My name is Shitianxiao Tong, friends call me Tianxiao. I am 21 years old. I am from China, a student in Germany, but it's time to graduate and I choose to take a long journey while trying to finish thesis.

I love everything that contains life and texures: Poetry, Literature, Soviet films,the accordion music that flows out to you in the street, the houses with slim and delicate shapes, people that love themselves, playful, with deeply-merry and soulful eyes... And I love Europa . To me, Europa is a world full of life, color, juice and texture.

And, in addition, the drink that I like most is the orange juice. To me, the orange is joy. And my favorite animal is cat, I love his French name（chat,chatte）. So in combination, my favorite scene would be a mature orange tree with a lot of chat hanging around and swinging .

And: I will find the day especially meaningful when something is " constellated" in the day. For example yesterday the cat in my hote s house shows up and plays with me instead of shunning away from me like before. I become catlike while he becomes like a human. teaching me the cat stuff qualifying initiating me in his kindom. Then after opening the computer I saw that yesterday was International Cat day. Maybe the cloud is in the sky also catlike. Maybe(Although) I I have not verified the configuration of stars of that night was also cat-ty. And the next day on the train I met a girl who talks incessantly towards a spacecraft-like cathouse where there was a cat, philosophically moves his head and eyes, wondering about the mystery of motion. The girl and I began to talk away the anxiety of the cat. She had exhausted the theme for the cat already in the long train. And she could do nothing but read to him a book. I suggested to tell a fairytale of booted cat. The cat seemed uneasy. Then I began to read Chinese ancient poems to the cat, which is even hardly understandable for me. His anxiety grew larger. Finally I recognized his philosophical nature then began to talked with him about the ideas of Eros in the Platonic Symposium , about the philosophical cats and worldly cats..He seemed calmed, I was happy because I found that anyway Platon can also be useful, but only on this train with the cat. And Platon must reconcile with the cat! I hope in the heaven he can be happy with the Ideal cat.

My favorite languages are French and Spanish , they are like the orange trees.
Every time I read the literature written by them, my soul will touch their shape and be delighted by their flavour.

I don't like anything that is rigid and anti-life. My past has been full of that. But Now I have my orchard in my heart, which is growing and maturing, and which will push blow away, with its powerful windmills, all the things superflucial, and which will orchastrate a song into you, o stranger, if we have affinity, a song that is living and joyful.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I haven't done it yet！Just like the worst thing I would do...

Teach, Learn, Share

The Silence that we feel is like sitting on the laps of the background Oneness of our Existence. Sadly, in the borderline mentality the ability of connecting to the Silence is severely hindered--- Nathan Schwarz Salant. I now consider myself to be a borderline who tries to heal himself.

Well I find it very fascinating to add something that comes up randomely out of my mind here.

We need juice of life. Juice is blood--I consider the juice of the apples to be the blood of earth and -if we do not accept the earth our tree of life won't bear the juicy fruit, it will bear the dry fruit with mechanical faces 0_0

I find people(and myself) talking deeply about philosophy, literature, or spirituality, or art. Words can be melancholic, nostalgic --- While on one hand they seem elegant and beautiful, on the other hand I feel untouched in my heart( sadly, but honestly) . Upon reflection I find that they lack the Juice and Blood. And yeah, Juice come from the earth and our blood, I want the Blood to be present. And for that I need to find the harmony between me and that maternal image in me---which we may always try to kill or flee from because the hatred toward a disappointing mother. ( a little jumpy, but mother is the earth.)

Really, I've found an amazing fact that, people can claim to be artist without really being creative, being philosopher without wisdom, while creativity and wisdom can be present in almost all the corners of life!!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Just let it remain what it was and just let yourself be who you are. My reward would be：be myself, and although I am poor I'm sure that I still have a lot to give, of which I am not sure.
