Samplereference Letter For Community Service

The communication problems. And they go ..... ONE YEAR AGO

Suni Jing jing and invited us to dinner. Exceptionally
Richard was in good spirits.
The conversation at times was, for me, very funny. Jing Jing and Suni, I suppose, do not think so. Jing Jing

: So Richard, since you bought a gift to your mom? Richard
: My mom? No, I hate that woman!

Jing Jing, astonished face excessive Suni
without words. Richard looks at me look at me and Richard again.
Stella, choking with laughter food that gave the whole situation. Jing Jing

: But Richard, that you're saying is very ugly. Because what you say? Richard
(completamtente serious) The only thing we have in common that woman and me is that we hate each other.
is seen that without realizing it I started to laugh a lot, because Jing Jing said with a smile not quite sure of herself: "These
crazy! Why you reis?

And we eat. And bla bla bla. The food is fantastic. If that rich. ja ja ja
And so for a while. Until .... Jing Jing
: Then, they will do tomorrow? Stella
: None. Able to go to that park for kids that are in Tongling. Jing Jing
: But it is for kids, because you want to go? Stella
: Not to do something different. Richard
: Dale go, but before going to the park we go to sex shop. I need to buy some things. Jing Jing
froze. No speech. Do not know which side to put. Suni
disappeared from the scene. I had the feeling that had been hidden under the table, because let's hear it even breathe. Stella
laughs than ever before. Jing Jing looks at me without understanding that I laugh.
A fun they did not like the joke.

final stretch. We are about finished eating incredibly delicious dinner.
talk about food, travel I did, the places you want to go next month.
But suddenly, out of the hat, leaving a question that disturbs me: Jing Jing
: Stella, you are proud of your country? Stella
: EHHHHH?
(Richard I began to whisper: "He said that if, decided that if")
Jing Jing (with a smile): If you're proud of your country. Stella
: And why do you ask?
(RIchard, so under "Do not start Stella, you know how it is. He said that if")
Jing Jing: No, that's your country. I guess These proud of him.
Stella: Well, no. Not to say, sometimes it can be, but ... Jing Jing
(giant eyes open): No? How odd?
(Richard looks like a fly "Basta Stella, and we decided that if anything else.")
Stella: What do we mean to be proud? You are proud of China? Why? Jing Jing
: Yeah, right! Because China is my country! Stella
: Y? Jing Jing
: And so. I have to be! Stella
:....... Jing Jing
:..........
(Richard "always make the same. Do not you realize that's a question of courtesy. You ask and you answer "Yes" and move on. It is a form of "kindness" Richard said after a little annoying.)

The Jing Jing had been a question whose answer was supposed I should not have delayed.
Ahi I left without looking at Jing Jing, without understanding. But she also laughed.
was not a serious question, but it was a question. Or at least so I believed it.
Richard jokes were not for her such. And why did not laugh. The Richard's words were something serious, rude perhaps, from their perspective.
Your question was for me a question. And so I thought of the answer.

This type of discomfort, my days are filled in Tongling.
In while it is living it, I try to keep us all patience.

Stuff A Box With Tissue Paper



The Yin and Yang is a concept based on the duality of everything in the universe according to Eastern philosophy, in which it arises. Describe the two fundamental forces apparently opposite and complementary, found in all things. In all follow this pattern: light / dark, sound / silence, heat / cold, movement / stillness, life and death, mind / body, male / female ... Yin is the female principle, earth, darkness, passivity and absorption. The yang is the male principle, the sky, light, activity and penetration.

According to this idea, each person, object or thought has a complement of that depends for its existence and which in turn exists within himself. It follows that nothing exists in pure form nor in absolute stillness, but a continuous transformation. Also, any idea can be seen as its opposite when viewed from another perspective. In this sense, the categorization would be for convenience only. These two forces, yin and yang, would be the next phase after the taiji or Tao, the generative principle of all things, from which they arise.

This theory is fundamental in traditional Chinese medicine.


Source:

This concept probably originated in ancient agricultural religions. Although it exists in Confucianism, is especially important in Taoism. In the Dao De Jing is shown only once, but the whole book is full of examples that explain it. The I Ching hexagrams are also based on this theory.

The traditional Chinese character for yin (阴), represents the northern, cloud, a mountain, while the simplified (阴) shows the character of the moon (月, Yue). The traditional character of yang (阳) represents the south, sunny, a mountain in the simplified (阳) appears sun (日, RI).


Principles:
  1. The yin and yang are opposites. Everything has its opposite, although this is not absolute but relative, since nothing is completely yin or completely Yang. For example, winter is opposed to summer, but a summer day can be cold and vice versa.
  2. The yin and yang are interdependent. Can not exist without each other. For example, day can not exist without night.
  3. The yin and yang can be further subdivided into yin and yang. Any yin or yang aspect can be further subdivided into yin and yang indefinitely. For example, an object can be hot or cold, but in turn may be burning hot or tempered and cold, fresh or frozen.
  4. The yin and yang consume and generate another. The yin and yang form a dynamic equilibrium: if one increases, the other decreases. The imbalance is only something temporary, because when one grows in strength over the other to focus, which ultimately leads to further transformation. For example, excess vapor in the clouds (yin) causes rain (yang).
  5. The yin and yang can transform into their opposites. The night turns into day, warm, cold, life in death. However, this transformation is relative too. For example, the night turns into day, but at the same time coexist on opposite sides of the earth.
  6. is yang in the yin and yang is yin. There is always a remainder of each in the other, which means that the absolute is transformed into its opposite. For example, a buried seed supports the winter and is reborn in spring.

Graphing:

Graphically, the concept is usually represented by a symbol called Taijitu, "taiji diagram, which has not always been drawn in the same way. In its current form best known, the dark, usually black, represents the yin and the clear, usually white, yang. These two interlocking parts are called in Chinese fish (鱼, 鱼, yu). The line between them is not straight, but winding, representing the dynamic equilibrium between the two concepts and its continuous transformation. Points different colors symbolize the presence of each of the two concepts into the other.

Another way to represent the yin and yang is a solid line (yang) and a game (yin). By repeating these lines would have four states (the yin yang all the way through various states in between). If we use three lines, we get eight combinations, known as the eight trigrams (八卦, Bagua or Pa Kua), from which arise the 64 hexagrams of the I Ching.

Flag In South Korea there are four of the eight trigrams and a simplified representation of Taijitu in red and blue.



Applications:

The theory of yin and yang can be applied to all existing concepts, so that their applications would be endless.

can apply the concept to the flow of time. For example, the midday when the sun is highest, is completely yang midnight is completely yin, the sun would be transformed into yin yang and yin becoming dawn yang. You can also apply to the seasons: summer is yang, winter is yin, the fall is yin and yang becoming the yin yang becoming spring.

can also be applied to the directions: the north is yin, yang south, the west yang turns into yin and eastern yin becomes yang.

is also used in the treatment of diseases according to traditional Asian medicines, which often counteract certain symptoms with treatment governed by the opposite concept. For example, cooling, yin symptom would be treated with hot meals, which are yang, a nervous breakdown, yang, would be treated with cold foods (like fruits), which are yin.

addition, the theory could be applied to all kinds of dualities.

David Tang offers a very interesting explanation while teaching this ancient concept.
