\n--Dangerous Taxis
\nThis chapter is about several dangerous rides the author had ever taken before she met a truck driver who warn her not to any more. Not the crush she got into, nor the dangerous driver she met but the kind truck drivers\u2019 words changed the author\u2019s mind that she\u2019d never hitchhike anymore. This is not only because she find it dangerous to get on strangers\u2019 cars, but also feel guilty and regret when thinking about the truck driver\u2019s altitude when she easily tell someone she never saw before about another person\u2019s tragedy.
\nEven cannot feel as painful as the sufferer, it is wrong to tell stories about the tragedy to strangers that met the first time. Being thoughtful for the victims can not only bring warm feelings to them but also good ones for inner field of us.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"41789149","dateCreated":"1314674659","smartDate":"Aug 29, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"whatsoeverzy","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/whatsoeverzy","imageUrl":"https:\/\/ssl.wikicdn.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/writingstmufall2011.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/41789149"},"dateDigested":1532428618,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"reading summary 5","description":"Zhou Yun

In the journey of life, it seems similar; you don\u2019t need many things, just the passion of going on. A large package can be a encumber, the process is the most important.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"41789145","dateCreated":"1314674643","smartDate":"Aug 29, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"whatsoeverzy","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/whatsoeverzy","imageUrl":"https:\/\/ssl.wikicdn.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/writingstmufall2011.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/41789145"},"dateDigested":1532428618,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"reading summary 4","description":"Zhou Yun

\n--Way to Go
\nDifferent from the two stories before, this is a story about Peace Pilgrim other than the author herself. Peace Pilgrim is a woman who walked back and forth across the US many times. She does not call taxis, nor carries any money. She sometimes let her friends drive her across the city, and live in their houses. However, she always walks between cities. She just lives the way she believes, even sometimes she has to sleep in a card board box under an overpass.
\nThe story tells how important it is to find one\u2019s own inner peace rather than staying comfortably. What is more, it is normal and will happen millions of times that we will put our lives in the hand of people you don\u2019t know.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"41789123","dateCreated":"1314674590","smartDate":"Aug 29, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"whatsoeverzy","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/whatsoeverzy","imageUrl":"https:\/\/ssl.wikicdn.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/writingstmufall2011.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/41789123"},"dateDigested":1532428618,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Reading summary 2","description":"Zhou Yun

\n--Fabric Thrown over the City
\nThe tale happened in New York City at six thirty A.M. on a Saturday morning. The writer was in a taxi on the way to Columbia University to see teachers on a conference. The street is empty and quiet in the morning, the light is not strong like a fabric thrown the city. The driver told to the writer that, although there are things that cannot image or predict happens, don\u2019t reject them. People can never plan all things out, but just let them come through when they\u2019re ready. Because, there will never be another same day.
\nJust like the driver said, even meeting unpredictable problems, we should not reject or get away from them. Accept what is coming, no matter good or not, is a process of growing as well as the real meaning of life.
