But he knew, too, that thinking could give men enjoyment and pleasure. Edison could not understand why anyone could not be interested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone asked him what idea he had about life. Work, he answered, Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier.

And you will feel your angels love and be happy.”“And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me,” the child continued, “if I dont know the language that men talk?”God patted him on the head and said, “Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear. Your angel will teach you how to speak.”“And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?”But God had an answer for that question too. “Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray.”“Ive heard that on earth there are bad men, who will protect me?” “Your angel will defend you even if it means risking her life!”“But I will always be sad because I will not see you any more,” the child continued warily. God smiled on the young one. “Your angel will always talk to you about me and will teach you how to come back to me, even though I will always be with you.”At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from earth could already be heard.

Following up in some way is necessary. Yes, you can get a job without it, but if you compete with other top candidates(候选人), following up can sometimes help you when the other candidate doesnt. Heres how to follow up well:Send a thank-you note at once. E-mail is fine for this and has the advantage of arriving faster, but handwritten notes are still appreciated (欣赏). And if there are many interviews（面试）, send a thank-you note each time.Find out their timeline. Hopefully, you asked about their timeline in the interview itself, but if you didnt, follow up within a week to strengthen your interest and politely ask what they expect their timeline for a decision to be.Be patient. Most commonly, job seekers are too worried about the result. It doesnt look worried to express your interest in the job or check in to ask about the timeline. Dont be nervous if you dont hear from them at once. The hiring process often takes longer than a candidate would like, maybe the decision makers are out of town. If youre past the time they indicated you would hear something, this isnt necessarily cause for nervousness. Hiring often ends up taking longer than expected. Just politely follow up, explain youre very interested but understand that hiring can take time, and ask if they have the latest timeline.
