when you believe

Yesterday I had a happy talking with Daniel who came from Spain.We never knew each other before,but It seemed we had been familiar with each other for a while.I believe that everybody has experienced that moment when you find the people who you see for the first time is just like an old friend.In Chinese,we often call this "yuanfen".And what make me more surprised is that Daniel like Chinese traditional culture,He said that he had read some books about confucius and also The Art of War written by Sun Tzu.I really feel glad to find that foreigners have interested in our Chinese traditional culture.(CTC)

   Frankly speaking,as a Chinese,I didn't know much about  CTC until I got to be a post-graduate student.Then I found what a great wisdom my ancestors owned.I have been really into Tao Te Ching And Confucius since last year.They are the wisdom about life,about human.There are full of dialectic ideas in those great pieces of works.They teach you how to be an excellent man with great personality(kindness,mind------)But also as the era limitation,there are also some ideas too old for modern people ,so we should discard them as we taking in the essences。

   It is not easy for foreigners to know about Chinese Traditional culture well.In fact it is not for modern Chinese too.The characters we use now are quite different from what our ancestors do .It is not easy to know  about them exactly well  though some translation scrips are wonderful.

   As I am writing this,I think of a friend whom I also know about from Englishbady.He is more than fifty years old and is from united sates.we had some corresponding by email once a while,we had a good communication then.And He was also interested in CTC.But in the last email he wrote to me,he said he was ill,and it seemed severe.I replied as soon as possible,but didn't hear from him ever since then.I am really afraid some bad thing have happened to him.God bless him~~
