I always love true stories, offering a glimpse into human motivation and resilience - reaching out, raising up and releasing our stress by warming up our heart (some true stories hurt, but neccessary, no pain, no gain) - the treasure that left for humans from generation to generation. Infants, like a little sponge, observe and absorb what stories, real-time or told, around them.
You're what you intake growing up, the food, the information, the thinking of your parents, the habit of your nearby adults: all came to shape you to who you're. So, carefully choose, towards wisely constructed human beings.
How come the truth (e.g., criticism) hurts so bad?
You're part of your environment, including information internet like blog posts: Hard to swallow hurtful stuff, but take it well to make good use of specific criticism points tighten in with your posts.
So drifting? Your point?
Got me your specific critiques. Otherwise, I can't value your comments: For me? or for you? Well, for both of us, the poster (i.e., me) and the reader, you.
说一扯二搭上三? So drifting ? No logic? "Get real!" (#, **) - What? What now?
Read on to figure out yourself, below.
(( # Get Real is a 1998 British romantic comedy-drama film that aired on the Fox Network and ran from September 1999 to April 2000, directed by Simon Shore, based on the play entitled "What's Wrong with Angry?" by screenwriter Patrick Wilde. Cast: Anne Jacqueline Hathaway as Meghan Green))

Doudna and Arnold Chat "Nobel to Nobel"
It is a rare and valuable moment when two Nobelists, who also happen to be women, sit down to talk about the ethics of genome editing, working on COVID-19, winning the Nobel, and being women in science. Recently, Illumina's Spark conference invited Jennifer Doudna, PhD, and Frances Arnold, PhD, to a fireside chat where they shared their wisdom and inspiration. Here, we have compiled some of the highlights. + MORE
-- The two scientists have a lot in common: both are academics who are also enthusiastically involved in industry and both have won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry—two of only seven women who have won the prize.
-- quickly adapted to the changing circumstances and harnessed their expertise to address the pandemic. Being ready to seize that unexpected idea, she added, may end up going in a direction that “none of us could predict.”
-- But what attracted her to the project was telling the story of scientific discovery and the people involved in it. She noted that it is the people that make science such a wonderful adventure. And the story includes elements of collaboration and competition—both of which contribute to the kind of advances that she has been involved in.
-- Future will consist of a combination of new fundamental discoveries that come from unexpected directions, and a convergence of new technologies with machine learning and data management.

What was Doudna’s favorite collaboration? Not surprisingly, her work with Emmanuelle Charpentier, the scientist with whom she shares the Nobel Prize. It all started, she said, when they had lunch in 2011 at a conference in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico. During that lunch, the two women—a microbiologist and a biochemist—agreed to team up to study the function of CRISPR-Cas9.

Her biggest obstacle, Doudna noted, is her own psyche; her own doubts and questions about herself. Over her career, she explained, like many people—and perhaps more for women—she has learned strategies for dealing with that self-doubt. This obstacle has always been something on her mind, both in her own life and when thinking about how to help enable future generations. There is not a one-size-fits-all answer. But Doudna said that we have to build an adaptable community of scientists who are supportive of each other that will, in turn, enable everyone to do their best work.
When she told a guidance counselor in high school her hopes of becoming a scientist, he responded, “that’s not a good career for a girl.”
Those types of comments, she noted, can be taken in one of two ways—you can allow it to build up your own negative voices or rise to the challenge. She has tried to view challenges along the way as opportunities. And when failures happen, she tries to learn from them and improve.

Ivory tower begone
Both women have been active in recent years in the business of starting companies. Arnold tells her students that a new discovery or technology is “not useful until someone uses it.” And, in order for people to use something, it has to be provided in a form that is useable—something, she says, that companies do very well. Doudna says that going to industry is not the one-way street that it used to be, with an increasing number of people going back and forth between industry and academia now. Arnold noted that basic and applied research are inextricably intertwined and “one can inform another in a very powerful way.”

Lyrics ~ Space Girl Space girl, show me the stars You know the galaxies of my heart
Girl are you a Cancer? 'Cause you make me cry When we kiss or dance in the sky
We're dancing in the sky Space girl, I saw a lunar eclipse Looked like how I feel 'bout
your lips Space girl, the only way that we'd end Was if you were sucked into a black
hole But I'd still spend my days dreamin' 'bout you Dreamin' 'bout you Tell me how
to stop dreamin' 'bout you Girl are you a Cancer? 'Cause you make me cry When we
kiss or dance in the sky (In the sky) We're dancing in the sky (The sky) I hope you play
this song some day And think of Earth Girl who loves Space Girl I hope you play this
song some day And think of Earth Girl who loves Space Girl
