四川大地震后の震撼

人生
不必太执著

一切
皆已冥冥中注定

既来之，则安之。。。

存在的意义

如果那一样东西的存在不能帮到你的话，那么是时候把它扔了。-- 妙手仁心 III

对人亦能如此吗？

Earth Day地球日

你知道吗？我们的地球生病了，很需要我们无微不至与无私的照顾。你肯付出吗？

其实，有心就能迎刃而解， 你只须：

（1）少用塑胶袋
我们的生活中似乎少不了它。如果你刻意安排，改用环保袋，就会发现原来单单你一个人就少用了许多塑胶袋。同时尽量把一袋的垃圾塞得满满的，就能够确保不滥用塑胶袋。

（2）跟保丽龙包装盒/泡沫塑料(styrofoam)说“No!”
原来这东西一点都不环保。人类制造了它，却又不能将它分解。所以要尽可能远离它。打包食物的时候，请自备空盒，杯葛那些使用保丽龙包装盒的小贩。

（3）节省能源
地球逐渐地暖化，气候的影响甚大。四季不像四季，台风如今提早报到，我们虽在热带，但几乎每天都下雨。所以，别滥用随手可得的能源。少用冷气，虽然我的“阿宁”耐不了热，但我尽可能不开冷气，转用电风扇。

还有，“阿宁”他周末已减少驾车，改用地铁或巴士。一来可环保，尽量不增加在空气中的一氧化碳，二来可省钱，汽油现在超贵。

（4）3Rs -- Reuse, Reduce, Recycle
我国所做的环保工作的确还不够，这也导致人民对再循环这个概念一点都不在乎。超市现在所实行的每个月的第一个星期三“自备购物袋”日，其实是蛮笨的。一个月三十天只实行那么一天能有什么效用呢？何不干脆每个星期三都有，或许人民就能够养成习惯。

要不然你就坚持点，把环保袋放在车内，或出门时随手都带个环保袋。我肯定已经做了。与此同时，在家里也开始把垃圾分类。将可循环的物品，如，宝瓶罐、塑胶盒（即用即丢的）、塑胶瓶瓶罐罐、玻璃、铁、等等，都分出来。丢弃的时候，正确的投入所分类的大垃圾箱里。

其实环保行为/工作不止以上几点而已，你也别小看一个人的能力。我那微薄的绵力，也许可救了一棵树，或防止一条河流的污染。所以呢，拯救地球就由我/你开始吧！就从今天起！

用一生说“我爱你”

与你分享一封转发的电邮。。。唔。。。蛮有意思的。。。

5岁的时候，我说我爱你。
你歪着脑袋，眨着水晶般的大眼睛，
疑惑地问我：“什么意思?"

15岁的时候，我说我爱你，
你的脸红得像火烧云，头深深地低着，
摆弄著衣襟，你好像在笑。

20岁的时候，我说我爱你，
你把头靠在我的肩上，紧紧地挽住我的手臂，
像是下一秒我就要消失一样。

25岁的时候，我说我爱你，
你把早餐放在桌上，跑过来刮了一下我的鼻子说：
“知道了!懒虫，该起床了！”

30岁的时候，我说我爱你，
你笑着说：“你呀！要是真的爱我，就别下了班到处跑，
还有，别再忘了我叫你买的菜！”

40岁的时候，我说我爱你，
你边收拾碗筷边无表情的嘟囔着：
“行了，行了，快去给孩子复习功课去吧！”

50岁的时候，我说我爱你，
你打着毛线头也不抬：“真的？ 你心里是不是巴不得我早点儿死掉。”
然后就咯咯咯地笑个不停

60岁的时候，我说我爱你，
你笑着捶了我一拳： "死老头子!孙子都这么大了，还贫嘴！

70岁的时候，我们坐在摇椅上，
戴着老花镜， 欣赏着50年前我给你的情书，
我们已经布满皱纹的手又握在了一起，
那时侯我说我爱你， 你深情地望着我，
其实你那已经皱纹满面的脸仍是那么美丽……
炉子上的开水咕嘟咕嘟地冒烟, 温馨的暖意充满了整个屋子........ ......

80岁的时候，你说你爱我。
我什么也没说，因为我流泪了，
但是那是我人生最最快乐的日子，
因为你终于说出了那句“我--爱--你"。

看到这我想起了我的爸爸和妈妈.
周围的世界是浮动不安的,但依然有爱真切的存在.
爱象一个圈,起点是炙热,澎湃的......后来琐碎让我们有时忘记了爱,有的人继续下去了,有的人放弃了继续的人在达到圈的终点时,他们将重拾最初的那份爱,只是它变的更广阔,更醇浓......

相信爱情, 最幸福的信仰!!!

那股莫名其妙的感觉

“针打得怎么样了？”干孩子的娘问。

“昨天刚开始打。很痛，也很恐怖。”我述说着。

“不要看就没事。”

“我都快要窒息了，怎么可能去看呢？”

其实那种恐惧的感觉何止窒息了得。心脏似乎快冲出来，打紧得很，身上所有的神经与细胞都提高了戒备，血压指数肯定往上直飙，大脑主栖系统响着警急讯号。。。那种感觉太莫名其妙了。

我相信我的恐惧症并非极端，因还能在我的控制下，不敢去想象那种发狂似的极端，想必将会变成另一个人。其实我也有惧高症，面临和地面有一定的距离时，亦会有窒息的恐惧感，同时双腿开始不属于你的。但至少本身能够克服，要不然怎么去爬山、怎么玩过山车？我还想要尝试绑紧跳、走悉尼海港大桥的bridgeclimb、走澳门塔的空中漫步、参观美国大峡谷的天空走廊，并踩上那聂人的玻璃人行桥。哇，好期待 :P！

我已自我催眠了1年多，好不容易去年鼓起勇气迈出了第一步，做了第一个试验。那时的我简直是直处于“蛮张”状态，mood swing得好厉害，根本就是自杀似的。虽然有了经验，那份恐惧感始终无法消除。这一两天的mood swing也很厉害，好痛苦。

哎呀，不要再去想了啦。要加油，要勇敢一点。。。要。。。要。。。我的妈呀。。。

一种米养百种人

Our neighbouring country just had had their General Election on last Saturday, 03rd March 2008. The big hooha is although the ruling party Barisan Nasional (BN) had won, but in reality, they had lost.

It all boils down to complacency and taking things for granted. Of course, how can politics be so simple and clean? Well, it is not my intention to touch on polictical issues here. After reading all the news, it just strikes my mind it is good to be part of the red dot.

Where on earth can you find another place that sees existence of multi-racism, multi-religion? Not that I know of, but correct me if I am wrong though. For our neighbour, Chinese and Indians are not given equal status, at all levels, including education. Couple with the clash with the Indian community right before the GE, do you think BN still has the chance to return triumphantly? I doubt so.

What really sickens me is the insolent remarks made by their "infamous" ex-premier Dr M. God, he is either senile or he loses a screw somewhere up there. To think they are in the same party, aren't they all the more should support one another, for good and for worst??? Incredulous!!

A friend of mine who has made his base in HK, rattled off list of complaints to me weeks ago. His job requires him to fly pretty frequently, so he presumably and with pomposity, thinks he has seen the BIG W-I-D-E world. He screamed into my ears (no joke) why this why that, China is so big, Singaporeans are shallow minded, blah blah blah.....Sorry, but I really do not, and could not be bothered to, remember his exact words. What I do not comprehend is: if he has seen the world, where did all these complaints stem from???

C'mon, we are not born equal, how to expect each and every one of us to have the same perspective on each matter? There are people out there who can't barely bring home a proper meal and know not what tomorrow holds for them, and you want them to think with a bigger heart? You must be joking!

We are blessed as we are able to see the various parts of the world, but that does not equate us to have a louder voice. If we are wise enough, count our lucky stars. And, if we are wiser, emulate the goodness/excellence of others and take not the dregs of the worst.

Complacency kills the wisdom. If it is a lesson to be learnt, so be it. Take it in your stride and move on. Stop being such a pompous pig, and just shut up.

理直氣和

理直氣和
撰文／李焯芬

故事發生在一個餐廳裡。

「小姐！你過來！你過來！」一位顧客高聲叫嚷，指着面前的杯子，一臉冰霜地說，「看看！你們的牛奶是壞的，把我一杯紅茶都糟蹋了

「真對不起！」服務員笑着道歉，「我馬上給你換一杯。」

新紅茶很快就準備好了，碟邊與前一杯一樣，放着新鮮的檸檬和牛奶。服務員輕輕放在顧客面前，又輕聲地說：「我是不是也能建議你：如果放檸檬，就不要加牛奶，因為有時候檸檬酸會造成牛奶結塊。」

顧客的臉紅了起來，匆匆地喝完茶便走了。

有人笑問服務員：「明明是他土，你怎麼不直說呢？他那麼粗魯地叫你，你怎麼不還以一點顏色？」

「正因為他粗魯，所以才要用婉轉的方法應付。正因為道理一說就明白，所以用不着大聲。」服務員說：「理不直的人，才需要靠氣壯來壓人。理直的人，則可以用氣和來解決問題和多交朋友。」

人們常說「理直氣壯」，卻往往忽視了「理直氣和」的好處。有理不在聲大；世間許多問題，也只有在心平氣和的情形才好解決。

Leap of Thoughts

Today, de day of the leap year or intercalary year, 29th of February, 2008.

Weird, isn't it? It is pretty interesting that TODAY only exists for every 4 years, and what if you were born on this very day? You only get to celebrate it every 4 years! And, what if your wedding anniversary falls on TODAY? I tell you, the husband will love it coz he has every excuse to forget it every year. What a juxtaposition!

So, would any one be crazy enough to do anything crazy or commemorative on this very day?

There is nothing special about TODAY but somehow I think I need to pen something, coz the next time you see 29th February, it will be another good 4 years later. Who knows by then, where I shall be. Perhaps if God Almighty permits, there will be pattering of little feet at my humble abode :). Yeah, who knows.....

I really wonder, is there any one who specially celebrates TODAY?

p/s. My sincere apologies if you have no idea what you are reading about. Me too, have no inkling what I am thinking, or writing about either....ごめんなさいね...

月牙湾

敦煌古墓的沙粒
带着我们的际遇
我从半路看回去
这秦关漫漫好蜿踞

梦想穿过了西域
包含了多少的缠意
爱情像一本游记
我会找寻它的密语
看..月牙湾下的泪光
在丝路之上被遗忘

是谁的心啊孤单的留下
他还好吗我多想爱他
那永恒的泪那一句话
也许可能蒸发

是谁的爱啊又为谁降下
轻声呼唤就让我融化
那一滴雨水演化成我翅膀
向着我爱的人追吧

Yielding to Temptation

01st December 2007. I started my shopping on this day (er, for Christmas -- this is a good excuse ne :P) and I'm telling you, you can just feel the festive moods are in the air :)!

Aiyo, can you imagine all the Christmas decorations at Orchard Road were up around November and you can see those shopping malls ain't going to lag behind. Their Christmas trees and those bling bling decors were up as well! Christmas carols are also blasting all over places! Incredible! Now with 23 more days to go, better start planning, if you got parties to go.

Now, with sales and more sales, and those Christmasy gorgeous goodies to go for, now what should we gals do? I say let's throw caution to the wind and do what American writer, Mark Twain said: "I deal with temption by yielding to it." Hmm...and I thought Oscar Wilde said that.

Anyway, am looking forward to the holidays coz it will be some long holidays for me. How I wish I've made plans to have a white Christmas. The nearest I had had was 7 years ago at HK. Too bad, no snow. Perhaps must plan one for next year.

Now, I must go and hang up the Christmas wreath on my door :).

爱，永恒的活力

正当我忙得天昏地暗的时候，朋友转发了这份“爱，永恒的活力”。一时兴起，请看官们来评阅我的“宏观”吧！

爱情这玩意，没有的时候拼命想，有的时候又觉得很烦。那它到底应该是什么呢？

其实爱情犹如一枚钱币，是两面的，没有所谓的对或错，没有所谓的应不应该。人本来就是七情六欲的构造，爱到天翻地覆、海枯石烂时，一切是美好的，是乌托邦的。可是很多人也许忘了，再轰轰烈烈的爱情也需要你的用心与灌溉。没有用心、爱心的播种与耕耘，哪能享有丰裕的丰收？这个道理是亘古不变的。

当你爱一个人的时候，也希望对方也爱你。若不爱，也无所谓，对我而言。因为你绝对有权利去爱人。不奢望对方的回馈，是因为你无需去对他有任何要求。我伟大？应该不是吧。爱应该是无任何方程式的。爱的条件不是你爱他一点，而他爱你多一点。应该是互动的，而不是你永远都是处于受的一方。

朋友问我：能不能同时爱2个人？答案：因人而异吧！人，本来就是自私的，试问哪有这么多博爱的人？2年前曾阅读过这篇文章--“爱的条件”， 作者的见解引起了我的共鸣，犹记得亦倍感震撼。希望看官们读了也会有同感。

爱，始终都是一个谜，人永远对感情最敏感。若要理出个头绪来，或许是给爱情写上了休止符。你不去理睬它，或许爱情就是很简单的东西。

日不落

最近发现新大陆，迷上了蔡依林的“日不落”(MV)，亦轻快亦活泼，朗朗上口的旋律，好愉快的感觉。

听歌往往是心情的写照，你，同意吗？

Will You Dare to Find New Ways?

One people, one nation, one Singapore
That's the way that we'll be, forever more
Every creed and every race
Has its role and has its place
One people, one nation, one Singapore

Today is the time of the year when we sing our hearts out, belting out the lyrics of those national songs爱国歌, with gusto and pride. And, I see no reason why we shouldn't do so.

This tiny red dot, smacks somewhere in that world globe of yours, has come a long long way, and has achieved so much that her people are all well taken care of. We may be well pampered, we have lots of complaints (yes, I know, Singaporeans are complaint kings and queens), know nought of social grace and road courtesy, love to queue especially the queue is for food (haha), never miss out a sale, super kiasu and whatever nought you name it. But that's what make us so special and unique.

We have an efficient government (I know I know, you guys may not agree with me and gonna protest) but we really cannot find fault with the current government. They make sure all of us have affordable roof over our head, a retirement egg nest, enjoy the harvest the government reaps, have the ability to work beyond retirement and be prepared at all times against terroism. So, what's so bad about it?

There will always be people out there sniggering at us being 乖乖仔, no freedom of speech (is that so?), the ruling PAP is our nanny, but who cares? Well, I do lah, especailly if it gets on my nerve. But I must pity those smart alecks coz they never enjoy what we are enjoying. Aiyah, I think they never know. They never will.

Like what PM Lee has said in his National Day speech, "Singapore's changing...and I'd like Singaporeans to see it." Yes, I do like what I am seeing and we defnitely will completely transform.

Happy Birthday Singapore, and for more good years ahead :)! Yeah!

I am 16...

....going on 17.........I know I am naive..... -- Sound of Music --

How I wish I can say that again. Oh alright, am 37 going on 38. OMG, 38. Should I say scary? I really cannot imagine when I hit the BIG 4--0 in a couple of years time.

When I was much younger and innocent (*ahem), I simply could not wait for my 21st birthday. When it finally came, it was just fantastic coz leagally, I'm an adult. Ha....so, soon after, 22nd, 23rd came so fast that I could bargain for. So much so that I wish time can slow down.

I know, ageing with grace is a must now. And, as you grow a year older, you also turn wiser and mellower, hopefully. Everyday when I look at myself in the mirror, I really like what I am seeing. Yours truly looks so much presentable and more pleasing to the eyes :). Should I say with more sophistication? Yes, would like to believe so. And, yes, beauty never comes cheap or easy. You cannot imagine the regime, day and night, hot and cold, you have to adhere. Well, nothing ventures nothing gains. Yes? No?

I am always a happy-go-lucky gal, and definitely a staunch believer of kismet/fate. I, for one, do not believe that you can change or test fate. Your life has been destined upon birth and it is up to you how to live it to the fullest, for worse or for better. I choose to live it happily and adventuoursly. Happily coz I love the warm fuzzy feeling of joy and happiness. Adventurously coz you only live once, so no room for regret. None at all, to be precise.

So, at this point of time, I have crossed half of my life. Yes, there is no regret or whatsoever, and I do not see why I should have any. I try not to dwell on the uncertainty which may lie ahead of me. Come what may, it will be....que sera sera.....

狮子座

如果你想认识，或了解我，我想，以下的小解可让你得到一些蛛丝马迹。


狮子是森林之王，但大家都知道，比狮子聪明，厉害的动物不计其数。无可否认的，狮子的长相与吼声架势十足，而且独来独往的它们，很容易显得自以为是或高高在上。这点与狮子座人生的基调很相似。但自以为是和高高在上，都是在人群中比较出来的，当人群散去后，自以为是可能转变成不被了解的愤怒，而高高在上则导致高处不胜寒的孤寂感。

人生如戏，生活的每个角落都是人生舞台，既然要表演，就要演的漂亮、秀个痛快。狮子座人把生活的每个角落都当成自己表演的舞台，似乎看淡人生的他们，其实有一套强烈的自我主张。

狮子座的女孩是那种被群星拱月而仍旧泰然自若的女子，她也许不是最美，但是派头最足、人气最旺，举手投足之间散发出来的热力，可以将所有异性的眼神熔化。

不管她在现实世界的出身如何，她都是传说中的皇族女子。表现欲很强的狮子座女性，一旦不受到别人的重视或被低估时，脸上会立即显现出不悦的神色，令人敬而远之。但她们做任何事都光明磊落，自信心极强，且不畏权势。

狮子座的女性很自我，做事没恒心。所以，虽具备临导能力，却很难有效地发挥。不过，她们具有为别人牺牲、奉献的精神，而且有一颗真诚的心。

对狮子座而言，爱可以让世界转动。他们喜欢爱人，也喜欢被爱。他们是理想的情人，具备了使爱情变得神奇或使某件事变得特别的天赋。

他们也需要对方的回应，不论男女，都一样是善妒的猫，无法忍受一堆苍蝇追逐着他们的另一半，更加无法忍受的是背叛，那会使他们深深受伤，而且无法宽恕对方。

他们还会期望对方如对待君王或女王般地对待他们，从某个角度来说，狮子座可能表现出惹人爱的一面，所以你才愿意这么对待他（她）。但从另一个角度来看，这种帝王般的态度，有时还真惹人厌。

给你一个吻

嗨嗨，各位叔叔阿姨大家好！我是我christina阿姨的小外甥女，信宜。

我已经2个月大了，不过阿姨恨不得我快快长大。不要啦，做baby最好，吃了睡，睡醒了又吃。哈，好开心，不用愁，又有人疼，人生一大乐也。

说人生我肯定还未有资格，但别怕别怕，阿姨和姨丈有先见之明，给我取了个好名字：信宜 -- “一生持信，终世得宜”。他们要我秉着信义做人，宜人宜己。哇，得铭记在心哦。

喔，又是睡觉时间咯！叔叔阿姨们，改天再聊啦！

千里之外

最近迷上了周杰伦和费玉清的“千里之外”。很特殊的对唱、合作，很中国风。

若你有闲的话，不妨去听一听，会上瘾的。
