Everything is determined, the beginning as well as the end, by forces over which we have no control. It is determined for the insect, as well as for the star. Human beings, vegetables, or cosmic dust, we all dance to a mysterious ‘tune’, intoned in the distance by an invisible piper.”Albert Einstein

It’s one of the cool thing to know yourself that help you a lot to avoid those pitfalls to fall into that definitely will make you feel a little bit sad for a short while.


it’s also not bad to be in tune with someone. it’s a great feeling when you’re on the same wavelength. The time flies, the  conversation is like a big flash radiating good energy. You don’t notice anyone around, you just so excited so excited to find that perfect match.

Yes. I had ever met many people and been in tune with them in the past years.


I had a friendship between generations when I was a child. I was less than ten, and she was about fifty. I was so in tune with her that we feed the cows together, we had meals together. She loved smoking,and I would often go to buy her the cigarette.Now, she had gone last year and I am very sad and regretful.


When i grew up a little, i liked the children who lived near my home. The children liked me too, and played with me every day. i was like a king of child.Now, the children who had played with me in the past years have grew up .


Now of course i have many friends cluding calssmates and colleagues.
