We tend to wonder what we don’t know and envy what we don’t own.

For me, it is very true. I don’t live near a sea, and in my culture there is very a little part about sea culture. So the first time I read about sea culture, a dream of visiting the real open sea was pregnant in my mind. As time goes by, it grows strongly, as if I could fly all my romantic dreams at the vast sea.

To have a dream, you can feel sweet in heart; and to realize a dream, you will feel happy and excited, even if it is just

When I was in Khartoum, the Capital of the Sudan, I found a small book which has an attractive title; (Learn English in 4 Days without a Teacher), in a very local bookshop, there are some words and phrases translated in Arabic Language in the book.

Milan, sitting in front of the window, looking at the spring outside, fell into a deep thought. This morning she received a letter from Grandma, in which she read out much love and worry as well other than some words.
Here goes the letter:

FOR ALWAYS  which  is sung  by STEVE  BALSAMO is a fantastic song . What's  your opinion about  this perfomer with unbelievable  abilities  in expression?

You adore nature

And I adore you

You wrote poems

And I read you

Genuine, Spontaneous, and True

They were all you

My words are poor

But my admiration is full

Reading you I feel moved

Wish I was born

In your time

And closer to you

You didn’t know me

But I do love you

You know

You were so cool

This is for you, my loved poet——Tao Yuanming~

sincerely

Suddenly at 3:00 am, as suddenly as she started, the crying stopped. We looked at each other. Relief was clearly written on our faces. Gently I put the baby back on her sleeping cot. She looked so peaceful. We took a few more minutes and just trying to savour the moment.

After a while, we tip toed from her cot. I decided to leave the sleeping lamp on and left the door

Years ago, in my teenage, I was invited to visit a temple which was hidden in a big mountain together with several girls. Since I seldom go outing, I didn’t know what should I prepare, and I thought they would take care of me, so I started off without any preparation.

At the half hill, I felt so tired that when we stopped to rest I fell asleep, waking up only to find I was alone and lost. Worries wrapped me, and I had to walk along the road, in the hope of finding them. After a while, I felt very

Rainy Day

As I lay here and I wonder

Just what to do today

The sun outside has disappeared

Those clouds have hidden it away

The rain is surely falling

The birds are silent in their homes

Yet nature she’s still calling

I will never be alone

I’m very rarely planning

Because plans do twist and turn

There is never such a sure thing

When its knowledge I do yearn

I put a smile back on my face

I know the sun will soon return

A day is still worth living

A day can sti
