G: Because I met an interesting ...... as well.
M: You met interesting dots??
G: Interesting heart.

M: I thought you would say interesting mind or brain haha.

G: Heart has more warm connection than brain.

M: That is if you can touch the heart.

Being more emotinal

Emotional, what is being more emotional? I didn't feel it before. Somehow now I can feel it. So good that I am not a machine anymore. Emotion drives us everyday. It is different from purpose. Purpose is something we do it intentionally. Emotion is the opposite way. It is something we can not control.

Growing up 2

This year is amazing. I felt I grew up 3 years older in one year. And it is not because I went to tour some other places. Something just magically happened and wake me up this year. Yes, this world is truly different. It is different, because I never view it like this, I never open my eyes to see this colorful world. I was really wondering how I lived like that before. Live like a machine, think like a machine, and act like a machine. I was so cold and unfeeling to this world, to others, and even to myself. The beauty of the world is just beside myself. I did not chose to sense it. Suddenly I found I can learn so much at anytime, at everywhere. Last time, I had my goal. This time, I have my dream. I was Neo in the matrix. Now I am Neo in real world. It is so good to breathe the fresh air.

This Train Don't Stop There Anymore



This Train Don't Stop There Anymore lyrics:


You may not believe it
But I don't believe in miracles anymore
And when I think about it
I don't believe I ever did for sure
All the things I've said in songs
All the purple prose you bought from me
Reality's just black and white
The sentimental things I'd write
Never meant that much to me

I used to be the main express
All steam and whistles heading west
Picking up my pain from door to door
Riding on the storyline
Furnace burning overtime
But this train don't stop,
This train don't stop,
This train don't stop there anymore

You don't need to hear it
But I'm dried up and sick to death of love
If you need to know it
I never really understood that stuff
All the stars and bleeding hearts
All the tears that welled up in my eyes
Never meant a thing to me
Read 'em as they say and weep
I've never felt enough to cry

When I said that I don't care
It really means my engine's breaking down
The chisel chips my heart again
The granite cracks beneath my skin
I crumble into pieces on the ground

Change

Not only something, it is the same for everything. The non-changing nature of everything is everything is changing. My mind was split into two part. I acted like two different people. One is a soft and fragile person. The other is a proud and aggressive person. How did this begin? In the beginning I was a proud and aggressive person. After I went through some failures, I become a soft and fragile person. I remember I still can turn back. I always try to suppress my aggressive part. But somehow it turns out my approach of solving problems are still straight forward and aggressive. I thought I can go through somethings to make me rely on someone else. In the end, the part I have been always suppressing has come out. And I change a lot. I thought that door could be closed, but it is opened again in a different way. Yes, I am still proud and aggressive. Moreover, I found I had already gained another character through these years. It is persistent. Nothing can change over night. I can not change myself overnight. What I can achieve is to change myself over years, change myself through experiences, and change myself by thinking more. The goals are important. And the each steps of reaching the goals are more important. I remember Dr Pickard said "Work hard, make use of our hands and do kick ass jobs".

10年

昨天很欣慰,我发现我居然能够理解老李一些了。回想这些年,我们每次见面都只是吃吃喝喝,他已变得成熟时,我还是个小孩子,虽然我们同岁。我这几年没有真正理解过他的想法,只是因为我太专注了,从来没想到过,也从来想不到他的感受。现在突然发现我除了可以跟他吃吃喝喝,终于能有一些内心的交流了。我们认识10年了,现在我感受到了真正的不同,一种10年间未曾有过的感觉——“哥们,我能帮你分担一些了!”

成长

刚刚和妈妈长聊了两个小时,以前没有发现到其实我造就被她看穿了,不仅是她,侯老师和李爷爷也早就知道我是一个什么样的孩子,那时我才12岁。妈妈也很无奈,她知道我是一个心理年龄比实际年龄小很多的孩子,在当时的大环境下她也没有什么办法,只能自己把工作辞了全心全意地照料我的生活和督促我的学习。我小的时候是一个没人管就不学习的人,还记得她天天要坐在我旁边看我把作业写完。后来上了中学,她的知识不能辅导我了,她就找了很多老师来教我,我的最大的一个优点就是只要父母安排课,我就肯定去听,我从不旷课。最近发生的很多事让我埋怨他们为什么不让我在小的时候多摔些跟头,我发现我有的不是Wise,不是Intelligence,只是Skills,我很感激我爸爸从小教我英语,英语是我的一种技能,数学和科学也是我的技能,通过这几年的成长,我还拥有了很强的自学能力,但是我在生活上差得很多,包括与人交往、察言观色、生活的情趣。跟妈妈长聊了以后才觉得当父母的很不容易,她很早就知道我有这方面的问题,她也很着急,她也希望自己的孩子是十全十美的,但是她也知道有些事只能靠我自己去领悟,她能做到的就是好好照顾我、教导我、请很多老师来教我的学业,让我在知识和技能上不输给同龄人,她已经为我做了太多太多。以后我不会再抱怨了,我不是完美的,父母也不是完美的,他们已经为我做了一切努力,我感激他们。我妈妈还告诉我让我以后不要给她买那么贵重的项链了,她说我花我自己的钱会让她心疼,当我听到她说这句话是,我的心不禁抽搐了一下,我欠他们的太多了、太多了,即使我想给他们些许回报,他们也会退让。

压力

记得她对我说过我在太在乎得失,我当时不以为然。果然是这样,我太在乎得失了,总是把自己和别人做比较,把自己弄得很累,结果压力越来越大,终于有撑不住的时候。在看不到希望时就心灰意冷,自暴自弃,其实路是人走出来的。其实地上本没有路,走的人多了,也变成了路。

自我

已经陷在自我、自私的思维圈子里很多年了,从来不知道自己已经陷得这么深。想要跳出来的时候,却发现是那么的难,压力也很大。压力越大的时候越不知道该怎么做。自我太久了,起到了相反的作用,因为我没有从别人的角度思考问题,就不知道我和别人有多么的不同,没有了比较,我连自己都看不清自己,总是在无意识地伤害别人。真的是很茫然,什么时候我才能跳出来呢?什么时候我才能改变我自己,变得更坚强、更稳重、更为别人着想?

I remember that Dr Roy told me"Guo Cheng, nothing can change over night. Things can change in long term. You should focus what you can do after next 6 months or next year."
