Tiawan's passion for baseball has many roots....

It is from a newspaper reported by Shelley Shan. It was talking about the baseball game in Taiwan.

The Beijing Olympics qualifying game was hold in Taiwan. There were eight teams from different countries but only three would be nabbed and that was Taiwan, Canada and South Korea in the end. Taiwan have done an excellent job in almost every game. The young players exceeded everyone's expectation. Their performance made people proud.

I have the same feeling about that. I was also crazy about watching the game. It's too bad that we don't have a television in the dormitory. Everyone was crowed in the student's restaurant before the television at six p.m. on time. We shouted, furrayed, and kept saying "TAIWAN!GO! GO!" Everyone in Tiawan was united at that time. That's why the researcher Hsieh Shih-Yuan of the National Tiwan Museum noted that "baseball has provided a healing and unifying force that could not be found elsewhere in the nation." I think that "the healing force" means the force that could make our hearts got together about something. He also said that "the baseball has played an important role in raising the profile of Taiwan when it was still an unknown member of the international community." Like Wang Chien-ming , his excellent job made Taiwan's international position much higher than ever.
In the end, I just want to say, "Keep going Tiawan' bsaeball players. Make us proud again in Beijing Olympics!"

What I felt after reading it.....

The story was from The China Post which is talking about a dog with only two legs. When the dog was borned, he has a shriveled left leg and was removed. He also had a legless partial right paw. Though life was really difficult for the dog, he still tried his best to lead a normal life. He and his host, Jude Stringfellow, still do every daily activities like shopping. He really brings hope to peaple.

There is one setentence that really inspire me was accroding to a woman said that "I want people to understand that you can be imperfect physically and still be perfect through your soul, through your spirit." I think that she was absolutely right about this. No one in this world is perfect especially in physical which can not be changed by us, but our soul, our spirits can be perfect. That is what we can controlled. We choose to live a life which is not controlled by our body damages. We all should learn from the dog, the positive view that he has. We should pay more attention and respect on him .
