Next,we will share something inspiring.Well,can you be inspiring in 140 characters or less?Actually,these sentences on twitter may does:
Most of the great ideas we have in life are born out of the fleeting moments of stillness。

So,although people often complain on twitter,there are also many inspiring informations,which are worth thinking.Network platforms like this may benefit or harm you--it all depends on yourself.
薛莉玮
With the popularity of microblog, hint fiction was born.It is an extremely short literary work, typically no more than twenty-five words, that hints at a longer, more complex story.Those very, very, very, VERY short stories are all the reader is ever given. Just a hint. Not a scene, or a setting, or even a character sketch. They are given a hint, nothing more, and are asked to fill in the blanks.
“微小说”指极其简短的文学作品,通常不超过25个字,但却隐含着更长、更复杂的故事情节。
读者看到的只是一个特别特别短的故事,可以说只是一个提示——没有场景,没有故事背景,也没有人物描写。读者读到提示,然后需要自己去填充缺失的故事情节。
Now,let’s enjoy some interesting hint fictions.
张梓涵
Two worlds

Perfect for each other, they lived a block apart, but would never meet. They lived in different worlds. His was Facebook, hers was Twitter.

The twilight walk

I enjoy my walks at twilight. It's my favorite time of day. The moments between light and dark, good and evil.

Firemen

"Fire truck!" yelled five-year-old Billy. His mom had told him his dad was a fireman. When he got older he set fires, hoping to meet Dad.
“消防车!”五岁的比利喊道。比利的妈妈曾告诉过他,爸爸是个消防员。所以,等比利长大了一点,他就开始放火,希望可以见到爸爸。

David likes to record. He documents each moment of his life. Photos, video, audio. He never watches any of it. Not even when it happened.
大卫喜欢记录。他用拍照、摄影、录音把他生命中的每一刻都记录下来。但他从不回头去看,即使在它们事情发生的时候,他也不曾认真看过。
王思博
