家駒十五年前今天走了,留給世人有這首訣別的歌,填詞的劉卓煇大概不知道,這首歌好像預告家駒會離開一樣。
盼望你沒有為我又再度暗中淌淚
我不想留低 你的心空虛
盼望你別再讓我像背負太深的罪
我的心如水 你不必痴醉
*Woo...你可知 誰甘心歸去
你與我之間 有誰*
#是緣是情是童真 還是意外
有淚有罪有付出 還有忍耐
是人是牆是寒冬 藏在眼內
有日有夜有幻想 無法等待#
盼望我別去後會共你在遠方相聚
每一天望海 每一天相對
盼望你現已沒有讓我別去的恐懼
我即使離開 你的天空裡
重唱*#
多少春秋風雨改 多少崎嶇不變愛
多少唏噓的你在人海
重唱#
那年初出茅廬,在一所翻新重開、歷史悠久的六星級酒店從事客戶服務工作,面對排山倒海的新鮮的人和事:碰到人生裏面遇過最好的老闆A小姐,專注工作又有幽默感的部門經理K先生,酷而自我、卻對我很好的男同事S,部門間勾心鬥角,熱情外籍同事的性騷擾...應接不暇,卻學了很多。
後來A小姐走了,K先生走了,晨昏不定地輪班令人生厭
,心裏不捨S,但一年後還是另謀高就了。
有時會想到S,還是想知道:「是緣是情是童真?還是意外?」

When You Come Into My Heart (그대 내맘에 들어오면)
南韓電影卑劣街頭裏,趙寅成因母親多病而退學,由酒吧侍應變成黑社會小混混,為了出人頭地而殺死自己的「大佬」,最後他的手下亦為同樣理由而殺了他。
電影中,趙重遇初戀女友,當時對方在卡拉ok唱了這首由Jo DukBae (조덕배) 唱的When You Come into My Heart,後來趙到卡拉ok時,想念她而再唱。
因爲歌曲大受歡迎,先後有多為男歌手重唱,包括Jo Sung Mo 和Sung Si Kyung。
[chorus]的意思是:
I would run ...
I would fly ...
If you come into my heart
Even if I wouldn't run like a child
Even if I wouldn't go chasing butterfly
Like so, I'd remain by your side a long long while
And rush around you like a river

《柏林蒼穹下》

記得我們看過德國電影《柏林蒼穹下》(Der Himmel über Berlin),也譯作《欲望之翼》(Wings of Desire),由德國導演文·溫德斯(Wim Wenders)執導,攝於1987年,即後來荷李活電影《天使多情》的原裝版本。
電影描寫冷戰末期的柏林有兩位守護天使,看見的世界只有黑白,除孩子以外,成年人無法感知他們的存在;他們每天漫游翱翔於城市間,觀察、聆聽世人的心聲,守護他們。
其中一位天使愛上了馬戲團弔鞦韆的美麗女藝人,放棄永生,變成一個普通人:於是他看到世界繽紛的色彩、抽煙、品嘗食物、享用咖啡。最後,雙方終於在一間酒吧裏“邂逅”,終成眷屬。
我很喜歡電影裏面的德文詩「童年的歌」(Lied Vom Kindsein),對於孩子問的問題,我還是沒有確定答案。

I Don't Love You - My Chemical Romance
MCR的音樂錄影帶很酷。
黑男和白女本來就屬於兩個世界,待雙方愛到遍體鱗傷以後才接受這個事實是否有點太傻太天真?
愛能戰勝一切?愛得不夠如何戰勝一切?

林鳳嬌20年來心路歷程
林鳳嬌道出與成龍風雨20年:一份遲來的信任∼好傻的女人 ∼
林鳳嬌曾是台灣影壇上與林青霞平分秋色的電影明星,以一部《小城故事》奪得金馬影后桂冠。但是為了成龍,她放棄了如日中天的事業,洗盡鉛華回家當起了成龍祕而不宣的太太。
隱姓埋名低調生活20年後,成龍終於在今年 5月17日 ,為林鳳嬌舉辦了盛大的生日派對,並精心挑選一輛價值200萬港幣的勞斯萊斯豪華房車作為林鳳嬌的生日禮物。林鳳嬌喜極而泣,之後第一次對媒體道出了她與成龍20年的風雨歷程……嫁他,是很快樂的一件事…… 。
我和成龍的故事開始得有點讓人猝不及防。那一年,他帶著成家班的弟兄來台灣為我主演的一部電影做武打設計,他時時處處親力親為,完成得乾淨漂亮。我就這樣喜歡上了他。
周圍的人提醒我,成龍身邊的女人從來沒斷過。可是,我相信,相處久了,他會明白我是怎樣一個人,明白我與別的女人的不同之處。於是,我們同居了。然後,我懷孕了,我問他:這孩子你要不要?他回答:我要啊!為了這句話,我決定把孩子生下來。
我隨後召開新聞發布會宣布息影,獨自來到美國待產。待產的日子漫長而無聊,成龍沒有來看過我一次,隨著肚子一天天隆起,心裡開始變得空空落落。我安慰自己:成龍是屬於事業的,連他自己都無法擁有自己,我又怎麼可能完全擁有他呢?
孩子的預產期定下來以後,我打電話告訴成龍的助手,過了一天,他從香港飛來了美國,我當時的感覺有點幸福,畢竟,他還是心裡有我的。我靠著他,試探地問他?孩子就要出世了,可我不知道孩子的父親那一欄裡該寫誰的名字。
他說:就寫陳港生。
我驚喜交加:你願意娶我?
他說:是的,我娶你。
孩子後天就要出生,我們只有一天的時間用來結婚。 聯繫教堂都來不及,他跑到附近的教堂把一個神父請到了醫院附近的一家餐廳頂樓。四周鬧哄哄的,神父喝著咖啡問我們-你們是否彼此相愛,願意結婚?我拼命點頭。那麼,交換戒指吧。我頓時暈了-我們居然忘記了準備結婚戒指。
成龍從自己手上取下一枚戒指遞給我,太大了,我勉勉強強套到了自己的大拇指上,就這樣把自己嫁給了他。
第二天,我在醫院剖腹產下兒子陳祖明。
等他,是很苦的一件事,沒多久,我帶著兒子回到香港,可出於維護成龍形象的考慮,我不能以陳太太的身份出現,成龍也不能暴露自己已婚的事實。我,是一個不能與他攜手並肩漫步在陽光下的地下妻子。
成龍沒有虧待我,給我買下了很大的房子,房子很漂亮,但是安靜得嚇人,除了我和兒子,就只有司機和佣人,我連個想好好聊聊天的對象都沒有。唯一能做的事情,就是等他回家。
成龍和我結婚的時候已經27歲了,可是,在內心裡,他依舊是個孩子,沒有強烈的家庭觀念。他愛玩,在他心裡,兄弟朋友永遠第一。只要沒有開工,朋友約他總是來者不拒,哪怕正在生病,也一定會趕去。他多數時間在工作,偶爾的閒暇又給了兄弟,我們母子得到的,只能是兄弟分食的云o蛋糕的包裝盒上剩下的那一丁點殘渣。
只有一次,他晚上8點多就回家了,然後在家幫我掃地。到了12點,我拿個花瓶遞給他:我今天要給你頒個獎-結婚這麼久你第一次晚上沒有出去。他似乎有點不好意思,於是用動作表達對我的愧疚-他將我抱進臥室,一進門,就將我舉過頭頂,忽然向右邊扔了出去。
我們的床就擺在進門右手的地方,他相信,他一定能夠讓我不偏不倚地落到柔軟的床上,發出驚恐卻興奮的叫聲。可是,在家閒得無聊的我已經改變了家具的布局,以前擺床的地方現在立著一套跑步機。
我被摔得一聲慘叫,成龍趕緊將我扶起來,確定我沒受傷後,吐吐舌頭,一溜煙跑了。我不知道自己是該哭還是該笑-這是他唯一一次晚上在家陪我給我帶來的驚喜。
可是,和兒子比較一下,成龍虧欠兒子的比虧欠我的還要多。每個孩子上學,都喜歡炫耀自己的爸爸是做什麼的,可是,祖明不能說。父子倆每日見面的唯一機會,都在半夜 2點以後。
我和兒子,一個是成龍的地下妻子,一個是成龍的祕密兒子。
兒子上學會寫字了,就開始寫日記 —我最大的願望,就是希望爸爸能來接我放學。我把日記給成龍看,他的臉紅一陣白一陣,說:我一定會滿足兒子這個心願 的。可是,轉眼又過了好幾年,他始終沒機會去接兒子。終於有一次,機會來了。
那天早上6點半他剛從美國飛回香港,因為要倒時差,不用開工。他興奮地給司機打電話:告訴祖明,我今天去接他放學! 祖明下午1點鐘放學,一個上午,他盡管呵欠連天,就是不敢睡覺,怕耽誤了接兒子的時間,在家陪著我東坐坐西看看,到了12點半,趕緊開車出了門。
過了1點鐘,兒子的電話來了:媽媽,我找不到爸爸!我給成龍打電話,他說他也找不到祖明?我問他在哪裡等兒子,他說正在小學校門口,我嘆氣,告訴他,兒子已經讀中學了。
過了一會兒,父子兩個悶悶地走了進來,表情都很尷尬。
兒子說:爸爸,我已經讀中學了!成龍說了聲對不起,眼淚就淌了下來。
兒子的第二句話是:我的同學都走光了,我本來想讓他們看看我的爸爸是成龍的,多威風!
成龍繼續流淚,連聲跟兒子道歉。
然後,成龍在大陸接拍了小霸王學習機的廣告,還帶了一張廣告樣品光碟回來。有天晚上,很晚了,我還聽見兒子的房間裡有電視的聲音,輕輕推門進去,兒子正一邊流淚一邊看他爸爸拍的廣告……
以前,我用拳頭打天下﹔現在,我兒子要用小霸王打天下……
我將兒子摟在懷裡,兒子哭出了聲:媽媽,爸爸為什麼不能像廣告裡面那樣對我好?他從來沒有幫我把戴歪的帽子弄正……
那晚,我點一只蠟燭一個人喝紅酒,忽然,我發現,當一間房子裡點起一根蠟燭的時候,房間最暗的地方不是距離蠟燭最遠的角落,而是離蠟燭最近的燭台底部--我和兒子不就像燭台麼?儘管有個星光四射的丈夫和爸爸…… 。我將蠟燭從燭台上取下,放在燭台旁邊,銀質的燭台頓時熠熠生輝。我等待,等待哪天成龍能把我和孩子擺在他的身邊。愛他,是很美的一件事。
1995年, 鄧麗 君辭世,曾經與 鄧麗 君拍拖過的成龍頓時又成了焦點。電台、報社的釆訪接二連三,打開電視,每個頻道都在幫助成龍回憶與 鄧麗 君的戀情,報紙上連篇的都是各種專訪,我丈夫和另一個女人的照片被合成得親密無間。我的心一陣陣痛,可是,不能表露。
對於鄧麗 君的辭世,成龍很悲傷,他甚至在自己的一張個人專輯中,利用電腦將自己 和鄧麗 君的聲音合成在一起,重新演繹了那首《我只在乎你》。我坐在沙發上聽著這首歌發呆。我不能去吃一個故去的人的醋,能做 的,就是默默遞給他一杯酒。我盡可能地壓抑著自己心裡的酸楚,希望他能從對以前女友的緬懷中醒來,擦亮眼睛看見身邊原來還有更好的女人存在。
我的希望沒有落空,他終於發現了身邊的好女人—不過不是我。成龍的每部電影都會有美女搭檔,除了對家人,成龍對身邊的每個人都很細心和照顧,經常在拍片的間隙自己掏錢讓茶水員買甜品請大家吃。
健壯、大方、紳士……他的殺傷力很大。於是,一部戲還沒有殺青,可關於他與戲中女主角的緋聞已經提前上映了。
一開始,只要一聽到這樣的消息我就煩躁得在家砸東西,怒火沖沖地等他回來質問,他的反應很輕鬆:狗仔隊亂寫的,別人也要過活,就當做了善事吧?被我質問太多,他就不再解釋,給我寫了份文件,大意是如果哪天確證他真做出了什麼對不起我的事情,我們就離婚,他會付給我他全
部財產的一半作為賠償。
我告訴他嫁給他不是為了財產,他解釋道:我這樣做也是為了給自己的脖子上套一根繩子,時時提醒自己不要拿自己的財產去玩火。
盡管大火沒有玩起來,星星之火卻一直不斷。1999年10 月,小龍女事件爆發,頓時成了全港最轟動的新聞。
那時,我和兒子正在美國,我很傷心,抓起電話就想打給成龍,劈頭蓋臉痛罵他一頓, 然後,去律師樓宣布那份文件奏效,從此離開這個花心男人。
可是,看著電視上成龍痛苦的臉,我的心也開始痛-他是我唯一愛著的男人,我的老公,我孩子的父親,一直保持英雄形象的他如今正單槍匹馬面對著來自各方的傷害,這個時候,我怎能倒戈相向呢?
於是,我放下電話,耐心地等著他和我聯繫。
兩天後,他的電話來了:喂,我們離婚,你是我老婆,你怎麼講?我深吸一口氣,忍住了快到嘴邊的大哭,不說話。
他似乎覺得我的反應有些奇怪,很小心地問我:你看到報紙了嗎?
我說:我看到了,我一直在等你打電話來。
他沉默一會,說:我不知道怎麼說,電話裡面也講不清楚, 我來美國面對面跟你說吧。他還是在乎我的,在乎我的感受的,我的眼淚慢慢淌出來,我說:你不用著急過來,我只想告訴你,只要你需要,我跟兒子隨時都會站出來支持你的。但是,你不要傷害到人家,我也是女人,我明白她的感受 ……。
電話那邊一直沒說話,只聽見不停抽鼻子的聲音。過了幾天,成龍過來了,一進門,就跟兒子說對不起,兒子說:你不要跟我講,你跟媽媽講好了。然後,我們開了有史以來第一個家庭會議,成龍講了三句話:我知道怎麼做。對不起。開完了!
那晚,成龍很溫柔地陪我,告訴我,他實在覺得自己對不起我,因為,第一,我太好;第二,他這麼多年來都沒有對我好過;第三,他一直對我有戒心。
他說,他認識我以前總是被女人騙,騙得他對所有的女人都不信任,認識我的時候,他也認定我是這樣一個別有用心的女人。可是,事實證明,如果我真是為了錢財的話,只需要去一趟律師樓,馬上就能成為億萬富婆, 可我沒那麼做,依然站在他身後,支持著他。他已經確信,我就是這個世界上唯一不為了任何功利跟著他的女人。
我盡管心中有著隱隱的痛,但仍有著說不出的欣慰:20年,我用自己20年的努力才獲得了這份遲到的信任啊!
然後,成龍回香港,終於將這件事情圓滿解決了,等我回到香港的時候,他已經去律師樓修改了遺囑-上面全部都是我的名字,而且,他會在近期公開承認我陳太太的身份。
如今,我們的生活已經完全改觀了,我們一家三口經常一起出去吃飯,有記者跟蹤, 他就轉身大方地介紹:這是我太太林鳳嬌,和林青霞並稱二林,金馬影后哦﹔這是我兒子,長得像我嗎?
他是我這輩子最大的收獲……我站在一旁,心中百感交集。
愛人跟被愛的方式有很多種,妳會選擇哪種方式呢?……
厲害的女人有很多種,林鳳嬌的厲害在於她對成龍的義無反顧,所以世界上配得起成龍的只有她一個,林鳳嬌,有種!

Wisdom - Sara Teasdale
Against the faultiness of things,
And learned that compromises wait
Behind each hardly opened gate,
When I can look Life in the eyes,
Grown calm and very coldly wise,
Life will have given me the Truth,
And taken in exchange -- my youth.
A Child's Guide to United States Foreign Policy
Q: Daddy, why did we have to attack Iraq?A: Because they had weapons of mass destruction honey.
Q: But the inspectors didn't find any weapons of mass destruction.
A: That's because the Iraqis were hiding them.
Q: And that's why we invaded Iraq?
A: Yep. Invasions always work better than inspections.
Q: But after we invaded them, we STILL didn't find any weapons of mass destruction, did we?
A: That's because the weapons are so well hidden. Don't worry, we'll find something, probably right before the 2008 election.
Q: Why did Iraq want all those weapons of mass destruction?
A: To use them in a war, silly.
Q: I'm confused. If they had all those weapons that they planned to use in a war, then why didn't they use any of those weapons when we went to war with them?
A: Well, obviously they didn't want anyone to know they had those weapons, so they chose to die by the thousands rather than defend themselves.
Q: That doesn't make sense Daddy. Why would they choose to die if they had all those big weapons to fight us back with?
A: It's a different culture. It's not supposed to make sense.
Q: I don't know about you, but I don't think they had any of those weapons our government said they did.
A: Well, you know, it doesn't matter whether or not they had those weapons. We had another good reason to invade them anyway.
Q: And what was that?
A: Even if Iraq didn't have weapons of mass destruction, Saddam Hussein was a cruel dictator, which is another good reason to invade another country.
Q: Why? What does a cruel dictator do that makes it OK to invade his country?
A: Well, for one thing, he tortured his own people.
Q: Kind of like what they do in China?
A: Don't go comparing China to Iraq. China is a good economic competitor, where millions of people work for slave wages in sweatshops to make U.S. corporations richer.
Q: So if a country lets its people be exploited for American corporate gain, it's a good country, even if that country tortures people?
A: Right.
Q: Why were people in Iraq being tortured?
A: For political crimes, mostly, like criticizing the government. People who criticized the government in Iraq were sent to prison and tortured.
Q: Isn't that exactly what happens in China?
A: I told you, China is different.
Q: What's the difference between China and Iraq?
A: Well, for one thing, Iraq was ruled by the Ba'ath party, while China is Communist.
Q: Didn't you once tell me Communists were bad?
A: No, just Cuban Communists are bad.
Q: How are the Cuban Communists bad?
A: Well, for one thing, people who criticize the government in Cuba are sent to prison and tortured.
Q: Like in Iraq?A: Exactly.Q: And like in China, too?
A: I told you, China's a good economic competitor. Cuba, on the other hand, is not.
Q: How come Cuba isn't a good economic competitor?
A: Well, you see, back in the early 1960s, our government passed some laws that made it illegal for Americans to trade or do any business with Cuba until they stopped being communists and started being capitalists like us.
Q: But if we got rid of those laws, opened up trade with Cuba, and started doing business with them, wouldn't that help the Cubans become capitalists?
A: Don't be a smart-ass.
Q: I didn't think I was being one.
A: Well, anyway, they also don't have freedom of religion in Cuba.
Q: Kind of like China and the Falun Gong movement?
A: I told you, stop saying bad things about China. Anyway, Saddam Hussein came to power through a military coup, so he's not really a legitimate leader anyway.
Q: What's a military coup?
A: That's when a military general takes over the government of a country by force, instead of holding free elections like we do in the United States.
Q: Didn't the ruler of Pakistan come to power by a military coup?
A: You mean General Pervez Musharraf? Uh, yeah, he did, but Pakistan is our friend.
Q: Why is Pakistan our friend if their leader is illegitimate?
A: I never said Pervez Musharraf was illegitimate.
Q: Didn't you just say a military general who comes to power by forcibly overthrowing the legitimate government of a nation is an illegitimate leader?
A: Only Saddam Hussein. Pervez Musharraf is our friend, because he helped us invade Afghanistan.
Q: Why did we invade Afghanistan?
A: Because of what they did to us on September 11th.
Q: What did Afghanistan do to us on September 11th?
A: Well, on September 11th, nineteen men, fifteen of them Saudi Arabians, hijacked four airplanes and flew three of them into buildings, killing over 3,000 Americans.
Q: So how did Afghanistan figure into all that?
A: Afghanistan was where those bad men trained, under the oppressive rule of the Taliban.
Q: Aren't the Taliban those bad radical Islamics who chopped off people's heads and hands?
A: Yes, that's exactly who they were. Not only did they chop off people's heads and hands, but they oppressed women, too.
Q: Didn't the Bush administration give the Taliban 43 million dollars back in May of 2001?
A: Yes, but that money was a reward because they did such a good job fighting drugs.
Q: Fighting drugs?
A: Yes, the Taliban were very helpful in stopping people from growing opium poppies.
Q: How did they do such a good job?
A: Simple. If people were caught growing opium poppies, the Taliban would have their hands and heads cut off.
Q: So, when the Taliban cut off people's heads and hands for growing flowers, that was OK, but not if they cut people's heads and hands off for other reasons?
A: Yes. It's OK with us if radical Islamic fundamentalists cut off people's hands for growing flowers, but it's cruel if they cut off people's hands for stealing bread.
Q: Don't they also cut off people's hands and heads in Saudi Arabia?
A: That's different. Afghanistan was ruled by a tyrannical patriarchy that oppressed women and forced them to wear burqas whenever they were in public, with death by stoning as the penalty for women who did not comply.
Q: Don't Saudi women have to wear burqas in public, too?
A: No, Saudi women merely wear a traditional Islamic body covering.
Q: What's the difference?
A: The traditional Islamic covering worn by Saudi women is a modest yet fashionable garment that covers all of a woman's body except for her eyes and fingers. The burqa, on the other hand, is an evil tool of patriarchal oppression that covers all of a woman's body except for her eyes and fingers.
Q: It sounds like the same thing with a different name.
A: Now, don't go comparing Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia. The Saudis are our friends.
Q: But I thought you said 15 of the 19 hijackers on September 11th were from Saudi Arabia.
A: Yes, but they trained in Afghanistan.
Q: Who trained them?
A: A very bad man named Osama bin Laden.
Q: Was he from Afghanistan?
A: Uh, no, he was from Saudi Arabia too. But he was a bad man, a very bad man.
Q: I seem to recall he was our friend once.
A: Only when we helped him and the mujahadeen repel the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan back in the 1980s.
Q: Who are the Soviets? Was that the Evil Communist Empire Ronald Reagan talked about?
A: There are no more Soviets. The Soviet Union broke up in 1990 or thereabouts, and now they have elections and capitalism like us. We call them Russians now.
Q: So the Soviets ? I mean, the Russians ? are now our friends?
A: Well, not really. You see, they were our friends for many years after they stopped being Soviets, but then they decided not to support our invasion of Iraq, so we're mad at them now. We're also mad at the French and the Germans because they didn't help us invade Iraq either.
Q: So the French and Germans are evil, too?
A: Not exactly evil, but just bad enough that we had to rename French fries and French toast to Freedom Fries and Freedom Toast.
Q: Do we always rename foods whenever another country doesn't do what we want them to do?
A: No, we just do that to our friends. Our enemies, we invade.
Q: But wasn't Iraq one of our friends back in the 1980s?
A: Well, yeah. For a while.
Q: Was Saddam Hussein ruler of Iraq back then?
A: Yes, but at the time he was fighting against Iran, which made him our friend, temporarily.
Q: Why did that make him our friend?
A: Because at that time, Iran was our enemy.
Q: Isn't that when he gassed the Kurds?
A: Yeah, but since he was fighting against Iran at the time, we looked the other way, to show him we were his friend.
Q: So anyone who fights against one of our enemies automatically becomes our friend?
A: Most of the time, yes.
Q: And anyone who fights against one of our friends is automatically an enemy?
A: Sometimes that's true, too. However, if American corporations can profit by selling weapons to both sides at the same time, all the better.
Q: Why?
A: Because war is good for the economy, which means war is good for America Also, since God is on America's side, anyone who opposes war is a godless un-American Communist. Do you understand now why we attacked Iraq?
Q: I think so. We attacked them because God wanted us to, right?
A: Yes.
Q: But how did we know God wanted us to attack Iraq?
A: Well, you see, God personally speaks to George W. Bush and tells him what to do.
Q: So basically, what you're saying is that we attacked Iraq because George W. Bush hears voices in his head?
A: Yes! You finally understand how the world works. Now close your eyes, make yourself comfortable, and go to sleep. Good night.

選狼還是選獅子?

上帝對羊群說:「如果你們要狼,就給一隻,任它隨意咬你們。如果你們要獅子,就給兩頭,你們可以在兩頭獅子中任選一頭,還可以隨時更換。」 這道題的問題就是: 如果你也在羊群中,你是選狼還是選獅子? 很容易做出選擇吧? 好吧,記住你的選擇,接著往下看。
南邊那群羊想 ,獅子比狼兇猛得多,還是要狼吧。 於是,它們就要了一隻狼。 北邊那群羊想,獅子雖然比狼兇猛得多, 但我們有選擇權,還是要獅子吧。 於是,它們就要了兩頭獅子。
那隻狼進了南邊的羊群後,就開始吃羊。 狼身體小,食量也小,一隻羊夠它吃幾天了。 這樣羊群幾天才被追殺一次。
北邊那群羊挑選了一頭獅子,另一頭則留在上帝那裡。 這頭獅子進入羊群後,也開始吃羊。獅子不但比狼兇猛,而且食量驚人,每天都要吃一隻羊。 這樣羊群就天天都要被追殺,驚恐萬狀。 羊群趕緊請上帝換一頭獅子。
不料,上帝保管的那頭獅子一直沒有吃東西, 正飢餓難耐,它撲進羊群, 比前面那頭獅子咬得更瘋狂。 羊群一天到晚只是逃命,連草都快吃不成了。南邊的羊群慶幸自己選對了天敵, 又嘲笑北邊的羊群沒有眼光。
北邊的羊群非常後悔,向上帝大倒苦水,要求更換天敵,改要一隻狼。
上帝說:「天敵一旦定, 就不能更改,必須世代相隨,你們唯一的權利是在兩頭獅子中選擇。」
北邊的羊群只好把兩頭獅子不斷更換。 可兩頭獅子同樣凶殘, 換哪一頭都比南邊的羊群悲慘得多, 它們索性不換了,讓一頭獅子吃得膘肥體壯, 另一頭獅子則餓得精瘦。
眼看那頭瘦獅子快要餓死了,羊群才請上帝換一頭。 這頭瘦獅子經過長時間的飢餓後, 慢慢悟出了一個道理: 自己雖然兇猛異常,一百隻羊都不是對手, 可是自己的命運是操縱在羊群手裡的。
羊群隨時可以把自己送回上帝那裡, 讓自己飽受飢餓的煎熬,甚至有可能餓死。
想通這個道理後,瘦獅子就對羊群特別客氣, 只吃死羊和病羊,凡是健康的羊它都不吃了。
羊群喜出望外, 有幾隻小羊提議乾脆固定要瘦獅子,不要那頭肥獅子了。 一隻老公羊提醒: 「瘦獅子是怕我們送它回上帝那裡挨餓, 才對我們這麼好。 萬一肥獅子餓死了, 我們沒有了選擇的餘地, 瘦獅子很快就會恢復凶殘的本性。」
羊群覺得老羊說得有理,為了不讓另一頭獅子餓死,它們趕緊把它換回來。
原先膘肥體壯的那頭獅子, 已經餓得只剩下皮包骨頭了, 並且也懂得了自己的命運是操縱在羊群手裡的道理。 為了能在草原上待久一點,它竟百般討好起羊群來。 而那頭被送交給上帝的獅子 ,則難過得流下了眼淚。 北邊的羊群在經歷了重重磨難後, 終於過上了自由自在的生活。
南邊的那群羊的處境卻越來越悲慘了, 那隻狼因為沒有競爭對手,羊群又無法更換它, 它就胡作非為,每天都要咬死幾十隻羊, 這隻狼早已不吃羊肉了,它只喝羊心裡的血。
它還不准羊叫,哪只叫就立刻咬死哪只。 南邊的羊群只能在心中哀歎: 「早知道這樣,還不如要兩頭獅子。」
這是一道非常簡單的選擇題, 據我多次親自嘗試的經驗,如果拿來問歐美的朋友, 大多數人都會選獅子, 但是如果拿來問我們自己華人, 大多數人都會選狼(包括我自己)。
領悟到了嗎?握有決定權的才有生機, 否則只有任人宰割的份了。
同哀同傷 加油再上

三分鐘默哀之後,響徹北京天安門廣場的,是「中國加油」、「四川加油」的呼聲。一次無情的天災,激起國人團結抗逆的決心,築起齊心自強的血肉長城。
要為抗震救災加油,第一個打氣對象,是在逆境中求生的災民,以及在現場以各種方式繼續搶救生命的人員。解放軍、搜救人員、醫護人員、物資運送人員等,都繼續夙夜匪懈工作。還有工程人員和水利人員,為堤壩防險。特別值得一提的,是為災區打通道路的工人。
這些不顯眼的修路工人,是在最危險的時刻在最危險的地方工作,為救援車隊打通救命之路。他們清理傾瀉下來的大量山泥,修復道路,讓載滿救援人員和物資的車隊前往震央重災區。災區餘震不絕,山泥續有傾瀉,有些打通了的道路又因餘震重新被封,工人要爭分奪秒清理,除工作勞累之外,還冒遭餘震崩塌下來的山泥活埋的危險。據交通運輸部公路司司長戴東昌透露,已經有二百多名交通人員在搶通時被泥石流吞沒,他們犧牲人數是各類救災人員之冠。
救災資源靠日積月累
今次國家展示的救災實力和效率,中央「以人為本」的基本管治理念、領導人親臨現場督師和解放軍的救災傳統,是原因之一,開放傳媒報道,打動人心,激起海內外紛紛主動貢獻人力物力,是原因之二,尤其是內地企業和民眾捐贈款項和物資的熱情和金額,更是前所未有之巨大。

《一首詩》A Poem
《華盛頓郵報》日前刊出一首由紐約州立大學水牛城分校榮譽退休物理學教授Duo-Liang Lin所作的詩,道盡西方對中國的雙重標準。當我們是「東亞病夫」,我們被稱為「黃禍」。
當我們被宣傳為下一個「超級強國」,我們被稱為「威脅」。
當我們關上門戶,你們走私毒品來打開市場。
當我們擁抱自由貿易,你們指責我們奪走你們的工作。
當我們分裂成碎片,你們的軍隊操進來想分一份。
當我們想把碎片拼回,你們叫囂「這是入侵,西藏自由」。
當我們試行共產主義,你們恨我們是共產黨人。
當我們擁抱資本主義,你們恨我們是資本家。
當我們有十億人,你們說我們正毀滅地球。
當我們嘗試控制人口,你們說我們傷害人權。
當我們窮,你們認為我們是狗。
當我們借鈔票給你們,你們指責我們令你們國家負債。
當我們建立我們的工業,你們稱我們為「污染國」。
當我們向你們出售商品,你們指責我們令地球暖化。
當我們購買石油,你們稱之為剝削和種族滅絕。
當你們為石油而開戰,你們稱之解放。
當我們迷失於混亂和狂躁,你們要求法治。
當我們捍衛法治打擊暴亂,你們稱之違反人權。
當我們沉默,你們說希望我們有言論自由。
當我們不再沉默,你們說我們是被洗腦的仇外者。
為甚麼你們如此恨我們,我們問。
不,你們回答,我們不恨你們。
我們也不恨你們。
但,你們明白我們嗎?
我們當然明白,你們說,
我們有法新社、CNN、BBC……
其實你們想從我們這兒得到甚麼?
想清楚,再回答……
因為你們只獲得這麼多的機會。
夠了夠了,這同一個世界已夠虛偽。
我們要的是同一個世界、同一個夢想和世界和平。
這個藍色大地球大得足以容納我們所有人。
英文原稿
A Poem Published by the Washington Post
When we were the Sick Man of Asia, We were called The Yellow Peril.
When we are billed to be the next Superpower, we are called The Threat.
When we closed our doors, you smuggled drugs to open markets.
When we embrace Free Trade, You blame us for taking away your jobs.
When we were falling apart, You marched in your troops and wanted your fairshare.
When we tried to put the broken pieces back together again, Free Tibet youscreamed, It Was an Invasion!
When tried Communism, you hated us for being Communist.
When we embrace Capitalism, you hate us for being Capitalist.
When we have a billion people, you said we were destroying the planet.
When we tried limiting our numbers, you said we abused human rights.
When we were poor, you thought we were dogs.
When we loan you cash, you blame us for your national debts.
When we build our industries, you call us Polluters.
When we sell you goods, you blame us for global warming.
When we buy oil, you call it exploitation and genocide.
When you go to war for oil, you call it liberation.
When we were lost in chaos and rampage, you demanded rules of law.
When we uphold law and order against violence, you call it violating humanrights.
When we were silent, you said you wanted us to have free speech.
When we are silent no more, you say we are brainwashed-xenophobics.
Why do you hate us so much, we asked.
No, you answered, we don't hate you.
We don't hate you either,
But, do you understand us?
Of course we do, yousaid,
We have AFP, CNN and BBC's...
What do you really want from us?
Thinkhard first, then answer...
Because you only get so many chances.
Enough is Enough, Enough Hypocrisy for This One World.
We want One World, One Dream,and Peace on Earth.
This Big Blue Earth is Big Enough for all of Us.

當習慣變成愛





趙安娜(韓藝瑟)生於大富之家,從小因父母雙亡而繼承龐大遺產,當最疼她的婆婆病逝之後,她發現只要一打開錢包,身邊人就眉開眼笑,她由失望到鄙視他們,慢慢封閉自己的内心,既然有財富做通行證,安娜變得目中無人,不可一世,到長大成人,被一個叫朴比利的男人熱烈追求,跟他結婚不過是因爲女大當嫁,反正所有人都見錢眼開,有了比利,便可以令其他觀音兵知難而退,耳根清靜。
樂天知命的張哲修(吳志昊)因爲兄嫂死於交通意外,無怨無悔地撫養三個侄兒,放棄他的理想和初戀情人友菁,只要可以賺錢的工程,不論大小水電土木,他都樂於承接,為求得到更多工作,他樂於奉承別人,變得唯利是圖。
天意安排二人再三發生誤會結怨,當哲修在醫院碰見因意外墮海而失憶的安娜,由於醫護人員以爲他們認識對方,哲修將計就計,騙她是自己女友,接她回家做「阿四」,替她改名麥道舞(乜都無),讓她睡客廳沙發,要她做家務,以抵償之前安娜未付的工錢,安娜對家務一竅不通,做飯幾乎變成火燒家園,悶悶不樂就要吃炸醬麵和喝燒酒,喝醉了就睡車站,本性還是不自覺地目中無人,哲修初感得不償失,漸漸發現安娜學懂做家務,學懂關心別人和開懷大笑,二人由不時鬥氣大戰到日久生情,過程很有趣。
當安娜恢復記憶,無奈囘到丈夫朴比利家中,因爲習慣了睡沙發,寧願睡在客廳,比利為逗她高興,找來名廚弄炸醬麵,安娜卻吃不到和哲修一起吃的味道,淚如泉湧... 最後當然是大團圓結局。
去年冬天很冷,機緣巧合,我爸買了數張電暖被,有如劇中張哲修替趙安娜做的一樣,有了它,會想起這韓劇,感覺溫暖。
我都希望習慣會變成愛,可是我只見過愛變成習慣。

Madonna - Like it or not
You can call me a sinner
and you can call me a saint
Celebrate me for who I am
Dislike me for what I ain’t
Put me up on a pedestal
Or drag me down in the dirt
Sticks and stones will break my bones
But your names will never hurt
I’ll be the garden, you’ll be the snake
All of my fruit is yours to take
Better the devil that you know
Your love for me will grow
Because
This is who I am
You can like it or not
You can love me or leave me
Cause I’m never gonna stop, no no
Cleopatra had her way
Mata Hari too
Whether they were good or bad
Is strictly up to you
Life is a paradox
And it doesn’t make much sense
You can't have the femme without the fatale
Please don’t take offense
Don’t let the fruit rot under the vine
Fill up your cup and let’s drink the wine
Better the devil that you know
Your love for me will grow
Because
This is who I am
You can like it or not
You can love me or leave me
Cause I’m never gonna stop,
no no, you know
This is who I am
You can like it or not
You can love me or leave me
Cause I’m never gonna stop,
no no, you know
No no, you know
No no, you know
No no, you know
No no, you know
I’ll be the garden, you’ll be the snake
All of my fruit is yours to take
Better the devil that you know
Your love for me will grow
Because
This is who I am
You can like it or not
You can love me or leave me
Cause I’m never gonna stop, no no, you know
This is who I am
You can like it or not
You can love me or leave me
Cause I’m never gonna stop, no no, you know
No no, you know
No no, you know
No no, you know
No no, you know
酷人唱酷歌!
