Falling – Failing?
就算失败了，我会一次又一次的尝试。因为当我决定放弃的那一刻，我就真正的失败了。
If I fail, I try again, and again, and again. Because the moment I give up, is the moment I fail.

“Double-Eight” is the value of a father
As it is said at Wikipedia Father’s Day is a celebration honoring fathers and celebrating fatherhood, paternal bonds, and the influence of fathers in society. Many countries celebrate it on the third Sunday of June, but it is also celebrated widely on other days. Father’s Day was created to complement Mother’s Day, a celebration that honors mothers and motherhood.
A complementary integration lives from the fact that both sides, both poles belong to each other. It also means that both sides influence the other in a way that complementation always gets back into a good balance.
I was told that father`s day in China is not at all ……………..

Europeans learn Chinese but firms say don’t bother
The labor market grows especially in China. More and more Chinese on the other hand leave China to work or study in Europe or the US. Of course a basic language competence is needed. But also a well based experience in the foreign language is needed.
To find this experience you have to work in the foreign country. This is just easy to know and to follow. And yet there is a big difference in the people`s interest and the interest of firms.
If you want to get to know more about this, just have a look:

Communicating food and meals by photos in web 2.0 (part 2)
Perhaps you remember what I posted yesterday on communicating food and meals via web 2.0. Here you will find more aspects:
- if you also show your friends dining together with you, that you are socially well accepted, and that you are insofar successful.
- Relating this to the change in family structure at least in Germany you can see that families in Germany get smaller and the dining tables grow bigger.
- If people comment this in social media with „LIKE“ they ………..
Communicating food and meals by photos in web 2.0 (part 1)
Why do so any people take photos of their meals? And post them even while eating?
This phenomena is so common that most of us don`t these questions. Let me take some time to think about it and share my ideas. The German professor Eva Barlösius just published a book, called „sociology of meals / eating“. The conclusions of her study convinced me at once. Here is a very brief summary, in order not to disturb you while eating. J
- Since centuries already it is common that people present their meals. Nowadays via photo. Years or ages ago via paintings. You will find, ……………
Is there a difference between you and me? (An embodyed story -7-)
of course I could relax besides this young lady. I felt quite comfortable lying there when my attention always moved back to these faces. The puppets touched each other and gave the impression ” we belong together”. We are here and we know what we want. We are aware of YOU being here but we do NOT address you. We don`t want you to become important by ………

Awareness and attention needs digestion (an embodyed story part -6-)
my attention jumped from one little detailed piece to another. There were so many that, if I had really jumped in too deep, it would have last ages to find orientation and not getting lost.
It is just like in real life I thought. Being confronted with so many details which cry for attention or being watched and observed that it would be too much for our little brain just to let go. Though letting go is a basic experience and principle to survive in this chaos which determins real life.
Being able to let go in this chaos, and I can tell you it is not easy at all, brings us to some resting pole in order to calm down. To calm down and digeste what we have seen and what has overwhelmed us without (often) consciously realizing it.
So to make it short: following the process of your awareness / attention always has to lead to moments of digesting. Otherwise we get lost in and by awareness.
So I want to invite you to lie down besides this beautiful looking jung lady, have a rest and enjoy.
Expression and impression (an embodyed story part 5)
Being caught by some detail I just had to look around. Had to stand still, move my head from one side to the other, facing a whole new world of creatures which I had never seen before. Creatures deriving from a continent of relevance which was and probably still is strange to me. Again I was fascinated by this world of creatures who started talking to me in a mother tongue which was familiar to me though not ………..
