Exploring new places always makes me feel excited and this time did too. On the two and a half day holiday, I visited three cities in Sichuan province. I took an airplane to Mianyang , a the so-called technology city. I learned from the internet that there are many national defense research institutes. However, I didn’t have enough time to visit the tourist attractions here at this time. I only stayed here one night, but I still enjoyed walking around the area where my hotel was. My first dinner in Mianyang was barbecue,which was good. On the second day, I took the high-speed train to Guanghan to visit Sanxingdui museum, which was the purpose of my trip. At the beginning of this year, I decided that visiting Sanxingdui museum was one of my must-do things. So I did at it this time.Speaking of the museum, I have to say that I didn’t notice this museum until I came across some pictures on the internet by chance, which drew my attention strongly. The tall bronze trees, masks and animal head sculptures have strong characters and are quite different from other cultural relics. That’s why people joke that what was unearthed in Sanxingdui are from alien civilizations. I am especially interested in the tall bronze trees because I was obsessed with a novel called Daomubiji. In the book, there was an extremely tall bronze tree, and it had the ability to visualize subconscious mind. I was so curious about what the tree would be like, so seeing bronze trees was the main reason for this trip. The museum is in a beautiful park. There were only two exhibition areas opened at this time, but I saw all the exhibits I wanted to see. They were very impressive.

I like to capture tiny things,such as the shade of wind,dancing leaves,running cats and other touching moments in my life. Here are two pictures ,which I took and manufactured it yesterday.Which one looks better? and also please kindly correct my expression.Thanks a lot!

It is common to hear older generation saying that life is getting much better than before in China. Although I agree that people can enjoy advanced science and medical technology, abundant resource of food supplies and better living environment comparing to the past, I don’t think current life is fully better than before or future. For the older generation, who suffered a lot in the past certainly consider that current life is best life. My grandma is 83 years old now. She has witnessed the huge changes in China in the past few decades. She suffered famine, the pain of lost children, husband and poverty. In that age, the shortage of food forced many people to eat bark, poor medical technology couldn’t save people’s life. But now, every aspect of normal people’s lives has been improved a lot. On one hand, I feel sorry for my grandmother and people who have similar experience like my grandmother. However, on the other hand, I am glad I didn’t suffer these difficult period. From this aspect, living in the current age is the best life.

How to control unrealistic fantasies running through my mind?

Speaking of ubiquitous cameras, there was a complaint about cameras which was raised in a meeting at my workplace last week. A manager complained that two cameras were installed just in front of her office without any advance notification. She felt very uncomfortable about being filmed the whole time she is at work. Similar cases happen all the time, whether it is in generally public places or in companies. The argument of privacy rights has always been a debate. News about cameras,such as which road has placed some new and high quality filming cameras to recognize and promptly catch criminals , and females are suffering candid photography, gets people’s attention from time to time. From these cases, we can learn that cameras can deter criminals to some extent and improve people’s sense of security. But at same time, abusing cameras definitely infringes on people’s privacy. So whether cameras should be used and whether people have a right no to be filmed is a tricky problem. In my view, it’s acceptable if the cameras serve for public. Because as far as I know, most countries have legislated the scope of filming the public . From the perspective of the whole society, individuals have to accept that they will be filmed in public places. However, people also have a right not to be filmed in private(or secretly) or private organizations. This is a basic human right. Talking back to the case which happened in my workplace, I think my colleague has right to request to uninstall the camera because the purpose of installing the cameras is not for public. In general, technologies are innocent, how people use them is what we should care about.

Today is a sunny day. Various shape of clound is running on the sky and playing with the sun. Seems they look happy. So I decide not to disturb them. I hide myself in the office and observe the change of the sky and wonder when they can calm down,because it is so hot outside😂

I am fond of mobile photograph.Here is the photo I took after the work today. My daily routine is the same everyday,but I always try to find some beautiful moments such as observe the environment in different ways. The sun looked like a lamp,I am glad I catched this special momment.
