My father often told me life was dream. He often nagged about his past experices which I have heard thousands of times. One night I suddenly thought about the subject seriously. These years I worked in Shanghai, Beijing, and now in a remote county. I often felt that life was but a joke. What do I live for? for my dream,but what is my dream? In my childhood, I wanted to be a scientist; later in middle school, I decided to be a engineer. Now I am doing a absolute different job. I don't know whether I like it or not, but just know that I have to live on it. I once promised to write a novel for children and I did finish it, but no one cast an eye on my baby. Shakespeare said that life is a stage. If so, everyone play a role on it. I wonder what role I have been playing. If all are actors, who do I perform for?

I believe that life is a stage and we are the actors playing the drama. And we have got to do different roles properly and at the end we will be judged by Allah himself.
