A letter to Michael Jackson

Dear Michael Jackson, I think you'll be surprised to receive a letter from a girl, who is from shanghai, China. We were growing up with your song during our childhood. It was very popular to copy your signature moonwalk on our teenage. There is no doubt that you are our king of Pop. We will remember the day- June 25th. You were an American recording artist, entertainer and businessman. The seventh child of the Jackson family, you made your debut on the professional music scene in 1968 as a… Continue

What's happiness?

A lot of people think money is happiness. Sometimes they thought material things will make them happy, but the think might make them happy for a little while. In fact, what's it really goanna bring you—one more outfit, one more mile in a new car? It's not goanna get you any closer to heaven, it's not goanna get you pure contentment in Christ.

why you are living for it?

When I was working for my Dream Program proposal, I did some surveys for my friends who live in America and China. I'm not surprised that not so many people still have dreams. They said the dream was a long time ago when they were children. Maybe not all of them will agree my opinion. Dream doesn't belong to your childhood; it can be your current and future. But it is not key point. One day, they stop dreaming because we start to lead lives of quiet desperation, and little by little the pas… Continue

Notes from "the Dream Manager"

I spent the whole week reading the books, which Dan gave to me last week. And I want to share some notes from "the Dream Manager" before reading that. the most powerful ideas are almost always the simple ones. Machinery and computers are categorized as assets and people as liabilities. the right people are an organization's greatest asset. A company's purpose is to become the-best-version-of-itself. If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always gotten. People are unique… Continue

I have a dream

"And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream." From Martin Luther King, Jr. What's America Dream? I witnessed that Obama became the first African-America President Last November at Grant Park in Chicago. I was proud that I was there with my best American friend-Meg, who's she lived in the Oak Park of Chicago. Everyone came to America and hold their dream, because they thought America can make their… Continue

Time for questions

I just spent the time on browsing the website. When I started to write down my marketing proposal, I had to ask some questions. 1. What's difference between Cabrini Connections and Tutor/Mentor Connections? I think Cabrini Connections under Tutor/Mentor Connections. If they are the same, why you keep two names? 2. Do you build up both of connections or Tutor/Mentor Connections belongs to other organizations? 3. I see your organization mission, but I still concern about your target areas, it… Continue
