My Life Unknown Reading Jeannette Walls’ memoir‚ The Glass Castle‚ I really got a feel of what one person’s life is about‚ of someone who I do not even know.

Royal World Palace Outer Lands "Haah.." A farmer wiped his sweat off as he was farming the white lotus tuber plants. He finished his daily sowing routine. The farmer looked up at the sky. One with yellow the other with red‚ two suns’ waves were touching his with their might. The weather was hot summer‚ but the harmony of the luminous red and yellow colors in the blue sky reflecting on the greens was worth to look at.
