There is no denying that we should do as the Romans do when in Rome.What counts is not the place where we study, but what we can learn.Slow and steady wins the race. as the story of rabbit and tortoise.it's story that tortoise went off jogging along ,without a moment's stopping ,at his usual steady pace and become be winner. and you? come on.

    VATICAN CITY - Pope Benedict XVI urged the faithful to set aside time in their lives for God and the needy, as he ushered in Christmas early Tuesday by celebrating Midnight Mass in St. Peter's Basilica.

    Echoing a theme he has raised about an increasingly secular world, Benedict said that many people act as if there is no room for spiritual matters in their lives.

    "Man is so preoccupied with himself, he has such urgent need of all the space and all the time for his own things, that nothing remains for others, for his neighbor, for the poor, for God," he said.

    Benedict also used the homily to link the Christmas message to the church's growing environmental concerns, referring to early theologians who interpreted Christ's role as also a healer of the Earth and universe.

    "He came to restore beauty and dignity to creation, to the universe: This is what began at Christmas and makes the angels rejoice. The Earth is restored to good order by virtue of the fact that it is opened up to God ... Thus Christmas is a feast of restored creation."

    Under Benedict, the Vatican has been taking steps toward greater environmental action, a key element of which has been its involvement in reforestation project aimed at offsetting its carbon emissions.

    ‘Do we have time and space for God?’
    In a homily delivered in Italian in front of thousands packing the basilica, Benedict asked the faithful to make room for God, as well as the less fortunate, in their lives.

    "Do we have time for our neighbor who is in need of a word from us, from me, or in need of my affection? For the sufferer who is in need of help? For the fugitive or the refugee who is seeking asylum? Do we have time and space for God?"

    Benedict drew parallels between what he perceives as modern society's refusal of God and the story of how Jesus was born in a manger because there was no space for his family at a nearby inn.

    "In some way, mankind is awaiting God, waiting for him to draw near. But when the moment comes, there is no room for him," he said.

    But the message of Jesus' birth, which is marked on Christmas, is also that "God does not allow himself to be shut out," Benedict said. "He finds a space, even if it means entering through the stable; there are people who see his light and pass it on."

    Tradition meet digital age
    Earlier, as Midnight Mass began, Benedict blessed the crowd of pilgrims, Romans and tourists, as he walked in a procession up the main aisle to the central altar, which was decorated with red poinsettia flowers.

    As a choir sang, Benedict sprinkled incense on the altar under Bernini's massive bronze baldachin before opening the service with the traditional wish for peace in Latin: "Pax vobis" ("Peace be with you"). The faithful responded: "Et cum spiritu tuo." ("And also with you.")

    Four children, some in native costume from their countries, brought flowers to the altar, placing them near a statue depicting baby Jesus as Benedict, dressed in white and gold-colored robes, joined a choir in a hymn.

    For those unable to get into the midnight service there were giant screens set up in St. Peter's Square, which was made festive with a twinkling Christmas tree and the Vatican's Nativity scene.

  • Angle of Baby is own mum.

    2007-11-17

     
     
    Once upon a time there was a child ready to be born. So one day he asked God,"They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"

    　　God replied,"Among the many angels, I chose one for you. She will be waiting for you and will take care of you."

    　　But the child wasn't sure he really wanted to go."But tell me, here in Heaven, I don't do anything else but sing and smile, that's enough for me to be happy."

    　　"Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day. And you will feel your angel's love and be happy

    　　"And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me,"the child continued,"if I don't know the language that men talk?"

    　　God patted him on the head and said,"Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak."

    　　"And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"

    　　But God had an answer for that question too."Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray."

    　　"I've heard that on earth there are bad men, who will protect me?

    　　"Your angel will defend you even if it means risking her life!"

    　　"But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore,"the child continued warily.

    　　God smiled on the young one."Your angel will always talk to you about me and will teach you the way for you to come back to me, even though I will always be next to you."

    　　At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from earth could already be heard. The child knew he had to start on his journey very soon. He asked God one more question, softly,"Oh God, if I am about to leave now, please tell me my angel's name."

    　　God touched the child on the shoulder and answered,"Your angel's name is not hard to remember. You will simply call her Mommy."　　

    　　上帝的完美安排：孩子的守护天使

    　　从前，有个孩子马上就要诞生了。因此有一天他问上帝：“听说明天你就送我去人间了，但是，我这么弱小和无助，我在那儿怎么生活呢？”

    　　上帝答道：“在众多的天使中，我特别为你挑了一位。她会守候你、无微不至地照顾你。”

    　　小孩还是拿不准自己是否真的想去。“但是在天堂，我除了唱唱笑笑外，什么也不做。这就足以让我感到幸福了。”

    　　“你的天使每天会为你唱歌，为你微笑。你会感受她的爱，并且因此而幸福。”

    　　“如果我不懂人类的语言，他们对我说话时，我怎么听得懂呢？”孩子继续问道

    　　上帝轻轻地拍了一下孩子的脑袋说：“你的天使会对你说最最美丽、最最动听的话语，而这些都是你从未听过的。她会不厌其烦地教你说话。”

    　　“如果我想与你说话怎么办？”

    　　上帝胸有成竹地回答：“你的天使会将你的双手合拢，教你如何祈祷。

    　　“听说尘世有很多坏蛋，谁来保护我呢？”

    　　“即使冒着生命危险，你的天使也会保护你的。”

    　　“但是见不到你，我会难过的。”小孩小心翼翼说道。

    　　听到这儿，上帝对着小孩笑了。“尽管我会一直陪伴你左右，你的天使仍会提起我，教你重返天堂之路。”

    　　此时，天堂一片宁静，凡间的声音已可听到，小孩明白自己得赶紧上路了。 他又轻声问了最后一个问题，“哦，上帝，假如我现在就出发，请你告诉我，我的天使叫什么名字。”

    　　上帝把手放在小孩的肩上，答道：“你的天使的名字很容易记住， 你就叫她——妈妈。”

  • Beautiful Smile and Love(mother teresa)

    2007-11-16

     

    in fact, i am very sad today.i don't find her who is a badly woman.however, her attitude was made me unhappy. in this world, why are there exist this person who very dislike. if i am a policewoman, i will catch her to imprisonment.

    So,i wanna my mother who is a kindness woman.if that bad women like my mother, which i will have many mother in whole world. nobody probable bully to me while i don't feel very lonely.

    when i was unhelpful that i want to classmates and families. of course , and my friends.

    time will turn true.my friend is only helper, my families is only relier and my classmates is only hone.

    Pls kindly see below this opus.you feel very happy here.

    The poor are very wonderful people. One evening we went out and we picked up four people from the street. And one of them was in a most terrible condition－and I told the sisters: You take care of the other three. I take care of this one who looked worse. So I did for her all that my love can do. I put her in bed, and there was such a beautiful smile on her face. She took hold of my hand as she said just the words “Thank you.” and she died.

    I could not help but examine my conscience before her and I asked what would I say if I was in her place. And my answer was very simple. I would have tried to draw a little attention to myself. I would have said I am hungry, that I am dying, I am cold, I am in pain, or something, but she gave me much more－she gave me her grateful love. And she died with a smile on her face. So did that man whom we picked up from the drain, half eaten with worms, and we brought him to the home. “I have lived like an animal in the street, but I am going to die like an angel, loved and cared for,” And it was so wonderful to see the greatness of that man who could speak like that, who could die like that without blaming anybody, without cursing anybody, without comparing anything. Like an angel－this is the greatness of our people. And that is why we believe what Jesus had said: I was hungry－I was naked－I was homeless－I was unwanted, unloved, uncared for－and you did it to me.

    I believe that we are not real social workers. We may be doing social work in the eyes of the people, but we are really contemplatives, in the heart of the word. For we are touching the body of Christ twenty-four hours… And I think that in our family we don’t need bombs and guns, to destroy, to bring peace－just get together, love one another, bring that peace, that joy, that strength of presence of each other in the home. And we will be able to overcome all the evil that is in the world.

    And with this prize that I received as a Prize of Peace, I am going to try to make the home for many people who have no home. Because I believe that love begins at home, and if we can create a home for the poor I think that more and more love will spread. And we will be able through this understanding love to bring peace, be the good news to the poor. The poor in our own family first, in our country and in the world. To be able to do this, our Sisters, our lives have to be woven with prayer. They have to be woven with Christ to be able to understand, to be able to share. Because to be woven with Christ is to be able to understand, to be able to share. Because today there is so much suffering… When I pick up a person from the street, hungry, I give him a plate of rice, a piece of bread, I have satisfied. I have removed that hungry. But a person who is shut out, who feels unwanted, unloved, terrified, the person who has been thrown out from society－that poverty is so full of hurt and so unbearable… And so let us always meet each other with a smile, for the smile is the beginning of love, and once we begin to love each other naturally we want to do something.

     

    美丽的微笑与爱心

    穷人时非常了不起的人。一天晚上，我们外出，从街上带回了四个人，其中一个生命岌岌可危。于是我告诉修女们说：“你们照料其他三个，这个濒危的人就由我来照顾了。”这样，我为她做了我的爱所能做的一切。我将她放在床上，看到她脸上绽露出如此美丽的微笑。她握着我的手，只说了句“谢谢您”就死了。

    我情不自禁地在她面前审视起自己的良知来。我问自己，如果我是她的话，会说些什么呢?答案很简单，我会尽量引起旁人对我的关注，我会说我饥饿难忍，冷得发抖，奄奄一息，痛苦不堪，诸如此类的话。但是她给我的却更多更多——她给了我她的感激之情。她死了，脸上却带着微笑。我们从排水道带回的那个男子也是如此。但是，他几乎全身都快被虫子吃掉了，我们把他带回了家。“在街上，我一直像个动物一样地活着，但我将像个天使一样地死去，有人爱，有人关心。”真是太好了，我看到他的伟大之处，他竟然能说出那样的话。他那样地死去，不责怪任何人，不诅咒任何人，无欲无求。像天使一样——这便是我们的人民的伟大之所在。因此我们相信耶稣所说的话——我饥肠辘辘——我衣不蔽体——我无家可归——我不为人所要，不为人所爱，也不为人所关心——然而，你却为我做了这一切。

    我想，我们算不上真正的社会工作者。在人们的眼中，或许我们是在做社会工作，但实际上，我们真的只是世界中心的修行者。因为一天24小时，我们都在触摸基督的圣体……我想，在我们的大家庭里，我们不需要枪支和炮弹来破坏和平，或带来和平——我们只需要团结起来，彼此相爱，将和平、欢乐以及每一个家庭成员灵魂的活力都带回世界。这样，我们就能战胜世界上现存的一切邪恶。

    我准备以我所获得的诺贝尔和平奖奖金为那些无家可归的人们建立自己的家园。因为我相信，爱源自家庭，如果我们能为穷人建立家园，我想爱便会传播得更广。而且，我们将通过这种宽容博大的爱而带来和平，成为穷人的福音。首先为我们自己家里的穷人，其次为我们国家，为全世界的穷人。为了做到这一点，姐妹们，我们的生活就必须与祷告紧紧相连，必须同基督结合一体才能互相体谅，共同分享，因为同基督结合一体就意味着相互体谅，共同分享。因为在今天的世界上仍然有如此多的苦难存在……当我从街上带回一个饥肠辘辘的人时，给他一盘米饭，一片面包，我就能使他心满意足了，我就能驱除他的饥饿。但是，如果一个人露宿街头，感到不为人所要，不为人所爱，惶恐不安，被社会抛弃——这样的贫困让人心痛，如此令人无法忍受……因此，让我们总使微笑相见，因为微笑就是爱的开端，一旦我们开始彼此自然地相爱，我们就会想着为对方做点什么了。

  • The moderm Woman

    2007-11-16

    Traditionally, when a man invites a woman out on a date, he picks her up at her home, pays all the expenses for the evening, and takes her home at the end of the evening. Prior to Women's Liberation, the woman was expected to sit at home by the phone and wait and hope for the man of her dreams to call her. Today's liberated woman may take the initiative in suggesting an evening together by inviting a man she likes to a party, to a home-cooked meal, or to an evening at the theatre. If she does the inviting, she pays for at least part of the evening's expenses. Often, a man and a woman who are friends but not romantically involved go out together Dutch treat, which means that each person pays his or her own way.

    Today many men working in the U.S.A. have a female boss. Those who come from countries in which the woman's place is still in the home may find it difficult to take orders from a woman. But in the U.S.A, 49% of the work force is female, and many women are judges, doctors, company presidents, college presidents, and entrepreneurs. It is important for men to respect a person who holds a position of responsibility and authority, whether that person is male or female. To treat a woman as inferior just because she is female is not only insulting but also out of step with contemporary American culture.

  • ya, expressing ideas.

    2007-11-15

    linda:I find it really hard to express myself. I have lots of ideas, but they never seem to come out of my mouth.

    M:let me give you a little advice. You know what the topics are going to be, so prepares what you would like to say in advance.

    A; I often do, but I’m worried about the responses from other people.

    B: you have to be realistic. Not everyone is going to agree with you, but people will respect your opinion and they will respect the fact that you have contributed something to the discussion.

    A: I’m worried that what I say will not make sense.

    B; we could chat about the topic before . I could check that what you want to say is logical and it would also give you a chance to practice speaking.

    A; that’s a good idea. What should I do if I am in two minds about a topic?

    B: that’s easy. Express possibilities. People will think that you are pretty smart to be able to look at the topic from more than one angle.

    A: I didn’t realize that speaking could be so easy.

    B: the most difficult thing is being able to predict what other people will say. They will reply to your statements, but you can’t be sure how.

     

                             

    Thanks for your advice.

  • a kind of life will never come back.

    2007-11-13

        I wanna my mother-school.

    when i know that kind of life will never come back and whenever i thought about that, thought about the life----my Middle school life that i spend with my classmates, i got really really epressed.while, try to look forward, my teacher. I felt very happiness these day.

     

    I think i need to find a man.you don't understand a woman forever.

    a man doesn't need to understand a woman much often, all he needs to do is love her if he really cares for her. to be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little. to be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all. and give up her.so i hope that you can find your really love. if you were falt love with a kindly girl , had no reason.

    you can call telephone  and tell his\her your mood,if you want to your classmates teachers and family.i'm sure that you will have a good day here.
