TOLERANCE

Tolerance is not love, nor like, it is just to put up with people. People who annoyed you in whatever ways. avoiding conflicts or arguments, that is tolerance. recently, i have just read an essay on tolerance by E.M.Forster, and i really like it. he described tolerance in a delicate way. he says tolerance could be either positive or negative, depends on which aspect you are looking at it. Tolerance is a strategy that needs to be learned by people. the example that is given in the essay is about World War 2, that how the Nazi's couldn't put up with the different race of people, therefore, a massive massacre towards Jews began. if people insist on asking for the root reason that caused the Germans kill all the Jews? i will say, there were none. with no tolerance people hold discrimination against each other, to people who have different opinions; different color skins; different races, languages, or even accents. even a tiny bit of difference could cause discrimination. moreover, the fact of having discrimination exists, is that people did not have a big heart, not big enough to accept others. the writer even pointed out that the most important after war reconstruction wasn't the concrete construction of a country but the tolerance lied within people's heart. with tolerance the world could be a better place.

Pain

For me, pain is always something that is too vague to describe. it is hard for me to find a specific way to describe pain. Usually, when i am talking to my friend or a doctor, those vague emotions and feelings are the hardest to describe. Even though i know sentence like "my stomachache is killing me" or "it hurt real bad" have done a poor job describing.
There are two kinds of pian, physically and mentally. In my opinion, I prefer physical pain than mental pain. Because, wherever people get hurt physically, the scars will heal over time, but when people get hurt mentally then the scar might not heal over time. metal pain doesn't have a spesific cure for it. people said that time is best cure for metal injuries, but, that's not for sure.
when i get hurt interiorly, i feel suffocated, and after the suffocation, all that's left is sadness and frustration. I eat and sleep, and sleep and eat. This unhealthy cycle keeps on going till the last tear run out.

What happen if the last tear ran out but the scar hadn't healed yet?　

Aussumed, it will never happened on me.

A LETTER TO MR. NICHOLAS KRISTOF

Dear Mr. Nicholas Kristof:

I just finished reading your article, which is being posted on the "Times", November, 9, 2008. Due to the fact that I am not an American, so i have little understanding of America's politics. However, from what i have heard about President Bush, i hold no mercy to him. The result of 2008 election excited me greatly, because i believe that Mr. Obama will bring America into an new era. Even though the language you used in the article were a bit too strong and harsh, but from an outsider's point of view, I really like it!
