　　The Great Wall Grey

　　The grey Great Wall winds in(纏繞) mountains and grey Siheyuan courtyards lie in hutongs. The grey is the tone of traditional architectures(建筑學，建筑物) in Beijing.

　　The Great Wall of China, one of the greatest wonders of the world, was enlisted in the World Heritage by UNESCO in 1987. Just like a gigantic dragon, the Great Wall winds up and down across deserts, grasslands, mountains and plateaus(高原),stretching approximately 6,700 kilometers from east to west of China. With a history of more than 2,000 years, it is one of the most appealing attractions all around the world owing to its architectural grandeur(莊嚴，偉大) and historical significance.

　　For those who want to experience the real Beijing, the hutongs and Siheyuan are indispensable and best place to visit.

　　Hutong means street, lane and alley, and is in fact the passage formed by lines of siheyuan where most Beijing residents live. One hutong connects with another, and siheyuan connects with siheyuan, to form a block, and blocks join with blocks to form the whole city.

　　A hutong is an ancient city alley or lane typical in Beijing, where hutongs run into the several thousand. Surrounding the Forbidden City, many were built during the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties . In these dynasties the emperors planned the city and arranged the residential areas according to the etiquette(禮儀，禮節(jié)) systems. The center of the city of Beijing was the royal palace -- the Forbidden City.

　　A standard siheyuan usually consists of houses on its four sides, and the house which stands at the north end and faces the south is called the "main house" or "north house," the ones on both sides are called "side houses," and the one which stands at the south end and faces north is called "south house."

　　Not only residences but also ancient palaces, government offices, temples andmonasteries(禪林，修道院) were built basically on the pattern of the siheyuan, a common feature of traditional Chinese architecture. All the siheyuans, from their size and style one could tell whether they belonged to private individuals or the powerful and rich.

　　Hutong and siheyuan are not only a kind of architecture, but also serves as a window into Beijing folk life and the "encyclopedia of the history and culture of Beijing."

　　接受這世界，你會快樂

　　“There is nothing either good or bad,but thinking makes it so.” —William Shakespeare, “Hamlet”

　　One of the greatest sources of unhappiness, in my experience, is the difficulty we have in accepting things as they are.

　　Without judgment, without wishing for otherwise.

　　When we see something we don't like, we wish it could be different — we cry out for something better. That may be human nature, or perhaps it's something that's ingrained(根深蒂固的) in our culture.

　　The root of the unhappiness isn't necessarily that we want things to be different, however: it's that we decided we didn’t like it in the first place. We've judged it as bad, rather than saying, "It's not bad or good, it just is."

　　An example: In my recent post, A Beautiful Method to Find Peace of Mind, quite a few commenters thought my outlook was negative, pessimistic(悲觀的),or fatalistic(宿命論的) … because I said you should expect people to mess up, expect things to go differently than you planned, and that you should embrace that.

　　It's too negative to expect things to go wrong, they said. However: it's only negative if you see it as negative. If you judge it as bad.

　　Instead, you could accept it as the way the world works — as the way things actually are. And try to understand why that is, and embrace it. As it is.

　　This can be applied to whatever you do: whether it be how other people act at work, how politics works and how depressing the news media can be. Accept these things as they are, and try to understand why they're that way.

　　It'll save you a lot of grief, because you'll no longer say, "Oh, I wish things didn't suck!"

　　Does it mean you can never change things? Not at all. But change things not because you can't accept things as they are, but because you enjoy the process of change, of learning and growing.

　　Can we make this world a better place? Again, that's assuming that it's a bad place right now. But instead, you could say the world is just what it is — and that's neither good nor bad. You can say that you'll continue to try to do things to help others, to grow as a person, to make a difference in this world — not because you're such a bad person now, or the world sucks, but because that's the path you choose to take, because you enjoy that path.

　　As you catch yourself judging, and wishing for different — and we all do it — try a different approach: accept, and understand. It might lead to some interesting results.

　　Just friends僅僅是朋友

　　If ever(假如，要是) the scene had been set, this was it.

　　A week in Paris. He is strikingly(顯著地，突出地) handsome with his classic Californian good looks and a smile that could melt butter, and I am probably at my physical peak, with wavy brown hair, bright blue eyes, and curves that could stop traffic.

　　Neither of us knew what to expect. After meeting on a humanitarian aid(人道主義援助) trip in Central America, there was clearly a connection between us that we had neither time nor opportunity to explore. The fact that he moved to Europe the day after our return left us to continue building our relationship online through email and chat.

　　So as I flew across the Atlantic to visit him during my vacation, the possibilities ran wildly through my head. Friends at home had inundated(淹沒) me with notions that Paris is the city of love, and we would be fools not to be swept away. Pessimism(悲觀) reared its head, too, taunting(嘲弄，譏諷) that I didn't really know this man, and for all I knew he was actually a monstrous human being I would be stranded(擱淺) with for a week.

　　However, from the time I stepped off of the metro(地鐵，大都市) and jumped into his arms until the moment we tearfully said goodbyes at the same station, all speculation was forgotten and the natural flow of "us" prevailed(盛行，戰(zhàn)勝) .

　　There were no impassioned kisses or nights of passion. But there were hours of conversation under the glow of the Eiffel Tower. Barrels of laughter over inside jokes that will never makes sense to anyone but us. Tears over the deepest secrets and pains of our hearts. Comfortable silences that can only happen in the peace of trust. Speculation over the future, our dreams and fears. Confession of our fears and failures. And reassurances(使安心) that we see each other beyond the facade(正面，表面)and to the truth.

　　And as I returned to anxious friends waiting to hear stories of scandalous(誹謗性的，可恥的) Parisian rendezvous(約會) , there seemed to be some hint of disappointment. No excitement, no scandal, no drama. As though(好像，仿佛) I had missed out on something.

　　Although our relationship did not progress or digress(離題) as I imagined or feared, I couldn't have written a more perfect story. No, I didn't walk away with(順手帶走，輕易獲得) a lover, but I now have a friend who is dear to my heart. Who I shared an amazing week with, who holds many of my precious memories, and who knows me and loves me. How could I hope for more?

　　One moment that resonates(共鳴，共振) with me is of my last night in Paris.

　　Exhausted from a full week and dreading my departure the next morning, we collapsed onto the bed and looked at each other. His bright blue eyes softly pierced mine with a reassuring knowledge that he knew me, and I knew him, and this was good. As we lay there, I knew that this was right, and what was meant to grow between us had.

　　"Just friends" is not a disappointment. Sometimes it's exactly what you need.
