What we expect is not what we see/get.
1) In 2008 Jun, The price of crude oil reached its peak which is $147. At that time, many analyzers thought the price of crude oil would surpass 200 US dollar when year end. But the price of crude oil fall as the temperature fall. At summer, the temperature and the price of crude oil reached its peak. When winter, the price of crude oil and the temperature fell together.
2) Last year 20 March, Taiwanese voted and welcomed their new new leader, Ma Ying-jeou. Although Ma Ying-jeou's pro-China policy won some cheers, his inability to solve economic crisis caused Taiwanese says,"A bad president has gone, but a dumb president has arrived."
3) Barack Obama is surely the man-to-watch this year. He was chosen as the Person of The Year by TIME magazine last year. He will replace George W Bush as the new president of USA on 20 January 2009. His refusal to intervene the conflict between Gaza and Israel has brought some critics against him. Now, many media have compared Barack Obama to Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Roosevelt ran for president in 1933 by promising a "New Deal" and was a hero in US at that time because he led US out from The Great Depression. Will Barack Obama become the second Roosevelt and solve the economic tsunami or bring us disappointment? only time will tell......
Only love can stop
1) This morning, I opened my web browser and typed cnn.com. When I reached the website, I read this headline,"Girl killed, 49 burned after Israeli shelling". I knew this is an expected headline.
2) The conflicts and war between Israel and Gaza is no secret. All major newspaper and websites put the news about the war as their headlines.
3) Meanwhile, thousands of demonstrators marched through London, England to protest Israel's ongoing attacks on Gaza.
4) War starts because both sides hate each other. Israeli hate people in Gaza and vice versa.
5) I remembered one buddhist told me that only love can stop hate. Hate itself can't stop hate.
6) Although I am not a Christian, I knew Jesus Christ once said,"Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you."
7) If everyone in the world can love their enemy, I believe there will be no war and conflicts anymore.
