Translation Of A Tang Dynasty Poem(一)

游子吟
孟郊
慈母手中线,
游子身上衣。
临行密密缝,
意恐迟迟归。
谁言寸草心,
报得三春晖。

Song Of A Traveling Son
By Meng Jiao
Needle and thread in the hands of a dear mama
Makes clothes for her boy who is leaving.
Carefully she sews and thoroughly she mends,
Be afraid that her son will delay for home.
Even daylily also have love,
But how can they repay sun for three spring months of light?

When you are ready for the image click the little camera icon in the little utility bar just below ENTRY it is in the image below with blue square around it. The ADD AN IMAGE window will then pop up.It usually works better to click the [Choose File] just below Upload an image.

Attention...a Need or a Whim??

Why do we like to have attention paid to us? Is it a need or just a whim? Maybe a desire to be noticed and appreciated?Everybody likes to get attention, even trying to deny it you can't hide the smile from your face when a handsome man pays a compliment to you or your boss says you are one of the best employees. A huge wave of pleasant emotions surge up in you the moment you hear some nice words or just feel the appreciation of others (though some of us may blush and feel embarrassed but...what

Teach what you know, learn what you don't.

That was a quotation I took down in my notebook yesterday morning while I was reading an old issue of an American magazine. "Teach what you know, learn what you don't." I thought, that quotation is appropriate to write here.As we live, we learn. We learned many things since our childhood. Those were all stored up in our brain. One way or the other, we impart to others what we had already learned - whether we are aware of it or not. And, maybe, some of those were good ones that touched and enrich
