Edward Lam’s What is Man? – The Tragedy of Modern Man
Director Edward Lam directing a modern version of The Water Margin? Needless to say, the result is not a traditional folk tale, but a modern play with a humanistic, 21st century approach.
Born in Hong Kong, Edward is a founding member of avant-garde theatre group Zuni Icosahedron as well as the Artistic Director of Edward Lam Dance Theatre. With a portfolio of more than 40 productions, Edward is an iconic figure in the Hong Kong theatre scene.
An approach he often adopts in his work is the setting of modern storylines and mindsets within the framework of classical novels. For example, while Madame Bovary is Me is an adaptation of Gustave Flaubert’s novel, it depicts the sorrow and joy of women in the upper echelons of a consumerist society. Similarly, What is Man? borrows from a Chinese classic, The Water Margin, in its exploration of the concept of the hero in modern man.
The Influence of The Lord of the Rings and Andy Lau
What is Man? is part of a project by Edward Lam in which he reinvents the four great Chinese literary classics. As the Chinese hold these four works in the highest esteem, many directors would feel daunted by the challenge of adapting them for theatre. Edward, however, admits frankly that he was instead inspired by the film trilogy of The Lord of the Rings.
He observes that films adapted from novels, such as The Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter, often feature a new series every year, creating a sense of anticipation among its audience. He says that this was what spurred him to produce something similar for Chinese theatre - the staging of a new theatrical adaptation of one of the four great Chinese classics every year.
“With each instalment, not only would the Chinese audience be filled with anticipation”, says Edward. “We would also be able to view ancient culture through the lens of modern society and discover elements for further fermentation or re-interpretation.”
According to Edward’s plans, What is Man? (2006 - 2007) is the first of his project’s four works, followed by What is Fantasy (on the chinese classic Journey to the West)?, The Romance of Three Kingdoms and The Dream of the Red Chamber. The timing of the productions’ release has great significance for Edward. The year 2007 marks the 100th anniversary of the modern Chinese theatre. 100 years ago, Western theatre arrived in China. Today, the production, What is Fantasy?, gives usthe opportunity to become re-acquainted with ourselves. Next year, the production The Romance of Three Kingdoms will coincide with the release of John Woo’s new film based on the same novel, and hopefully a public fervour for this classic work Three Kingdoms will be ignited.
Interestingly, Edward’s selection of The Water Margin as the first production to kick off the series of adaptations was influenced by movie star Andy Lau. When Edward discussed his plans to bring these four classic novels to the theatre with Andy, the latter expressed keen interest in Edward’s proposal and offered to act in it and plan to release an album on Hero, in conjunction with the production.
Edward’s initial plan was to cast Andy in the role of the Director, a character whose voice the audience hears during the play and whose identity is only revealed when he takes to the stage during the curtain call. Eventually, Andy’s schedule for the film The Warlords excluded him from this production. But the fact that he was a catalyst behind the staging of What’s Man? remains.
Symbols of masculinity in What is Man?
In the original novel, The Water Margin tells the story of a gang of heroes forced by society to retreat to the Liang Mountain (or Liang Shan). In contrast, Edward’s play What is Man? begins with an audition for four actors.
In it, nine participating actors - modelled after heroes from The Water Margin - pit their acting skills against one another in different scenarios during the audition. On the surface, they bond as a band of brothers. But beneath the friendly facade, they secretly plot against one another.
Explains Edward, “the play’s storyline, language and costume are completely different from those of the original work. But we have retained the characterisation in The Water Margin”. He basically conceived What is Man? as an “RPG” or role playing game. To create his characters, he analysed the male characters in the novel, and came up with nine symbols of tragic heroism - Tiger, Wanderer, Precious Weapon, Human Flesh, The Boss, Gambler, Thief, Wine and Lotus - each representing a particular desire and aspect of man.
Says Edward, “In examining these traditional heroes, we discovered that beneath the glorified exteriors lay feelings of anxiety and loss, and the misappropriation of capabilities.” To illustrate his point, Edward gives the example of the character, Wanderer. His Wanderer is Yan Qing, a modern-day surfer who cruises through love and woman with the like how he ride the waves. Seemingly pleased with his popularity among women, he is however, plagued by inner fears. Another example is the character of Lu Zhishen whom Edward depicts as a drunkard lamenting the sorrows of man on quiet streets at three o’clock in the morning.
“Men in this new age are raised by their mothers with the utmost care”, observes Edward. “They display tough facades but are fragile within. When faced with pressures and ordeals, do they conform or escape? Do they rebel individually or do they do so in groups? What sort of pressures would force them to retreat to the proverbial Liang Mountain… What I seek to reveal are these men’s true selves and the pressures they face in life.”
In addition to the masculine symbolism, the play features a classic triad storyline woven into its plot. This is because Edward believes that The Water Margin is the source from which the genre of the triad movie sprang.
“The story in The Water Margin, much like the movie Infernal Affairs, revolves around the theme of brotherhood, and features characters like the Boss and his henchmen”, says Edward. “And its women, like the wives in triad movies, are always sources of temptation and nuisance”.
Reflecting society’s desires
From role-playing games to triad films to male soliloquies, popular elements of today’s society fill Edward’s What is Man.
His cast includes several rising stars from Taiwan such as Golden Horse Award for Best Supporting Actor nominee Joseph Chang (of Eternal Summer fame), film actor Chen Chang’s brother Han Chang, new Peking opera star Sebastien Chien and film/TV comedian David Wang, as well as Pin-Chen Chou (of the film Double Vision), Ying-Shine (of the drama The Magicians of Love), and actors Hung-Chang Chu, Chien-Chang Lee, Hugh Shih, Ethan Wei, Morning Mo and Yu-Lin Ling.
Societal trends in entertainment and burgeoning consumerism are topics that have always fascinated Edward. “Novels are closely tied to society”, he says. “Shi Nai’an (the author of The Water Margin) is actually an editor who has compiled popular folk tales into a work of fiction, so you can think of The Water Margin as being the classic equivalent of today’s Apple Daily. The adaptation of The Water Margin for theatre today necessitates the use of vocabulary and sentence structure commonly used by the general public today, particularly the language of popular culture.”
Edward feels that in this era of thriving consumerism and the internet culture, people have begun losing their sense of individual autonomy. The result is that people have started to seek to define themselves and win approval through avenues such as singing competitions and other platforms in popular culture – a culture that reflects the latent desires of modern man.
Viewing The Water Margin in the context of a social phenomenon, Edward then asks: What is man? How can he find himself?
Edward does not find his approach to theatre sensational or bold. “If my methods seem sensational, it is only because I’ve not adhered to traditional theatre; my work reflects life in all its reality.” As such, his productions are popular with the younger audience, embraced for being attuned to current trends and for raising issues for contemplation.
Edward jokes that “the characters in The Water Margin rebel against royalty and authority, and are inclined to subversion. I will stick to this spirit of subversion in my approach to theatre.”
Shanghai Blues – A Musical of Love Amidst Chaos
Through song and dance - the age-old languages of love and passion - Shanghai Blues tells a story of love in turbulent times. Bittersweet and tender, its depiction of an inexplicable connection between soulmates conveys an innocence and romance lacking in contemporary society.
Bridging love and yearning
As the curtains are drawn, a solitary bridge is revealed and its story gradually unfolds.
This bridge, according to Director Goh Boon Teck, is not only an important prop, it is, more importantly, a key symbol and metaphor. In the musical, Tu Yun and Wen Chong chance upon each other under the bridge as they seek shelter from a wartime air raid. From their short conversation in the dark sparks an immediate connection and mutual attraction that later on grows into a yearning for each other. After the war eight years later, Wen Chong returns to the same spot in the hope of meeting “the girl with soft, plaited hair” under the bridge again.
“It is a bridge of emotions and a bridge of history. It bridges love and dreams, the present and the past”, says Boon Teck.
Toy Factory’s third Raymond To work
Boon Teck emphasises that it was not his natural inclination towards producing musicals but the script that prompted him to stage Shanghai Blues.
“A heart-wrenching tale of a love triangle set against a war-ravaged Shanghai, replete with the dramatic intensity that tumultuous circumstances inevitably give rise to, as can be seen in the three lead characters’ emotional development”, says Boon Teck. “It will be touching. Audiences will love it.”
Written by well-known Hong Kong scriptwriter Raymond To, the musical is the third production that Boon Teck has staged which was based on a script by the playwright, the first two being I Have a Date with Spring and Mad Phoenix. To this day, Boon Teck feels grateful to Raymond To. “When Toy Factory was founded, nobody knew who we were. So when I actually mustered the courage to fax a note to Raymond whom I was a fan of, I never expected him to reply. But he did and I was beyond words!”
Perhaps it is this experience that inspires Boon Teck to continually nurture newcomers who are always welcomed in his productions. “Without a first try, how will newcomers ever have a second and third opportunity?” he muses. Hence, many first-time performers and crew members are involved in a production as large in scale as Shanghai Blues.
Songs of an era
To produce music that would reflect the period in which the tale is set as well as underscore the drama of the story, young local composer Phillip Tan is composing new songs for Shanghai Blues, as well as rearranging several of William So’s hits and many old songs. Also included in the production will be old Shanghai classics such as Side of Suzhou River and Fragrance of White Orchids. In addition, the famous Night Breeze written by talented Hong Kong composer-lyricist James Wong will be the production’s theme song, and accompany the story as it slowly unfolds. Performing the music live will be a six-member ensemble playing Chinese and Western instruments.
Boon Teck believes that the essence of the production lies in its combination of a great script, delicate emotions, and its depiction of the spirit of the era portrayed. As such, he expects his actors to be able to both sing and act. After they have received a copy of the script, he always arranges for them to attend seminars, concerts and films before formal rehearsals begin. For this production set in 1930s Shanghai, young performers had to discover the “flavour” of Shanghai in that period in order to realistically portray the sentiments of that era.
William, Mindee and Emma
Hong Kong singer-actor William So plays the male lead of Wen Chong. Known as a crooner of love ballads, William is the undisputed choice for this role for which he is as thrilled as he is apprehensive. (See article on William’s interview)
The two female lead characters Tu Yun and Dan Lei are played by Mindee Ong and Emma Yong respectively. The petite Mindee Ong, fresh from a well-received performance as Small Papaya in Royston Tan’s film 881, sees a bit of herself in Tu Yun.
“We are both women who walk the talk, and when it comes to love, we are both faithful to the one we give our heart to.” Mindee also points out that, with her tendency to keep alone and silent when she feels down, she shares Tu Yun’s habit of “burying her emotions”. If Tu Yun were to be described in terms of the four seasons, muses Mindee, she would be “winter on the outside and summer within”, because buried within her cool exterior is a fervent yearning for love.
The character of Dan Lei, however, is quite different. Emma sees her as a passionate girl who is humourous, materialistic and generous to those she loves. She is certain that she shares some character traits with the guileless Dan, “but only her ‘innocence’.” Says Emma, “I would definitely not make such a huge self-sacrifice for the sake of love!”
Acting, singing and dancing in Shanghai Blues pose no problems for both Mindee and Emma. In fact Mindee had her first break in a singing contest but says, “I still prefer theatre.” From TV sitcom Different Cuts Different Strokes, and Momo by Drama Box, to the recent If There're Season by Theatre Practice, Mindee has come a long way and her experience has only reaffirmed her preference for theatre.
Emma, on the other hand, received her training in musicals, having performed in several such as Dick Lee’s Beauty World and Mortal Sins. “But I hardly sing Mandarin songs”, she says. “So I will listen to as many Mandarin albums as I can, especially songs from the 30s and 40s to accurately grasp the singing techniques and styles.”

仇~~~~是這樣報的!
我有一個親戚常常把安全帽掛在車上,他懶得每次帶回家,
再加上他又住在鬧區附近,所以他安全帽的失竊率超高,
從九百塊一頂到九十九塊一頂都有人偷。
可是他又超有原則,絕對不偷拿別人安全帽。
所以常常在安全帽被偷後未帶安全帽,
騎車去買安全帽的途中,就被鬼鬼祟祟的警察攔下開單(屢試不爽),
任憑你怎麼解釋安全帽剛被偷,警察照開不誤。
有一天新買不久的安全帽又被偷,他火大了,
一想到每次只要相信人性本善,就有無恥小偷順手牽羊,
於是他突發奇想,買了一頂九十九元的安全帽,
在內側塗上滿滿的強力膠,然後放到機車上。
嘿!嘿!嘿!
當天晚上果然聽到一聲慘叫(市區公寓大家住得近),
然後一連串的三字五字咒罵聲,他滿意的帶著睡意入眠。
過了幾天居然有警察上門拜訪,因為他被人控告惡意傷害。
原來幹他安全帽的小偷頭髮被迫剃掉一大塊,
然後小偷按他的牌照去警察局報案,所以警察來關切一下。
我親戚聽到差點笑死,
他說:「我在我安全帽上塗強力膠是我家的事,誰叫他要偷我安全帽」,
沒想到小偷說法更絕,說他只是覺得那頂安全帽跟他前一陣子被偷走的很像,
因此他要求我親戚賠償他五萬元精神損失,否則上法庭。
我親戚的回答更絕:
「你覺得那頂安全帽跟你前一陣子被偷走的很像,
所以只是想試戴看看是不是你遺失的那頂,
那如果我看你老婆跟我老婆很像,
那我是不是可以拿來用用」。^^

DO YOU KNOW ?
"Stewardesses" is the longest word typed with only the left hand and "lollipop" with your right. (Bet you tried this out mentally, didn't you?)
"Dreamt" is the only English word that ends in the letters "mt". (Are you doubting this?)
The sentence: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" uses every letter of the alphabet. (Now, you KNOW you're going to try this out for accuracy, right?)
The words 'racecar,' 'kayak' and 'level' are the same whether they are read left to right or right to left (palindromes). (Yep, I knew you were going to "do" this one.)
There are only four words in the English language which end in "dous": tremendous, horrendous, stupendous, and hazardous. (You're not doubting this, are you?)
There are two words in the English language that have all five vowels in order: "abstemious" and "facetious." (Yes, admit it, you are going to say . a e i o u)
TYPEWRITER is the longest word that can be made using the letters only on one row of the keyboard. (All you typists are going to test this out)

Jesmen 的21岁生日
虽然过了满久,但一直都没有时间Blog下来。现在终于可以喘口气,尽量的把那零碎的记忆,拼凑起来。
21岁,可以说是人生的一个转折点,很多人都很重视这一天。 毕竟,过了这一天,就成为了名副其实的成人了。
对于Jesmen,我心中都有一股亏欠,是那种对于兄弟之间,不够关心的亏欠。
以前我们可以说是无话不谈的好友,但现在却只剩下客套的嘘寒问暖,中间好像有着莫名的尴尬气氛隔着我们之间。
有时候,很想跟他吃个饭,谈一下。
但该死的我,总是有处理不完的事情,开不完的会议。
就这样一拖再拖,友谊也慢慢的淡了下去。
对于他,我总是很关心,也很担心。
但是他的世界好像离我越来越远,我们俩的话题也变得越来越少。
是我太过孤僻了吗?
很高兴,他邀请我参加了他的BIRTHDYAY PARTY,
很高兴,他还记得我。
这是一种感动,你知道吗?
那天,我们还发现了JESMEN的天份,
没想到他还会自己创作,自编自唱。
歌声不错,但是歌词太过有创意,
什么“我要吃CHICKEN,不要吃MUTTON” 都跑了出来,
笑死大家!
有音乐天份的JESMEN,还自拍MV,
演技、对嘴功力一流,如果他参加新传媒,
一定可以拿下一座红星大奖!
哈哈,JESMEN你一定要好好加油,
我一定会支持你的啊!
PS
在庆祝了18年的生日过后,我已经不再庆祝生日,不唱生日快乐歌,不吃生日蛋糕!这是我个人的小小的坚持,我知道我的生日快要来了,不过我希望请大家可以尊重我的选择。谢谢。 =)

$4.50
Last night I went to canteen 5 to have my dinner. I ordered fish ball noodle plus dumplings, the dumpligs were as small as the wantons, and belive me, the fish ball noodle was a disaster. It was dry and tasteless. What made me angry was that, this meal actaully caused me $4.50! Grrrr.
So in order to make myself feel better. I went to Jurong point after the dinner, and I bought myself an ANDERSON ice cream (Cookies and Cream flavour), it caused me exactly the same price $4.50, but that was much much much more worth it man!
P.S this week TOTO prediction : 0450
If you are lucky enough to strike any price, please treat me another ANDERSON icecream. Lolx.

十一條氣死朋友的短訊
1‧跟你做了這麼久的朋友,你一直都很關心我,我卻時常給你添麻煩,真不知該怎麼服答你。所以,下輩子你作牛作馬,我一定拔草給你吃
2‧如果你是流星我就追定你,如果你是衛星我就等待你,如果你是恆星我就戀上你,可惜 你是一隻猩猩,我只可以去動物園探你
3‧遇到你,是我心動的開始;愛上你,是我幸福的選擇;擁有你,是我最珍貴的財富;踏入紅毯,是我永恆的動力。遺憾的是 ── 我傳錯人了
4‧因為你,我相信命運的安排,也陶醉。一切都是上天注定,冥冥之中牽引著我倆。現在的我想說的是 ── 我上輩子是造了什麼孽呀?
5‧為了整頓市容,明天開始決定清除所有長相醜陋、有損市容的弱智青年!你趕快收拾東西,出去避避風頭,千萬別跟人說是我通知你的,切記!不必言謝!
6‧上帝看見你口渴,創造了水;上帝看見你餓,創造了米;上帝看見你沒有可愛的朋友,創造了我;然而他也看見這世界上沒有白癡,順便也創造你。
7‧想你是件快樂的事!愛你是我永遠要做的事!把你放在心上是我一直在做的事!不過,騙你是正在發生的事!
8‧根據統計,超過 99.9 % 長得像豬頭的人都用大拇指來按鈕看短訊!嘿嘿,不用換手了,已經來不及了啦,豬頭!-
9‧如果長得漂亮是一種錯,我已經鑄成大錯;如果聰明是一種罪,我已經犯下滔天大罪,做人可真難。但你就好啦,既沒錯又沒罪,我真羨慕你!
10‧如果說燒一年的香可以與你相遇,燒三年的香可以與你相識,燒十年的香可以與你相惜。所以,為了我下輩子的幸福,我願意 ── 改信基督!
11.你是世界上最漂亮的一朵花,為這個世界加一點生氣,我願意----每天淋屎給你做營養!

感动
某天晚上留在办公室工作,听到门外一直有一些讲话的声音,好像在说什么“轮到你进去看医生了”,其他的含含糊糊就听不是很清楚,偶尔也听到几个人笑成一团。我也没有在意,反正办公室里的会议室,常常有研究生在上课。我以为是研究生上课之外,有的在排队见老师。
后来开门出去,见到是几个一、二年级的同学,还真有点意外。问他们在做什么,他们说,会议室里在进行面试,他们有的刚面试完,有的在等着进去面试。
原来会议室里的是刚选出来的系学会的几个执委,因为执委会里还有几个空缺,就请同学来面试,以决定适合的就招入执委会中。
知道是这么回事,我很感动。
准备面试的同学进出会议室时,从门缝中,看到几个执委很认真的坐成一排,像是在进行一项严肃的工作。几个大二的同学我都蛮熟的。我想起他们之中,有的曾经是坐在那个 interviewee 的位子上,而我是那个 interviewer. 他们现在已经坐在我曾经坐的位子上了。
几个在等待面试的同学中,有几个是大一的新生。这个学期我只上他们的讲堂课,很少机会和他们个别交流。趁着这个机会,就和他们闲聊起来。谈话之间,让我对他们的想法和感受有更多一点的认识。
系学会并不是大学正式注册的学会,这一届的执委,重要的工作之一,就是要筹备系学会的正式运作。参加大学的正式学会当上执委,是可以取得分数,而这些分数是能够让同学们申请宿舍。可能还有其他的用处,我就不知道了。
可是,这些同学,上了一天课,晚上留下来面试,其他的时候还要开会、为中文系的同学筹备各种活动,而他们是没有分数可得的。那些当上执委的同学,都是参加竞选,发表过竞选演讲,而且是在有对手的情况之下,二选一或三选一,多数票选出来的呢。要找填补空缺的执委,竟然不是去求人加入,而还要通过面试。
我的感动,是因为这些年轻人,可以为了某种理想,为了所有同学,或者为了一种服务的精神或群体生活的热情,可以不是为了分数,不是为了某种物质的回报,而参与中文系学会的工作。
大学为了公平与透明,实行了参与活动可以获得分数的制度化做法,真的是一种比较好的做法吗?从教育的角度来说,我不得不感到怀疑。
制度!制度!当人性被泯灭的时候,也许就是制度发生作用的时候。
看到同学的行为和态度没有受到制度的约束和压迫,我真的很感动,也很高兴。

For several years, a man was having an affair with an Italian woman.
One night, she confided in him that she was pregnant.
Not wanting to ruin his reputation or his marriage, he paid her a large
sum of money if she would go to Italy to secretly have the child. If she
stayed in Italy to raise the child, he would also provide child support
until the child turned 18.
She agreed, but asked how he would know when the baby was born.
To keep it discrete, he told her to simply mail him a post card,
and write"Spaghetti" on the back. He would then arrange for the
child support payments to begin.
One day, about 9 months later, he came home to his confused wife.
"Honey," she said, "you received a very strange post card today."
"Oh, just give it to me and I'll explain it later," he said. The wife
obeyed and watched as her husband read the card, turned white, and
fainted.
On the card was written: "Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti,
Spaghetti. Three with meatballs, two without. Send extra sauce."

很感人的一篇文章, 分享給你 !
和另一女人約會?
結婚了廿一年後,我發現了一種別出心裁的方法,
可以讓愛的火花永保新鮮。
不久以前 ,我和另一位女士約會,其實那還是我妻子的主意,
有一天她說:「我知道你很愛她。」我很驚訝,立刻爭辯說:
「但我愛的是妳呀!」「我知道,但你也愛她呀!」
我妻子要我去看的女士是我的母親。
她已經寡居了十九年,然而我忙碌的工作和身為二個孩子父親的責任,令我分身乏術,
以致很少有時間和她相聚。
那晚,我打電話給她,邀約她第二天和我一起吃晚餐和看電影。
「怎麼了,你還好嗎?」她問道。
母親是那種會認為晚上那麼晚打電話,又突然邀約她
,一定不會有什麼好事的人。
「我想如果有機會和妳單獨約會,一定很有意思。」我回答。
她想了一會兒,然後說:「我非常樂意。」
那個星期五下班以後,我開車去接她時,心裡有一點緊張,
因為從未嚐試過這樣的約會 。
當我到達她家時,我看她對這樣的約會,似乎也有一點緊張。
她在門內等著,身上穿著大衣, 裡面那件禮服
還是最後一次慶祝結婚紀念日所穿的呢!
她的頭髮還特意捲了一下,臉上 的微笑像天使一般。
上了車後,她得意洋洋地說:「我告訴我的朋友,我要和我的兒子外出約會,他們都好
羨慕,迫不及待要聽聽我們約會的情形。」
我們去一家雖不豪華,但十分雅致,溫暖舒適的餐廳。
我母親挽住我的臂彎,好像第一夫人一般。
入座以後,我必須幫她看菜單點菜,
因為她的眼睛現在只有大的字才看得見。
用餐一半時,我抬起頭來,看到母親正在凝視我,
嘴角帶著懷舊的笑容說:「記得當你小時候,總是我為你看菜單的。」「那現在妳正好
可以休息,輪到我來為妳服務了。」我回答。
一面享用晚餐,我們一面聊天,聊得很愉快,
談了許多最近幾年來,各自生命中的一些 事。
我們聊得太久了,所以趕不上電影。當我送她回到家門口,
她說「我要再和你一起外出 ,但下次讓我作東好嗎?」我答應了。
回家後,妻子問我:「你的晚餐約會如何?」
「非常有意思,比我想像的好多了!」~我 回答。
幾天以後,母親因心臟病猝發而去世。這事發生得太突然了,
讓我完全措手不及。
不久以後,我收到一封信,裡面是上次我和母親約會的那家餐館的一張收據,上面有一
張字條寫著:「我已先付了賬,因為我確定自己不可能再有機會去了,但我還是付了兩
人份的賬 ──你和你的妻子。
你絕對想不到那一晚的約會對我有多大的意義,我愛你。」
從那一刻起,我深深體會,一定要及時說:
「我愛你」,並且要常常撥出時間給我們所愛的人。
世上沒有任何事比自然如來因緣和你的家庭更重要,
多花時間和他們在一起,因為這事絕不能拖延到「以後有時間時?」。
「 樹欲靜而風不止,子欲養而親不待 」 是人生一大憾事。

那大的孩子
昨天MOLLY要出門上學時,因弟弟ALLEN不小心打翻了湯,
弄髒了她的衣服,差一點讓她遲到....
她有點生氣.....
晚上睡前,我與她分享了一段網路上流傳的文章,發生在911雙子星大廈爆炸案......
我簡單的告訴她這個故事的經過與多少無孤的人葬送在這場災難中.....
我想告訴她的是,有很多人佼倖的逃過這一劫,是因為生活中一些小事的牽絆.....
有一個老闆因為兒子第一天開學所以他請假....
有一個人自認很倒楣因被差去買甜甜圈.......
有一個人因那一天穿了新鞋,要上樓時發現腳起水泡,於是他轉彎到藥局買OK繃.....
這些人,因生活中的牽絆而倖存活了下來.......
於是我告訴MOLLY,
生活中若發生任何小事絆住我們,我們都不須動怒與抱怨......
我們要心存感謝.....
她點點頭說她懂!!!
但她突然在我枕邊說起了另一場災難.....
她說:
媽咪,我記得上次什麼大海嘯時
我聽妳和爸爸說過,
有一個媽媽抱著兩個孩子被大海嘯沖走,
最後她選擇放棄那大的小孩,
妳跟爸爸也說,要是你們的話,你們也會一樣,
為什麼?
聽她這樣一問,我的心一糾,一陣難過在心底,
這不是好幾年前發生的事了嗎?
原來大人隨口聊天的話在小孩的心中是留下痕跡的,
她當時並沒有問我,
但,我想這一個她不懂的故事,在她心中必留下小小的陰影....
因為她也是那大的孩子!
我擁她入懷抱,我想了很久,
不知該如何告訴她這一個感人又痛心的故事....
我不知該如何讓她釋懷一個媽媽是如何的心痛放手那大的孩子?
我很認真的告訴她,
因為那個媽媽當一手各抱著一個小孩被大海嘯捲入,
當她決定放開一隻手,
是因為她知道唯有兩隻手用力抱住一個孩子才能讓小孩有活著的機會,
至於,她為何選擇放手那大的孩子而抱住僅兩歲的兒子?
我很認真的告訴她,
不是因為那媽媽不愛那大的孩子,
而是,
她知道那大的孩子必有智慧去求生,
她知道那大的孩子可能會聰明的抓住樹幹漂流,
她知道那大的孩子如果漂流到岸邊一定也會想辦法生存,
她知道那大的孩子如果得救一定會告訴別人他的家人是誰?
她知道那大的孩子....上帝必看顧....
.......
MOLLY說她聽懂了,她問我,那最後呢?那大的孩子有沒有找到媽媽?
我說:有!那大的孩子好勇敢,他被一個澳洲人救起後在醫院找到了媽媽,一家團圓!!
MOLLY開心的笑了,說:那大的孩子好棒呦!!!難怪妳也會選擇放棄我.......
........
妳有沒有因為不經意又不自覺的一句話或動作而傷害過小孩呢?
其實,很多小孩的傷害來是父母,
一個傷自尊的斥責,
一個動怒的巴掌,
一次無心的棄離,
甚至一個沒有說明的故事,
有的是無心之過,
有的是刻骨之痛,
有的是一輩子難以抹滅的傷痕,
感謝昨晚的分享讓我修復了MOLLY那大的孩子小小心靈的一個小小傷痕!

2007年中秋晚会
感想一:
今年是刚选举出来的第一届执委负责筹划活动,他们大部分是大二的同学。我看着他们忙碌而有系统的工作,而且很有学长学姐的成熟稳重,却又还带着大学生的天真和好玩的样子。去年,他们就像那些大一的学弟学妹,有点羞涩腼腆,可能对学长学姐有一些仰慕之情。大三的同学大概在忙,来得很少。两年前,他们没有学长学姐,还是大一的新生,才入学没有多久呢。
我从头到尾看着他们愉快又投入的参与各种活动,中间也被他们拉着参加了一些。这一晚的气氛很热闹也很温馨,跟去年、前年的感觉不同。每一年的节目都有一些特别的性格,就像他们每一个人,不只不同,而且一直在改变。
感想二:
两天前,俊贤问我是否想要在中文系的活动中唱歌。不知怎的,很想表演,就接下来了。临时临急的选歌很麻烦,没法子背歌词,又要配合中秋,没办法,只好选了《离人》和《小情歌》。7点抵达华裔馆,已有不少人了。活动很快就开始了,先是两个主持人的乱掰,然后是柯老师的致辞,接着,俊贤很灵巧的,用他独特的方式带动大家活络筋骨。也难为他了,竟然想得出中文系十招,佩服佩服。
感想三:
中秋晚會非常成功
你們能在這麼短的時間內順利舉辦
表示你們的團隊很有效率
我私底下問過一些大二的同學
他們都對你的個性, 辦事能力和領導統御讚譽有加
相信同學會在你的領導之下一定會欣欣向榮, 六畜興旺
加油 !!

当你在等待一个人的时候,时间好像变成了你最不听话的宠物,最大的敌人。你要它走得快些,它偏偏慢得像只乌龟。你恨不得它死了,可是它又真像一只乌龟,长命百岁似的。往往是你被这不起眼的家伙打败。直到你踏入棺材的那天它还是对你微笑着,对你作出胜利的手势。
当你在等待一个人的时候,你就好像发烧了似的。焦虑,不安,烦躁,懒洋洋的提不起劲,吃不好,睡不好,整个人仿佛被丢进烘烤炉。直到你烧退了,你也开始悲观,不抱任何希望了的时候,整个世界好像陷入冰川时代。你失望,因为你寄予太多期望。你痛苦,因为你太在乎。你伤心,因为你太用心。即使你绝望,也是因为你要逃避。而逃避,往往就是痛苦的根源。于是,你越痛苦,你越要逃避。你越逃避,你就越痛苦。

当你在等待一个人的时候,时间好像变成了你最不听话的宠物,最大的敌人。你要它走得快些,它偏偏慢得像只乌龟。你恨不得它死了,可是它又真像一只乌龟,长命百岁似的。往往是你被这不起眼的家伙打败。直到你踏入棺材的那天它还是对你微笑着,对你作出胜利的手势。
当你在等待一个人的时候,你就好像发烧了似的。焦虑,不安,烦躁,懒洋洋的提不起劲,吃不好,睡不好,整个人仿佛被丢进烘烤炉。直到你烧退了,你也开始悲观,不抱任何希望了的时候,整个世界好像陷入冰川时代。你失望,因为你寄予太多期望。你痛苦,因为你太在乎。你伤心,因为你太用心。即使你绝望,也是因为你要逃避。而逃避,往往就是痛苦的根源。于是,你越痛苦,你越要逃避。你越逃避,你就越痛苦。

友情主义
脑内构造元素:40%友+30%玩+15%爱+10%钱+5%欲
你非常重视友情,不懂得拒绝别人。愿意为朋友付出,诚恳且知恩图报。你的生活条件不错,而且较容易相信别人,容易被欺骗。
在你的脑内,玩和爱也是非常重要的两部分。你懂得生活的乐趣,不喜欢长时间独处,善于分享并且有自己的主见。同样,你对于钱和名利之类的也会有所渴望,虽然不会大到影响到你人生路线的地步,但是喜欢在这方面有所打算。
你是位对自己较刻薄、严格的人,对事务追求的欲望往往在达不到理想后,令自己失望无比。不过此日出生者与生具有牺牲小我完成大我的心胸和情怀,喜欢为别人带来喜讯、快乐、欢悦,鲜少与人树敌人际关系相当好,也因如此日积月累长久后,也能为自己带来欢乐与幸福的人生。

THE DONKEY
One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well.
The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do.
Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway; it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey.
He invited all his neighbors to come over and help him.
They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well.
At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly.
Then, to everyone ' s amazement he quieted down.
A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well. He was astonished at what he saw. With each shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing. He would shake it off and take a step up.
As the farmer's neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal,
he would shake it off and take a step up.Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and happily trotted off!
MORAL :
Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt.
The trick to getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up.
Each of our troubles is a steppingstone.
We can get out of the deepest wells just by not stopping, never giving up! Shake it off and take a step up.
Remember the five simple rules to be happy:
1. Free your heart from hatred - Forgive.
2. Free your mind from worries - Most never happen.
3. Live simply and appreciate what you have.
4. Give more.
5. " Expect less "

MAGIC #1
An Indian discovered that nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on the
computer which can be named as "CON". This is something pretty cool...and
unbelievable... At Microsoft the whole Team, couldn't answer why this
happened!
TRY IT NOW ,IT WILL NOT CREATE " CON " FOLDER
MAGIC #2
For those of you using Windows, do the following:
1.) Open an empty notepad file
2.) Type "Bush hid the facts" (without the quotes)
3.) Save it as whatever you want..
4.) Close it, and re-open it.
is it just a really weird bug? :-??
MAGIC #3
This is something pretty cool and neat...and unbelievable... At Microsoft
the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why this happened!
It was discovered by a Brazilian.. Try it out yourself...
Open Microsoft Word and type
=rand (200, 99)
And then press ENTER
then see the magic................................

【目送】 龍應台 (20070622)
華安上小學第一天,我和他手牽著手,穿過好幾條街,到維多利亞小學。九月初,家家戶戶院子裡的蘋果和梨樹都綴滿了拳頭大小的果子,枝枒因為負重而沈沈下垂,越出了樹籬,勾到過路行人的頭髮。
很多很多的孩子,在操場上等候上課的第一聲鈴響。小小的手,圈在爸爸的、媽媽的手心裡,怯怯的眼神,打量著周遭。他們是幼稚園的畢業生,但是他們還不知道一個定律:一件事情的畢業,永遠是另一件事情的開啟。
鈴聲一響,頓時人影錯雜,奔往不同方向,但是在那麼多穿梭紛亂的人群裡,我無比清楚地看著自己孩子的背影──就好像在一百個嬰兒同時哭聲大作時,你仍舊能夠準確聽出自己那一個的位置。華安背著一個五顏六色的書包往前走,但是他不斷地回頭;好像穿越一條無邊無際的時空長河,他的視線和我凝望的眼光隔空交會。我看著他瘦小的背影消失在門裡。
十六歲,他到美國作交換生一年。我送他到機場。告別時,照例擁抱,我的頭只能貼到他的胸口,好像抱住了長頸鹿的腳。他很明顯地在勉強忍受母親的深情。
他在長長的行列裡,等候護照檢驗;我就站在外面,用眼睛跟著他的背影一寸一寸往前挪。終於輪到他,在海關窗口停留片刻,然後拿回護照,閃入一扇門,倏乎不見。
我一直在等候,等候他消失前的回頭一瞥。但是他沒有,一次都沒有。
現在他二十一歲,上的大學,正好是我教課的大學。但即使是同路,他也不願搭我的車。即使同車,他戴上耳機──只有一個人能聽的音樂,是一扇緊閉的門。有時他在對街等候公車,我從高樓的窗口往下看:一個高高瘦瘦的青年,眼睛望向灰色的海;我只能想像,他的內在世界和我的一樣波濤深邃,但是,我進不去。一會兒公車來了,擋住了他的身影。車子開走,一條空蕩蕩的街,只立著一只郵筒。
我慢慢地、慢慢地瞭解到,所謂父女母子一場,只不過意味著,你和他的緣分就是今生今世不斷地在目送他的背影漸行漸遠。你站立在小路的這一端,看著他逐漸消失在小路轉彎的地方,而且,他用背影默默告訴你:不必追。
我慢慢地、慢慢地意識到,我的落寞,彷彿和另一個背影有關。
博士學位讀完之後,我回台灣教書。到大學報到第一天,父親用他那輛運送飼料的廉價小貨車長途送我。到了我才發覺,他沒開到大學正門口,而是停在側門的窄巷邊。卸下行李之後,他爬回車內,準備回去,明明啟動了引擎,卻又搖下車窗,頭伸出來說:
「女兒,爸爸覺得很對不起你,這種車子實在不是送大學教授的車子。」
我看著他的小貨車小心地倒車,然後噗噗駛出巷口,留下一團黑煙。直到車子轉彎看
不見了,我還站在那裡,一口皮箱旁。
每個禮拜到醫院去看他,是十幾年後的時光了。
推著他的輪椅散步,他的頭低垂到胸口。有一次,發現排泄物淋滿了他的褲腿,我蹲下來用自己的手帕幫他擦拭,裙子也沾上了糞便,但是我必須就這樣趕回台北上班。護士接過他的輪椅,我拎起皮包,看著輪椅的背影,在自動玻璃門前稍停,然後沒入門後。
我總是在暮色沉沉中奔向機場。
火葬場的爐門前,棺木是一只巨大而沈重的抽屜,緩緩往前滑行。
沒有想到可以站得那麼近,距離爐門也不過五公尺。雨絲被風吹斜,飄進長廊內。我掠開雨濕了前額的頭髮,深深、深深地凝望,希望記得這最後一次的目送。
我慢慢地、慢慢地了解到,所謂父女母子一場,只不過意味著,你和他的緣分就是今生今世不斷地在目送他的背影漸行漸遠。
你站立在小路的這一端,看著他逐漸消失在小路轉彎的地方,而且,他用背影默默告訴你:不必追。

An Interesting Article
“曾经有一位向佛的王子,但他禁不住情欲的诱惑,放不下感情的包裹,因为有一个很爱很爱他的女孩。”佛说,“有一天,他来到我面前问我该怎么做,我问他那个女子是不是真的很爱他,他说是的,很爱很爱,不管发生什么事都一样爱。”
“然后呢?”我问。
“然后?没有然后了。”佛叹了一口气。
“为什么?为什么没有然后?”我不信。
“然后,王子就彻底归依释门了啊。”佛看着我,说道。
“为什么?我不明白,不是有个很爱他的女孩吗?”
“爱?真的爱吗?那不是真爱啊,有多少世人懂得真爱啊?”佛语。
“为什么!!?”
“我告诉他,有一个方法可以证明女子对他的爱有多深,他去做了,结果,他很失望。”佛语。
“怎么做的?”我不解。
“用我的法力将他变成了一个女子。然后,爱他的女子见他已不再是以前那个英俊的王子,便含泪离开了他,而这个王子,也从此大彻大悟,因为她爱的是他的人,而不是他的心。”佛语。
“我懂了。”我说。
“所以,真正的爱是不管对方是什么人都去爱的才叫真爱。”佛语,“只要有真爱,又有什么是不可以的呢?地位,年龄,乃至性别,都不是重要的啊,重要的是真爱,爱他的人,更要爱他的心啊。
“你刚才说的王子是谁啊?”
“谁?”佛微微一笑,“现在世人都称他为观世音。”

Quotes that set me thinking....... deeply.
* He eventually asked for another chance for him to try to love me again. i refused, for our own gd. He wanted to be frens still, i refused, for my own gd.
* 早就劝你别吸烟,可是烟雾中的你是那么的美,叫我怎么劝得下口。
* 我害怕前面的路,但是一想到你,就有能力向前走了。
* 说好是一辈子就是一辈子,差一年一个月一天一个时辰都不行。
* We make love, but don't fall in love.
* 一个人要是真的变心了,你无论做什么他都不会在乎的了。为他再去伤心难过想去再挽回,除了自取其辱之外,你是得不到什么的。
* 剩下的只是过往的记忆与累月的习惯,少了热情的感情是否仍值得捉牢?

○ 有道理
【幽默】
一位夫人打電話給建築師,說每當火車經過時,她的睡床就會搖動。
“這簡直是無稽之談!”建築師回答說,“我來看看。”
建築師到達後,夫人建議他躺在床上,體會一下火車經過時的感覺。
建築師剛上床躺下,夫人的丈夫就回來了。他見此情形,便厲聲喝
問:“你躺在我妻子的床上幹什麼?”
建築師戰戰兢兢地回答:“我說是在等火車,你會相信嗎?”
【頓悟】
有些話是真的,卻聽上去很假;
有些話是假的,卻令人無庸置疑。
○引誘
【幽默】
英國紳士與法國女人同乘一個包廂,女人想引誘這個英國人,她脫衣躺下後就抱怨身上發冷。
先生把自己的被子給了她,她還是不停地說冷。
“我還能怎麼幫助你呢?”先生沮喪地問道。
“我小時候媽媽總是用自己的身體給我取暖。”
“小姐,這我就愛莫能助了。我總不能跳下火車去找你的媽媽吧?”
【頓悟】
善解風情的男人是好男人,
不解風情的男人更是好男人
○調羹
【幽默】
麥克走進餐館,點了一份湯,服務員馬上給他端了上來。
服務員剛走開,麥克就嚷嚷起來:“對不起,這湯我沒法喝。”
服務員重新給他上了一個湯,他還是說:“對不起,這湯我沒法喝。”
服務員只好叫來經理。
經理畢恭畢敬地朝麥克點點頭,說:“先生,
這道菜是本店最拿手的,深受顧客歡迎,難道您……”
“我是說,調羹在哪里呢?
【頓悟】
有錯就改,當然是件好事。
但我們常常卻改掉正確的,留下錯誤的,結果是錯上加錯。
穿錯
【幽默】
飯廳內,一個異常謙恭的人膽怯地碰了碰另一個顧客,那人正在穿一件大衣。
“對不起,請問您是不是皮埃爾先生?”
“不,我不是。”那人回答。
“啊,”他舒了一口氣,“那
我沒弄錯,我就是他,您穿了他的大衣。”
【頓悟】
要做到理直氣壯,並不是件容易的
事情。理直的人,往往低聲下氣;而理歪的人,卻是氣壯如牛。
回電
【幽默】
一個蘇格蘭人去倫敦,想順便探望一位老朋友,但卻忘了他的住址,於是給家父發了一份電報:“您知道托馬的住址嗎?速告!”
當天,他就收到一份加急回電:“知道。”
【頓悟】
當我們終於找到最正確的答案時
,卻發現它是最無用的。
○傷心故事
【幽默】
有三個人到紐約度假。他們
在一座高層賓館的第45層訂了一個套房。
一天晚上,大樓電梯出現故障,服務員
安排他們在大廳過夜。
他們商量後,決定徒步走回房間,並約定輪流說笑話、唱
歌和講故事,以減輕登樓的勞累。
笑話講了,歌也唱了,好不容易爬到第34層,
大家都感覺精疲力竭。
“好吧,彼德,你來講個幽默故事吧。”
彼德說:“
故事不長,卻令人傷心至極:我把房間的鑰匙忘在大廳了。”
【頓悟】
我們痛苦,所以
幽默;我們幽默,所以快樂。
【幽默】
一位夫人打電話給建築師,說每當火車經過時,她的睡床就會搖動。
“這簡直是無稽之談!”建築師回答說,“我來看看。”
建築師到達後,夫人建議他躺在床上,體會一下火車經過時的感覺。

【頓悟】
有些話是真的,卻聽上去很假;
有些話是假的,卻令人無庸置疑。
○引誘
【幽默】
英國紳士與法國女人同乘一個包廂,女人想引誘這個英國人,她脫衣躺下後就抱怨身上發冷。
先生把自己的被子給了她,她還是不停地說冷。
“我還能怎麼幫助你呢?”先生沮喪地問道。
“我小時候媽媽總是用自己的身體給我取暖。”
“小姐,這我就愛莫能助了。我總不能跳下火車去找你的媽媽吧?”
【頓悟】
善解風情的男人是好男人,
不解風情的男人更是好男人
○調羹
【幽默】
麥克走進餐館,點了一份湯,服務員馬上給他端了上來。
服務員剛走開,麥克就嚷嚷起來:“對不起,這湯我沒法喝。”
服務員重新給他上了一個湯,他還是說:“對不起,這湯我沒法喝。”
服務員只好叫來經理。
經理畢恭畢敬地朝麥克點點頭,說:“先生,
這道菜是本店最拿手的,深受顧客歡迎,難道您……”
“我是說,調羹在哪里呢?
【頓悟】
有錯就改,當然是件好事。
但我們常常卻改掉正確的,留下錯誤的,結果是錯上加錯。
穿錯
【幽默】
飯廳內,一個異常謙恭的人膽怯地碰了碰另一個顧客,那人正在穿一件大衣。
“對不起,請問您是不是皮埃爾先生?”
“不,我不是。”那人回答。
“啊,”他舒了一口氣,“那
我沒弄錯,我就是他,您穿了他的大衣。”
【頓悟】
要做到理直氣壯,並不是件容易的
事情。理直的人,往往低聲下氣;而理歪的人,卻是氣壯如牛。
回電
【幽默】
一個蘇格蘭人去倫敦,想順便探望一位老朋友,但卻忘了他的住址,於是給家父發了一份電報:“您知道托馬的住址嗎?速告!”
當天,他就收到一份加急回電:“知道。”
【頓悟】
當我們終於找到最正確的答案時
,卻發現它是最無用的。
○傷心故事
【幽默】
有三個人到紐約度假。他們
在一座高層賓館的第45層訂了一個套房。
一天晚上,大樓電梯出現故障,服務員
安排他們在大廳過夜。
他們商量後,決定徒步走回房間,並約定輪流說笑話、唱
歌和講故事,以減輕登樓的勞累。
笑話講了,歌也唱了,好不容易爬到第34層,
大家都感覺精疲力竭。
“好吧,彼德,你來講個幽默故事吧。”
彼德說:“
故事不長,卻令人傷心至極:我把房間的鑰匙忘在大廳了。”
【頓悟】
我們痛苦,所以
幽默;我們幽默,所以快樂。

母親的糖果
因為淘氣,我兒時常常受傷。當我哭叫著找母親的時候,母親總會遞給我一塊糖果,說:「吃塊糖就不疼了,別哭了!」我便會含著糖果跑跳著繼續去瘋玩了。大學畢業時,交往了兩年的女朋友跟別人走了,我陷入了頹喪的泥沼中難以自拔。我悲傷地對母親說:「如果還能有小時候的療傷糖果就好了…」一個周末的早上,我被電話鈴聲吵醒,是母親。她說她把午飯忘記在家裡了,讓我送到她上班的醫院去。按照母親說的,我到了醫院住院處3樓的外科病房。母親不在。我環視著滿屋不是缺胳膊就是少腿的病人正不知所措,一個女孩子告訴我,我母親留下話,讓我去4樓的416房間找她。 我注意到,這個女孩少了一條腿,我的心不禁怦動了一下:可惜了,這麼俊秀的一個女孩子。 4樓是燒傷科。找到416房間,母親又不在,而房間內一個個猙獰的面容看得我汗毛豎立。靠近窗口的一個滿臉燒傷傷疤的患者告訴我,我母親讓我到510房間找她…… 在510房間依然沒有看到母親。聽到我的問話,一個十來歲模樣,雙眼眼球都已經被摘除的小女孩童聲稚氣地告訴我:「叔叔,奶奶讓我告訴你,去走廊盡頭的那個倉庫找她…」 推開倉庫的門,母親正坐在裡面。驀然間,我明白了,母親是有意讓我去那些病房的。我真的很幸運了,我失去的只是一段欺騙我的情感而已,我還擁有健康的身體,還可以自由地行走! 許多問題都是可解的。只是很多時候,人們還在通往題解的路上,就先失去了希望。療傷的糖果不在身外,在我自己心中。

這是發生在中國的一個真實的故事
在國內某地,有一個女司機開著一輛滿載乘客的長途客車行馳在盤山公路上。山間公路上三名持槍歹徒居然盯上漂亮的女司機,強迫中巴停下,要帶女司機下車去「玩玩」。
女司機情急呼救,全車乘客噤若寒蟬。只有一中年瘦弱男子應聲奮起,卻被打傷在地。這位男子氣極,奮起大呼全車人制止暴行,卻無人響應,任憑女司機被拖至山林草叢。
半個時辰後,三歹徒與衣衫不整的女司機歸來回到車上。車又將行,女司機要被打傷流血的瘦弱男子下車。男子不肯,僵持起來。
" 喂,你下車吧,我的車不拉你!"中年男子急了,說:「你這人怎麼不講道理,我還救你呢,難道我還錯嗎?」「你救我?你救我什麼了?」女司機矢口否認,引得幾個乘客竊笑。
中年男子氣極,恨自已身無大俠之力!救人未救成,可也不該得此被驅逐下車的結果呀,他堅決不下。
「再說我買票了,我有權坐車!」女司機揚起臉無情地說:「不下車,我就不開。」沒想到的是,滿車剛才還對暴行熟視L睹的乘客們,卻如剛剛睡醒般,齊心協力地勸那男子下車:「你快下去吧,我們還有事呢,耽擱不起!」
幾位力大的乘客甚至想上前拖這中年男子下車。
三個歹徒咧著嘴笑,得意地笑了。其中有個黑皮無賴毫不知恥地說:「哥們把她玩恣了!」另外兩個歹徒也胡言亂語:「她是我對象,關你屁事!」一場爭吵,直到那男子的行李從車窗扔出,他隨後被推擠而下。
汽車又平穩地行駛在山路上,女司機掠了一下頭髮,按響了收音機。車快到山頂,拐過彎去就要下山了,車左側是劈山開的路,右側是百丈懸崖。汽車悄悄地加速了,女司機臉上十分平靜,雙手緊握著方向盤,眼睛淌出晶瑩的淚水。
一歹徒似乎覺察到了什麼,說:「慢點開,慢點開,你想幹什麼?"」女司機並不說話,車速越來越快。歹徒企圖撲上去搶方向盤,汽車卻像離弦的箭向懸崖衝去。
第二天,當地報紙報導:伏虎山區昨日發生慘禍,一中型巴士摔下山崖。車上司機和十三名乘客無一生還。半路被趕下車的中年人看到報紙哭了,誰也不知道他哭什麼,為什麼哭?
現在你知道他為什麼哭了嗎?若你身在當時的情境,你會不會也像那個中年人一樣挺身而出呢?
這才是人心,這才是正常的社會!
當我們用心對人時;有心人將以熱情回報妳;
希望我們都是用心的人;也是有心的人!

哈利波特大結局揭曉 哈利殲魔死去活來 榮恩娶妙麗
更新日期:2007/07/22 記者:【閻紀宇/綜合廿一日外電報導】
學教授石內卜其實是鄧不利多的忠實盟友,一直在幕後幫助哈利,後來也被佛地魔殺害。
在四處搜尋佛地魔分靈體的同時,哈利有了重大發現,原來要殲滅佛地魔必須取得三件「死神聖物」(Deathly Hallows):長老魔杖、復活聖石與隱形斗篷。哈利原本就擁有隱形斗篷與復活聖石,但長老魔杖在鄧不利多死後被佛地魔奪走,這根魔杖能夠讓巫師主人在對決時戰無不勝。
哈利憑三聖物 滅佛地魔
最後對決從活米村的尖叫屋展開,哈利得知自身就是佛地魔最後一個分靈體,於是他壯烈犧牲自己,讓佛地魔殺死他。但後來哈利又死而復生,與佛地魔決一死戰,運用自己才是長老魔杖真實主人的身分,讓佛地魔發出索命咒之後作法自斃,惡貫滿盈的一生畫下句點。
而本書的尾聲是,十九年後(二○一七年)九月的某一天,哈利、榮恩與妙麗又在王十字車站碰面。哈利與榮恩的妹妹金妮么妹結婚,生了兩個兒子和一個女兒。榮恩與妙麗締結良緣,也生了一兒一女。他們在九又四分之三月台上為孩子送行,霍格華茲學院的新學期即將開始。

兒子吼她 沈春華把眼淚寫進親子書
2007/07/23 記者:【朱梅芳/台北報導】
中視當家主播沈春華今與全家人出發至峇里島度假5天,返台後迎接8月4日全新改版的中天「沈春華Life show」;另她執筆醞釀4年的親子書,終於寫完確定8月出版。書中共有40篇親子故事,其中一篇「不可能的眼淚」,描述和兒子安卓看電影的趣事:「去年夏天,我和他一起去看『不可能的任務Ⅲ』,因一句話,這兩小時的動作驚悚電影,母子倆竟是手握著手,淚如雨下看完。」
沈春華說,電影一開場無預警的震撼聲響,讓她嚇一大跳,脫口大叫:「啊!」兒子安卓的反應竟是:「妳叫什麼啊!」讓她當場落淚,非常受傷;兒子驚覺犯錯,緊抓著她的手道歉:「媽媽,對不起,我無心的,不是那個意思。」
她說,兒子很低調,不讓人知道媽媽是主播,「我為了他,出門戴眼鏡,穿牛仔褲,我不愛看好萊塢動作片,工作累,假日不休息,特別陪他去看電影,即使當下他覺得我很丟臉,但有教養的孩子,必須懂得控制情緒,更要體貼父母。」

海海鸥天天到超商偷一包洋芋片 其他顧客幫牠付錢
2007/07/23 09:30 記者:記者李健光/編譯
你有餵食海鷗的經驗嗎?英國亞伯丁市最近出現一隻海鷗,牠不需要等待民眾餵食,因為這隻海鷗會自己進去便利商店去偷洋芋片來當點心吃,整個順手牽羊的過程,都被當地居民給拍攝下來。
歡迎光臨「人客」來了!ㄟ?有沒有搞錯?居然是一隻海鷗!
大搖大擺、光天化日之下,這隻海鷗就這樣逛進英國亞伯丁市的一家便利商店,牠二話不說,招呼也都沒打,就叼走架上的洋芋片。店員菲爾麥考指出,這隻海鷗最近常來光顧。
菲爾麥考說:「大約3周前,我看見這海鷗進來,查看一下,發現牠居然叼走一整包洋芋片,之後每天都來,每天都叼走一包洋芋片。」
雖然海鷗每次都沒付錢,不過由於附近民眾都愛看海鷗偷洋芋片的這齣表演,因此大家開始輪流為海鷗付錢,同時還為這隻海鷗取名叫做「山姆」。

同学写道:
我心里流着泪,刺刺的针一点一点往心里面钻, 随不是巨痛,但每一次的针是越来越痛。。
我要变得坚强一点,勇敢一点,学习着对自己好一些,爱他少一些。
我不开心,我象是超级会演戏的演员
我一直都在演戏。。演一部骗人的戏, 一部让我的心慢慢死掉的戏。只为了成全你。
我要快乐,我要能睡得安稳。
读了后,我只想给她一句话:
离开他吧!
(戏如人生,人生如戏。千万别为了成全任何人,而牺牲掉自己的幸福。爱你的人,绝对不会舍得让你流泪。给对的人机会,是追求幸福;给错的人机会,那是浪费时间。记得,幸福是掌握在自己的手上。珍惜你的眼泪,把它留给真真值得的人吧。为情而苦,何苦呢?到不如,擦干眼泪,学我大笑三声,笑看人生!)

金磚四國
金磚四國是指巴西、俄羅斯、印度及中國四個有希望在幾十年內取代六國工業集團[1]成為世界最大經濟體的國家。[2]這個簡稱來自這四國國名的開頭英文字母BRIC(Brazil, Russia, India, China)的諧音BRICK(意指「磚頭」)。一般認為,這個概念最先是由一份高盛投資銀行的研究報告提出的,從而被廣泛討論。這份2003年的報告,其主要觀點是金磚四國的經濟發展迅速,在2050年將超越現在世界上大多數最富有的國家。另外,金磚四國的概念,有時也用來定義謠傳中的這四國在2002年所簽署的關於貿易與合作的協定。實際上,由於高盛該份研究報告被廣為接受,金磚四國的概念被廣泛的用來定義這四個國家所組成的一個市場,甚至更一般的用來定義所有新興的工業國家。

我是小丑魚
基本習性→擁有小丑魚特質的人是很難靜下來的,總是一副忙東忙西的樣子。被週遭的人一讚美就馬上得意起來是小丑魚的本性。另外,他們瞻前不顧後的馬虎態度,很容易招致「螳螂捕蟬,黃雀在後」的災難。他們最喜歡到眾人集聚的熱鬧場所。
優缺點→對於新奇的事物頗感興趣,能積極地自我充實是小丑魚的優點,而自己所習得的知識也會毫不吝嗇地教給別人;缺點是容易輕率的採取行動,過於輕率地行動必將招致不良的後果。
愛情觀→很會耍寶的小丑魚,是眾人眼中最好相處的人物,因此大部分的異性都會覺得和他相處一點壓力都沒有。不過異性緣極佳的他,卻意外的專情呢!
速配職業→若能將與生俱來的感性發揮於工作上,必能活躍於職場上,例如設計師,可說是他們天生的職業。此外,他們喜歡明朗熱鬧的環境,注重感性的發揮。
◎適用的釣餌→就算知道對方只是在拍馬屁,也無法抗拒別人的讚美。若對他們說:「你可以做得更好的﹗」時,他們會變得更加努力。此外,能夠詳細指示下一個步驟的話,他們就能馬上行動。

Some Nice Quotes to share with everyone:
Never explain yourself to any one.
Because the person who likes you doesn't need it,
and the person who dislikes you won't believe it.
When you keep saying you are busy,
then you are never free.
When you keep saying you have no time,
then you will never have time.
When you keep saying that you will do it tomorrow,
then your tomorrow will never come.
Time is like a river.
You cannot touch the same water twice,
because the flow that has passed will never pass again.
Enjoy every moment of life...
Don't make promise when you are in joy.
Don't reply when you are sad.
Don't make decision when you are angry.
Think twice...,Act Wise.
When we wake up in the morning, we have two simple choices.
Go back to sleep and dream,
or wake up and chase those dreams.
Don't write your name on sand, waves will wash it away.
Don't write your name in sky, wind may blow it away.
Write your name in hearts of people you come in touch with.
That's where it will stay.
Never explain yourself to any one.
Because the person who likes you doesn't need it,
and the person who dislikes you won't believe it.
When you keep saying you are busy,
then you are never free.
When you keep saying you have no time,
then you will never have time.
When you keep saying that you will do it tomorrow,
then your tomorrow will never come.
Time is like a river.
You cannot touch the same water twice,
because the flow that has passed will never pass again.
Enjoy every moment of life...
Don't make promise when you are in joy.
Don't reply when you are sad.
Don't make decision when you are angry.
Think twice...,Act Wise.
When we wake up in the morning, we have two simple choices.
Go back to sleep and dream,
or wake up and chase those dreams.
Don't write your name on sand, waves will wash it away.
Don't write your name in sky, wind may blow it away.
Write your name in hearts of people you come in touch with.
That's where it will stay.
AN ATHEIST IN THE WOODS
An atheist was walking through the woods.
"What majestic trees"!
"What powerful rivers"!
"What beautiful animals"!
He said to himself.
As he was walking alongside the river, he heard a rustling in the bushes
behind him. He turned to look. He saw a 7-foot grizzly charge towards him.
He ran as fast as he could up the path. He looked over his shoulder saw that
the bear was closing in on him.
He looked over his shoulder again, the bear was even closer. He tripped fell
on the ground. He rolled over to pick himself up but saw that the bear was
right on top of him, reaching for him with his left paw raising his right
paw to strike him. At that instant the Atheist cried out, "Oh my God!"
Time Stopped.
The bear froze.
The forest was silent.
As a bright light shone upon the man, a voice came out of the sky. "You
deny my existence for all these years, teach others I don't exist and even
credit creation to cosmic accident." "Do you expect me to help you out of
this predicament? Am I to count you as a believer"?
The atheist looked directly into the light, "It would be hypocritical of me
to suddenly ask You to treat me as a Christian now, but perhaps You could
make the BEAR a Christian"?
"Very Well," said the voice.
The light went out. The sounds of the forest resumed. And the bear dropped
his right paw, brought both paws together, bowed his head spoke:
"Lord bless this food, which I am about to receive from thy bounty through
Christ our Lord, Amen."
LOL :))

端午節的由來與典故
農曆五月五日是端午節,和春節、中秋並列為最重要的三個節慶。
端午節時值夏季,正是疾病開始流行的季節,因此端午節的由來, 可追溯為驅邪避惡,以求身心的平安,後來加入愛國詩人屈原的傳說,更增添了端午節的重要性。
端午節最令人期盼的活動便是划龍舟,台灣各地的主要河川在當天都會舉行盛大的龍舟競賽,選手們隨著隆隆的鼓聲,奮力向前划,在精彩激烈的賽程中,這傳統的習俗得以不斷的延續。
為了驅除疾厄,端午節時可見住家門口都掛菖蒲和艾草,以及「鍾馗」 的畫像,成人飲雄黃酒,並讓小孩身配香包,這些物品據說都有避邪,保平安的作用。而台灣的「打午時水」的風俗,亦即汲取端午節中午的井水,據說有治病的療效,此外,若能在正午時將雞蛋直立起來,表示來年會有好運道。
端午節最為人熟知的食品便是粽子,這個原本富有紀念意義的食品,在中國人的巧手製作下,已成為具各種變化,且隨時都能嚐到的美食了。端午節可說是現存的重要節慶中,歷史最悠久的。由現代的眼光看來,祖先對端午節的看法確有其獨到之處:在這初夏蟲疫滋生之際,以端午節提醒大家做好保健的工作。菖蒲、艾草及雄黃酒固然是傳統避疫保健的方式,現代人應尋求更進步的方式進行保健活動,延續先人的智慧。
端午節是中國三大重要傳統節慶之一,又稱做“端午”、“端陽”、“重 五”,相傳在戰國時代,屈原「以忠被讒,見疏於懷王,投汨羅江以死」,後人便在五月五日繫粽子投江以弔祭他,感懷屈原的忠誠。故事流傳至今,屈原的冤屈似乎已遭世人的遺忘,反而在每年農曆五月初五端午佳節時,有賽龍舟、掛艾草、飲雄黃酒、吃粽子等習俗的傳承,而粽子也變成約定俗成的應節食物。

--- 黑白老鼠 ---
這個故事比喻的真是棒!
有一個人在森林中漫遊的時候,突然遇見了一隻飢餓的老虎,老虎大吼一聲就撲了上來。他立刻用生平最大的力氣和最快的速度逃開,但是老虎緊追不捨,他一直跑一直跑一直跑,最後被老虎逼入了斷崖邊上。站在懸崖邊上,他想: 「與其被老虎捉到,活活被咬、肢解,還不如跳入懸崖,說不定還有一線生機。」
他縱身跳入懸崖,非常幸運的卡在一棵樹上,那是長在斷崖邊的梅樹,樹上結滿了梅子。
正在慶幸的時候,他聽到斷崖深處傳來巨大的吼聲,往崖底望去,原來有一只兇猛的獅子正抬頭看著他,獅子的聲音使他心顫,但轉念一想: 「獅子與老虎是相同的猛獸,被甚麼吃掉,都是一樣的。」
當他一放下心, 又聽見了一陣聲音,仔細一看,一黑一白的兩隻老鼠,正用力地咬著梅樹的樹幹。他先是一陣驚慌,立刻又放心了, 他想:「被老鼠咬斷樹幹跌死,總比被獅子咬好。」
情緒平復下來後,他感到肚子有點餓,看到梅子長得正好,就採了一些吃起來。 他覺得一輩子從沒吃過那麼好吃的梅子,找到一個三角形樹丫休息,他想著: 「既然遲早都要死,不如在死前好好睡上一覺吧!」
他在樹上沉沉的睡去了。睡醒之後,他發現黑白老鼠不見了,老虎、獅子也不見了。他順著樹枝, 小心翼翼的攀上懸崖,終於脫離險境。
原來就在他睡著的時候,飢餓的老虎按捺不住,終於大吼一聲, 跳下懸崖。黑白老鼠聽到老虎的吼聲,驚慌逃走了。跳下懸崖的老虎與崖下的獅子展開激烈的打鬥,雙雙負傷逃走了。
由我們誕生那一刻開始,苦難.就像飢餓的老虎一直追趕著我們, 死亡,就像一頭兇猛的獅子,一直在懸崖的盡頭等待,白天和黑夜的交替,就像黑白老鼠,不停地正用力咬著我們暫時棲身的生活之樹, 總有一天我們會落入獅子的口中。
既然知道了生命中最壞的情景是死亡,唯一的路,就是安然地享受樹上甜美的果子,然後安心地睡覺,只有存著這樣單純的心、少慾望、多一點赤子之心。
如果剛才你和另一半或是和家人為了芝麻綠豆的事鬧翻了,現在頭頂還在生煙的話,請你看看那晴朗的天空和那飄渺的白雲,其實你又錯過了美好的一天呀 !
有些朋友雖然不常聯絡,卻偶爾寄個E-mail 、也許是一些笑話、溫馨小品,或是小遊戲給你,這表示他一直在關心著你,他將你放在心裡,也珍惜彼此的友誼。 因此,要時時心存好意! 腳走好路!身行好事,惜緣種福 ...... 。

現代人每天都生活在被恐嚇之中。電視廣告每天都在警告:
「你長得太胖了!」
「你在床上的表現還不夠好!」
「你吃的油裡頭膽固醇太多了!」
「你喝的水中有很多細菌」,搞得每個人都緊張兮兮。
與過去的壓力來源比起來,現代人焦慮的常常是一種?無形、抽象的,甚至是想像出的危險。
如何解決現代焦慮?
要解決現代人的煩惱、焦慮,需要改變我們面對壓力的方式。
1、認識壓力公式 鄭石岩教授在多年的諮商經驗中發現,人的壓力,可以用一個公式表現,壓力= 負載/自我能力。
負載等於是卡車上所載的東西,自我功能就好像這部卡車的承載能力。 如果上面負載的東西並沒有增加,可是你現在很難過,這就表示有幾個可能, 一是你的自我功能減弱了,一是你在上面加了太多別的東西、太多垃圾。 例如,在辦公室跟同事處不好,回家後跟家人處不好,這些壓力、這些情緒,全 都加到工作上去,
就變成垃圾負載。這些衝突、情緒, 其實跟你的工作並沒有關係,但都全部被 加到你的工作裡面去。
2、減輕垃圾負載 對於這些人來講,鄭石岩教授並不主張馬上把他們原來的主題負載減少,要減少 的是他們的垃圾負載。
根據這個壓力公式來分析,鄭石岩教授為那位女主管開了三個處方。 第一個處方是運動。 因為運動可以刺激腦下垂體分泌腦內啡,使人的心情變好。 第二個處方是儘量表現出開心的樣子。 鄭石岩告訴那位女主管每天進辦公室前,就深深吸一口氣,裝一裝,假裝高興, 感覺自己的胸口鬆開,把眉毛揚一揚,很高興,振作起來,再走進辦公室,並且要記得 跟人打招呼。鄭石岩解釋,一旦你經常這樣作,行為影響情緒,人真得會變得比較快樂 。
第三樣處方是笑。 因為笑的時候可以產生內臟按摩。而且笑的時候通常都會深呼吸,也會刺激身體 產生令人舒服、愉快的分泌物。

Your number is: 6
The characteristics of #6 are: Responsibility, protection, nurturing, community, balance, sympathy.
The expression or destiny for #6:
The number 6 Expression provides you a truly outstanding sense of responsibility, love, and balance. The 6 is helpful and ever conscientious, making you quite capable of rectifying and balancing any sort of inharmonious situation. You are a person very much inclined to give help and comfort to those in need. You have a natural penchant for working with the old, the young, the sick, or the underprivileged. Although you may have considerable creative and artistic talents, the chances are that you will devote yourself to an occupation that shows concern for the betterment of the community.
The positive side of the number 6 suggests that you are very loving, friendly, and appreciative of others. You have a depth of understanding that produces much sympathetic, kindness, and generosity. The qualities of the 6 make the finest and most concerned parent and one often deeply involved in domestic activities. Openness and honesty is apparent in your approach to all relationships.
If there is an excess of the number 6 in your makeup, you may exhibit some of the negative traits associated with this number. There may be a tendency for you to be too exacting and demanding of yourself. In this regard, you may at times sacrifice yourself (or your loved ones) for the welfare of others. In some cases, the over zealous 6 has difficulty distinguishing helping from interfering. You may have difficulty expressing your own individuality, because of involvement with responsibilities and causes. Like all with the Expression of the number 6, it's quite likely that you worry much too much.
Your Soul Urge number is: 9
A Soul Urge number of 9 means:
With a 9 Soul Urge, you want to give to others, usually in a humanitarian or philanthropic manner. You are highly motivated to give friendship, affection and love. And you are generous in giving of your knowledge and experience. You have very sharing urges, and you are likely to have a great deal to share. Your concern for others makes you a very sympathetic and generous person with a sensitive and compassionate nature.
You are able to view life in very broad and intuitive terms. You often express high ideals and an inspirational approach to life. If you are able to fully realize the potential of your motivation, you will be a very self-sacrificing person who is able to give freely without being concerned about any return or reward.
As with all human beings, you are prone to sometimes express the negative attitudes inherent to your Soul Urges. You may become too sensitive and tend to express emotions strongly at times. There can be significant conflict between higher aims and personal ambitions. You may resent the idea of giving all of the time and, in fact, if there is too much 9 energy in your nature you may reject the idea. You may often be disappointed in the lack of perfection in yourself and others.
Your Inner Dream number is: 6
An Inner Dream number of 6 means: You dream of guiding and fostering the perfect family in the perfect home. You crave the devotion from offspring and a loving spouse. You picture yourself in the center of a successful domestic unit.

每次在考试其间,我总会胡思乱想。今天,趁着心烦意乱,读不下书时,上来写写东西。
在结束前一段感情后,我开始把爱情看的很淡,许多曾经追求过的梦想,如今都觉得如此的幼稚可笑。
过去两年,我身边最重要的三个人,陆续地走了两个。
一个陪伴了我 19 年, 一个陪伴了我2年。
前者教会了我豁达的人生观,使我心灵富裕。
后者让我看清了自私的丑陋,让我遍体鳞伤。
对于两者,我都付出了爱。
他们也都用他们的方式来爱我,我知道。
没有怨言、没有憎恨, 只有一抹解不开的忧愁和不舍。
忧愁是对于人世间的感慨;
不舍是对自己的同情。
曾有人问我说,我和我的ex在一起都超过2年了,为什么还会分开?
我说他欺骗了我,并且喜欢上了别人。
这朋友说那一定是你的不对,他才会这样。
我笑笑的摇摇头,淡淡地回答他: “对,是我不够好,不能满足他。”
的确,怎能怪你犯了错,是我给你自由过了火。
接着,这位朋友又不识像的继续问:
“你会恨他吗?”
我停顿了几秒,只是一味的傻笑。(无言)
