Some Nice Quotes to share with everyone:
Never explain yourself to any one.
Because the person who likes you doesn't need it,
and the person who dislikes you won't believe it.
When you keep saying you are busy,
then you are never free.
When you keep saying you have no time,
then you will never have time.
When you keep saying that you will do it tomorrow,
then your tomorrow will never come.
Time is like a river.
You cannot touch the same water twice,
because the flow that has passed will never pass again.
Enjoy every moment of life...
Don't make promise when you are in joy.
Don't reply when you are sad.
Don't make decision when you are angry.
Think twice...,Act Wise.
When we wake up in the morning, we have two simple choices.
Go back to sleep and dream,
or wake up and chase those dreams.
Don't write your name on sand, waves will wash it away.
Don't write your name in sky, wind may blow it away.
Write your name in hearts of people you come in touch with.
That's where it will stay.

AN ATHEIST IN THE WOODS
An atheist was walking through the woods.
"What majestic trees"!
"What powerful rivers"!
"What beautiful animals"!
He said to himself.
As he was walking alongside the river, he heard a rustling in the bushes
behind him. He turned to look. He saw a 7-foot grizzly charge towards him.
He ran as fast as he could up the path. He looked over his shoulder saw that
the bear was closing in on him.
He looked over his shoulder again, the bear was even closer. He tripped fell
on the ground. He rolled over to pick himself up but saw that the bear was
right on top of him, reaching for him with his left paw raising his right
paw to strike him. At that instant the Atheist cried out, "Oh my God!"
Time Stopped.
The bear froze.
The forest was silent.
As a bright light shone upon the man, a voice came out of the sky. "You
deny my existence for all these years, teach others I don't exist and even
credit creation to cosmic accident." "Do you expect me to help you out of
this predicament? Am I to count you as a believer"?
The atheist looked directly into the light, "It would be hypocritical of me
to suddenly ask You to treat me as a Christian now, but perhaps You could
make the BEAR a Christian"?
"Very Well," said the voice.
The light went out. The sounds of the forest resumed. And the bear dropped
his right paw, brought both paws together, bowed his head spoke:
"Lord bless this food, which I am about to receive from thy bounty through
Christ our Lord, Amen."
LOL :))

端午節的由來與典故
農曆五月五日是端午節，和春節、中秋並列為最重要的三個節慶。
端午節時值夏季，正是疾病開始流行的季節，因此端午節的由來, 可追溯為驅邪避惡，以求身心的平安，後來加入愛國詩人屈原的傳說，更增添了端午節的重要性。
端午節最令人期盼的活動便是划龍舟，台灣各地的主要河川在當天都會舉行盛大的龍舟競賽，選手們隨著隆隆的鼓聲，奮力向前划，在精彩激烈的賽程中，這傳統的習俗得以不斷的延續。
為了驅除疾厄，端午節時可見住家門口都掛菖蒲和艾草，以及「鍾馗」 的畫像，成人飲雄黃酒，並讓小孩身配香包，這些物品據說都有避邪，保平安的作用。而台灣的「打午時水」的風俗，亦即汲取端午節中午的井水，據說有治病的療效，此外，若能在正午時將雞蛋直立起來，表示來年會有好運道。
端午節最為人熟知的食品便是粽子，這個原本富有紀念意義的食品，在中國人的巧手製作下，已成為具各種變化，且隨時都能嚐到的美食了。端午節可說是現存的重要節慶中，歷史最悠久的。由現代的眼光看來，祖先對端午節的看法確有其獨到之處：在這初夏蟲疫滋生之際，以端午節提醒大家做好保健的工作。菖蒲、艾草及雄黃酒固然是傳統避疫保健的方式，現代人應尋求更進步的方式進行保健活動，延續先人的智慧。
端午節是中國三大重要傳統節慶之一，又稱做“端午”、“端陽”、“重 五”，相傳在戰國時代，屈原「以忠被讒，見疏於懷王，投汨羅江以死」，後人便在五月五日繫粽子投江以弔祭他，感懷屈原的忠誠。故事流傳至今，屈原的冤屈似乎已遭世人的遺忘，反而在每年農曆五月初五端午佳節時，有賽龍舟、掛艾草、飲雄黃酒、吃粽子等習俗的傳承，而粽子也變成約定俗成的應節食物。

--- 黑白老鼠 ---
這個故事比喻的真是棒！
有一個人在森林中漫遊的時候，突然遇見了一隻飢餓的老虎，老虎大吼一聲就撲了上來。他立刻用生平最大的力氣和最快的速度逃開，但是老虎緊追不捨，他一直跑一直跑一直跑，最後被老虎逼入了斷崖邊上。站在懸崖邊上，他想： 「與其被老虎捉到，活活被咬、肢解，還不如跳入懸崖，說不定還有一線生機。」
他縱身跳入懸崖，非常幸運的卡在一棵樹上，那是長在斷崖邊的梅樹，樹上結滿了梅子。
正在慶幸的時候，他聽到斷崖深處傳來巨大的吼聲，往崖底望去，原來有一只兇猛的獅子正抬頭看著他，獅子的聲音使他心顫，但轉念一想： 「獅子與老虎是相同的猛獸，被甚麼吃掉，都是一樣的。」
當他一放下心， 又聽見了一陣聲音，仔細一看，一黑一白的兩隻老鼠，正用力地咬著梅樹的樹幹。他先是一陣驚慌，立刻又放心了， 他想：「被老鼠咬斷樹幹跌死，總比被獅子咬好。」
情緒平復下來後，他感到肚子有點餓，看到梅子長得正好，就採了一些吃起來。 他覺得一輩子從沒吃過那麼好吃的梅子，找到一個三角形樹丫休息，他想著： 「既然遲早都要死，不如在死前好好睡上一覺吧！」
他在樹上沉沉的睡去了。睡醒之後，他發現黑白老鼠不見了，老虎、獅子也不見了。他順著樹枝， 小心翼翼的攀上懸崖，終於脫離險境。
原來就在他睡著的時候，飢餓的老虎按捺不住，終於大吼一聲， 跳下懸崖。黑白老鼠聽到老虎的吼聲，驚慌逃走了。跳下懸崖的老虎與崖下的獅子展開激烈的打鬥，雙雙負傷逃走了。
由我們誕生那一刻開始，苦難．就像飢餓的老虎一直追趕著我們， 死亡，就像一頭兇猛的獅子，一直在懸崖的盡頭等待，白天和黑夜的交替，就像黑白老鼠，不停地正用力咬著我們暫時棲身的生活之樹， 總有一天我們會落入獅子的口中。
既然知道了生命中最壞的情景是死亡，唯一的路，就是安然地享受樹上甜美的果子，然後安心地睡覺，只有存著這樣單純的心、少慾望、多一點赤子之心。
如果剛才你和另一半或是和家人為了芝麻綠豆的事鬧翻了，現在頭頂還在生煙的話，請你看看那晴朗的天空和那飄渺的白雲，其實你又錯過了美好的一天呀 !
有些朋友雖然不常聯絡，卻偶爾寄個E-mail 、也許是一些笑話、溫馨小品，或是小遊戲給你，這表示他一直在關心著你，他將你放在心裡，也珍惜彼此的友誼。 因此，要時時心存好意！ 腳走好路！身行好事，惜緣種福 ...... 。
