My first Farsi lesson

Today, I had my first Farsi lesson.
I started by learning the alphabet.
My teacher is a nice Iranian, very kind and very respectful. He asked me why I wanted to learn Farsi, I replied because I love all languages of the world and if I could I would learn at least a thousand languages. I can speak arabic, french, english, a little italian and russian and very soon persian. I think by this way the social contact will be more easy. I love making friends through every part of the world. I think that in fact, all over the world we should be a very big family.

Why are Japanese products and customer services high quality?

This is my personal opinion and I cannot say I can normalize it, but I think many Japanese people like to pursue good qualities in what they seek, whether it’s tangible (products) or intangible (services/managements).

That’s one good reason why Japanese people overwork and sacrifice their private times.
In other words, they are job-geeks.

That can also explain why Japanese products are competitive.
Imagine two employees who have the same abilities.
One finishes his job on time and enjoys his private life, whether his job is good quality or not (it at least reaches a permissible range).
The other remains working until he can satisfy himself with what he is doing. He is always thinking of his job, and may work on the weekends.

Which do you think creates higher quality results?

The Landscape inside the Wall墙内的风景

After several old buildings fell, the land became ruins. People built the wall on that land for the sake of safety. People believed that new buildings would be built on the land. But after a long time, there still weren't any new buildings there. People were not concerned about the ruins anymore.
Today, the walls were pulled down. What a big surprise! The land is now covered with all kinds of flowers.
So, you will never know the landscape inside the wall, until the moment the wall falls down.
