1. The underlying logic of the world There is an invisible order sheet in everyone's life. You don't need to shout or ritual, Your daily thoughts, choices, focus, and beliefs, It is placing an order to the universe. The universe doesn't give you things out of thin air; It will only push what you "deserve" in front of you. ? 2. Real-life "Order Rules" 1. What you focus on is what you attract It's not empty talk about the law of attraction; Yes: You focus on pain → see more pain; You focus on opportunities → Opportunities automatically come into view. 2. The only condition for the order to take effect: you really believe you are worth it - Say "I want" with your mouth, but say "I don't deserve it" in your heart → The order will always be returned. - Be certain in your heart "I can slowly get better" → The road will appear little by little. 3. The universe never gives direct results, only "clues" If you want to get better, success will not be thrown directly at you. It will give: A reminder, an encounter, a noble person, and a choice. Whether you catch him or not is your business. 4.? Rejection = Protection The people, jobs, opportunities you desperately want, The delay in coming is not because the universe is biased. It's what it knows: you can't hold it now, and you'll get hurt if you take it.

As the heart of the North Silk Road, it controlled the north-south trade routes of the Tianshan Mountains. "Unexpectedly, wonderful things can be seen in Gaochang."

"Beautiful Building" begins with a beautiful misunderstanding. When a friend wrote to me, he mistakenly wrote the Meili Building where "I" lived as "Beautiful Building". Because the letter was received on time, "I" did not correct the mistake. The beautiful building is home to many beautiful neighbors. Mrs. Luo always has seasonal window grilles on her door. Aunt Mai taught me how to wrap bread in paper soaked in water heated by the sun on the rooftop. The curly-haired neighbor has two camphor wood boxes. He puts the books he buys into one box and throws them into the other after reading them. The vendors downstairs pushed wooden carts to the street to sell steaming chee cheong fun... The elevator of the beautiful building failed, which triggered a series of stories of residents helping each other. Stairs are an upright object, bright and not ostentatious. Walking on them gives you a down-to-earth feeling. Store workers carried rice bags and climbed up to the fourteenth floor. Neighbors helped send Aunt Mai, who was ill, down the stairs. Walking in the dark stairwell, a long queue passed candlelight like fireflies. "Beauty" is a misunderstanding, but also a viewing angle and a beautiful wish.

Regardless of the size of the place where people live, they are concerned about the entire community or city, that is, a home in a broad sense.

Khotan, located in the Hotan region of Xinjiang, is famous for its rich jade production.

In addition to its beautiful jade, Khotan is also a Buddhist center and an important silk town in the Western Regions. During the Tang Dynasty, Khotan had many contacts with the Central Plains and was one of the four towns in Anxi during the Tang Dynasty.

Coins, sculptures, documents, paintings, slips and jade, these physical evidences that have been silent for thousands of years are revealed for the first time, recreating the civilized scenery of Khotan, the ancient city in the Western Regions. A copper coin witnessed the young Sogdian merchants willing to sacrifice themselves to save the caravan, and witnessed the royal monks self-immolating to pray for rain. A Buddha head wakes up from the quicksand, recalling the figures of Zhu Shixing, Faxian, Xuanzang and other eminent monks seeking Dharma in Khotan, until the kingdom fell. A Sogdian document reveals the blood and tears of Sogdian merchants during the war: Luoyang was burned, trade routes were cut off, and life and death were uncertain. A piebald horse shuttles between rock paintings and thousand-year scrolls. From the time of Zhang Qian to the court of the Northern Song Dynasty, it became an immortal elf in the works of Yuchi Yiseng and Li Gonglin. Four slips "resurrected" late at night, whispering in the museum display cabinet, tell the story of land sales, bizarre abductions, and juvenile pawning for thousands of years. A piece of Hetian jade mysteriously multiplied and decreased in the hands of modern scholars under the Yueguang Ancient Ruins, creating a magical passage connecting modern people with ancient Khotan.

"Looking for Musk" is a collection of twelve stories written by writer Feng Liang, a collection of deep and multi-vocal novels. In "Snow Light Bar", an "art patron" who relies on her ex-husband to support her life after divorce encounters new changes after falling in love with the bar owner. All that is left to her is the portrait of the Tibetan woman in the Snow Light Bar and the unspoken agreement. In "Old A Niu Died of Sickness", the sixty-nine-year-old A Niu was lying in the critical room of the hospital, listening to his children discussing his funeral, but he was reluctant to take his last breath. In "Helpless", Ye Sufen embarks on bumpy journeys again and again to visit her husband in the labor camp. There is a shadow of death between them - their young son was kicked to death by her husband. In "Escape", the carpenter Jin Long gave a fatal blow to the contractor who had deducted his wages in anger. He dug a hole in the snow to hide in a panic, and his notebook was filled with chaotic thoughts; in "Searching for Musk", on a mountain ridge above 4,500 meters above sea level, a hunter with a German-made telescope squatted for several days, just for a male deer with musk. There is also Granny Ou's regret, Zong Zong's silence, Jin Long's escape... Every regret is like the wind passing through the grassy slope, leaving traces lightly. Feng Liang's works are filled with the atmosphere of Tibetan wilderness, the loneliness of urban life, the fateful desolation, and the lingering loss and longing in human nature. She writes about the snow in Tibet without exaggerating the desolation; she writes about the suffering in the world without indulging in sadness. Everyone who pursues "musk" will see his own shadow in the net.

In the spring of 1945, the German army was defeated, and the world was immersed in the unspeakable crime of the Holocaust. Few people expected that just half a century later, the Germans would transform and stand at the forefront of European integration as a prosperous nation. How did the Germans recover from the devastation of World War II and stand up again from the shame of the Holocaust? In this book, Jarausch describes the detailed process of Germany rebuilding civilization and civil society destroyed by the Nazi regime, thereby achieving national rejuvenation. Unlike other scholarly works that explore Germany's response to its Nazi past, The Reconstruction of Civilization focuses primarily on how a disoriented people learned practical lessons from the mistakes of the past and their struggle to create a new society focused on human rights. This perspective provides a challenging analysis of the gradually formed national and character traits of the Germans, and provides new possibilities for the study of world history.

From Pliny to Dante, from the Alexander legends to the Arthurian romances, from the Bookkeeper's Curse to the "cloth of the world", the author plucks wax leaf specimens from the garden of past texts and images, collects the music of celestial bodies under the distant medieval stars, and weaves a galaxy of words along the warp and weft of history and stories. From a series of specific and interesting perspectives such as cosmology, marine culture, bestiary, sensory history, and exotic imagination, this book opens the door to a small maze of medieval literature, art, geography, and intellectual history. The author strives to break down the barriers of disciplines, languages, and academic writing styles. Like a storyteller in the Anglo-Saxon era who was both a poet and a historian, he strummed the strings beside the campfire during the long nights and told readers who were willing to stop by about the Middle Ages, which was by no means dark.
