Beijing, Feb. 17(Greenpost): Today comes Chinese New Year of Horse. According to Chinese lunar calender, today is the first day of the horse year. It is well-known that horse is a friendly and capable animal all over the world. Not only the Chinese like horses, but also the Europeans including Swedish like horses because the horse used to be the main transport tool before industrialization came into being.
Last horse year was on Feb. 14, 2014. This year it fell on Feb. 17th. But right after this, the spring season will start, farmers will start to grow crops.
Thus, there is a saying that the year of horses or cows it will be easier to grow crops, there will be good harvest. Therefore, many babies are born during these years.
It indeed will bear a lot of good babies, such as late African leader Nelson Mandela, currently Ukrain president Zeliansky. They are persistant, obstinate and determined. They are not easy to surrender. Mandela stayed in the prison for 27 years, in the end it was the white authority surrendered and set him free.
Almost everybody saw Zeliansky as a little leader and should compromise easily. Yet he proved to be strong and never surrender. We shall see what would happen next, but history usually was written by men.
During the year of horse, a lot of things will happen. I will become a book reader this year and take that as my professional goal.
I also hope that my book can be published this year at my age of 60.
I also wish all my relatives and brothers and sisters and friends have a wonderful year of horse. To be healthy, wealthy and all the best!
