Where Rainbows End



At the end of a storm, there is a rainbow, but at the end of the rainbow, there is sunshine...At every end, there is always a new beginning. In Life, There is always HOPE. If it's not alright, it's not the end. Begin with an End in mind

Do not take anything as being forever, because forever is only as long as today.

The people who are the richest are not those who have the most, but those who need the least.

We are at our strongest when life is at its worst, and at our weakest when life no longer offers a challenge.

It is wiser not to expect, but to hope, for in expecting you ask for disappointment, whereas in hoping, you invite surprise.

Unhappiness doesn't come from not having something you want, but from the lack of something inside that you need.

There are things to hold and things to let go, and letting go doesn't mean you lose, but that you acquire that which has been waiting around the corner.

Remember to use your dreams as a way of knowing yourself better, and as an inspiration to reach for your star.

世界上最遥远的距离 泰戈尔



世界上最遥远的距离
不是生与死
而是 我就站在你面前
你却不知道我爱你

世界上最遥远的距离
不是我就站在你面前
你却不知道我爱你
而是 明明知道彼此相爱
却不能在一起

世界上最遥远的距离
不是明明知道彼此相爱
却不能在一起
而是 明明无法抵挡这股想念
却还得故意装作丝毫没有把你
放在心里

世界上最遥远的距离
不是明明无法抵挡这股想念
却还得故意装作丝毫没有把你
放在心里
而是  用自己冷漠的心
对爱你的人
掘了一道无法跨越的沟渠

Choice



Before you flip a coin to take a side,you need to take one side to stand for a decision.You cannot flip another coin to decide which is which.You have to decide to decide.You have to decide not to decide.You have to decide what to decide.To know what you have already decided before you flip a coin to decide, just flip it.If you are happy with its outcome, that was your decision.If you are unhappy with the outcome, that was not.You can still choose the happier decision.Your existential burden and freedom of choicecannot be transferred to a coin, or anything else.It is yours and yours alone.Even letting someone decide is your personal decision.Even ignoring the decision to be made is your personal decision.You might as well increase your wisdom to decide well.

Moles and what they say about you


First, check your face for any moles, and then look at the diagram above to identify the number(s) that are a closest match to the moles on your face. Usually, the moles only hold meaning for you if they are prominent and they are the only one. If your face if full of spots, acne or "little" moles, they do not count. When you've ascertained which position corresponds to the mole on your face, look up the meanings listed by numbers below.

Position 1 to 3
As a child, you are somewhat rebellious and a free spirit. You have an innate creativity and work best when youare given a free hand. Generally, your superiors like your avante garde approach to life. If you have a mole here, you are far better off in business and being your own boss rather than working for somebody. What is promising is that you have the luck to be your own boss.

Position 4
You are an impulsive person, often acting with a flamboyance that gives you charisma and a sparkling personality, but you can be difficult when there are too many opinions. You tend to be rather argumentative, but never to the point of holding grudges. This mole tends to give you an explosive temper and should you decide to remove it, you will find yourself becoming calmer and more atpeace with the world.
Position 5
A mole above the eyebrow indicates that there is wealth luck in your life, but you will need to earn it and work harder than most people. All the income you make must be carefully kept as there are people who are jealous of you who might attempt to sweet talk you into parting with your wealth. Be wary of those who try to interest you in get-rich-quick schemes. If you have a mole here, it isadvisable not to be too trusting of others. Follow your instincts and be caut ious. And never allow other people to control your finances.

Position 6
A mole here indicates intelligence, creativity and skill as an artist. Your artistic talent can bring you wealth, fame and success. It also indicates wealth luck, but this can only be fully realized if you follow your heart rather than stick to conventional means of making a living. Success will come if you are brave.

Position 7
Moles under the eyebrows indicate arguments within the extended family that cause you grief and unhappiness.This will affect your work and livelihood. It is advisable to settle any differences you have with your relatives if you want peace of mind to move ahead.

Position 8
This is not a very good position for a mole. Your financial position will constantly be under strain because of a tendency to overspend. You also have a penchant for gambling. The only thing is you must know when to stop.Meanwhile, someone with a mole here has a tendency to flirt with members of the opposite sex as well as withthe same sex. Better be a little discerning where you exert your charms, or you might get into trouble.

Position 9
This mole position suggests sexual and other problems. It is an unfortunate mole and you are well advised to get rid of it. It brings a litany of woes and a parade of problems.

Position 10
A mole here just under the nose indicates excellent descendants luck. You are surrounded by family at all timesand will have many children and grandchildren. You have the support of those close to you and will be both materially and emotionally fulfilled.

Position 11
Moles here suggest a tendency to succumb to illness. It is a good idea to have this mole removed especially ifit is a large, dark-coloured mole. Otherwise use lots of foundation to cover it.

Position 12
A mole here foretells a successful but also a very balanced life. You are likely to be not just rich, but famous as well. But although you have every opportunity to live the high life, you will have a satisfying home and family life as well. Women with moles here are particularly lucky and tend to be beautiful and glamourous as well.

Position 13
Your children will be a big worry in your life. Your relationship with them is not good. There is nothing much you can do about this except to learn some tolerance.

Position 14
A mole here suggests a vulnerability to food which can be a big problem in your life. You may have allergies against certain foods or you may simply be eating too much.

Position 15Y
ou are a person always on the move and constantly renovating and redesigning your house. You like to be introduced to new things and see new places. You are not happy if you remain in one place for long. You enjoy travel and adventure, and have a very observant eye.

Position 16
You need to be careful when it comes to eating, and also when it comes to your sex life. These are your two biggest problems. You tend to have weight issues which can make you depressed. You enjoy romance, sometimes with more than one person, but because you are a person with some morality, you will feel guilty about it and this will cause you much stress.

Position 17
You will be someone of great social prominence. You are active on the social scene and an excellent conversationalist. There is a tendency to become bigheaded about your success, which could lose you your good name. This will affect you deeply because you draw your confidence and self worth from what others think of you.

Position 18
You are a person always on the move. There is a great deal of overseas travel in your life, but you should take extra care each time you cross the great waters, as your mole prefers you to stay at home.

Position 19
You have money luck and many good friends, so this is a good mole to have. Your weakness is that you tend to succumb to the charms of the opposite sex. In your life, it is this that could get you into hot water, so do cool your ardour!

Position 20
A mole here can be very lucky or very unlucky. If you have a mole here, you are destined either for extreme fame or infamy. You have great flair for creativity and are also highly intelligent, but your talents can be used for both good and bad. You are not a person to be trifled with for you are no pushover and do not forgive and forget easily. This mole is a mark of someone who will go down in history either as a great or as a tyrant.

Position 21
This is a good mole, as it suggests plenty to eat and drink throughout your life. This mole also brings fame and recognition.

Position 22
Your life is always happy and things go smoothly for you. You could well become a sports superstar if you have the passion for it. Moles at the end of eyebrows also suggest a person of authority and power, so if you are the CEO of a company, you will do very well.

Position 23
You have a high IQ, and you are both brain smart and street smart. You have a highly-developed survivalinstinct and will lead a meaningful and long life. You will be active until a very old age and will have friends and family around you till the very end.

Position 24
You will achieve fame and fortune in your young age and you are advised to use this period to safeguard your old age, as people with moles here tend to have a harderlife as they get older.

Position 25
You will enjoy good prosperity and recognition luck, but do be careful of excesses.
Stay traditional in your attitudes and you will have a long and fruitful life.

A dog who waited for his master at the train station for 7 years




















Hachikō (Born 1923, died March 8, 1935), sometimes known in Japanese as 忠犬 ハチ公 (chūken hachikō, lit. 'faithful dog Hachiko'), was an Akita dog born in November 1923 in the city of Odate, Akita Prefecture. In 1924 he was brought to Tokyo by his owner, Eisaburo Ueno, a professor in the agriculture department at the University of Tokyo. During his owner's life, Hachiko saw him off from the front door and greeted him at the end of the day at the nearby Shibuya Station. Even after Ueno's death in May 1925, Hachiko returned every day to the station to wait for him, and did so for the next 11 years.
Affection between the professor and the dog was immediate. The professor named the pup "Hachi" and added "ko", a common term of endearment. For his part, Hachiko accompanied the professor everywhere he could. As he grew, Hachiko took on the traditional traits of an Akita; his ears stood upright, and his tail curled up and to the left. Professor Ueno reportedly took great pride in owning a purebred dog of a breed that had a history going back 30 centuries—especially as the number of purebred Akitas in Japan was dwindling at the time.
When the professor died, Mrs. Ueno closed the house and moved, giving Hachiko to some of her husband's relatives who lived several miles from the station. The Akita refused to stay with them. As soon as he was let out, he trotted back first to his old house, then to the train station to await his master. Ueno's gardener, Kikuzaburo Kobayashi, lived close to the station and took over Hachiko's care.
Hachiko's devotion to his lost master moved those around him, who nicknamed him "faithful dog", though some speculate that he kept returning because of the handouts he received from street vendors (upon his death, a necropsy revealed remnants of what were apparently yakitori skewers in his stomach).
In the first years of his vigil, Hachiko was treated as little more than a tolerable nuisance at the train station. In 1928, a new station master came to Shibuya Station. He quickly grew very fond of him and allowed him free run of the facility. Hachiko still kept his schedule, but also was allowed to remain in the station throughout the day, sleeping in a storeroom set aside for him by the new station master.
That same year, another of Ueno's former students (who had become something of an expert on Akitas), saw the dog at the station and followed him to the Kobayashi home where he learned the history of Hachiko's life. Shortly after this meeting, the former student published a documented census of Akitas in Japan. His research found only 30 purebred Akitas remaining, including Hachiko from Shibuya Station.
Ueno's former student returned frequently to visit the dog and over the years published several articles about Hachiko's remarkable loyalty. In 1932 one of these articles, published in Tokyo's largest newspaper, threw the dog into the national spotlight. Hachiko became a sensation throughout the land. His faithfulness to his master's memory impressed the people of Japan as a spirit of family loyalty all should strive to achieve. Teachers and parents used Hachiko's vigil as an example for children to follow. A well-known Japanese artist rendered a sculpture of the dog, and throughout the country a new awareness of the Akita breed grew.
In April 1934, a bronze statue in his likeness was erected at Shibuya Station, and Hachiko himself was present at its unveiling. The statue was recycled for the war effort during World War II. After the war, Hachiko was hardly forgotten. In 1948 The Society for Recreating the Hachiko Statue commissioned Ando Takeshi, son of the original artist who had since died, to make a second statue. The new statue was erected in August 1948, which still stands and is an extremely popular meeting spot. In some way it could be a simile for the commitment of people and lovers meeting each other at Shibuya Hachikoguchi (Shibuya Hachiko exit). A similar statue stands in Hachiko's hometown, in front of Odate Station. In 2004, a new statue of Hachiko was erected on the original stone pedestal from Shibuya in front of the Akita Dog Museum in Odate.
Hachiko died on March 8, 1935, of filariasis. His stuffed and mounted remains are kept at the National Science Museum in Ueno,

狗狗的故事

我一直在这个尘世奔走,记不清具体多少天,大概有六年了吧。

回头看,我的足迹是一堆乱麻,有的走向是朝向你的,而有的走向完全是南辕北辙。但是现在我无法判断对错。

我在万千气味中寻找你独特的气味,就像在森林中寻找一片叶子。尽管叶子与叶子都很像,就像芸芸众生的面孔一样近似,但是我知道,一个个从我身边经过的,都不是你。

我是一条狗,一条孤独的狗。我甚至不能确认自己是否有过母亲,记忆的尽头,就只有我和我的影子。正如女人的天性是渴望被人爱,一条狗的天性是渴望爱一个人。

你把我抱回家的那一年,我还小。什么东西小的时候都是可爱的,因为它纯洁,而且不危险。

我清楚地记得那是一个春天,满世界的花都开了,天气晴朗得就像连空气都没有了一样。你的气息就像青草的味道,我的长毛就像天上云朵一样温柔。云朵高高地挂着,白得刺眼。

从此,我开始了幸福新生活。

你很忙,加班加点总是不在家。我一个人在家里孤独极了,尽管有骨有肉,甚至还有窗外树枝上的麻雀和我聊天,但是我依然无法高兴起来。每次它跟我聊那些米粒一样大的话题时,我总是心不在焉地望着甬道尽头那扇门,希望听到你熟悉的脚步声。

可是你总不回来。有时候,我甚至希望自己因为判断错误而欢喜一场,尽管那是空欢喜。可是,从来没有过。即使那个身材和你一模一样的女孩,穿着和你同样的高跟鞋,从咱家门前走过,我也不下就能听出她是邻家的。

一天,我看到你要上班去,马上跑到鞋架前把你的一只高跟鞋叼跑了,偷偷藏在了沙发后。我也藏在了沙发后,但是却露出了屁股。你一把把我揪出来,朝我的屁屁上轻轻打了一下,然后还给了我块香喷喷的肉……

幸福的时光总是过得很快,噩梦终于降临。那天我溜出家门,到外面去玩,结果被一辆笨重的卡车撞飞。当你回家来,看到我满身鲜血、奄奄一息的时候,我发现你的眼里噙满了泪。

当时,你把我放在轿车的后备箱里,疾驰而去。我以为你是送我去医院,没想到,经过两个钟头的车程之后,你把我抱出来,放在了那个偏僻的小村旁,放在了那片开满野菊花的草地上,把我永远遗弃了……

我没有死掉。我的生命就像我的忠诚,无比顽强。丝丝缕缕地土腥气就是我的救命药,一夜之后我就爬了起来,从此,开始长达六年的跌跌撞撞的寻找。

我是一条狗,你永远是我的主人。

我走过无数的村镇、旷野、泥沼、山丘,走过无数的白天与黑夜,寻找你。

这些年,我用从垃圾里扒出的残羹剩饭充饥,用凄风苦雨梳理脏兮兮的皮毛。这些年,我从不惹一点事儿,逃开无数野狗的追击;时刻保持警惕,才没变成饭馆里的一盘香喷喷的狗肉。

你不知道,其实我的方向感并不好,而且,视力和听力近来也下降得越来越厉害。但是,我的鼻子依然保持着惊人的灵敏。

当你的味儿飘近我的那一刹那,我踉跄了一下,呆住了。接着我听到了你的尖叫声!是你,真的是你!

这里是城郊的一片小树林。我蓦地甩过头去,发现两名男子劫持了你!他们其中一个拿着尖刀,另一个正撕扯你的衣服。你被劫持了!我热血沸腾,猛冲过去,随着一声嗥叫,我潜空跃起,一口咬掉了为首那个歹徒的鼻子……

我终于找到你了。我没有像设想中的那样,围着你摇尾巴,或者亲昵地舔你的双脚,我突然不会那么做了。我就这样傻傻地直直地望着你的眼睛,甚至都忘了蹭掉嘴角的血迹。

这时候,已经有人听到这里出事了,附近的一些村民拿着棍棒围上来。

我的心一点点凉下来,因为你那写满迷茫的眼神让我更加迷茫。猛然间,你声嘶力竭地喊了一声:“狼!——”

……是的,我孤独地奔走了整整六个春秋。看呀,四周开满了铺天盖地的野菊花。

一片殷红血迹!
