Temples in Taiwan are usually very busy on the weekends.The elders,with burning incense in their hands,come to ask for good health and family peace before the gods and goddesses.Outside the temple in the square there are soaring sound of firecrackers and competitive exhibition of kun-fu,and the terrifying performance of the god's interpretors.I just passed by the temple and happened to share their religious ecstasy by making numerous shootings.
When I was young,I used to hear my mother persuade the suffering relatves or friends to be optimistic and liberal-minded.My mom was right.As the Chinese often say,"Ninety percent of the things in life are unfortunate." Sometimes,in the country,I often see some elders wear smiles on their faces but they don't have much education and don't have much achivement in life,though.Therefore,happiness is not necessarily connected with fortune and richness.How to cultivate a joyful and opmistic attitude toward life is paramount in our lifetime.So open the window and let the sunshine come in.Don't worry,be happy.These words are comparatively important to my fellow countrymen in Taiwan who frequently suffer from natural disasters,like typhoons and earthquakes.
