Just a little word of caution about corresponding with strangers from non-free nations.
My feeling is that most of American people are kind-hearted, friendly, and very pleasant to be around with, though correct me if I was wrong, most of Americans do not know much about the rest of the world, especially the development of China and their knowledge of China is mostly negative and out-dated, and it seems a lot of them are not interested either. I was shocked to realize how many do not even know where the capital of China is, how many have asked me if we still live in bamboo houses. That is fine, it’s not their job to learn about China.
Although, in the current sentiment of anti-China and anti-Beijing Olympic, stirred up by the biased and untrue reports by some western medias and some western political leaders, it is not fine to criticize China unfairly, it is certainly not fine to spread lies about China.
And PLMerite,if you spend a bit more time and effort and try to understand the Chinese and China, then perhaps you will have another epiphany leading to ‘enlightenment’? You seem to want to start with or reference stereotypes, but would it not be better to just ignore these as much as possible, and build up your own profile of what the chinese are, now that you are there in china?
I totally understand and agree to you,I have many interests ,and I really glad to discuss with others.
Thanks a lot for your suggestion!

Welcome to FreeRepublic.com
We are all types of people, with a similar mind. One of the things we have learned is that we must “thicken our skin”. That means that we must not pay heed to those who speak bad or harmfully. Their words are to be heeded as the rain on a duck’s back. It falls to the ground and wastes it’s purpose.
Americans are nationalistic, as is China. But, we are all people of this planet, and have the same end goal. We wish to live a comfortable life, surrounded by family and friends, with a rood over our head. We work hard to provide nice things for them, and ourselves.
We all share a common goal, tomorrow! Let us join our voices and minds to bring the world together, regardless of nations. We are it’s people!
We pray for China and it’s families. It is a sad time for us all.
Thank you,WVKayaker, I really appreciate your reply.
Sometimes I can’t help but to think how humanity as a whole shares so much in common, but how we are all divided by common values. People from separate continents all discovered fire to cook foord, isolated culture all have its version of bow and arrows, swords, spear, boats, language, writing...etc.
All I want to say is, “Can’t we all just get along?”
Thanks a lot,fatima,thanks for you understanding,kind-hearted and friendly.I am very glad to meet you in here.
