Mountains look beautiful from a distance.

远处看山山更美。

This gnomic seems to circulate very long, its more universal version is the distance can produce the beauty, alleged far see a flower, see posse hemp nearly.

Yes, the distance produces beauty, while the distance is too far away, the ugly no longer exists, so sometimes distance and the power of time really can help us extract certain things from life.

However, if the distance is too far away, the beautiful things that originally exist may become vague as well.

Just like some long-distance relationships I ever known, most of them started with fervent love, but as the time passed by, the passion gradually fizzled away, and eventually ended with separation.

So, keep an appropriate distance, not far away, not too close.

 

Truth is more of a stranger than fiction.

真相比小说更不可思议。

From Mark Twain.

Some artists say that arts oringinate from life but may be higher than life.

It is true in some cases, however, due to the limitation of one's life-experience and imagination, there always are some stranger and bizarrer things in life than the artworks, especially for those fictions and novels.

If you have ever browsed some social news on the Internet, you may be amazed by some news, the stories they told may be much more complicated and eccentric.

I think the very reason that leads to this phenomenon may be the diversity of human being.

Sometimes, truth may be more curel and brutal than you can imagine.

Are you well prepared to face up to the very truth?

 

Today, the 2017 Worldwide Developers Conference of Apple Inc was inaugurated this morning. Besides the IOS 11, Apple also unveiled a new digital assitant based on Siri.

However, it seems the lack of a breakthrough device has periodically raised concerns that Apple has become too dependant on the iPhone and may lose its knack for innovation.

No flower blooms forever.

How to keep the momentum? 

Innovation, easier to say, but harder to realize.
