the war.....
Do the leaders think about any civilians? This was my fist question when I saw this report.
I think it is going to more and more question come up to me.
Since Britain and America support Jew to establish in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, then it also has already extended hatred. Arabic in order that fight for Jerusalem how many wars have they made with Israel. Until now, the violent conflict with each other Arabs and Jews stating it was unable to arrive at a solution. But do both governments think about any civilians and I’m very confluence? This is religion conflict or civilized conflict? I really don’t know…..
The war is merciless and the bomb can’t distinguish who you are. The bomb will turn around when if see the civilians? What can I do for them; I think only prey for them and hope the war can be stop as soon as possible.

last writing assignment
Question 1:
I think we can’t say any people who have mentally ill or crazy just basin on their behavior. Because we are not professional psychiatrist, especially that person who we don’t know them much and this behavior also don’t respect them. For nowadays is not only 21st century but also civilized society, and our thoughts should be in many aspects no longer single way. Although, some countries still have some kind of factors so that lie in traditional and conservative society. The other countries do not to say, but we can say that homosexuality can be slowly accepted in Taiwan. In my opinion, there are not different any stereotypes that are common in America film or television in Chinese. Only different is they afraid to admit that they are the homosexual to their family, friends, and society, because fear to be isolation or group under have problematic people. In the film those homosexual is always tragedy in the end as Chinese. To capture the life is not the human’s job and should not be to do, either. Because they also are mortals, besides we are not the creator.
Question 3:
I think Taiwan is the same. I know I think this way is unfair to men, because man and woman are different in some characteristic. And we have been instilled into boy and girl what things should to do since childhood, even unwilling. Taking to holding hands walking down the street as an example, we always consider that this behavior execute on females are more acceptable than males. Actually, I don’t know either. But in my opinion, I cannot accept very much, males have the physical affection. If it is happening in socially, I can accept for it is concern about the social manners. No one wants to isolate in group and be a lonely one, because human cannot life without anyone, it means mankind is a gregarious animal.

The Negro Speaks of Rivers
The Negro Speaks of Rivers
by Langston Hughes
I've known rivers:
I've known rivers ancient as the world and older than the
flow of human blood in human veins.
My soul has grown deep like the rivers.
I bathed in the Euphrates when dawns were young.
I built my hut near the Congo and it lulled me to sleep.
I looked upon the Nile and raised the pyramids above it.
I heard the singing of the Mississippi when Abe Lincoln
went down to New Orleans, and I've seen its muddy
bosom turn all golden in the sunset.
I've known rivers:
Ancient, dusky rivers.
My soul has grown deep like the rivers.
=================================================
First time to read this poem I felt I have been love this poem, besides I’ve read it many time and suddenly realize Hughes used natural to express his idea, especially used the river. The river is always considered to be the cradle of civilization, such as China has the Yellow River, Egypt has the Nile, west Asia has the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, and Indian has Indus River. Furthermore, those ancient rivers are the older the human history, even human death its will be continuous. But I found up poet mentioned that river of the Euphrates, the Nile, and the Mississippi River; those rivers have the same common they were slaves, dark skinned property. Maybe poet with allusions the deep dusk rivers, the setting sun, sleep, and the soul want to show the image of death and, meanwhile, the ideal of deathlessness. Because generation to the next generation, just like the rivers the spirits and culture will continue on.

Another earthquake
Another earthquake
7.6-mafnitude earthquake at dawn Sunday killed at least two people and injured dozens more in remote eastern Indonesia. A series of powerful earthquake temblor damaged collapse hotel, cutting power lines and destroying buildings. It struck 4:43 a.m. local time. It sorry about some people death and some injured I wish our government could sent the rescue team to help them as they help us in 921. I think human being are facing the natural disaster and realize one’s so lowly.

Earthquake in Afghanistan
A 6.2-magnitude earthquake hits Afghanistan on Sunday. It struck at about 12:53 a.m. Fortunate, until now no deaths or damages were reported from the quake.
The earthquake let me remember 921 that night was so horrible and scary me. In beginning I thought someone tried to shake me up, but I was totally worse because it become stronger and stronger. Thank God we all were finding in whole house, just the house couldn’t live any more. Anyway, we were safe and living now.
Gas problem
the story
Russia cuts all natural gas supplies to Ukraine, both sides in contract stress that Western Europe will get energy. Because Russia cut all natural gas supplies to Ukraine after talks broke down over payments for past shipments and a new energy price contract for 2009. Meanwhile, disputes the fines and contends that Gazprom is unfairly refusing to accept a rise in transit fees while asking for higher gas prices for 2009.
I think this problem might be influence all the Europe because another reports said that Russia supplies gas decease year by year, besides disputes can’t settle the face of energy crisis. Therefore, it’s time to think about how to Sustainable Development not only gas but also all the energy in the world.

Life
Time goes by, no time to cry
But
Someone hand on to used to be live their lives looking behind
When all we have is here and now
All our lives out there to find where the clear winds blow and the eagles cry on a mountain high
The moment
Look at me I can see my life before me
Look round you know you must go for what you wanted
Look at all my friends who did and got what they deserved
But
Someone hand on to used to be live their lives looking behind
When all we have is here and now
All our lives out there to find where the clear winds blow and the eagles cry on a mountain high
The moment
Look at me I can see my life before me
Look round you know you must go for what you wanted
Look at all my friends who did and got what they deserved
Go…..?
We lived in the country when I was a child
We laughed away the hours, running to and brawl
Can you tell me?
Where did all the good times go?
I can still remember summer in the shade
But, I didn’t know what happened?
I can’t believe it and don’t know where to start?
Now and forever, until time is through
Who knows what tomorrow brings
Fallow the lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Eventually
I come home, home….
We laughed away the hours, running to and brawl

Fallow the lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Eventually
I come home, home….
Listening
Walking down the road
Distant memories are buried in the past forever
I stand on the court
Listening to the wind of change
Enjoying to the birds of sing around me
The wind blow straight into the face of time
Like a storm wind that will rind the freedom bell for peace of mind
Let our balalaika sing what my Guitar wants to say
The smooth sounds take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night to share our dreams with you and me
Listen…..
Distant memories are buried in the past forever
I stand on the court
Listening to the wind of change

On a glory night to share our dreams with you and me
Listen…..
With upon a star
No matter who you are there are no different
When you wish upon a star
As long as anything, anything in your heart desires
Will come true
Believe it, even has sorrow around you
Or in this time of fear
Hope seems like the summer bird too swiftly flown away
Must be believe it
Cause the fate is kind
She brings to those who love the sweet fulfillment of their secret longing
When you wish upon a star
Please open your door let her inShe can realize anything in your heart desires
Walking in the cloud
I’m walking in the cloud also floating in the moonlit sky
When I fly the people are sleeping
I’m finding I can fly and riding in the midnight blue
Ride on the wind across whole the world
The every villages, rivers, hills, forests, and streams go by like dreams
I ‘m surfing in the air and swimming in then frozen sky
Suddenly swooping low on an ocean deep
With thousands of sparkle stars
And everyone who sees I greets as we low
With full satisfied wish and pray

THEY
Under the gentle looks is the steel-and-iron confidence
Overfilling with love and retrospection in life
Burning themselves for children
Few words should have such a bosom of words like seas
Suring with emotions any time
This time I went to my sweet hometown, on my way a wonderful serenity fills my whole being, like these lovely morning which I enjoy with all my heart. I was so happy even I just quite alone, and pleased with my life in this countryside.
Thinking, realizing, contacting, and sense of familiar
How long did not going home? ......... I forget it…..><
However, this time I realized what was ting I lost, also need to found it out.
Wait for me……..!!

See
Another year has gone, I’m still all alone
Every day I sit and ask myself
How did feel slip away?
Something whispers in my ear and says
You are not alone
Cause you’ll be in my heart
From this day on now and forever more
No matter what they say, you’ll be here in my heart, always
Because, they can’t understand the way I feel
Hear the clock; it was morning that I felt so far from where I’ve been
Dreams last so long, even after you were gone
But I didn’t need another mountain and hillsides enough to climb
Also didn’t need another oceans and rivers enough to cross
Cause not just last till the end of time…..

Light up my life
How many night I sit by my window
I kept deep inside me, alone in the dark
But now, there something has come to me along
Bring the light and light up my life
Besides give me hope to carry on
I believe it’s can be wrong
No more waiting, no more aching
No more fighting, no more trying
Maybe there’s nothing more to say
However in a funny way I am so……calm
The moment it feels
So wonderful…
So beautiful…

Don't worry
Some people can be bad
The things they done, they things they said
Has made you sad when saw this world
However, WHY, WHY, WHY……………WORRY
There should be laughter after the pain
There should be sunshine after the rain
There things have always been the same
Therefore, don’t be worry
Smile, a magical and everlasting word
A smile could bring you near to me
Please, don’t ever let me find you gone
Cause that would bring a tear to me
When the world has lost its glory
Let’s start a brand new story
Go on
Go on go on
What you got they can’t steal it, even they can’t feel it
You could have flow away to a place that has to be believed to be seen
Now, you are a singing bird in an open cage that will only fly, fly for freedom
You fly away
When will I see you again and will we share precious moments?
All that you can leave behind
All that you fashion, make, build, measure, teal, reason, sense, and speak
Everything you can leave behind
Go on go on…
What you got they can’t steal it, even they can’t feel it
You could have flow away to a place that has to be believed to be seen
