our theme is foolow your heart , here is a short introduction to this event
We come to the world for creation instead of responding to the world negatively
Life is not like examination. The venture of it is more meaningful than itself. So why not listen to the guidance of your heart without hesitation.
Usually, the most active promoters of reform are those who know how to fully relax . Some people have more energy to create and serve the public although they seem to be always busy day after night. Others are doing the most tedious thing and feeling exhausted because of the resistance of the inner heart.
We, always have the energy to do our favorite things.
For young people, they are living in the best era when they must shoulder the unbearable pressure from life and society. In the meantime, they are at the worst era when the development of technology is changing the world everyday and it will overturn all the traditional ideas, while we will be the leader of this reform. Now, it's your time to begin your own journey to observe and distinguish the world, find the wealth, freedom and happiness that you really desire for, and lead a life that you are looking forward to
Follow your heart and the world will be different because of you.
Follow your heart and let dreams become simple and transparent.
Although Jobs' quote has been cited for many times, it is sill the best ending here “Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma––which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."
Here, ideas collide and dreams start to sail. Let’s listen to the sound of flower of our inner heart blooming.
