The Ways I Learned to Read and Write
I learned how to read and write a long time ago. The most important period was when I went to an American high school and took English as a Second Language classes. At that time, many people helped me, and I also paid a lot of time and focus on works on reading and writing. At first, my teacher helped me a lot. They taught me how to read and write. First, they let me learn a lot of words. This is the most basic thing people need to do. I learned a lot of basic words. I could start to understand the sentences, and then I started to learn grammar. When I learned grammar, I could start to create sentences myself. Grammar and words helped me understand the sentences and write my own essay. As I learned enough words and grammar, I started to read and write a lot. I read different kinds of things like the textbook, news, and movie subtitles. At the same time, I also wrote a lot. After half a year hard work, I started to understand normal conversation, but I still keeps reading and writing. It could improve my English skills. Electronic devices are very important for people right now. To use different types of electronic devices really helped me a lot such as a translator, eBook, and computer. The internet lets me find information very quickly and easily. Also, I can find a lot of people to check my writing. They will give me a lot of very helpful ideas such as grammar mistake, writing advice, and some supporting ideas. So my way to success in English is to read, write, and ask for help. I think if you do the same things like me, you will be successful at English one day.
Love
Love is hard to explain. What is love? How to keep people loving other people? They are hard questions. Different people have a different answer. Some points we may have the same answer. Love is a kind of feeling but not only about feeling. People always asked true love is like falling in love at first sight. I do not agree with that. I think love can develop. Falling in love at first sight the most time was one loves another. If you want other people to fall in love with you, you also need to do a lot to let him or her like you. Sometimes you stay with another person for a long time. You will fall in love with him or her. It is normal. So, love is not only about feeling, but also about action, tribute, sacrifice, and sharing.
Love is not only about material feeling, but also a lot of action. I have a girlfriend. I spend a lot of time with her. Also, I need to pay money for presents to give to her as a surprise. I need to talk to her every day. If not, she will distrust me and think I did something bad. This is just the basic things people need to do for love. Also, sometimes we will quarrel, and one of us must make an apology. It is not that easy to keep your love, you need to pay a lot - both of you.
Love is offered as a tribute, sacrifice, and sharing. You will feel a lot such as anger, happiness, sadness, and longing. You cannot just stand yourselves. You will do different kinds of things to blow off steam. Some of it will make trouble. Then you need to fix the trouble you made. It is a long thing to work with. You must work on it unless you do not want to keep your love. Men and women have different kinds of feelings, but I think love is the same. It is the most important feeling people have. You can love different kinds of things, including some kinds of strange things, but no one can never loving anything. Love is hard, but I would like to pay time, money, and my life for it.

Thoughts Between Men and Women
Today I want talk about the thoughts between men and women. That is very hard to know how people think, but we can still see some big differences between different people. There may be some special cases, but we do not count that. Generally speaking women's thoughts are like icebergs. Let me explain in this way, what they say is flowing past; you can only see a little. What they mean are undersea part that you will never know. However, men’s thoughts are easy to see. Thoughts between men and women are very different. We can see that in three different parts plans, love, and friendship.
Men and women use different ways to make plans. Men are more likely to carry out plans in a "kill open windows" manner. This means when you finish one thing, you close the window for those things and work on the next one. This is shows men are more likely to focus on one thing at a time. Women always change their mind and will connect with other things emotionally. For example, when they plan to go to the party tomorrow, they may relate to what they will wear. This not the end, it is only the beginning. They will think people do not have enough clothes, so they need to shop. They will keep thinking if they have enough money or not, and think about the man they will meet never know when it will be the end. Men can make plans very quickly and follow thought. However, women will always add things to their plans. This is why women are more likely to be late. When men and women fall in love, they will face difficulties and obstructive. Men's love is more rational, but woman's is emotional. People always quarrel when they date. Most of the time, men think women quarrel because, for some reason, they understand. This is because the thoughts are different. Sometimes a woman is angry just because they feel cheated. Women do things that follow their feelings, when they think their boyfriend will never cheat on them. They will never distrust their boyfriend. Even if there were evidence that shows they do. Men like to trust the facts. They will not just trust feelings. If they feel something, they will confirm it is true or not, women do not. They will just trust the feeling. This makes it easy to quarrel. More trust and understanding will reduce quarrels between boyfriends and girlfriends. However, men need to let women feel they are trustworthy, and women should show they are good. All people like to have friends, but men and women handle friendship differently. Men's friendships are very direct. We can make a joke between each other, but women cannot. Women's friendships are two-faced. A joke between women may cause problems. Men's friendships are very easy; almost all men have a best friend who can share in all your sad or happy |
things, but women do not have those kinds of friends, even if they say they have they also will be broken with some little things. Men will not say bad comments to their best friend because they are best friends, but women not. Women will say bad comments to each other. Two women who are best friends may look very friendly with another, and praise to each other. When they split, they will discuss another person's shortcomings to their other friends. It happens a lot.
Physiologically, men and women are almost the same, but mentally men and women are very different. Men can never totally understand what women want and think. We can see the thoughts about plans, love, and friendship is very different between men and women. |
Hate
Hate is a kind of terrible mood. It produces lot problems. In a Chinese religions book, there is a sentence "The end of hate is destroyed." Hate is not a good thing, but most people cannot control themselves when they start to hate someone. If a person makes you hate him at first, even he is good for you then. You still will hate him. The question is how to hate affected people. Hate is defined in three ways such as how it starts, how long it will keep, and how to forgive.
It is very easy to start to hate someone. It has a lot of ways. Not only living things can make you disgusts, but also all the things around you can make you start to hate. The easiest way to make a person hate something is using those things or person to destroy his cherished things. For example, if a person killed your parents, you will be filled with hate. You will want revenge because you are angry and hate that person. Most of the time it starts from angriness. You are angry at a person, when your angriness is strong enough it changes to hate. It is hard to start forgiving, and it may cost a long time to work on it.
Some people can forgive very quickly, but others may never forgive. It is difficult to say a very specific timeline that hate can continue. It depends on personalities, but there are things you never know. Sometimes people look as if they changed their mood. They do not look like they hate that thing anymore, but in their inward mind they hate that thing even harder. Someone who is very gentlemanly and graceful seems never to hate the other person, but they possibly just hide their mood as hate. Those kinds of people never forgive. Like right now, a lot of young and rich guys who prepare an expression there friends how beautiful he is, but a person not to be inclined to destroy his show. He wants to show he is a gentleman, so he will forgive that person in public. However, he will take revenge when no other people look at him, direct people will show hate very distinct, but they also forgive very quickly, so you cannot really know how hate keeps because some people hate inward.
Hate is very horrible and hard to forgive, but are there not some ways to forgive? No, there are many different ways to help you forgive. The way I support most is to have a religion and believe it. It really helps a lot. I am Christian, so whenever I hate someone that I cannot forgive, I ask God to help me. I check the Bible, and it told me how to forgive and why to forgive. When I understand God's spirit, I can easily forgive other people. Other ways I like to use is thinking about why people do terrible things that make me hate. If you used to do the same things, just let it go. There are also a lot of different ways. Different people may use different ways. So forgiveness is not so hard to do.
Hate is not a good mood. It can let you make a lot of mistakes. It always starts with the way you do not like, but you should start to learn to forgive. To hate someone for a long time is also very tiring to do. Do not be a stingy person; let the world have more love to not hate.
