MOTHER.THE PAIN OF LOSS.Now I can say with certainty that I had never understood others suffering from unbearable loss of a dear person. For my part it used to be pity‚ compassion. When this happened to me‚ when my dear mother died‚ I started to understand all those people who lost someone they loved.

An Analysis of Li Yu’s Idea of “Love” Reading Li Yu is an experience full of wonders. Not that his works are uncommonly amusing and entertaining for my stereotype of classical Chinese literature; I do enjoy his relatively independent literary approach—however mundane and vulgar it is said to be—from the orthodox literature tradition of his time (Zhang et al.‚ 2008: 2)‚ but it is the less independent part of him that I find most intriguing: that marriages are for the parents to decide‚ that love

Creative Non-fiction Writing. I took this creative non-fiction writing class to sharpen my skills as a writer. It has been fun‚ and I have learned a lot about the mechanics of writing. We were taught to focus on ourselves as subjects in our papers because everyone has a story to tell that other people would be interested in reading about.
