobbyists like members of the Homebrew Computer Club who could now perform their own operations on their personal computers.
The Next Step
Jobs sold over $20 million of his Apple stock, spent days bicycling along the beach, feeling sad and lost, toured Paris, and journeyed on to Italy. It was not until late August that he began to catch his breath. Then Jobs thought back on his experience at Apple. Though he is not an engineer, he felt his greatest talent had been spearheading development of new products. Jobs also recalled with special pride that he had helped introduce personal computers into education. To collect his thoughts one day, he took up pen and paper and began to write down the things that were important to him. Along with the development of Macintosh, he listed three educational projects he had launched: Kids Can't Wait, Apple Education Foundation, and the Apple University Consortium.
A Software Company
After leaving Apple, Jobs' new revolutionary ideas were not in hardware but software of the computer industry. In 1989 Jobs tried all over again with a new company called NextStep. He planned to build the next generation of personal computers that would put Apple to shame. It failed. After eight long years of struggle and after spending some $250 million, NextStep closed down its hardware division in 1993. Jobs realized that he was not going to revolutionize the hardware industry. He turned his attention to the software side of the computer industry.
Honors
He was awarded the National Medal of Technology from President Ronald Reagan in 1985 with Steve Wozniak (the first people to ever receive the honor), and the Jefferson Award for Public Service in the category "Greatest Public Service by an Individual 35 Years or Under" in 1987. On November 27, 2007, Jobs was named the most powerful person in business by Fortune Magazine. On December 5, 2007, California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and First Lady Maria Shriver inducted Jobs into the California Hall of Fame, located at The California Museum for History, Women and the Arts.

Where'd you go

Where'd you go?
I miss you so.
Seems like it's been forever.
That you have been gone.
He said "some days i feel like shit.
Some days i wanna quit, and just be normal for a bit."
I don't understand why you have to always be gone.
I get along but the trips always feel so long.
And, i find myself tryna stay by the phone.
'cause your voice always helps me when i feel so alone.
But i feel like an idiot, working my day around the call.
But when i pick up i don't have much to say.
So, i want you to know it's a little fucked up.
that i'm stuck here waiting, at times debating.
Telling you that i've had it with you and your career.
Now i find myself just filling my time.
Anything to keep the thought of you from my mind.
I'm doing fine, I plan to keep it that way.
You can call me if you find you have something to say.
I want you to know it's a little fucked up,
that i'm stuck here waitin', no longer debating,
tired of sittin' and hatin' and making these excuses,
for while you're not around, and feeling so useless.
It seems one thing has been true all along.
You don't really know what you got 'til it's gone.



The furthest distance in the world

The furthest distance in the world
Is not between life and death
But when I stand in front of you
Yet you don’t know that
I love you
The furthest distance in the world
Is not when i stand in font of you
Yet you can’t see my love
But when undoubtedly knowing the love from both
Yet cannot
Be togehter
The furthest distance in the world
Is not being apart while being in love
But when plainly can not resist the yearning
Yet pretending
You have never been in my heart
  
The furthest distance in the world
Is not
But using one’s indifferent heart
To dig an uncrossable river
For the one who loves you

God please bestow an I sincere love

Crowd, I find his true love. Still exist? Road injuries in love I, fortunately, I can use my language on my heart feelings.

Popular Jiangshan, watch the storm. Red sigh, only common people laugh. Many queries?
Love after being abandoned, I do not know what good aimlessly in confusion. At that time, in years of love, I feel that the taste of Happiness, perhaps this is a Man's life has been the happiest. But there will not be paid a real return in the end in the pursuit of what you need what?

A chance encounter, fate of the two strangers together. Into two familiar lover. Living together a long time, not the other side's met, and tired. Can not mutual understanding.
Therefore, again by a lover becomes a stranger. After the two parted know what their needs are, what is the love. Why do not cherish this fate does it? Know? Not love those who are so eager to love, to trace the memory of one eye, infatuated with a smile that once.
Love, has made me break, longing for the better. Later, also let me sad. Broken through and through the heart of love touched. Gradually accustomed to the sore hearts, and slowly cool the natural life. Alone in the dark corners in pursuit of their own have a bright future.
I have always believed that love does not need any reason, nor any commitment required. Ask their own hearts, in the end you pay for love the many true, many have deep.
God gave me you love a sincere, if realized, I will love motives. If a woman can really for me, this born enough, I also guarantee that there will not bother to bring this, and I had no choice but to guarantee a good one for her. See my friends so happy, apart from envy only sigh, and I do not know what love is, love only after the residual pain.
True love may seem far-fetched, but in the hearts of everyone. This article has not a beautiful word, but have left my mind the most sincere sigh. I believe that one day I can look for a sincere love me

The Flight of Youth

There are gains for all our losses.


There are balms for all our pain;


But when youth,the dream,departs

It takes something from our hearts,

And it never comes again.

We are stronger, and are better,

Under manhood’s sterner reign;

Still we feel that something sweet

Following youth, with flying feet,

And will never come again.

Something beautiful is vanished,

And we sigh for it in vain;


We behold it everywhere,


On the earth, and in the air,

But it never comes again!

英语口语发音要诀

英语口语发音练习要诀

1. Listen to yourself.
  如果你听不到自己的发音问题,要纠正就很难了。试着把你将的话录下来并和英语为母语人士将的对比一下。应对雅思口语非常有效。
  2. Slow down!
  很多英语学习者常说语速太快容易养成他们的坏习惯。由于太快而模糊不清是口语考试的大忌。所以我们要accuracy 然后才是fluency,每天操练一些基本语言以单音节开始,然后单词,把几个词连在一起,组成句子。这样你就能慢慢开始表达自己的思想了。
  3. Picture it...
  闭上你的眼睛并在说出口之前想一想如何发这个音。想象出口型和脸部动作。这个可以配合看电影来做,留意Hollywood的明星是怎么样一字一句的说出那些令人神魂颠倒的话语的。
  4. Get physical!
  发音是个形体动作。要学会嘴巴的发声方法和移动肌肉的方式。每天集中训练几个音。你发this, thank, they,和little, wool等单词困难吗?试试发‘th’,将你的舌头放在齿间(不要咬住)并从口中吐气。感受气流从你的舌间吹过。
  5. Watch yourself.
  站在镜子前查看当你发某些固定音时的嘴型,唇型和舌头的位置。和你看到的native speaker的发音对比!平时还可以把自己的发音模样录成video,仔细观察比较。
  6. Copy the experts.
  绝对没有取代从专家-英语母语人士处学习发音的方式。因此仔细听!听英语广播节目并看英语的电视节目和电影。尽量不要念字幕!模仿你所听到的-就算你还不肯定他们说的话。
  7. Practice makes perfect.
  发音的问题迟迟不能解决就是因为我们害怕犯错。-第一次见面,在饭店点菜,询问方向-然后你自己表演出对话内容。别害羞!启德雅思每周都举行免费的口语练习,不少同学来到广州图书馆practice,特别是考前的机经特训,对真题的模拟大有裨益。
  8. Find a language buddy.
  从其他人处获得反馈是非常重要的。找一个对提高英语水平同样感兴趣的朋友。试着更换录音资料这样你就可以互相听对方的发音。记住录完要重新听听,找出错误和闪光点啊。
  9. Be poetic.
  好的发音不仅是掌握单独的音节。还是对intonation (声音的升降调)和 stress (对单词中一些音节和句子中的一些单词更大声更清晰的发音)的理解。大声念一些诗歌,演讲,歌曲,集中练习单词的重音和音调。
  10. Sing a song!
  学习一些英语流行歌曲的歌词并跟着唱。唱歌帮助你放松并能让这些词说出来,同时帮助改进你的语音和语调。
我们中国人不需要钻牛角尖,一定追求发音像一个本地人,只要我们的发音不至于让对方产生误解就可以了。我们在平时,不需要迷信什么科学方法,只需要记住一点:模仿。但一定要模仿标准的英语或美语。在模仿的基础上,每天保持1个小时的自我口语练习,这个练习必须假想一个双向交流的场合,即仿佛有人与你交流一样。
讲讲英语的用气问题。我们在发音时,尽量气运丹田,而避免用肺发音,这可以使英语发音洪亮圆润。

你要把单词的读音发准,一定要发准!这是很重要的,平时就要注意个人的发音力求做到准确无误。英语是语言类学科,你必须要多说多练这样才行。而且在练习的过程中可以随时的发现不足并及时改正

大多数还是没有能够如愿,于是只好半途而废。究其原因,笔者认为主要有以下几点:

1. 学习目标不是很明确;
2. 没有不间断学习和练习的时间保证;
3. 没有确定的、行之有效的学习方法;
4. 没有找到适合自己水平的学习材料;

如何提高学生的英语听说读写能力

高中英语教学,听说读写能力的提高是关系教学成败的关键。我结合教学实际,在这几方面作了大胆尝试,下面就如何提高学生听说读写能力,谈谈自己的看法。

一、听力的培养

随着中国改革开放的不断深入,我与外界的交往日益频繁,英语的重要性日益突出,而且目前我国英语教学中“聋子英语”问题日益突出,为解决这一问题,高考题中增加了听力测试,以期通过高考指挥棒的作用来缓解并最终解决这一问题。

高考听力分两节,测试学生理解口头英语的能力。第一节5小题为简短对话;第二节共15小题,包括5段对话或独自。第一节放一遍,第二节放两遍,需时约20 分钟,内容主要包括日常生活文化教育、风土人情、传说、时事、科普等都是考生日常生活中能接触到的,要求考生(1)领略要义,目的是考查考生听录音理解大致内容的能力,其题干常为Wh-开头的特殊问句(2)获取详细的事实信息,即解释和说明主题的一些细节(3)对话或独白背景或谈话者的意图、观点和态度。常采用以下考查形式:What is the probable result of the conversation? What can we know from the man?

根据以上听力题型,我在日常听力训练中,一方面坚持常听不懈,充分利用精选的听力磁带,课上课下合理搭配,使其充分发挥作用;另一方面教会学生掌握听力技巧。在技巧方面,我从以下几方面人手。l、注意对话的环境和交流的信息。在理解对话时充分了解其语境,听对话时根据对话所交流的信息推断出对话者之间

关系和对话环境。2、弄清说话者的意图。听录音对要注意情景和语义的整体理解,抓住其中关键信息,理解说话者的意图、观点和态度。3、注意获取材料中的信息,理解对话内容。此类题不需要推理过程,主要要求听懂对话内容细节和提问。弄清“想做什么,“谁是动作执行者(承受者)”。4、排除干扰。正确答案往往在意思上与原文相同或相近。而干扰项往往在音形上与听力原文一致,用此迷惑考生,平时应加强朗读方法和技巧训练。

总之,提高听力水平要立足平时训练,针对薄弱环节进行强化训练。Practice makes perfect(熟能生巧)。多听、勤练、广泛实践、增强语感,听力考试中一定能取得好成绩。



二、说的能力的培养

近年来,“哑巴英语”现象相当普遍,这严重制约了与外界的交流,制约了我的改革开放,但限于条件,一直没把口语考查纳入高考之内。只是报考外语院校的考生才进行口试。英语口试主要是考核口语交际能力和语言基本功,要求学生不仅有正确的语音、语调,而且有一定的流利程度。针对这些我在日常教学中主要做了以下几方面的工作:

1、通过听录音,加强语音、语调训练,在平时课堂上对有录音的材料多让学生跟读。平时在课下训练时精选一两盘声音地道的原声磁带,每天花十几分钟反复地听,边听边试着跟读。

2、加强朗读。在平时教学中,尽量创造条件让学生读。如在讲话时,编选一些相似的对话;在讲课文时就课文内容进行分角色复述等。

3、创设英语环境。就象我学母语一样,把语言学习置于环境中,不知不觉中学会了很多,同样,学英语也不例外。在课堂上,老师尽量为学生创造良好的英语环境,比如,利用课前free talk叙述身边发生的事或讲述小故事。平时坚持说英语,培养学生用英语思维的能力。

三、阅读能力的提高

阅读是高考英语的重头戏,是关系高考英语成败的重要一环。近几年高考阅读理解题呈现出以下几个特点:1、篇幅增加,难度加大2、设问巧妙,要求提高3、选材多样,设计新颖4、突出语篇,注重能力。阅读理解的考查内容,大致可分为以下5种,即细节题、推理题、猜测词、句义题、归纳主题中心题、深层理解题。

根据以上这些,结合学生实际,我采取了以下措施来提高阅读能力:

一是词汇量,大纲上的词汇一定要认识。另外为了扩大词汇量,我每天让学生在黑

板上抄写几个生词,并每周进行一次考查,这样日积月累扩充了有关语言知识的八级目标(高中毕业要求)要求学生会使用3000个单词和400—500个习惯用语或固定搭配,成为我教学的努力目标。

二在阅读教学中我注意以下几点:1、培养良好的阅读习惯、训练阅读技巧。培养

默读的习惯,以提高语速,达到高考规定的要求;培养阅读预测能力,抓住文章主题句、

关键词,从整体上理解文章;根据不同阅读要求采用不同的阅读方法。2、在课文教学中,我采用 “任务式”教学,把课文阅读教学分为三大步骤,即任务前、任务中和任务后。任务前,用形式多样、灵活有趣的方法引入新课,激发其阅读兴趣;任务中学生带着几个浅层理解问题阅读,来解决问题,然后再带更深层问题精读;任务后,据课文内容作复述、改写或相似类型阅读理解题。

三是推荐高质量的阅读材料,扩大阅读量,增加背景知识的输入。我精选一些难易适中的,体裁多样、内容新颖、集趣味性、知识性、实用性于一体的篇目,让学生们去欣赏,由易而难,进而试着阅读英文原著。学生还可上网阅读英文报刊,如《中国日报》(China Daily)、《人民日报》英文版、《纽约时报》等。

四、写作能力的培养

高考书面表达题是学生得分普遍较低的题目。高考书面表达是严格按“评分标准”和“评分细则” 评分的。阅卷老师一方面看要点是否齐全,另一方面看语言表达是否准确,连贯流畅。学生因要点不全失分的少,主要是表达失误导致的失分,主要有以下几方面:一是词汇贫乏、用词不当或语言单调。二是套用母语来表达。三是篇章结构混乱不清,段落混乱,语无伦次,不知所云。

针对上述写作现状和高考要求,我从以下四个方面有的放矢地引导学生表达:

l、重视学生的语言知识积累。

要使学生有足够量的语言知识积累,首先要保证语言信息输入量,同时要注意信息输入的科学性,还要有适当的巩固措施。在平时教学中,教师特别重视以课文为载体,让学生复述课文,改写、缩写课文或把对话改写成短文,或者背诵全篇或部分课文,通过这些训练,学生有了一定量的语言知识积累后,当他要表达自己的思想时,就能呼之欲出,信手拈来。

2、架设知识与能力的桥梁。

知识的积累在于应用。有了一定量的知识积累后,要将知识转化为能力,必须通过实践。我在平时经常训练学生做一句多译和句型转换练习,这样可以训练学生多向思维灵活运用语言的能力,通过这些训练,巩固了句型结构,丰富了词汇。除此之外,我还有意识地训练学生分析和翻译长句子、复杂句。高考是选拨性考试,教师应鼓励学生充分展现自己的能力,不要胆小。

3、培养良好的思维习惯和写作程序。

良好的思维习惯包括用英语直接思维的习惯和思维逻辑性两方面,英语思维的培养要贯穿于英语教学全过程,一方面靠大量的信息输入,另一方面要通过大量练习。:皤养写作程序时,要求学生依要点,草拟提纲,简单列出所需词、词组、句型,然后连词成句、 ‘连句成文,再根据前后逻辑关系,运用适合关联词组成一篇逻辑严密,前后照应的文章,最后通读全文,检查修改,使之趋于完美。

4、训练解题技巧。

英语书面表达要注意:①要点要全,不能丢三落四、内容不全②表达要准确,减少语言错误,句子表达要灵活③语言表达要精确,切忌偏离主题,文章内容主次分明,条理性强④要注意句式新颖,适当多用复杂旬⑤字迹工整、书写规范,给人以美感。总之,书面表达要从自身出发,量力而行,扬长避短,力求写出自己的最佳水平。

享受英语学习的快乐

在“我和你,心连心,同住地球村”的今天,英语早已成为我们生活中不可或缺的一部分。我们每一个人,都必须尽自己最大的努力去学习英语,掌握英语,也只有熟练地掌握了英语,我们也才能更加自由自信地去拥抱这个绚丽多姿的世界,放飞我们的梦想。因此,一直有越来越多的朋友希望我能为大家提供一些学习英语的方法和技巧。英语是我的专业,更是我的爱好,在学习英语的路上,我和大家一样,也是在不断探索不断前进。在这里我只是把自己在与英语亲密接触后的一些心得体会毫无保留地告诉所有的朋友们,希望能对大家有所帮助。
对于每个刚刚步入课堂的孩子来说,培养学习兴趣是最重要的,尤其是英语作为一门语言,与数学物理那样的学科不同,需要更多地在日常的使用中不断提高和巩固学习的内容。因此,我认为小学时的英语课堂上应当处处洋溢着欢声笑语,充满乐趣。通过在英语课堂上放一些英语儿歌,或是一些英文原版动画片,能够让这些刚刚推开英语宝库之门的懵懂好奇的孩子在欣赏与放松中首先充分领略英语的美好与魅力。自然而然地,他们的注意力都会在那些优美的旋律和有趣的故事情节之外也被这门奇妙的语言所吸引,在一步步拉近与英语的距离的过程中,也让每一个孩子的英语学习变得更加轻松与快乐。但九层之台,起于垒土,搭建英语这座大厦也需要稳固的地基,从学习英语的第一天起,我们就一定要培养起良好的学习习惯,坚持单词记忆,不断扩大词汇量,脚踏实地,点滴积累,这样才能最终让属于自己的英语大厦高耸入云。
进入中学时代后,英语的学习任务和学习难度都会增大,我们也必须端正态度认认真真地对待。英语学习是一段非常需要持之以恒的耐心与毅力的慢慢征途,从纠正发音到背单词,从背单词到学写简单的句子,从简单的句子到短小的段落,再从短小的段落到一篇流畅的文章……每一个脚印都必须踏踏实实地迈好,每一个环节都至关重要,不能有丝毫的放松和懈怠。
我们每一个人都应当给自己制定详细的英语学习计划:比如坚持每天上课认真记课堂笔记,晚上回家首先写英语作业;坚持每天迎着朝阳早早起床朗读英语课文、背诵单词,晚上临睡前听听英语磁带,伴着耳边的美妙英文进入梦乡;坚持把单词抄在小本子上,每天在往返于学校和家之间的路途中一有空就捧在手里背一背……虽然的确需要我们付出极大的艰辛和努力,但我相信,在英语这片土地上,我们洒下的每一滴汗水都会最终收获丰硕的果实。
当然,学习英语努力固然重要,但是也必须掌握正确的学习方法。举例说来,背单词,死记硬背只能勉强收到一时的效果,随着时间的推移必然会逐渐淡忘,成效甚微。记单词的关键是要学好音标,掌握音标的规则之后记忆单词就变成了一件简单有效的事情了。同时,要掌握新学的句型和语法,一个极其有效的好方法就是坚持记英文日记,这样既能对当天学习的句型和单词加以运用,又能不断培养和提高英语的写作能力。至于听力,只听课文是远远不够的,平时可以经常听一听英语广播,那里面精彩有趣的英语故事不仅可以锻炼我们的英语听力,还可以让我们学习到一些课本以外的知识……只要掌握了学习的窍门,就可以轻松而愉快地学习英语,达到事半功倍的效果。
同时,滴水穿石的恒心和毅力是学习任何学科都必不可少的,英语更是如此。与数学相比,英语作为一门语言更加需要我们在平时的点滴积累中逐渐提高学习能力。所以,千里之行,始于足下,每天的点滴积累对于英语学习自然是至关重要的。直至现在我都非常庆幸自己在一开始就养成了每天早上晨读和背单词的好习惯。每天清晨,迎着微风,在朝阳灿烂的光晖中用美妙的英文开始自己崭新的一天,这对我而言是一件何其幸福与快乐的事情啊。时光荏苒,走出校园的我依然没有放弃这份坚持,只要一有机会,我就一定会将清晨的美好时光献给我挚爱的英语,感受那份发自内心的学习的愉悦。现在英语已经成为了我珍爱的宝物,它融入了我的生活,融入了我的生命,也将伴我走过脚下的漫漫人生路。
而我相信,只要大家能够像我一样从心底里热爱英语,培养良好的学习习惯,掌握正确的学习方法,从一点一滴做起,持之以恒,就一定能够在英语这片广袤富饶的土地上发掘到无穷的宝藏。让我们共同迈向轻松愉悦的英语之旅,尽情享受英语学习的快乐吧

How about one year olde

My bitthday past a couple days,and there is something what I thought.Among the main reasons for delaying in writing were poor of my English.

Age and Mind

As I was little,I would image how about was during the twentys.Life would be free,bright,and full of energy,and I would be independence,lovely woman,or anything could take control.but it’s opposite.I am disappointed in this situation for my life.

I don’t afraid get older at this moment,but I scare my mind doesnot match my age.No matter who you are,there are diverse characters to take you to act,and make you know how exactly about the life or about ourselves.I really know it isnot mature enough for me.So my age becomes a concept getting more and more special,and it’s hard to make words to express.The next year is the Chinese zodiac calendar which is the tiger,which is my year,and one cycle of my life.How to create a better cycle in my life becomes new topic.

Around me

Last weekend we,classmates of college,gathered again since graduation.What a nice gathering!Over the students’life nearly one year,some topic I always think about,just study,career,life,family,friends or even more.It’s perhaps no answers but the time.time will give the answers as long as it isnot too late.

Some changes have happened,about me,and others around.Perhaps it isnot only just by person themselves,but also by environment.and it is going on.Well,thank you everyone.Thank you for your wishes and presents.I am happy and feel warm.By the way,I take shame that I miss someones’bitthday or others else but who care about me.But I take all of these to my heart and try my best to do well.So…Thank you all the same.

Man Is Like a Fruit Tree--Elmer Bobst

While taking my boat down the inland waterway to Florida a few weeks ago, I decided to tie up at Georgetown, South Carolina, for the night and visit with an old friend. As we approached the Esso dock, I saw him through my binoculars standing there awaiting us. Tall and straight as an arrow he stood, facing a cold, penetrating wind—truly a picture of a sturdy man, even though his next birthday will make him eighty-two. Yes, the man was our elder statesman, Bernard Baruch.

He loaded us into his station wagon and we were off to his famous Hobcaw Barony for dinner. We sat and talked in the great living room where many notables and statesmen, including Roosevelt and Churchill, have sat and taken their cues. In his eighty-second year, still a human dynamo, Mr. Baruch talks not of the past but of present problems and the future, deploring our ignorance of history, economics, and psychology. His only reference to the past was to tell me, with a wonderful sparkle in his eye, that he was only able to get eight quail out of the ten shots the day before. What is the secret of this great man’s value to the world at eighty-one? The answer is his insatiable desire to keep being productive.

Two of the hardest things to accomplish in this world are to acquire wealth by honest effort and, having gained it, to learn how to use it properly. Recently I walked into the locker room of a rather well-known golf club after finishing a round. It was in the late afternoon and most of the members had left for their homes. But a half-dozen or so men past middle age were still seated at tables talking aimlessly and drinking more than was good for them. These same men can be found there day after day and, strangely enough, each one of these men had been a man of affairs and wealth, successful in business and respected in the community. If material

prosperity were the chief requisite for happiness, then each one should have been happy. Yet, it seemed to me, something very important was missing, else there would not have been the constant effort to escape the realities of life through Scotch and soda. They knew, each one of them, that their productivity had ceased. When a fruit tree ceases to bear its fruit, it is dying. And it is even so with man.

What is the answer to a long and happy existence in this world of ours? I think I found it long ago in a passage from the book, Genesis, which caught my eyes while I was thumbing through my Bible. The words were few, but they became indelibly impressed on my mind: “In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat thy bread.”

To me, that has been a challenge from my earliest recollections. In fact, the battle of life, of existence, is a challenge to everyone. The immortal words of St. Paul, too, have been and always will be a great inspiration to me. At the end of the road I want to be able to feel that I have fought a good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith.

Met You

Saw you once again
Your shadow far apart
Do u know?
I did tell myself, i will forget you the day after
I did remind myself, i dont miss you anymore
Then i thought i really did, but till now~
I found i am a fool, i was deceiving myself
You were never out of my life
Even a day
But conceal from my deepest heart
Miss you
Remember you
Never even less than yesterday
Do you know?
While saw you, i shunted
Escape from you
No whys but felt my heart was bleeding
Perhaps afraid to face you
Perhaps afraid that i couldnt speak when meeting you
I know
You always being who you are
You are not the one i meet before
And the one i miss not the one i met
The yesterday of you will only alive in my deepest heart

Medicare Supplemental Insurance for Senior Citizens

The senior citizens need extra attention and care for their physical health and the insurance companies understand this very well. The supplemental Medicare companies in California are providing a huge variety of offers under Medicare supplement insurance for senior citizens. Those who are living their retired life with fixed income; they can manage their healthcare needs (which do not come under their original healthcare insurance policy) with the help of these policies. If you do not have much knowledge of the subject and would like to know more about supplemental Medicare in California, you are on the right webpage. It is easy to get confused by the variety of supplemental Medicare offers available in the market. If you already have Medicare part A cover, part B can be a wonderful complement to the first policy

Purchasing Medicare Supplemental Insurance Plan

Now that you have arrived at the step of actually purchasing Medicare Supplemental Insurance for yourself, here are some helpful tips on how you should go about it.

Application Process:

While filling the application form, do ensure that every question is answered properly. If there is anything which is not clear, talk to your insurance agent. Even if the application form is being filled by your insurance agent, review it carefully. While buying Medicare Supplemental Insurance, no company can refuse coverage to you if you are filing your application within the open enrollment period.

Medigap Insurance Plans – A friendly gesture

Human body is the most organic substance present in this living world. No matter how much you look after your health, it can break down anytime. Any problem in human body means a lot of cost and loss of money. Very few people have money ready at hand for such problems. It can be a difficult situation if you or any of your family members fall sick and have to be admitted to hospital, and you find that you do not have that amount of money needed for the treatment. The health insurance plans comes very handy at those times. They help by paying a part of a person’s medical cost.

Paying High Medicare Supplemental Insurance Premium Doesn’t Give You More

If you have had a medical situation recently, and you underwent treatment for the same but your health insurance does not cover entire expenditure of your treatment, you may well be in a quandary. Managing these extra costs of medicines and other hospital expenses is not simple. If you had taken a supplemental Medicare insurance policy earlier, you would not have faced this situation. The supplemental Medicare insurance policies help you get rid of the extra medical costs. There are large gaps in your original health care policy since it does not cover all your health care requirements. You must have understood by now, even if you already have a health care insurance policy, you still need to buy a supplemental Medicare insurance policy.

Finding an Affordable Health Insurance Plan

Health Insurance is something every person should have in order to make sure they will receive good care in case of an illness or an accident. It is a good way to not burden your family with medical expenses. Finding a Health Insurance plan which is affordable and doesn’t become a burden to your monthly income is quite a task. Look for a plan that works in a lot of hospitals and make sure they are close by. Below are some of the features to look for in an affordable Health Insurance plan.

Medicare Supplemental Plans for the Senior Citizens

Life after retirement is a time for relaxing for the older citizens. It is a time without any tension or any rule to follow. The only thing that can emerge as an obstacle is their health problems. Health problem is a common problem for aged people. Since, they do not have any source of income after retirement; it gets hard enough to pay the hospital bills. And in order to pay the huge amounts, their life time savings vanishes. To help them out in such condition, the United States Government has issued several Medicare Insurance Plans for them. But, these health insurance plans do not always cover all their needs. So, as a back up, several Medicare Supplemental Insurance groups have come forward.

Some useful Information for purchasing Medicare Insurance

Hundreds of medigap insurance companies have grown up all over United States. Now, what does a private medigap insurance company really do? Nearly each and every person has got health insurance from some state or country level government services. But, these government services often leave gaps in their policies, so to fulfill these gaps people purchase Medicare supplemental plans from the private insurance companies. These private health insurance plans costs a lot more than the govt. provided plans. But, people go for these just because the services of these companies are much better. The agents are always very helpful, they arrange for all the formalities that are required for purchasing the Medicare plans.

Health is Wealth – Keep it safe

There is an old saying you have learnt in school ‘health is wealth’. Very small yet very significant. Because whatever job you are doing you need to have a good health to flourish in your career and life. Even to enjoy time with your family and to taste the success in your job which you have earned hard way, need your healthy body. Look at the life of any successful man around yourself and your own society. You are sure to find one common thing that all were hard working. How they worked hard to become successful if their health would not permit? Think of yourself. Wherever you are working, you are required to give output. Otherwise truly you are to find, there are people out in the society who are qualified enough to challenge your job if you can not give out what is desired by your employer. You must have some back up plan to keep ready if you get some day off from your job due to illness of yourself or someone in your family.

Household Contents Insurance – Should You Take Out Home Contents Insurance?

Once you find some companies you are interested in, ask yourself if you want house insurance or household contents insurance. This is an invaluable tool that can help you choose the company that can best meet your needs and offer you the lowest price as well. Fire does not just cause damage to replaceable property and possessions. Or getting someone to investigate for you whether common risks such as flat contents insurance, cover for money and goods in transit and business interruption insurance can be covered under an all-risks type policy. Whether the outcome can be good or bad, in terms of financial advice buying the wrong plan could relate to loses or gains on a investment. Flat contents insurance can give you peace of mind that you’re fully protected for any loss or damage of both you items and business premises.

An alarming number of houses do not have some form of house alarm for deterring would be thieves, this is important as some home and building insurance providers require an adequate level of home security even dictating what type of locks you need to have in order to be covered. It’s a valuable piece of equipment you’ll find hard to live without. On the legal front, look for coverage of any associated legal expenses that involves your or a family member. If you rent your home then your landlord will probably have contents and buildings insurance to cover the actual building. Fire, lightning and explosions can cause damage to your house, as can earthquakes, storms and floods. Lauched in the uk as an underwriter in 1992, budget insurance has become one of the uk’s top insurance intermediaries.

Once upon a time, the only way to get quotes for your house insurance companies was to directly contact the insurers in person or over the phone. In general, you get what you pay for with insurance, but also remember that the most expensive may not always be the best, either.

About life

Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human being's heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what's next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long are you young.


An individual human existence should be like a river—small at first, narrowly contained within its banks, and rushing passionately past boulders and over waterfalls. Gradually the river grows wider, the banks recede, the waters flow more quietly, and in the end, without any visible break, they become merged in the sea, and painlessly lose their individual being.


Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity,of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease.This often exists in a man of sixty more than a boy of twenty.Nobody grows old merely by a number of years.We grow old by deserting our ideals.


Years may wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.

Don't

Don't underestimate yourself.

Don't refuse to listen.

Don't bottle things up.

Don't expect life to be fair.

Don't stick your head in the sand.

Don't beat your head against a brick wall.

Don't think the grass is greener

on the other side.

Think it over

Today we have higher buildings and wider highways,but shorter temperaments and narrower points of view;

We spend more,but enjoy less;


We have bigger houses,but smaller famillies;

We have more compromises,but less time;


We have more knowledge,but less judgment;

We have more medicines,but less health;

We have multiplied out possessions,but reduced out values;

We talk much,we love only a little,and we hate too much;

We reached the Moon and came back,but we find it troublesome to cross our own street and meet our neighbors;

We have conquered the uter space,but not our inner space;

We have highter income,but less morals;

These are times with more liberty,but less joy;

We have much more food,but less nutrition;

These are the days in which it takes two salaries for each home,but divorces increase;

These are times of finer houses,but more broken homes;

That's why I propose,that as of today;

You do not keep anything for a special occasion.because every day that you live is a SPECIAL OCCASION.


Search for knowledge,read more ,sit on your porch and admire the view without paying attention to your needs;


Spend more time with your family and friends,eat your favorite foods,visit the places you love;

Life is a chain of moments of enjoyment;not only about survival;


Use your crystal goblets.Do not save your best perfume,and use it every time you feel you want it.


Remove from your vocabulary phrases like"one of these days"or "someday";

Let's write that letter we thought of writing "one of these days"!

Let's tell our families and friends how much we love them;

Do not delay anything that adds laughter and joy to your life;


Every day,every hour,and every minute is special;

And you don't know if it will be your last.

真爱涵义

在一高速公路上,一男孩带着一女孩,摩托开的特别快,女孩害怕,于是对男孩说开慢些,男孩说只要你说一声我爱你就开慢,女孩说了,但是车速一点也没减慢,女孩又对男孩说开慢些,男孩说只要你把头盔带上就减慢,于是女孩带上头盔,第二天报红上登出,高速公路发生车祸,一男死亡,女轻伤,女孩说其实当她说我爱你的时候男孩就尝试减速,但是在此同时男孩发现刹车失灵,所以男孩就把唯一的头盔给了女孩!
其实世界上最伟大的爱并不是拥有而是放弃!
真爱并不是说我爱你这三个字就可以!

《看透一个人》

看一个国家的国民教育,要看他的公共厕所。
看一个男人的品味,要看他的袜子。
看一个女人是否养尊处优,要看她的手。
看一个人的气血,要看他的头发。
看一个人的心术,要看他的眼神。
看一个人的身价,要看他的对手。
看一个人的底牌,要看他身边的好友。
看一个人的性格,要看他的字写得怎样。
看一个人是否快乐,不要看笑容,要看清晨梦醒时的一刹那表情。
看一个人的胸襟,要看他如何面对失败及被人出卖。
看两个人的关系,要看发生意外时一方的紧张程度。
看你重不重视我的贴子,就要看你有没有看到此处了。
看你有没有良心,就要看你回不回贴了。

幸福必备十大要素

幸福的十大要素:
  1.必须拥有健全的身体和健康的体魄,这是幸福的基石。吃食不挑剔,说话有条理,走路稳健。
  2.切合实际的目标和期望,这是幸福的内在驱动力。一个人如果没有目标追求,幸福的河水就会在懒散中干涸。
  3.自尊,这是幸福的支架,也是幸福的赐予。
  4.控制感情,这是幸福的规则。过分地压抑或放纵自己的感情,会和幸福相悖。
  5.乐观,是幸福的源泉。保持乐观,就能繁衍幸福。
  6.豁达,是幸福的开阔地。
  7.益友,是幸福的开心果。
  8.合群,人缘好,幸福自会来。
  9.挑战性的工作和活动性的消遣,这样的一张一弛,才会有幸福交替出现。
  10.团队意识,这是幸福的蓄水池。

冬季遗失的最后一抹忧伤

冬季的夜晚。
苍穹如此寂寥。
我踩着漫不经心的步伐。
看着影子在黑暗中消失不见。
偶尔抬头仰望。
意外见到星星细碎地散布天际。
不是特别明亮。
却璀璨了我眸底的光芒。
不远处的夜幕。
一轮不曾满盈的明月高挂。
脑海不期然地浮现。
曾经有人告诉我。
星星的光芒太过黯淡。
总是容易被月亮的银辉覆盖。
而今夜。星与月。却如此并存。
仿佛两个互不干扰的国度。
用自己的光辉营造出另一片和谐的天地。
我默默地看着。
冷风迎面扑来。
冻得怕冷的自己瑟瑟发抖。
禁不住拢了拢衣襟。
双手轻轻将自己的胸膛环绕。
企图抵御那种透骨的冰冷。
心里微微有些讶异。
为何自己不向往常那般。
快速奔跑着穿过小巷。
走进温暖的屋里呢?
茫然地又抬头望望天际。
也许。也许是我将世界遗忘太久。
忽然想要寄由这股寒冷。
彻底冻醒我被自己冰封。
甚或遗忘的思想。
多久了呢?
我将自己放逐于文字的浩瀚海洋里?
忘记了思考。
忘记了阳光,
忘记了孤单,
忘记了说话……
或者,
忘记了生活?
我,仿佛如同一个会动的木偶。
重复着每天相同的节奏。
吃饭、睡觉、埋首文字的境界…
轻嗅着别人的墨迹飘香。
感受着别人的坎坷无奈。
感动着别人的坚强挣扎…
仿佛。自己只是一个旁观者。
冷冷地看着每一幕剧情上演。
尽管有动情的时刻。
却没有参与的戏份。
那…不是属于我的舞台…
也许。某些时候。
人真的会遗忘生活的原貌。
也遗忘了自己的初衷。
放逐。
是因为怕失去。
还是因为怕拥有?
何时。
我茫然地看不见自己该走的路?
就连思想。
也可以在虚无中逐渐覆盖。
蒙尘
生命不可承受之重。
不是失去。
而是不懂珍惜;
生命不可承受之轻。
不是无法拥有。
而是不知该怎么拥有。
所以。很多时候。
失去是福。
茫然才更是失落。

走向彼岸

曾经历过失落的痛楚,但从不把悔恨的旧梦重拾。既然秋天的落叶早已消融在生活的大地,化做滋养生命之树常青的甘乳,又何必再去 寻寻觅觅那份感伤的情怀?面对岁月之轮永不停歇的步履,沉浸往事只能倾斜心灵的天平,寻觅过去只能拾回尘封的梦幻。
 作别西天缥缈的云彩,步入情深意浓的黄昏。纵使失去皎洁的圆月,尚且拥有满天闪烁的繁星。当还在温柔的梦乡中流连忘返,黎明已悄然来到身边。生活赠与我们的是许许多多实实在在的丰富意蕴,我们岂能被人生的风风雨雨和云遮雾绕迷蒙住双眼?告别过去,正是为了珍惜现在和 开拓未来。当把所有的痛苦与悲伤埋进昨天,便真正拥有了一个崭 新的今天。
 人生本是由一连串的遗憾组成的。何必对生活中的遗憾耿耿于怀。面临岁月之河,人生只有在向彼岸进取的征途中,才能焕发迷人的光彩。

一句最感人的话

5岁的时候,我说我爱你.
你歪着脑袋,眨着水晶般的大眼睛,疑惑地问我:"什幺意思呀?"
15岁的时候,我说我爱你.
你的脸红得像火烧云,头深深地底着,摆弄着衣襟.你好象在笑.
20岁的时候,我说我爱你.
你把头*在我的肩上,紧紧地挽住我的手臂,像是下一秒我就要消失一样.
25岁的时候,我说我爱你.
把早餐放在桌上,跑过来刮了一下我的鼻子,说:"知道了!懒虫,该起床了!"
30岁的时候,我说我爱你.
你笑着说:"你呀,要是真的爱我,就别下了班到处跑,还有,别再忘了我叫你买的菜!"

一滴眼泪,要用多长时间,才可以自由释放? 

40岁的时候,我说我爱你.
你边收拾碗筷边无表情的嘟囔着:"行了,行了.快去给孩子复习功课去吧."
50岁的时候,我说我爱你.
你打着毛衣头也不抬:"真的?.你心里是不是巴不得我早点儿死掉."
然后就咯咯咯地笑个不停.
60岁的时候,我说我爱你.
你笑着捶了我一萠:"死老头子!孙子都这末大了,还贫嘴!"
70岁的时候,我们坐在摇椅上,戴着老花镜,
欣赏着50年前我给你的情书,我们已绮褶皱的手又握在了一起,那时侯我说我爱你,
你深情地望着我,
其实你那已绮皱纹对垒的脸仍是那幺美丽......
炉子上的开水咕嘟咕嘟地冒烟,
温馨的暖意充满了整个屋子........ .....
.80岁的时候,你说你爱我.我什幺也没说,因为我流泪了.
但是那是我人生最最快乐的日子.
因为你终于说出了那句"我--爱--你

随想

很多时候,总想一个人静静地坐下来感慨点什么,顺畅一下几近迂曲颓废的心房,却又每每奔坡劳碌,玩命于世俗的大潮迟迟不能靠岸。
于是,空虚与失落与日俱增,时至今日,生命除了感伤就是惶急,如漂流的浮萍,无所归依。
人,到底需要什么,心灵才能得以平静;青春,却又在迷茫中喟叹什么?
人生迅疾如白驹过隙,转瞬即是一个轮回,在这醉梦一般短暂即逝的岁月里,我们2/3以上的时间都是在不断的尝试和拼搏之中度过。
从少年红颜到银头白发,为了一切永恒无止的追求,我们打破了头颅鲜血淋淋地一次次和自己抗争,刚翻过一座大山,立马奔赴远方扑朔迷离的征程。
不管痛苦,不管疲乏,只要一气尚存,就得永不停息地奔跑下去。
人生的莽原上,生命如草芥一般凄凉,随时面临夭折的命运,无情的社会大潮翻滚着它惊涛骇人的浪花,叫嚣着来自魔力的不可抗拒的威慑。
为了生活,我们尽力苦苦支撑失控的人生航驼,努力迎合它忽阴忽阳的节拍;为了生活,我们学会了伪装和坚强,学会了借酒浇愁,狂吐烟圈。
我们苦苦追寻,曲意逢迎世俗,随时感受着一张张冷漠,自私,庸俗或是仓皇的表情,我们早已习惯于精神麻木,对任何感动和泪水都能抱以无动于衷。
在人满为患,硝烟弥漫的地球,我们垂青金钱,向往自高无上的爱情,热衷于被人追捧,崇尚傲慢冷酷的玩世不恭,不怕道德的谴责,不怕流氓的谓称。
只要我们抵达,于是我们心安理得,昂首挺胸并不惜视昨天的辛劳如烟云,一月月一年年醉生梦死,日日笙歌。
青春,沸腾的热血,几乎每个人都在积极奔走,企求上苍许以雨霖,我却像无主的孤魂浪迹于偌大的虚无,没有希望,没有理想。
我背离了世俗的主流,迷恋于流云的逍遥,飞鸟的自由,荒唐地梦想着看见大海,到渴慕以久的远方探索不为人知的奥秘。
然而,所有的一切都在我梦醒后随飘零的落叶四散而去,我尚未出门,却已无可奈何地厌倦旅行多少个夕阳西下的黄昏,我站在难得幽静的校园独自徘徊,多少痛楚和忧伤充溢我的内心,我并不因为自己茕茕孑立,形单影只而郁郁寡欢,怨天尤人。
然而,多少事深藏我的心囊,多少愤怒和耻辱像虫子一样嘶咬着我的肝脾:卑贱的出生,阴冷的现实,不可逆转的命运,永无止境的疲乏,我幻想死亡,渴望着自己走进天堂,聆听来自神灵和非理性的召唤,然而不能,理性像鞭子对待奴仆一样围裹着我的自由,嘲笑着我的泪水。
命运的大神有意作弄我弱小的灵魂,罚我在冰天雪地里苦苦寻觅,寻觅那若有若无的归宿,“海阔山遥,未知何处是潇湘。”
在一个个寂寞的白天和无数个不眠之夜,孤单像虫子一样汹涌着心灵的万顷碧波,绞尽了肝肠,把音乐一听再听,把萧笛一吹再吹,却总也逃脱不了空虚无助的惆怅。
我尽管年轻,灵魂却已丧失殆尽,我是上帝不小心遗落人间的杂物,命中注定我只能扼守清贫,浮沉于世俗的海洋无所作为。
夜风呼啸着掠过窗棂,一如这个季节一样肃杀和肆无忌惮,这是辛辣的嘲讽,还是善意的鞭笞?

岁月

蓦然回首中,欢笑宛如云烟,似水年华流走,不留影踪。
不要以为未来总是很美好,路很遥远,世事难料,说不定从明天起,美好就不复存在了。不要为现在的人是物非而伤感,更不要为将来的物是人非而颓废。
风消逝了,循着自己的旧梦。留下来的只有空气,每一丝每一缕都透着凉气。
今日的我就如一片孤独的落叶,只能体会那飘零的凄美,我又如一片云,在天空中寻找美丽。我把希翼留给明天。
等待的时间总像失眠的黑夜一样,无助而漫长。但内有一份期盼,一种希望,这种等待就会有意义。相信明日的阳光会开的很灿烂,留住昨天的美丽,迎接新的一天,让昨日之思变为明日目标的实现,那份意外的成功喜悦会给我带来无比的幸福和满足感。
今日之劳累、痛苦只是为了铸造明日之辉煌。你愿意为之付出吗?即使你默认要承受这份痛苦,当困难来临时,你有没有气馁动摇过?最重要的是要固执的坚持下来,不为外界的干扰而分心,不为一时的患得患失而愁眉不展,欲说还休。而每一次的克制,都意味着比以前更强大。
明天对谁都不是一个谜,真诚地生活,执着地追求,命运之绳尽在掌握。我们都向往梦里的生活,但我们都不能永远地生活在梦里。
在人生的道路上,不可能一帆风顺,大多数的人生路是崎岖不平的。而正是这崎岖不平的人生风景线,才使得生命更充实,更有意义。我的心中充满了忧伤与孤寂,随着时光的流逝,当出生活中的色彩已被岁月的波涛冲刷的苍白,内心深处的黯然神伤地就不时地扫荡着我那已十分脆弱的心理防线。但我的内心却没有寂静无声,依旧渴望明天的美好。
留给明天,不是随风而逝的承诺,而是历经沧桑之后的幡然悔悟,人是感性的动物,需要守候自己的信仰,它是生命延续的动力源泉。

手指的方向

时间已经带走了许多,包括熟悉、人情冷暖。不知道时间除了层层叠叠的痛、断断续续的裂痕,又带给我了冷漠,还是改变?人是不是总在经历很多之后变得圆滑?在拥有很多后,便忘了自己单纯的梦想与执着?   当一身锐气被世俗磨平,当满心欢喜被一点点掏空,当眼眶中的泪熟悉了流下的路径,我想:是不是所有的爱恨情愁都会随着时间沉淀下来?它们会随着血液在身体里流动,变成缕缕气息与每次呼吸同进同出,变成身体不可分割的一部分,渗透在每个动作,每句言语中,如影随形…也许这就是成长。于是,告诉自己要学会懂得,懂得给自己一点时间好好去思考,懂得如何在百转千回中及时抽身,懂得好好爱护自己。
  不知道你有没有试过在深夜十二点,躺在空无一人的房间,看着黑暗一点点将身边的一切吞没,最后有连自己也被吞噬的感觉。心满满的,一块块撕开,全是想哭的温柔……在那个世界完全静下来的时刻,睁开眼,寂寞会像浮云一般掠过双眼,将世界与你隔开。闭上眼,屏住呼吸,静寂中会听到自己身体里血液在流动,那一刻的平静不需要任何修饰。然后,在尘埃停止飞舞的时刻,问问自己,你想要的究竟是什么?
  想起很多个下午,坐在地板上。窗外有很温暖的阳光,明亮却不灼人,和煦得想让人沉睡。太阳微微转换着角度,让一种虚有的悲哀不时袭向心头,无所谓感觉,无所谓痛苦。
  已经习惯了用微笑去掩饰腐坏的灵魂,习惯了在熙熙攘攘的人群里低着头大步向前走。
  生活中铺落着重叠的伤感。因为缺的太多而忘记了失去的感觉,因为怀念所以过得不好。
  现实很残酷。它让我付出很多,让我带着一大包希望去探询,但总把最多的失望送还给我。后来我便少了许多希望,开始去学怎么等待。我就那么静静盼望,盼望奇迹,我觉得我没有做错事,老天一定会疼我,但最终我错了。阳光在雨后会显得更强烈,我想是吧。而光不会照到每个角落,于是在角落里等待的人便显得有些不幸运。待等待不再奏效的时候我学会了拒绝与躲避,其实我没有恶意,只是觉得有点冷了,想躲一躲,避开风。
  寻找一份感动,在这个城市的上空…远处有歌。水色的音符纷扬…可惜我听不清楚。
  天空中有稀薄的浮云。走在拥挤的接头,迈着惺忪的步子,呆呆望着身旁的每个人,隐约看见他们上方悬着一个个透明的包裹——梦的包裹,他们不停地逐梦。是啊,在这个没有人愿意驻足,只为欣赏头顶彩虹的城市,许多东西如果不追寻就会像烟云般飘向天际,就不会回来了。之后,笑笑自己。也许我仅有着最卑微、最单纯而接近愚蠢的心思,最笨拙的伤害…
  梦终究给了我一个寓所,让我带着希望,也带上坚强。才了解到,人生每一道美丽的风景线,总有些不完整的遗憾。我们都站在红绿灯之下,偶尔停下,放下了错过了很多东西,之后向前走。错身而过的人,从熟悉变得陌生,从陌生变得熟悉…他们跌落在我的生命轨迹,然后,不告别地匆匆离开。
  时针静静旋转…物是人非。终于,我听清了那首歌:“你的影子无所不在/人的心像是一颗尘埃/落在过去飘向未来/掉进眼里就流出泪来”。忽然发现一丛向阳植物,在我手指的方向。看,它们把脑袋对着阳光,微笑。

水瓶座的传说

伊是特洛伊城的王子,是一位俊美不凡的少年。他的容貌是连神界都少有的。

伊不爱人间的女子,他深深爱着的是宙斯神殿里一位倒水的侍女。这个平凡的侍女曾经在一个夜晚用曼妙的歌声捕获了伊的心,也夺走了特洛伊城里所有女孩的幸福。

天界的那个女孩叫海伦,和特洛伊城里最美丽的女子海伦拥有同样美丽的名字。宙斯非常喜爱海伦,尽管她只是一个侍女。可是有一天,海伦无意中听到太阳神阿波罗和智慧女神雅典娜关于毁灭特洛伊城的决定,海伦不顾戒律赶去给王子伊报信。结果在半途中被发现,宙斯的侍卫们将海伦带回了神殿。宙斯不忍处死她,但决定好好惩罚她。在他的儿子阿波罗的提示下,宙斯决定将这份罪转嫁给与海伦私通的特洛伊王子身上。

这天,宙斯变做一只老鹰,降临在特洛伊城的上空。他一眼就看见在后花园中散步的王子。宙斯惊呆了,他见过许多美丽的女神和绝色的凡间女子,却从来没见过如此俊美的少年。宙斯被伊特别的气质深深吸引,一个罪恶的念头油然而生。他从天空俯冲下来,一把抓起伊,将他带回了神殿。

在冰冷的神殿,伊见不到家人也见不到海伦,他日渐憔悴。而宙斯却逼迫伊代替海伦为他倒水,这样他就可以天天见到这个美丽的男孩。宙斯的妻子女神赫拉是个嫉妒成性的女子,她看在眼里,怒在心头,她不仅嫉妒宙斯看伊时那样无耻的眼神,更嫉妒伊有着她都没有的美丽光华。于是赫拉心生毒计,决定加害这个无辜的王子。她偷偷将海伦放走,海伦自然要与伊私逃下界,这时她再当场将两人捉住。雅典娜明白这是赫拉的计谋,但也无能为力,被激怒的宙斯决定处死伊。然而,就在射手奇伦射出那致命一箭的刹那,侍女海伦挡在了伊的胸前!

眼看奸计没能得逞,赫拉恼羞成怒之下,将伊变成了一只透明的水瓶,要他永生永世为宙斯倒水。然而,水瓶中倒出来的却是眼泪!众神无不为之动容,于是宙斯变将伊封在了天上,作一个忧伤的神灵。

伊夜夜在遥远的天际流泪,人们抬头看时只见一群闪光的星星仿佛透明发亮的水瓶悬于夜空,于是叫它水瓶座

Relish the Moment

Tucked away in our subconsciousness is an idyllic vision. We see ourselves on a long trip that spans the continent. We are travelling by train. Out the windows, we drink in the passing scene of cars on nearby highways, of children waving on a crossing, of cattle grazing on a distant hillside, of smoke pouring from a power plant, of row upon row of corn and wheat, of flatlands and valleys, of mountains and rolling hillsides, of city skylines and village halls.
But the uppermost in our minds is the final destination. On a certain day at a certain hour, we will pull into the station. Bands will be playing and flags waving. Once we reach there, so many wonderful dreams will come true and the pieces of our lives will be fit together like a completed jigsaw puzzle. How restlessly we pace the aisles, damning the minutes loitering, waiting, waiting, waiting for the station.
"When we reach the station, that will be it", we cry. "When I'm 18", "When I buy a new 450SL Mercedes Benz", "When I put my last kid through collage", "When I have paid off the mortgage", "When I get a promotion", "When I reach the age of the retirement, I shall live happily ever after."
Sooner or later, we must realize that there is no station, no one place to arrive at once and for all. The true joy of life is the trip. The station is only a dream. It constantly outdistances us.
"Relish the moment" is a good motto, especially when coupled withe the Psalm 118:24:"This is the day which the Lord hath made, we will rejoice and be glad in it." It isn't the burdens of today that drive men mad. It is the regrets over yesterday and the fear of tommorrow. Reget and fear are twin thieves who rob us of today.
So stop pacing the aisles and counting the miles. Instead, climb more mountains, eat more icecreams, go barefoot more often, swim more rivers, watch more sunsets, laugh more and cry less. Life must be lived as we go along. Then the station will come soon enough.

The Zen of Cat

The Man was very sad. He knew that the Cat’s days were numbered.The doctor had said there wasn’t anything more that could be done,that he should take the Cat home and make him as comfortable as possible.
  The man stroked the Cat on his lap and sighed.The Cat opened his eyes, purred and looked up at the Man. A tear rolled down the Man’s cheek and landed on the Cat’s forehead.The Cat gave him a slightly annoyed look.
  “Why do you cry, Man?”the Cat asded.“Because you can’t bear the thought of losing me? Because you think you can never replace me?”The Man nodded “yes.”
  “And where do you think I’ll be when I leave you?”the Cat asked. The Man shrugged helplessly. “Close your eyes, Man,” the Cat said. The Man gave him a questioning look, but did as he was told.
  “What color are my eyes and fur?” the Cat asked. “Your eyes are gold and your fur is a rich, warm brown,” the Man replied.
  “And where is it that you most often see me?”asked the Cat. “I see you…on the kitchen windowsill watching the birds…on my favorite chair…on my desk lying on the papers I need…on the pillow next to my head at night.” “Then, whenever you wish to see me, all you must do is close your eyes,” said the Cat.
  “Pick up that piece of string from the floor——there, my ‘toy.’” The Man opened his eyes, then reached over and picked up the string. It was about two feet long and the Cat had been able to entertain himself for hours with it. “Now take each end of the string in one hand,” the Cat ordered. The Man did so.
  “The end in your left hand is my birth and the end in your right hand is my death. Now bring the two ends together,” the Cat said. The Man complied.
  “You have made a continuous circle,” said the cat.“Does any point along the string appear to be different, worse or better than any other part of the string?” The Man inspected the string and then shook his head “no.”
  “Close your eyes again,” the Cat said.“Now lick your hand.” The Man widened his eyes in surprise.
  “Just do it,” the Cat said.“Lick your hand,think of me in all my familiar places, think about all the pieces of string.”
  The Man felt foolish, licking his hand, but he did as he was told. He discovered what a cat must know, that licking a paw is very calming and allows one to think more clearly. He continued licking and the corners of his mouth turned upward into the first smile he had shown in days. He waited for the Cat to tell him to stop,and when he didn’t, he opened his eyes. The Cat’s eyes were closed.The Man stroked the warm, brown fur, but the Cat was gone.
  The Man shut his eyes hard as the tears poured down his face. He saw the Cat on the windowsill, then in his bed, then lying across his important papers. He saw him on the pillow next to his head, saw his bright gold eyes and darkest brown on his nose and ears. He opened his eyes and through his tears looked over at the circle of string he still held clutched in his hand.
  One day, not long after, there was a new Cat on his lap. She was a lovely calico and white…very different from his earlier beloved Cat and very much the same.

The gift of Love

If I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels, but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give away all my possessions, and if I hand over my body so that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Love never ends. But as for prophecies, they will come to an end; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will come to an end. For we know only in part, and we prophesy only in part; but when the complete comes, the partial will come to an end. When I was a child, I thought like a child; when I became and adult, I put an end to childish ways. For now we see in mirror, dimly, but then we will see face to face. Now I know only in part; then I will know fully, even as I have been fully known. And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love.

Love is the crux of a happy life

As we all know, love is the crux of a happy life.
Love helps us stay calm and serene even when things are tough.
It can carry us through the hard times.
Love looks for ways to be of service.
Love is enjoying the surprises of life,
and being totally delighted with what life gives you.
Love is the key to happiness
and it is a real blessing to others.  
People who love make the world a kind and gentle place and other people feel safe around them.
They appreciate differences instead of making them a cause for prejudice or fighting.
