Sometimes no matter how hard we try, but things go against with our expectation. There is a lot of sources to affect things going on. Personal judgement, experience, skill and luck, time, cooperation etc. The truth is that if you not gonna to give up, you still get the chance to make the things done.
I just read one piece of story. one examinee went to the capical city to take part in the imperial examination. he dreamed three dreams. one is that he plant the cabbage on the top of the wall. second is that he wear the bamboo hat and hold an unbrella, third one is that he sleep with the sister he love ,back to back .
The examinee thought that there should be some potencial meannings for his dreams. He went for the fortune teller, After heard from his narration, the fortrune teller told him that you had better go back home, plant the cabbage on the top of the wall , "wasting time"; wear the bamboo hat and hold an unbrella, "make an unneccessary move" ; sleep with sister back to back ," have not chance".
After hearing the words from the fortune teller, the examinee was very disappointed, he packed up his package , would like to settle the payment from the hotel and went back home.
The hotel owner asked him why he such hurried up to home. He told what his dreamed to the hotel owner.The hotel owner said that plant the cabbage on the top of the wall, "gaozhong高种”;wear the bamboo hat and hold the unbrella, “double insurance";sleep with sister back to back, ”it is the time to turn over"
After hearing the explanation from the hotel owner, the examinee gave up the planning of going back to home, he took part in the imperial examination, and he won the third number.
Whatever, please be positive
