Hi,Dear Friends
How are you? Have you had a good new week? I do hope you have.
It is for about 3 weeks, this is the first time I feel a little bit easy, can "breathe" a breath because my new and 4th album of 100 pages was started to print Jan 18 evening and was completed on Jan 21, more than 100 copies will be sent to the USA with the Express Mail Service tomorrow.
There are certainly some mistakes inside because the printing house would be closed on Jan 22 and we did have no much time to check them because I suffered the headache for 3 days and the planned printed time from Jan 15 to be delayed until 18. And also because I was asleep at the break time between two jobs Jan 17 night, my work partner Mrs. Bao Xinjun could not awake me by cell phone from China for 6 hours, when I woke up by myself, we found a part of the content was missed (because of the time difference, both of us did not go to sleep for 5 nights within the 18 days)
With many tears on both of the two sides of the Ocean, we kept working hard and made the album to be printed ok before the print house was closed on Jan 22.
The result is:
1. I have had a more clearer mind about my project on theory after writing 12 articles for the album. I can explain my project, the relationship among the arts in my project very clear with my own language, so that during I wrote these articles in my album, I did not check any data as I had done, except sometimes I needed to check some times, I did feel that the words were flowing out of my fingers naturally.
And I will certainly change it to be many papers and an academic book someday.
2. It has really hurt my health once more, but my heart is delight. After I completed the job, I could not walk as usual and my hands were tremble and they did not follow my mind, so that I spent double time to complete the last 2 pages. But my heart was happy since any thing needs to pay a cost. Even though someday I cannot walk, as long as my project could be pushed forward, I will feel my pay out is worth. After all, this is a creative job and it is not everyone has realized its value yet.
3. At the hardest time, I met some true friends. 7 friends gave me their hands from America and Australia as soon as I asked help via my last letter, and they have corrected my writings as volunteers, another 3 friends would also like to help me in the future. Especially, Mrs. Wanda Nava and her husband came to my apartment to help me face to face.
So, even though there are still some English grammar or words wrong in the notes of the photos, most of the long articles have been improved much more than my last album. A funny thing was: As soon as I completed the album, with an excite heart and two trembled hands, I wrote my first letter to the first organization, I was refused less than 24 hours. Feeling a big hit and so much frustration, but still confidence in myself and my study and exploration, I have completed a new painting, new music, new poem song and new article for the earliest poem in Chinese history about 3,000 years ago, and hope it is helpful with you to learn Chinese culture, art and language. You can see it via the links below.
I am sure in this huge earth, there is certainly someone who can see the value of my study and exploration. I will certainly meet someone of insight in this world. Since God has sent me to the target market, I will certainly find a place to develop my project and my dream with the 120 % of the sincerity to help and to service for my target users.
If you are just the one of insight, if you are interested in what I am studying and working, and wanted to give me a hand, you are welcome to contact with me.
How about you? Do you have anything special to share?
