Short story response - "Do Seek Their Meat From God"


We, the animals

We are the innocents, the victims, and the poor,
We are the ones differ from the known super animals,
We eat whatever we found that are suitable,
We act upon our needs to survive,

We see the differences between them and us,
We are left with no choices,
We want to enjoy, to laugh, and to live,
We desire the chance for our kind to survive,


We are not as smart as them,
We can not fight against the supernatural,
We long for the pity,
We suffer from the struggle to survive,


We want to have a life full of delight,
We are too weak and broken in the spirit,
We feel the differences between them and us,
We are the ones being treated harshly while wishing to survive,


We need the food, the place for us to live,
We do not know what is wrong about that,
We already give our land to them,
We are being punished for our needs to survive,

We weep for our people,
We cry for the nature,
We carry our believes only with us,
We desire for our chance to survive,


We are unable to change our situation,
We are demanded to follow the rules,
We are lower than them,
We debate in ourselves for the right to survive,

We are now becoming more and more neglected,
We hold no power of our lives,
We look at the far equality between them and us,
We, the lower animals, ask the question, can we please have their pity to survive?

Love Poem


L istening to the most elegant sounds,
       etting your mind flow for the rhythm.
       ighting the beginning of the day,
       anding  on the path of love.




O vercoming the challenges with a determined mind,
         bsessing the heart with the notes flying all around.
         btaining the knowledge while enjoying the treasure,
         ffering years of bliss to the leisure.


V aluing the meanings of the music,
        arying the understandings as time pass on.
        ulgarizing the songs to the people,
        oicing it is always seems mentally delectable.





E ating while feeling the tones and the details,
       laborating the sentences and the spaces.
       nsouling the instrument bit by bit,
       nrooting the imagery and the power.



M oving forward and experiencing it,
         arvelling the beauty of itself in combination with the soul.
         eeting the origin of the songs and pieces,
         anifesting the lakes, the mountains, and the conflicts.


U sing the right brain to carry out the creativity,
        tilizing the skills and techniques to accomplish the goal.
        niting the parts altogether,
        nbolting the door of advancement.


S ending the mind to the old presence,
       ensing the differences from before.
       acrificing the hands, the fingers, and the nails,
       inging the art of expression of antiquity.

I nquiring the clues for further polishing,
     nsisting on the little parts of the whole thing.
     solating from the outer environment,
     narming the whole as your favourite.


C hoosing the one you love the best,
        allenging the outcome.
        oming to the spirit the music,
        laiming the other part of the heart.

PLEA's response - Sedentary or Physical

For me, being sedentary would be my choice compared to physical.
I believe that I am a person who favour to stay inside doing things more rather than exercising outside. Sometimes, when I feel that I should have a break by walking on the narrow sideway in the woods breathing in the most fresh air, I would soon shift my mind onto planning what to do after the rest. Simultaneously, I began to realize that I tend to pay much more attention on the work compared to the sports. Also, the requirement presently for me as a student, I need to work a lot more in a day than to do exercises physically as much as possible. Furthermore, speaking from a timesaving perspective, I would choose to stay at home more instead of to rest on the field. This occurs due to the relatively less amount of preparations required for me to remain at home where as I need to prepare more things if I wish to go to the outside. When I am being sedentary, I like to spend my time in the house reviewing notes from classes, doing homework, practicing instrument, and having breaks. Looking at the writing in the notes and memorizing the main points is always required for a new lesson. Spending time on the homework from different subjects takes time as well, though not too much. Part of the day that I always enjoy completely is the practicing of the instrument- GuZheng. Feeling the tones and rhythms of the song little by little, I can focus my attention on the music utterly.  For me, the music is always an excellent privilege after school. It allows you to relax and concentrate better when trying to find the solution to a question. At this point, I like to say that exercising, although in this case not exercising physically, can help one to perform better when doing brain consuming tasks. Additionally, I believe that letting the left brain (the part that does the logic) to have a rest by using the right brain (the part that carries out creativity) to go through some creative exercises would help the person to do better when he (she) is returned to logic-required assignments.
