等。

 
PS: 启发来自 “等一个人咖啡” 的其一歌曲 “咖啡在等一个人”。
 
等着雨过天晴,等着那雨后七彩的彩虹,或是等着那祈求已久的雨天。
等着迟迟未来的巴士或地铁,或是就是等着那还没出现的人。。。
 
这世界上,每一个人都在等一个人。等着他或她的出现,祈求天赐良机,好让自己别再等下去。或许人性缺乏耐性,有些事,我们就是等不及,就是希望能快些得到。
 
等,非常奥妙。有听说过 “守得云开见月明” 这句话吗?其实等着人,事,物,的那个过程蕴含着那在等的人的坚持与恒心。科技的发达,让人快了脚步,慢了心跳,变得不耐烦,对周遭都带着一种 “自扫门前雪” 的态度。虽说,不耐烦地等,也是在等,但心态却与在静静等待的人差了十万八千里。 也许,人就觉得岁月不留人,不想浪费这一点一滴的时间慢慢地等着,心里不知结果如何,忐忑不安。越快知道,就不需要再费任何时间与心思在那事上。
 
相反的,我认为年纪大了,却越有耐心去等。生命就是那么讽刺,那么令人啼笑皆非。人到了一个阶段,能说是少了那股年少的力量,不会随意横冲直撞,也多了人生经验,凡事尽量带着旁观者的心态与眼睛来面对任何事物,以便能看清当局在发生的事。人常说 “苍天有眼”,必定会让有心者,如愿以偿。这,我一定不会推翻,并且双手举高赞同。
 
等一等,虽然时光不能回头,但那整个过程,可以是那么的丰富,让在等的人受益不浅。也许,有些事的发生与否,在于那个在等的人,是否愿意继续静静地等下去。虽说人能有几个十年 (打个比喻)地等着,青春已不存在,但是那经历过的过程,却是量身定做专属那个愿意等的人。不知道结局又如何,只要等,耐心地等,过程或许会比结局更加多姿。
 
 

因为完美的结局,只是为了那些愿意,且不会不耐烦等的人,而绘画出来的。
“等” 是一名画家,而它的彩色,就是我们。选择色彩缤纷,还是黯淡潦倒在于我们自己。
我会选择等,因为我相信那会是值得的。

如果时光能够倒流。。。


是否曾有想回到过去的念头?
“想说,如果回到了过去,我就不会犯同样的错。” - 或似乎同类的感想。。。

还是会有这样的感想 。。。
“如果能回到过去,我就会把我那时没说的话,但超想对她说的话,给说出来。”

我们都是时光的傀儡,偶尔被它玩弄在手中,不幸运的的话,哈哈,我也就不必多说了。
周杰伦唱出了 《回到过去》,唱出了很多痴情男女的心声。
“想回到过去,试着让故事继续,至少不会让你离我而去。。。”
多悲呀,多伤感呀。。。

有时候,回到过去或者不是个好的选择。
你是否还能面对同样的失败?或者接受更惨痛的结局?
当然,话别说的那么糟,因为没人知道结果会是如何。
你可以很乐观,但人生有时就爱玩弄那些乐观的人,让他们尝尝堕落的滋味。

有时候,我们就是好奇,想说 “如果真的回到过去,做了不敢做的事,结局会是如何?”
人嘛,就是喜欢知道结局。打个简单的例子,有些人读书时,会翻到未页看看结局,害怕自己没法把整本书给读完。你是否也是这一类的人呢?
翻读结局未曾是件坏事,只是当你知道了结局,又如何?
如果不是你想要的结局,你是否能够坦荡荡地接受那个不是你梦想结局的结局?
事物中的问号,让你对于面对真相也感到一些些的胆怯。


唉,残忍的时光,我们的主人。。。
我也曾希望时光能够倒流,让我弥补我的过错,做个更好的人。
但想了一想,就觉得时光让我长见,让我学习到了人生的生活道德。
所谓 “吃一堑,长一智”,我历生的经验,是任何金钱也买不来的。

时光倒流,你是否还是执着在那咬牙切齿的过去?
“往事只能回味” - 这个歌唱得再恰当不了。
或许选择放弃你那从前的悔意,你能够得到你要的解脱。。。

Does 1 + 1 = 2 in every situation?

Does logic really work in every situation?
Should emotions and senses be factored in situation disintegrating?

In my opinion, though logic is the basis for most problem solving, but those problem solving are usually matters related to the non-living, that is to say, humans aren't involved in that equation.
 
Humans are complicated to begin with, and with all the hormones, emotions, thoughts et cetera, it can almost equate to a nuclear bomb. Yeah, you didn't read wrongly, "bomb". How many a times when someone just flare up at you for nothing, or show you his "you-owe-me-a-million-dollars" attitude just out of the blue? Well, you didn't do anything to offend or piss that person off though.
 
I will not say that I've been through so much complicated matters that I could write a book titled "The Complicated Life of Daniel". But what I've been through is good enough to mess up my life for a good period of time, and yes, logic is like a douchebag during those moments. It doesn't help and it just complicate things even more.
 
Complicated and messy life, but life goes on. Haven't you heard enough of that cliche statement which goes like "Time waits for no man (or woman)."? To a certain hateful extent, that statement kinda burns when one sets him/herself into a downward spiral EMO-sensation. It's like the time is saying "Well, go on with your self-pity, nobody cares, not even those whom you think are closest to you." Ouch? Yes. Painful? Yes. Feeling ridiculed at? Absolutely.
 
Logic, like I mentioned earlier, can be a douchebag in sensitive and touchy issues. Emotions and senses doesn't seem to be any much better either. As a matter of fact, once you roll in these two mates, they're just gonna stir s*** up in the inside of you and make things far more worst when you introduced "Logic" to your innerman.
 
Perhaps, I'm just thinking far too much and deep in many situations. Perhaps, I should just "let nature take its course" and be laidback, while waiting for things to unfold before my very eyes. Perhaps, just perhaps.
 
Logic, emotions, senses, please, let my tired soul rest just a little while.

Have you ever wondered...


The picture says it all. And I fall victim to it, not once, nor twice, but countless times.

When we have those words at the tip of the tongue, we will tend to hold back at that very last minute, just because the following questions 'pop' up in the brain:
1. What will he/she think if I said this? Can I accept his/her reaction to it?
2. Will those words be too mean/harsh? Will I hurt his/her feelings?
3. Will I sound stupid if I just blurt everything out without any filtering?

And at the end, we will just be thinking and be like "Well, let's keep this to another time. Perhaps it's just not the time yet..."

"Not the time yet..." - Again and again, this phrase makes victim out of many of us. Perhaps not many of us, perhaps, only me... Yes, I mentioned about Carpe Diem, about siezing the moment, however, being a do-er is always more challenging than the one who only speaks.

"Speak faith into that vision and it will soon turn into action." I've never doubted this, and I can vaguely remember where did I hear this from (Bible School perhaps?). Action is a very big word, as defined by www.dictionary.com, which is "an act that one consciously wills and that may be characterized by physical or mental activity."

Just two quotes which I personally favorite:
  • Think twice before you speak, because your words and influence will plant the seed of either success or failure in the mind of another. - Napoleon Hill
  • Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools because they have to say something. - Plato
Words have such impact on the human minds, that it can either encourage or inhibit growth. And usually people with high EQ (emotional intelligence) encourage growth more than inhibiting it, as they are rather sensitive in their words used on others.

Well, at the very end, some things in life just cannot be rushed to get the results which one desired. As a Chinese proverb that goes "欲速则不达", which means haste makes waste, it is necessary that one have patience and not speak anything that just come to your mind.

Keep Calm and don't be gan jiong (anxious in Hokkien)...

心目中的女神

 

嘿,别那么快裁决我呀。。。!

对,心目中的女神,每一个人都有他那标准的女神。而既然身为雄性的我,谈谈女神是最恰当的啦。。。!(当然,对女生,她们也有心目中的男性!)

说到标准,怎样才算是合格的标准呢?
打个比方,自己如果在10分里,给自己打6分 (或是朋友给你打6分),你不可能高攀一个10分的女神。当然自己得做做自我检讨,不能对自己太过放纵,也不要对自己太过苛刻。

攀得太高会有反效果,其一为自己得改变许多来迁就对方,其二为没足够的意志力来坚持那份改变的热诚。如果搭上了一位比自己还要低分数的女生,也不好强逼对方为你做出许多的改变,因为这带有那自私的行为。爱一个人,不是要对方改变成你所想要的人,而是包容对方的缺陷。试回想一下为何当时会选择她,而不是别人。

男人,不要犯下全天下男人都会犯的错 - 那就是以貌‘娶’人。
外表往往是第一的出发点,但别忘了外表随着时间会老化,而人心随着时间的摧残,都依然不变。多花一些时间,多费一些心思了解你的女神,而我不是说以偷窥或跟踪 (俗称 stalking)式去了解她喔~ 采取不健康的方式去了解你的女神会带来极恶的反效果。

了解一个人,需要沟通。你能了解一个素不相识的人吗?即使你是心理医生,或是看相的,你也没那如神般的本事,一见就明。沟通是需要时间的;沟通是得放心思去听对方所说的话,看对方的身体语言,想对方的思想构造。沟通,如果是你所认为表面讲讲话,吃顿饭的话,那你还真肤浅呀。。。

对了,也不要相逢恨晚,因为全都是天注定的啦。(哈哈!)

遇到你那心目中的女神,往往会有一些 “病症”,例如:
1。会对自己傻笑,有如心花怒放的仪态。
2。会渴望见到对方,因为日子再过差,只要能一日见到女神,所有的烦恼都会自然而然地抛到九霄云外。
3。会想展现出自己最好的一面,不失仪态。

这些只是冰山棱角的病症,如果要聊下去,我想明天都聊不完。
但如果就那么被上天怜惜,把你们俩撮合在一起,那维持这段恋情,就得保持这份 “病症”。因为这些 “病症”,你带有了仰慕与爱,而这俩能将恋情维持到海枯石烂。

 
对了,当彼此坠入了爱河,别忘了发掘彼此爱的语言 (俗称 love language,而它的五大区域为 Words of Affirmation, Acts of Service, Receiving Gifts, Quality Time, Physical Touch。做个测验来查看自己爱的语言 http://www.5lovelanguages.com/),因为当你知道她爱的语言,你们彼此的恋爱会更上一层!!

Moments...


I suppose there were moments when you wake up and you have such a thought in your mind - wanting to live today to the fullest, being all excited, hyped up and ready to go.

Such adrenaline rush, such vigor...

However, moments in life ain't just about the ups, as there's a saying which goes "Whatever goes up, must come down.", and being a Science educator, the Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation (allow me to 'try' to link it) also states as such.

Valleys of life - nobody likes those, and nobody will like to experience much of those either. Having said so, the law of nature hardly bless one to live a peaceful and smooth life.

Enjoy the happy moments, and learn from the valley moments. A simple statement, however difficult to master it. Humans being humans, valley moments will usually affect us, and the duration of it differs for each individual.

Carpe Diem - Sieze the day, sieze the moment. A new semester awaits before me, however, I'm not even abit enthusiastic about it. Can that good moment sieze me though...?

遇。见。

《遇见 - 孫燕姿》

向左向右向前看,
爱要拐几个弯才来。。。

我遇见谁会有怎样的对白,
我等的人她在多远的未来,
我听见风来自地铁和人海,
我排着队拿着爱的号码牌。。。

我遇见你是最美丽的意外;
终有一天,我的谜底会解开。。。

 
台北淡水渔人码头,也称做是 “情人桥”
 
我就在这儿听到这位匿名的男生唱着这首曲子 -- 熟悉的音律,在我耳里旋绕着。
但是把我勾到能跟着音律哼着这首曲子,是他的声音。
他似乎也曾经遇到同样的,不是遭遇,怎么说呢,就是同样情形。
我呀,哈,当然也是乌鸦一班黑。
 
十日在台湾,遇见到的,不只是人,也有许多耐人寻味的事物。
这位匿名的先生,也是其中之一。 
我在那附近徘徊着一段时间,听着他以那完美的歌声,唱出一首首优美的歌。
我非常刻意的呆在5米周围,所以我能听清他那蕴含着自己感情的歌声。
他那充满着感情的歌声,让我时光倒流,带着我回到了过去。。。
 
越渴望着要挽留,往往会一招打翻那所有的希望与期待。
虽然说有着那点点的渴望,天公会疼惜你,恩赐予你,
但是凡是都有它那自己的时期与阶段。
在错的时机,无论其它的条件是多么的完美无暇,你一样还是会失去你眼前的一幕。
爱情就是一个完美的例子 -- 万事俱备,只欠东风,那再美好的爱情也不能开花结果。
 
 
这张照片说明了一切。我就觉得时刻要抓的对,那其余的,就会顺其自然地慢慢发展。
她那时刻的表情是无价,我也能确定她的男友看到她这份表情,也感到非常欣慰。
 
有些事,你烦着,也没着落。
不如带着 “遇见” 的心态,随着它自己的发展,让自己摆脱困境。
这世上没有解不开的锁,没有解不开的心,
只要遇到好的时机,乌云后的一方就是彩虹。

这世上有些事就是不能以字体来形容,不能以言语来解释,
它就是这样,顺着世界的节奏,表达出一种只有你的心与灵才能够了解与体会。

我,要带着 “遇见” 的心态,
等待与期待着专属于我自己的未来,
和那在拐几个弯后再遇见的女孩,
因为那端就是那道彩虹!

如果你也是个迷茫羔羊正在寻找那道彩虹,
你也一起踏上 “遇见” 的旅程吧!

心。灵。

今日之言。。。



是否对这两句话感到亲切或熟悉?
 
人的心不能够具体地说明,因为它囊括了人的灵。
心灵是在人的最根深,藏着当事人的秘密,恐惧等等。
我曾听过眼睛是人心灵的窗帘,而透过一个人的眼神,你能看穿他/她的心。
(难怪男女关系无时无刻都互看眼神,看对方是否真诚)
 
因为心与灵的复杂性,它不时会让当事人产生错觉,因此改变了人性。
人心会告诉当事人 “不要勉强了,与其浪费精神在这事,不如转移视线,寻找新的目标。”
 
人的个性,是善变的,或许会有人不认同,
但是只要能遇到一件触摸着你的心灵,你的个性往往会顺着心灵的呼唤而改变。
 
你曾否遇到一件事,让你日有所思,夜有所梦?
这可是你的心灵在作怪。
但是,这个让人咬牙切齿的心灵其实有它的好意。
你越不想面对的事,你的心灵就会逼你去面对;
你越不想听到的事,就会偶然让命运作弄,让你听见。
对的,勇敢面对是你心灵的指示,让你变得更坚强。
 
我呀,哈哈,也被我的心灵整了要死不活。
好在这位心灵手下留情,让我顺利通过难关。
 
自己的本能,不要完全相信或依靠。
自己的心灵,不要完全封闭不听它对你的呼唤。
人之初,性本善;人的心灵往往出自于一番苦心好意。
 
心灵呀,心灵,
在我明日起程的台湾之旅好好的呼唤我吧!

Starting afresh...

"Who doesn't like the idea of starting all over again...?"

We all have a history hidden somewhere within us, and wished that it will never come back to haunt us again. Thankfully, I forgot my OLD blogspot, that seems eternity for me.

I believe, it's never too old to start all over again. God gives grace to all humans, and of course, not for us to abuse the use of it. The upcoming trip, I shall call it - The Renewal. (chey... such name...)

Other than enjoying the flora and fauna of what is being bestowed upon the Land of Taiwan, it will also be a 10-days journey of finding the answers for the path that lies ahead of me.

Signing off with 2 quotes...



To those who need a new hope for a fresh start, seek nowhere but from your inner self.
Because the solution only comes when you desire to be freed from the past...
