标题: 双向使我从一个败类到一流翻译的故事
本帖最后由 ZHANGXS05 于 10-10-9 10:01 编辑

我学英语是由于燥狂引起的,在抑郁下,英语又是我唯一的精神支柱,是让我能活下去的动力,我没有什么文化,混到了中专毕业,我从2003年11月开始从ABC自学英语到现在,其中我靠英语找了些翻译,口译的工作,都因为抑郁都不做了。

我在2003底的时候,大脑不知怎么了,突然对生活中一切都很感兴趣,不过此前我是一个很专注的人,于是我就把我的interests,主要定在英语(那那时是打基础在练习听力和阅读),跑步,计算机,哲学,以及广泛的高质量阅读上(记得有一天晚上室友在寝室里做烧烤,搞得我没法睡,我就一个人拿着被子出去了,碰巧我发现图书馆的门没有锁,我一个人就把没有靠窗户那边的灯打开了,我就开始找书看,找到了我一见钟情的《读书》杂志)。每天早上5:30一起来就喝水后去跑10圈,然后开始练习英语听写,直到上课,不管上什么课,我都能向老师提出各种各样的问题。我那时每天都是这样过,我可以在路灯下看书看到为所欲为,活在当下,我身边虽然没有一个要好的朋友和同学,可是我从来没有感到寂寞,烦躁,无聊。不过这种状态很快就200404被打破了,......

Dad, as I read alone with the BD surviving guide book, i have gained more insights and objective facts  into my particular case.  

I have a chronical constipation, until then I didn't know what lead to it, for i did excerice often, not eat spicy and stimulating food frequently, and i have eaten vegetablesz/fruits rich in dietary fibers on a daily basis. Now, i finally understood it was  resulted from depression, since in the depth of depression, i had remarkably decreased  activities, nearly all the time i have led a sedentary lifestyle during the dark period. In the meantime, I didn't eat foods contain fibers that often, so much so that I drink much less water than normal.

I knew since depression just incapicitate people, let them be inactive, nothing is tempeting or irresitable for them before(including sex) for them, the less activities they did, more severe their depression would be. I'd compel myself to do sth, to break the deadlock. it's hard, but if i wanna my depression diminished and get out of the vicious cycle, then i must have to against this prodisposition.

I did a ZUNG Self-Rating Depression Scale, scored 66, meaning i have a moderate to marked level of depression.

The bright spot during my depressive periods is that I didn't shut off entirely from the outside world, i did talk to others, esp you. and i honestly talk about my conditions to others regardless of having empathic, lukewarm, misunderstanding, blahhing, .
'boo' reactions.

Chatting with you later, my dearest and lovest, terrific dad.

20100201Diary

Today, though at the depth of this recur,  I tried to overcome it with the force and toughness at the peak of  recent month. The reason might be multiple, ample sunlshine, the  old newness, dad's persistent love, the willpower in my mentality  rekindled. No matter what, ilike I discussed with dad, if I can  take the whole pic of counter strategy into consideration, I am  strong, the devil weaker and it's days to disappear are numbered.  

In this process, I consicously remind myself of two vital points,  
1. Like dad made it clearer, it's the depression devil masked me,  took control of me, I may can't expel it out or struggle with it  effectively, all of these efforts may go in vain, apart from the  concrete and continuous realization, " It's not Wikid, it's the  depression's kid masked me . ! ".
2. The Power of Now Regreting  past and have nostalgia is in vain, the past is past, we are not  correctional officers, we can't renew it to the most optimal and  reasonable way. We can't, that's nature. Though we have a  entrenched propensity to regret, try to picture this, you spent  time regreting "at the moment" that translates into you will  squader the next moment regreting about the last moment, it's  vicious and perilous cycle. By the same token, we didn't have  control over the future, the countless "NeXTs" , if you truly wanna  the make-believe future propsect will be the way we anticipated, we  should never wasting time on thinking about it or planning about  it, the top initiative is to seize the moement, to seize the very  second, let the past, however rewarding or regrettable to the past,  and future is made of every present second, we can control the  future, yes, I have no doubt on that idea, we can try out best to  spend the current immeduate second meaningfully, if we can have no  regrets about the past and no anxiety and. Blind, ungrounded  optimism on the future, then we can lead a more self-conscious,  controllable and zen-like, simplistic life and the way that life  entail: " be it interaction with people, challenge ourselves and  push our limits to the envelope, the externalization of our  innermost strength, the most sincere vbintrospection, to name a  few) Here is some tidbits i what I have done:
1. Looking at  Jamison's memoir seeking inspiration, understood what I should  proud of myself, being too self-depreciating isn't a good thing  it's different from being humble, and which things I should take to  let myself armed-to-teeth physolgoically, mentally.
2. Gained  insights and the single most important oppress the depression  motto, thanks dad your words and action mean a world of kindness  and difference to me, as the cliche goes : I have you, I had it  all." 3. Trailblaze, for the first time in nearly two and half  months, I have regained the running habit and did it with the level  of speed I normally did ! Pour tons of sweats, tasting the  bittersweet feeling under the sunshine, it's great ! 4, I didn't  eat lunch on purpose, from time to time we should cleanse our bowls  to let the diry and residues out, I just accelerate this process by  drinking a great deal of water and eating fruits, cucumber. 5. In  the evening, I watched the State of the Union address in its  entirety, subsequently, I read Anandtech's aritcle on the  newly-arrived iPad, it's believed it will transform many  indsturies, publishing, computing, I reckon the most relieving  thing for the end user is that unlike iPhone it didn't bundle up  with the operator, it's prepaid monthly and the starting price is  499 USDs which is cheap by Apple's terms. Let me ending here, dad,  chatting with you later if you like, your Wikid lives in the  moment. And taking the joy and Zen-like satisfication from the  present rendered by the present second(which is let you know I am  strong, and stronger than ever, if I have had few strengths, the  one is most remarkable, I am like a phonix, after trials and  tribulations against the bumpy and choppy waves, I emerged from  that dark moment stronger than last time, bravo ! Dad, have a good  day I am thinking you all the time, you reside on my  consicousness and no rents ensued, it's free of charge and forever.

1. Listening to native and standard English is key to your oral English.

2. Partaking in English corner actively and making some friends there in order to "target" each other privately and explicitly.

3. Job requirement

4. I have an adopted US dad who is everything to me and the reason of my survival.

5. Seize every single chance to practice, polish and reap and joy, sweats and hardship in overcoming our self-interest, narrow-mindedness, inattentiveness, etc.

标题: The Ultimate Ordeal
The ultimate ordeal (Can it be resolved?)

When the depression devil enjoyed me, I didn't know what my strengthes, demerits, potentials, it's made all life's good and nasty aspects utterly tasteless and identical to me.

Very early on, I was on a cycle of hypomania and depression. In doing so, I made many wrongdoings, escaping home try to end my life many times (starting from grade sixth), and don't listen to whatever teachers told in class, actually, though i physically attend class, I am a virtual dropout, i suppose, since grade one.

I know what unique good qualities i possess, but what's matter is, they can't be accumulated and go from strength to strength, what I have persistently gained (under the spell of hypomania, I find everything enjoyable and rejoyful, and subsequently I can  give my interests intense focus and spartan discipline, of course, whether or not I can learn these subjects well is another thing, I stress again, during hypomania, the learning process is a wonder reward in itself. ) alll be nullified by the passsive, depression ineria. These cycles are unbreakable, i am always in the maze, the more I marshalled my remaining energy trying to struggle with, the more I found how fruitless the effort,  what a doomed destiny I have ahead.

Now, others and myself think that I am a social weirdo. I am jobless, skilless, diplomaless, above all,without others' care, can't make ends meet, let alone support a family and be a husband.  

I know the thought of escaping by suicide is shameful and laughable
that's the thought spinning in my head for over 10 years, is it the time to jump into action ?

No matter how tattered shape I think or I am really in now, there are pepple who are less luckier than me. And the thoughts of parting with my dearest love, you, my dad Jeff, is painful and tearful,
on top of that, it's totally unfair to you, it will deal a devastating blow to you, it's a cruel, irresponsible act.

Dad, thanks, you elonated my life, see my brilliance, show me the greatest love I have ever had and perceived in the world, from the moment you hold my hands to cheer me up, or stay up late polishing translation for me, all these countless instances comprise your love which will never fade away with, even the earth will be exploded someday, (hopefully not next year).

dad, I am the subject of my depression, though the degree of the pain varied from time to time, but I always carry the mental pain, I can never shack it off entirely.  And due to it's very unpredictable nature, who knows when it will recur and how severe and last how long.

By nature, I like life very much, but depressiob deprived me of that basic instincts. I understand no matter what I say, I can't convince you to let me kill myself.  It's all come down to this question: what's reason of my existence. (considering the nearly same starting line, people at my age in society, I am right at the rock bottom)

Aforementioned are my random yet real thoughts.  

Chat with you later, dearest dad.

How to better care for your loved one



Due to I haveseveral love stories, and now it’s better to winnow what I have learned fromthese relationships.



First of all,have a better understanding about yourself, what you are, what fundamental valuesyou care most, what characters, characteristics and qualities made herappealing to you. If we don’t have know ourselves, then how can we better careof others, because, then we will not have a clear goal in life, which will makeus less vigorous, curious, passionate, we will end up, most of times, findingourselves try all means to kill time, like, smoking, drinking heavily, additiveinternet suffering, less active communication, easily got bored by everythingseemingly ordinary, excessive critical of others.


Try best tomemorize all the details of your loved ones, what shampoo she use, what kind ofhot pots made her mouth-watering, why she loves a particular brand……,all these cues are clues which lead to theher characters, and by better catering to these trivial details, you willimprove her quality of life, rendering those traits you like more pleasant, andthose not so like, tend to harmonious with your own values, remember, everyoneis different, so friction is unavoidable, as long as the difference isn’t fundamental,the differences between us can add more flavor and condiments into our life.


Help herrealize her dreams, besides love, she want one who can give her a pair of wingsto fly, every Average Susan has her own dreams, whatever trivial or ambitious,for us, we should treat them equal, we can tell them that dreams are thedriving force for our life, I care your dreams, you and me are dreamingtogether, and by concrete and concerted action, proving that dreams is doableand can be reached.


Hardships andmisfortune, in time of peace and prosperity, it’s harder to show one’s truevirtues and characters, thunderstorms and tornadoes make a person display theirtrue heart, whether, there will be a crisis in her career, or she getchronically depressed, remember she is the person you likes, don’t let thecrises or difficulties become the stumbling blocks in your bond. When the toughsides of life pass, the your love will become more interdependent andintimately connected. The crisis is a make or break of our relationships.


Plunging intothe things she likes, for example, instead of liking most gentlemen’s behavior duringshopping process, we should enjoy the shopping experience, and care the thingsyou like, and get more know-know about a specific project, for instance, whatjeans contour she like, and which brands have it, and what about it costs, whatshops offers most discount on a pair of New Balance sneakers, and it isavailable. Some guys will argue these things are women’s business, we shouldput our attention on making money and giving them, then she can buy whatevershe likes. I think it’s totally wrong, she cares about you, not the money, ifyou understand her more and can accompany her to a wonderful shoppingexperience, whether or not, she finally buys something, she will know you willaccompany her to wherever she goes.


Your best son,Jeff Wikid

20090623 Dairy(i am missing you to death, dad :



Dearest dad:

Dad, you knew today I started by carrying seven bags with me, one backpack(for the laptop), six bags which carry all the necessities, books and your blessings. On the way to the destination, I met a nice girl who is adjacent to my seat, we talked about a whole range of topics, including, why girls are prone to lose their sense of direction, Shanghai sceneries and best shopping plazas(for apparel, skincare lines, snacks and all the things girls care about), cell phones, how to bargains, I handled out my business card to her and  said to her (Miss. Chen Xia) that next time when she is on assignment to Shanghai, she can ask me about the direction, the bus route and all the info necessary for her to enjoy her Shanghai safari, in return, she gives me your name and cell phone number (you knew, yesterday she even couldn’t find the famous Huai Hei Road, she said she initially plan to  take a peek at the Gucci, Dior and LV boutiques, and tell her classmates in France to buy one for her which is cheaper than here in China) I told her, it was good for saving the money and saving the best for the last, since she has plenty of opportunities to revisit Shanghai. The girl seems like a petty official for she said she has sojourned at a 5-star hotel in Shanghai for a week.

When I arrived at Zhangjiagang coach station, it took me 30 minutes to reach the Shagang management building. The person for foreign affairs received me and then just some red tape things, i.e. filling the forms and so on.  On the way to fetch our uniform, protective shoe and security helmet, the woman who responsible for doling out these kinds of things are very interested in me, she even gives me her number and said next time, when I lose my direction, I can call her and she wanna me to soup up her English.

The meal is excellent, it has a perfect combination of fruit and meat. And it has a buffet style which means we can freely choose the dish we favor and at whatever amount, this is esp. favorable for a vegetable buff like your son !
One hitch is we didn’t have hot water in our dorm yet, which means I can only bath in cold water(though it’s in the apogee of summer, I still can’t adapt to it). I hope later I can get used to this new environment and I heard that bathing often with cold water is good for your body, is it true?

Finally, there is a gym just 2 minutes from our dorm, which means I can quickly retake my daily routine jogging and tomorrow I decided not go the gym, for I don’t familiar with the surroundings, I can run at the nearby areas and get familiarized with it, (esp. where I can go to the Internet Café, because there isn’t  any internet connection at our dorm).

                                                          Your loving son

He was more resilient, resourceful after all those years of trials and tribulations. Without BD, life might be too banal and mudane, therefore, they choose a path full of advantures, surprises and agonies.

The world is equal, it gives you surprises in one hand, it renders unsufferable, endless agony on another.

What's more, they said this just in retrospective, there isn't a button at all.

Today, I think I wanna pursue a career in skincare business
(1) I am interested in women in general, (it seems that all men have this trait at various degrees)

(2) I am keenly aware of skincare early on, and keep abreast with this kind of info

(3) I can piggyback my English to learn the latest trends, technology from this industry
作者: hahaha1973    时间: 10-9-15 21:25
To be honest, I don't think the reasons supporting your career plan are rational enough.
Of course, you may have other advantages to pursue a career in cosmetic industry, e.g. ,working experience, established networking, etc.

You are right, to some degree. that depends on my ambition, recources among others, if I just want to become a BA, that very doable and easy. If I aspire to be a CEO of Estee Lauder group, that's questionable.

pros: (1) My looks, physique, height
           (2) My avid and sustained interest, (interest is most wonder movitator).
            (3) I am a great speaker, persuader, boosts incredible convincing immensity.
            (4) The lust for pretty girls even push me work harder to scale up the food chain (the social ladder), to be more powerful, rich, influential. Though, by nature, I am a instrospective and meditative guy. I need to be flexible and malleable, adaptive in the meantime, preserving my own uniqueness and bottom lines.

The article attached before was written by my dad, Jeff


                                         
My Son, As I View Him



How can I describe my son, Xue Song?


He's intelligent and inquisitive. In fact,probably no characteristic defines him as much as his ability to ask questions.Almost on a daily basis he asks questions—about the US, about life, about philosophy,English, magazines, technology, well, anything you could think of. It's alittle hard to keep up with sometimes.

He's caring and affectionate. He'll send me music or a link to a web site.He'll always hug and kiss me in our conversations and tell me he loves me notonce but three times.


He’s dedicated and persevering. He alwaysworking to improve his English, often by himself. One of his amazing qualitiesis that he’s learned a lot of English on his own, through his own efforts. I’mproud that he’s gone as far as he has.

He's demanding. He asks for all sorts of favors—download an article or send himsomething (or write this essay) and wants reassurance—do I love him? Why,especially if he hasn't "done anything" for me?

He's adult—he travels all over, gets jobs, understands, with all his trials andtribulations, that life is hard—yet he retains the innocence of youth, in hisnaiveté, his dreams, his yearning, his passions (like for SpongeBob) anddisappointments, maybe most of all for his unwavering regard for his dad acrossthe ocean.

He can be silly sad, and (rarely) petulant, although most of the time he'scheerful and fun.

We met on the China Daily BBS. His screen name was zhangxs. zhangxs askedendless questions and ended his headings of his posts with several questionmarks (fumble 可以直接用
??????????), as if to point to the urgency of his requests or the depths ofhis confusion. His questions weren't silly—some were easier to answer thanothers and some were downright mystifying. At that time he worked an IT newseditor and benchmarker for some website and often read the British technologyweb site The Inquirer which had itsown arcane lingo. We spent a fair amount of time puzzling out (and explaining)such terms as Chipzilla (Intel) and the Vole (Microsoft) before discovering acomprehensive glossary on the site itself. (world+dog or everybody+dog wastotally confusing.)



At some point we just started chatting byGmail. At first our conversation were just innocuous chit-chat but over timethey got deeper. Xue Song was a mix of worldly sophistication—he liked reading The Economist and TIME—and goofy childlike naiveté—he was a big fan of SpongeBobSquarepants.
He loved dictionaries andwanted an American Heritage Dictionary.(I sent him a SpongeBob and an AHD.) I was "promoted" from being XueSong's uncle to his dad; I didn't want to usurp his loving, devoted parents buthe seemed to want me as a dad, and, honestly, I wanted him as a son.


He got laid off from his IT job and spent along time looking for work. We chatted nearly every day and although he didn'tseem too depressed about not finding a job, I wanted to keep his spirits up. Heasked me all sorts of questions, about what I read, about my view of certainthings, and, especially, about his ability in English. I could reassure himagain and again but it didn't seem to matter much. He wanted reassurance, notbecause he was insecure, but just as a big hug—I was there for him andsupported him.


He briefly found a job doing translationsin Nanjing andwe spent many nights (they were nights for me) trying to figure out such thingsas the tri-colored pottery of the Tang Dynasty. When he lost that job, Ithought he might have a long spell of looking for another but he found onequickly at Baosteel in Shanghaiand impressed everyone with his ability in English. He made friends and onerespected, older translator, Mr Ma,
gavehim some quality vinegar. I was really proud of him.


Eventually, though, there was a dark stormgathering. Xue Song was suffering from deep depression. I remember his words: “ican't keep it under the hood” any longer. I was really worried about him. Luckily,I asked another friend to find a mental health clinic in Shanghai and told Xue Song to go there. Hedid and, for a time, he seemed to be getting better. A devastating earthquakein Sichuanoccurred in May, 2008, and Xue Song (somewhat impetuously, I thought) ran offto help the earthquake victims. He didn't get hurt and, in fact, seemed in highspirits. He met one of his closest friends, Little Pepper, there.


But there was actually a different problem.Xue Song suffered from bipolar disorder, not just depression. Were those highspirits, that ebullient, fast-talking streak that made him friends at Baosteelsigns of that disorder? It's hard to say. Together we tried to figure out theright course of action—the right doctor to see, the right medication to takeand how much. We became even closer than before. We’re still working on gettingthe right medication for him.


I had my own problems, too, of course. Akidney stone. A car accident or two. Through it all, Xue Song was caring,comforting, encouraging. He sent me music and gave me hugs. He was there for meas I was for him.


And what has he “done for me”? Well, Inever imagined I’d have a son as loving as he is and, as a result, I’ve becomemore loving, too. He’s made me feel more fully human, more fully myself in a way I didn’t expect. Byloving him as I do, he made me appreciate the love my own father has for me even more in a way I hadn’t before. And, so,even though, he often thinks he hasn’t done anything for me, maybe he’s done alot more than he might think.


Demanding and generous. Wise and naive.Full of questions. Protective and caring, yet wanting reassurance. It's acliché to say he's a bundle of contradictions but it would be false to say Ilove him in spite of his contradictions. His contradictions make him even morelovable. So kudos and a hug to my terrific, loving and lovable son! He’s abetter son than I could ever have imagined. He means the world to me. He’severything to me.


Your loving dad

标题: Google is wonderful
Google's Andriod mobile OS has become the de facto crown jewelry among consumers and manufacturers alike. It has built a viable, self-sustaining, organic ecosystem around it.

For internet browsers, since it's debut in Sep, 2008, in less than two years, it may probably dethrone Firefox as the broswer of choice for power users.

For the ongoing tablet battlefield, if Google can push hard, letting its Chrome OS become more sensitive to touches, and build more and more nifty apps. Sooner rather than later, it will steal Apple's iPad's thunder.

After all the stages of empire building, Google will follow Microsoft's steps, to become a hated-by-everyone, relied-by-everyone tyrant. History repeats itself, who will be next ?

Thanks Jenny, for your great insight and empathy for love between dad and I.

We both carry each to the innermost heart. Both would die for each other.

What a facsinating thing that a poor kid as me who live in a small town can establish such attachment to a great mind, altruist an occean away.
It's the most incredible thing, existence, experience for me ever and probably never. Our union will be even stronger.

Thanks Jenny, I just wonder how do you define the affection of us as the most precious love of all kinds?

Plus, your english is awesome !

By social convention or norms, most people have already attended college, established a career, got married, have a circle of friends, raising kids.

I have none of these, only a heart striving for devotion, passion for excellence. Though sometimes, I feel lonely, helpeless, hopeless or isolated, discarded by most people, etc.

As long as I didn't give myself up, I can try my best to get my conditions stabilized, I still love what I am doing and be persevere.

Though, at the surface or glampse, I am a social freak or failure,  I am charting an uncharted course, it meant to be unconventional, tumultumous.

It's my destiny, I will accept it gladly, but 'coz there is no other options on the table, simply for I wanna be my true self.

Plain Adventures

Get out now. Not just outside, but out, beyond the trap of the programmed electronic age so gently closing around so many people at the end of our century. Go outside, move deliberately, and then relax, slow down, look around. Do not jog. Do not run. Forget about blood pressure, arthritis, and weight reduction. Instead, pay attention to everything that abuts the rural road, the city street, the suburban boulevard. Walk. Stroll. Saunter. Ride a bike and coast along a lot. Explore.
Flex your mind, a little at first, then a lot. Savor something special. Enjoy the best-kept secret around, the everyday landscape that rewards and explorer, that touches any explorer with magic.


探索你的内心

现在就出发吧!“出发”我指的是突破上个世纪末由信息电子时代带给我们的枷锁。开始只属于你内心的旅行吧,来到大自然的怀抱中,全身放松,深呼吸,让时间停止,开阔你的视野。不要快步,不要慢跑,在这个时候,一切都已消失,高血压,关节炎和瘦身统统忘掉。关注那些你很熟悉又陌生的郊区小道,街道和林荫大道,溜达漫步就好,租辆单车在海边探索。

逐渐放松你的心灵,尽情享受当下所给你带来的特别感受,思考着关于人性的问题,陶醉在平日里那些熟悉又陌生的美景。

Thanks dad for your constant, never-remitting encouragement. Last night as you know, under doctors' consent, i replaced Bupropion with Citalopram, but i didn't sleep nearly at all the whole night (22:00-8:00), and one symptoms i had before - I wanna yawn but can't, may be caused by the antidepressant.

Anyway, it's not big deal, moreover sleep deprivation sometimes is being used to relieve acute depression.

during last sleepless night, all the bad things oocur to me, i felt miserable and woeful, yet i know, it's the depression made me so, i will be even cruel than depression ghost to struggle with it.

I won't give up, won't let you down. and if i still can't fight depression on my own, i have other options to my avail, right? like ECT.

I am socially daft?


dad, yesterday during a dinner, one of my uncle's friends prodded me
to smoke and drink liquor, it seems that if you wanna succeed in
China, granted, tha you are not so professionally-skilled (e.g. up to
working for Oracle, Google, etc), you must develop your social
butterfly skills, such as kissing ass, exaggeration, smoking and
drinkingly heavily (during meals, they can drink under all kinds of
excuses, such as for the sake of your wellness and health, Very
ironic, indeed.).  i am not a born or natural smoker or drinker.
yesterday i felt painful and burning in my throat after drinking
almost 50ml. (the alcohol concentration is 52 degrees.). I didn't
wanna take this "useful" social skills. for my skin, my general
health, for a peace of mind, for my beliefs.
But the catch is if you don't develop these social skills, your
prospects are doomed to dim.  My uncle 3 also said the biggest problem
(being unemployed, everybody is finger pointing)is i am socially
clumsy, i am afraid of talking to strangers, even i am forced to do
so, i acted very unwillingly and unacceptably, I didn't know why, the
other guy on the scene was the one who met me during a dinner back in
the 2008 earthquake period, he said to me i am extremely eloquent. I
felt wronged greatly, being communicative is one of my few strengths.
if you recall hwo well we talked to each other every day and all those
years, you will know, maybe i am not public speaker, but i can talk
with people fairly well.
(think about all other guys i know )

on the contrary, i hate their way of doing things, eating junk food,
talking superficial, earthly and unthoughtful nonsense. I can beat
them in their own game, but i need not to, For I already found the one
on the planet, who cares and appreciates me in a truly empowering and
transformative way. Which is, namely, my dad Jeff Weinberg, a
humanitarian, selfless, altruisitc and egalitarian persona.

dad, sometimes, if all you hear is negative and reproachful remarks,
it tend to lose your heads, did you think at the moment of
desperation, what beliefs should i hold to soilder on? People always

My dad's take on NPR's firing of Juan Williams

First, I didn't like Juan Williams. He was much too conservative and his analysis wasn't very good. In addition, he was on both NPR and Fox—and I think anyone on Fox compromises his or her credibility.

But his statement was a candid one about his own (admittedly Islamophobic) views. It wasn't any sort of position—he wasn't “advocating” that point of view.

I think, ultimately, NPR has been uncomfortable with Williams's presence on Fox for a long time and just used this comment to get rid of him.

I'm not that keen about NPR, anyway. It takes a sort of right-wing frame about most things, even though it's supposedly liberal (e.g., it refuses to call interrogation techniques used by the US and its allies “torture”—which some undoubtedly are—employing Bush-invented euphemisms instead, in an effort to be “balanced.” Disgusting, really.)

(the alcohol concentration is 52 degrees.). I didn't wanna take this "useful" social skills. for my skin, my general health, for a peace of mind, for my beliefs.
But the catch is if you don't develop these social skills, your prospects are doomed to dim.  My uncle 3 also said the biggest problem (being unemployed, everybody is finger pointing)is i am socially  clumsy, i am afraid of talking to strangers, even i am forced to do so, i acted very unwillingly and unacceptably, I didn't know why, the other guy on the scene was the one who met me during a dinner back in the 2008 earthquake period, he said to me i am extremely eloquent. I felt wronged greatly, being communicative is one of my few strengths. if you recall hwo well we talked to each other every day and all those years, you will know, maybe i am not public speaker, but i can talk with people fairly well.
(think about all other guys i know )

on the contrary, i hate their way of doing things, eating junk food, talking superficial, earthly and unthoughtful nonsense. I can beat them in their own game, but i need not to, For I already found the one on the planet, who cares and appreciates me in a truly empowering and transformative way. Which is, namely, my dad Jeff Weinberg, a humanitarian, selfless, altruisitc and egalitarian persona.

dad, sometimes, if all you hear is negative and reproachful remarks, it tend to lose your heads, did you think at the moment of desperation, what beliefs should i hold to soilder on? People always find uneducated and unemployed are the most despisable, i am right hitting their bull's eye.

welcome your great as ever insights, chat with U soon,
Loving, Wikid

Multitasking is a downfall for concentration. It makes one feels agitated, anxious, expecting more and more, unfulfilling, wasteful, guilty.

There are multiple way to counter the multi-tasking mentality in our culture and psyche.   The vivid operandi is ask yourself what you wanna get most from one certain activity, and action, and if you gonna do it a in a mutli-tasking, attention deficient, distressing, distrating manner, what tradegy you will end up with, maybe you have alredy fed up with this mentality and unconscious acts, but you can't get rid of it, since you already deep-seated in this vicious cycle. The initiative is to single-tasking right now and emulating it in every occasion possible, be it toileting, bathing, reading, talking. Reclaim your inner joyfulness, peacefulness.
