Let Go

-

Many of us in our life time have experienced psychological sufferings.  Sometimes it could be so severe that we felt that we might even abandon our lives to get rid of the pain in our hearts.

In these dark moments, we need hold the belief that although there are many obstacles and hardship, we can finally get through them, and time will heal the wounds.

Let go of those who don't love you; let go the jobs you don't like; and let go the fame and temptation that don't belong to you.  You should know that nine out of ten times our expectations for life may not be fulfilled.

 The older we become, the more we realize that we are really trivial in this world.  Most of the time our promise to our families and our desire for self-realization may not be achieved.

 To live is actually a state of mind.  Don't let yourself fall into obsession.

 In our life time, it is certain that we get slapped by reality many times.  Even those who seem successful and smooth in other people's eyes, their hearts could be riddled with holes others might not see.

 The truth of life is that most of us do our best just to live an ordinary and simple life.

 Who said this? "No matter how beautiful or how frustrated you were yesterday, when tomorrow comes, you must get up and continue to live because you choose to believe tomorrow will be better than yesterday", "Life was never about being happy, it was survival. You did what you could do to get by. When moments of happiness arrive, embrace them but don't hold on too tightly -- they are fleeting."

 In fact, there is no secret of how to live well.  You just muddle through, take whatever come up a time.  When you toughly stick to it in the dark and look back later on, you then realize that you have come a long way.

 Life always gives us a barrage of difficulties, making us tired and desperate.  But if you look at it from a different aspect, you will find that even in despair there is still beautiful scenery around you.

 The most difficult practice in life actually is to reconcile with yourself.  Accept your failure, accept your ordinary, accept the hardship of life.

  Raphael, School of Athens From Khan Academy The School of Athens represents all the greatest mathematicians, philosophers and scientists from classical antiquity gathered together sharing their ideas and learning from each other. These figures all lived at different times, but here they are gathered together under one roof. Raphael,  School of Athens , 1509-1511, fresco (Stanza della Segnatura, Palazzi Pontifici, Vatican) The two thinkers in the very center, Aristotle (on the right) and Plato (on the left, pointing up) have been enormously important to Western thinking generally, and in different ways, their different philosophies were incoporated into Christianity. Raphael, detail of Plato and Aristotle,  School of Athens , 1509-1511, fresco (Stanza della Segnatura, Palazzi Pontifici, Vatican) Plato points up because in his philosophy the changing world that we see around us is just a shadow of a higher, truer reality that is eternal and unchanging (and include things like goodness

  The Story Behind Raphael’s Masterpiece ‘The School of Athens’ By My Modern Met https://mymodernmet.com/school-of-athens-raphael/ Long before Rafael the hotheaded, red eye mask wearing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle entertained children onscreen, there was Rafael the esteemed painter who’d won over a cultured crowd of art connoisseurs. By his mid-20s,  Raphael Sanzio  was already a star. At the top of his game, this master of the  Italian Renaissance  had been invited by the pope to live in Rome, where he would spend the rest of his days. Starting in 1509 he began decorating the first of four rooms in the Papal Palace. Collectively, these Raphael Rooms, along with  Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel   exemplify the  High Renaissance fresco  technique. In particular, Raphael’s fresco  The School of Athens  has come to symbolize the marriage of art, philosophy, and science that was a hallmark of the Italian Renaissance. Painted between 1509 and 1511, it is located in the first of the four rooms

Femtosecond (fs) is a measurement unit of time, equal to 10 -15 second or 0. 000 000 000 000 001 second.   Femto is the unit from the SI (International System of Unit) scale.   We may feel 1 second is a very short length of time in our daily life. But in science, there are even smaller measurement units out of our imagination: 1 second =1000 ms (milli second) 1 second = 1,000 000 μs (micro second) 1 second = 1 000 000 000 ns (nano second) 1 second = 1 000 000 000 000 ps (piko second) 1 second = 1 000 000 000 000 000 fs (femto second) We know light travels about 300 000 metre per second, or 300 km per second.   By using smaller measurement like femtosecond, we can work out that light travels about 300 nano metre ( or 0.000 000 3 metre) in 1 femtosecond (300 000 / 1 000 000 000). In 1964 Dr Harold Eugene ”Doc” Edgerton from MIT used a high-speed camera filmed a bullet hitting through an apple.   At a million frames per second, the camera was able to slow down th
