After an entire night shower, it came a gloomy morning with temperature at 14C. Spring was here a week ago, the first bloomed flowers I saw in garden are narcissus. I saw them yesterday. With bright yellow color, bell-shaped corolla, thick and short stalk, the flowers left me an impression of Optimism and Toughness....

This week, HARTFORD insurance company attracted CT people’s eyes. Insurance giant CHUBB Limited company offered $23 billions to acquire the company, the news was released on Monday, the same day  HARTFORD stock roared 18% higher. Two days later, after a meeting, the board of directors unanimously rejected the Chubb Limited's offer. 

As a CT resident, I am very happy to heard about it. HARTFORD, as an insurance company anchored in Hartford, the capital of CT, has a history of over 200 hundred years, it’s one of the oldest company in US. As a company who survived from 1^st world war, 2^nd world war, great depression, 2008 financial crisis, 2020 pandemic, HARTFORD is kind of a spiritual symbol of CT. if it disappears from acquisition, it will be a shame.
