A story of a man who made the brave journey of love, cycling from India to Sweden to see his sweetheart, has gained the hearts of thousands online. A Facebook post, that has been linked more than 113,000 times, shares the tale of how Dr. Pradyumna Kumar Mahanandia crossed eight countries to be reunited with his wife Charlotte Von Schedvin in her native country.
The story began in 1975 when wealthy 19-year-old Charlotte Von Schedvin, who was a student in London at the time, traveled to India in 1975 to meet the poor but famous artist Mahanandia. The Indian was born in 1949 into a poor family in Odisha, Dhenkanal and was considered an untouchable in the society.
Although his family couldn’t afford his education, he managed to gain a place at the College of Art in New Delhi where word of his talent quickly spread.
In events that wouldn’t be out of place in a romantic movie, when young Charlotte Von Sledvin met with the painter, the two fell in love with one another. He was greatly impressed by her beauty and she, with his pure simplicity. Despite their contrasting backgrounds, the pair shortly married.
In 1978, the time came for Charlotte to return to her native country, and she requested her husband join her back in Europe. However, Mahanandia was in the middle of his studies and said he would join her after these were completed. The couple stayed in touch through letters and despite Charlotte’s offers to send flight tickets, Mahanandia was determined to meet her in his own way.
Selling his belongings, he managed to get enough money to buy a second-hand bike and set out on the intrepid journey to be reunited. From New Delhi the love-struck adventurer entered Afghanistan, Iran, Turkey, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, Germany, Austria and Denmark. It wasn’t all easy sailing. His bike broke down a lot of times along the way and he had to go on without food for days.
In total the trip took four months and three weeks before he finally reached Gothenburg, Sweden. Upon arrival, he was questioned by immigration officers, who were said to be amazed at his story of devotion after he shared photographs of his marriage.
Her parents welcomed him with open arms and 40 years later, the pair are still happily married. Dr PK Mahanandia serves as the Odiya Cultural Ambassador of India to Sweden and lives with his wife and two children in Sweden. He has become well-known in Sweden as an artist and as an adviser of Art and Culture, under the Swedish Government too.

Waris Dirie, born in 1965, is a Somali models author, actress and social activist. From 1997 to 2003, she served as a US Special Ambassador.
Waris was born into a nomadic (游牧的) family in 1965 in Galkayo, Somalia. At 13, she fled to Mogadishu to escape an arranged marriage to a much older man. Waris along with a few relatives later moved to London, where she worked for an uncle who had been appointed Somali ambassador. When his term ended, Waris remained in the city and held a job at a local McDonald’s, where she was discovered by photographer Terence Donovan. Since then, her modeling career took off, appearing in advertisements for top brands such as Chanel, Levi’s, and L’Oreal.

In 1998, Waris authored her first book, Desert Flower, an autobiography that went on to become an international bestseller. In 2009, a feature-length film based on Desert Flower was released, with the Ethiopian supermodel Liya Kebede playing her.
In 2002, she founded the Desert Flower Foundation in Vienna, Austria, an organization aimed at raising awareness regarding the dangers surrounding FGM. Waris followed that in January 2009 with the establishment of the PPR Foundation for Women’s Dignity and Rights. Waris has also started the Desert Dawn Foundation, which raises money for schools and clinics in her native Somalia, and supports the Zeitz Foundation, an organization focused on sustainable development and conservation.

I considered an active social life as basic human necessity. Yet when it dawned on me just how much time I was spending socialising, I realised I may be taking it to an extreme. I calculated that, on average, I was spending 22 hours or more each week on social activities. So, to see what would happen to my work output, health and wellbeing, I decided to try and cut out my social life entirely.
I knew, at times, I filled my schedule simply out of fear of missing out (FOMO), but also as a way to shift focus away from my work. For one month, I declined all in-person activities with friends: going out for drinks; dinners; parties and non-work related events, to see if it would make me more productive, improve my focus and career prospects.
On day one of the month-long experiment, I had to fight some anxiety over missing out. But as the days passed, I started to relax. I only had one option to consider for Saturday night—to stay home—and this limitation left me more satisfied in my decision. I felt more content working, reading or watching TV.
While I found more time to work, I also noticed a change in my overall health. I found myself cooking more at home, doing daily exercise, getting to bed earlier each night, reading, and enjoying moments of rest and boredom throughout the day.
Having no social life left me more free time than I’d imagine. Such idle moments are vital for creativity, and mind wandering has been linked to creative problem solving. During the experiment I found myself regularly brainstorming new ideas and reimagining existing projects.
Of course socialising is an important way to build work contacts. While one month of no social life did not impact my relationship with existing clients, if I had continued, it may harm my ability to build new ones.
【小题1】What did the author realize about his socializing?
A．It was difficult for him to contact people.
B．It’s a necessary part of his life and work.
C．He had spent too much time in socializing.
D．He should have spent more time socializing.
【小题2】How did the author feel on the first day of his experiment?
A．He felt anxious that he might be left out.
B．He felt more energetic to get clown to work.
C．He felt relaxed not having to contact people.
D．He felt doubtful whether he could hold on.
【小题3】What benefit did the author find to let his mind wander lazily?
A．He could have more time with his family.
B．He could solve problems in a creative way.
C．He could be more concentrated on his work.
D．He could free himself from the work contacts.
【小题4】What would the author do after the experiment?
A．Live a quiet life with his family away from the outside.
B．Make a new social life with any possible customers.
C．Spare some time regularly for creative thinking alone.
D．Continue his work contacts with his customers.
