Karma and Religion
A few days ago, my teacher said, perhaps you could write some stories surrounding yourselves with Karma, if you wanted.As I know, Karma has special meaning in Buddhism and Hinduism, not to mention Taoism. It depends on different cultures and religions, so it has different explanation from them.
Although I am not intrested in religion when I was young, I used to think that people needed to do good things to help strangers as often as you could and even should not do something tiny harmful things. Furthermore there are some religions instructions that is people belive the sum of good and bad actions in our life. May decide their fate in the next or forseeable future.
For example when something happens that would be hard to explain in science and technology, such as life comes full circle when good people could have success in life easily. According to a religions explanation, they had done a lot of good things in past, so they could get what they deserved .
On the other hand, if you have done many crimes violations of society, sometimes you would find it hard yo imagine how terrible the punishment could be. You may have earned the bad things that happened to you. It is not an accidental phenomena. It was call "karma " live, old , ill, dead ,all kinds of results that all fallow this rule.
Actually, most religions, they have always encourged people to spontaneously to the poor make donations to charity and do your best helping people anonymously . Do not require someone pay it forward. It would reduce your retribution for sin ,then you could have a peaceful spirit good health success including your family ,even your next genaration. Similarly, you should help someone who has already helped you.

After seeing the movie " Dances with Wolves "
If I saw the movie with my own language subtitle . I thought I could catch more than 90% of the meaning , but it would not help me to learn English . However , I knew how to write afterwards in Chinese , but when I wanted to write something about what I saw and how I felt after watching this film with English . I have totally no idea , and it is very difficult to start and easy to get frustrated .
I could not believe that twenty years have passed since I first saw this movie . I was a senior high school student at that time , and this was one of the first movies I ever saw that won a lot of Oscars. I thought it would be a great movie and incredibly powerful . However I could understand the most of the meaning on this movie due to the teacher's introduction had already been introduced . This masterpiece novel was written by Michael Blake , and this successful film was made by Kevin Costnes .
From the opening scene , I felt Dunbar was brave , affective , intellectual , energetic , and honourable . I wondered why he was a suicidal soldier at that character . Maybe the healthcare was poor , he was unwilling to stay alive with sacrific of principles or honour , so if he had to have his leg amputated , there was nothing better than die in the Civil War . Actually , he did not die , on the contrary , those soldiers' spirit was encouraged by his suicidal riding along the enemy entrenchment . It seemed like a crazy idea and then it all went on unexpected development .
Later on , Dunbar took his post , faithfully performed his duties , awaited his relief , gradually becoming more and more comfortable in his surrounding . Most importantly things , he had a amazing friendships with the Sioux tribe and a wild wolf . Nonetheless , a friendship between an early American soldier and the Sioux tribe had never been done before , so this was a major accomplishment and a major contribution to our knowledge of American cultural history . And on top of that I believed this movie delivered a message about American history better than any book did , and the other thing we should not forget quickly . There was majesty in freedom , and that was taken away from many Indians , not just the Sioux . Native Americans were people , just like us , trying to survive and raising their children in a dangerous and changing world . They only killed when it was necessary : self-defense , protection of their land , beliefs , and so on , they could hate , love laugh and cry . This movie also showed that their societied had bouth good and bad in them , no different than us . When they murdered and scalped the white men and killed and skinned those buffalos , It made me flesh creep .

What My Friend Learned About Fighting
Personal experience often taught us leasons about life . When something unusual happens , we may change our attitude toward a person or a situation . Or we may find out something about ourselves , about others , or about the world . My friend told me he is a person who has hated to fight since he was six years old .
About twenty years ago , when he was living in Pineapple Village in my hometown , his parents inherited that house and three acres pineapple farm from his ancestors , so his parents worked hard from morning till night . However , they never became rich , and his parents did not have much time to take care of children . They had to stay at home , older children had to take care of younger ones . It was no reason , so older sister and brother needed to take more responsible in the house .
You knew , boys are always mischievous when they are younger . My friend had four brothers . The older brother took care of those boys , it was not a thankful task , because sometime you may have squabbles between sibling while parents were not at home , and going out to do farming . Not only farmer should have many agricultural utensils , sickles , but also you could see choppers and different kind of kinfes put on the shelf in front of yard , including my friend .
Children used to play in a big area near the shelf . One day , his brother played a trick on him , he hated it when anybody cheating him . At the beginning , they just disagreed with each other . Finally there was a big noise , and then all hell broke loose , so he had to struggle physically with his brother . His brother was big enough , and he could get away guickly . He lost his temper with his brother , and shouted at him . Suddenly , he was out of control , even though he knew he should not pick up a medium size of fitchen knief randomly , and threw it at his brother . Well , it did sound very , very weird . He said :[ He was very young , so he did not have too much strength . He was not able to trow it too far . ]

吱‧‧‧吱‧‧‧吱‧‧‧ 翻滾吧!香腸
吱吱‧‧‧吱吱‧‧‧一陣香噴噴的味道湧上心頭,心中幻想著家鄉味,其實也不是什麼山珍海味,只是穿上薄紗後,經過風乾後的瘦長肉團,添加一些不容易壞掉的好味道。小時後只要有它可以吃上好幾碗飯,直到體重嚴重超過標準值後,愛漂亮的我只好每天祈禱它不再出現在菜桌上,如今又成為腦海回味的好味道。這是一個奇妙的感覺。
真的,人有時候什麼東西都可以忘掉,什麼東西都可以放下,但是味覺確是不易忘掉的。從出生味覺的眷戀對我們來說就是很重要的!僅管在外地可以找到相同名稱的東西,但聰明的舌頭會跟你說它不是你要的東西,大腦可以創造出很多味道,但心底還是會爭扎的想把小時後吃過的味道大街小巷的翻遍把它揪出來。那就是香味傳遍千里的《香腸》。

【食材再好 廚藝不佳】
今天大兒子說了一句"轟動武林","驚動萬教"的一句名言,《就算食材再好廚藝不佳也沒有用》,只是浪費而已。兒子阿:"做老媽的想說一句話,我的廚藝不好將好的食材做成佳餚,都跑到你的肚子裡了。當然我也知道經過八小時後的消化過濾,會被你那無情的食指把它沖到大海裡。你真是有大廚師的天賦,這麼大的道理都懂,何不就讀餐飲管理阿?朝著你的大方向走你一定會很有成就的。我就知道忍之所無能忍,必有驚人之語?!
