Hi Elham and all, I have some new experience of "life is what happens to you when you're busy making other plans". It's about "what happens to you". or we can say "what we have".
During my English studying time,the advices of studying English is following a teacher,which I can't find one we teach English in English environment. Many people don't have the environment,so they plan to study latter when they met the teacher. Being older and older,they aren't able to study a new language anymore. I use what I have on internet. Then I conquered the English. Even though it's not easy,I make it.Great!!! Some candy for myself!! The plan in our head is idealism,which is always perfect.It's always fascinating and fabulous. But,it's not reality.If we try to make our dream come true,we must consider the natural rules,which is too complicate to understand by human yet. Which means,we are always disappointed because of the fantasy can't be truth. The best strategy is accepting what we can't change and using what we have to make our world we live in better, which is "life is what happens to you". Cherish our life!! Good days to you and all Charles On Sun, Jul 12, 2009 at 4:30 AM, Elham Moazzen<[email protected]> wrote: > In 15 year's time, I expect myself to work more and harder than now.
