• Power of Education

  2008-5-20

   

  After detraining, I elbowed my way to a crowded bus. The back of a bus,as a rule, was relatively spacious. So, I tried my best to squeeze through the shoulders to the back of it. The crowd didn’t stop being clamorous until the bus started off. The window near me was open and the wind was blowing towards me while the bus was galloping. The feeling was marvelous.

  Suddenly, my attention was drawn from the cool tremendous feeling to the fellows sitting near me. One was a kid some ten years old and the other was a guy in 30 or so. They were having a conversation freely. At first sight, I thought a son and his father were talking about some interesting topic. What I heard unmeant later, however, proved I was wrong. All this just happened between two strangers---a 30-year-old guy and a 10-year-old kid! I was extremely amazed at the rapport they’d established, because they were talking the way the acquaintances usually do. What was more, their topics, which spanned many fields, were totally beyond my expectation, say, occupation, English, love, responsibility, etc. If I were asked to have a talk with one of them, it would never have caused such a good effect, I bet.

  At that time I couldn’t help thinking of that of my own. To level with you, when I was that age, I could hardly think or even knew so much. What I knew was just playing and doing what the teachers and parents ordered. Nothing else! I couldn’t talk with my parents so freely, let alone a stranger who was my parents’ age.

  Here, I really appreciate the ability that the children have today to communicate with others, which, I think, is due to the education not only from school but also from their parents and family. Parents of these kids largely have better education than ours do.

  Education can indeed make our behavīor and manner elegant and refined.

• This Year Isn’t As Lucky As the Number Appears

  This Year Isn’t As Lucky As the Number Appears          

  2008---a lucky number in Chinese’s eyes, which we awe very much, because we think it will bring us Chinese fortune. At the very beginning of this year, however, a sudden heavy snow covered southern part of China, a mass of area, and hindered many means of transportation, which impeded many many jobber boys who yearned to go home for a gathering with their family, in the train stations, bus stations, airports, etc. Thousands of them had no choice but linger on there, which affected millions of hearts.

  However, today, several months after that, an unexpected disaster raided again! A precipitate heavy earthquake attacked Sichuan Province and many other circumjacent areas, resulted in ashes of buildings, death, the dying, and the wounded. Without having seen the pictures token at the spot, I could really hardly imagine the occasions. There are too many scenes for us to remember, too many moving stories that touch us deeply, and too many people whom we should give our regards to. As regards the coming of the disaster, we could do nothing. But we can do what we can to reduce the damage and loss to the lowest degree. Posters can be seen everywhere in campus, aiming at advocating and calling on people to donate what they can to help our brothers and sisters who need them urgently. As far as I know, broadcast stations, TV stations, newspapers, Internet and everything that can deliver the spirits are doing their best. At least, there are many charity activities held here in the city where I study in. Some people cannot live a comfortable life themselves, but they did; some disabled who even doesn’t have a leg went to the spot and did the donation. The hearts across the whole nation, whose citizens have great national cohesion, are doing their best to release the situation. Although we are far from each other in geography, our hearts are always linked together. One nation, one dream, one sky!

  Individual’s power is limited and slender, but thousands of individuals’ power cohering together is strong and terrible enough to conquer the disaster. Everyone, no matter who you are, wherever you are, whatever you do, let’s make joint efforts to help them rebuild their new homeland; let’s send our best regards and wishes to those who are undergoing the suffering and those who are bravely healing the wounded and rescuing the dying there. I believe, as long as our will is unity, it is an impregnable stronghold to ward off the evil and misfortune, and that China will make a string of hits after the recovery from this disaster.
