雨，那一方 – Jun 30, 2010

玖伍贰柒 — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 15:51:30 +0000

。。。。。。

。。。。。。

好几年前的后山，胶片，春节时用相机转拍出来，光线以及保存的原因，只作记录用。试着调了一下色彩和曲线，慢慢学习后期制作中。

雨，那一方

跨出大门，稍微错愕
伸手出去，放眼望去
感觉不到雨水
不管地面尽湿，仍继续进行
放松一会儿腿部
关节
开始起程
耳朵中的喇叭
响起了某支歌

不到一百米
细微雨丝漂亮
很快为镜片镀了一层膜
想起了不同的镜头
在不同的场景下变幻出
不同的景色
想起了该在这里写写
回车键行诗

不到两百米
脚部传来雨水特有的性质
没错
袜子湿了一点
这并不能阻止
步伐
反而放松感官
吸取周围一切
夜色下的
街市

三百米了
那首歌还没有结束
开始了一个短短的斜坡
然后
就是沿着所谓的
河旁边的道路
继续前进

继续前进
还不是回头的时候

忽然，余光看到一点白色闪出
右手边
杀出一辆脚踏车
前白后红
在暗暗的路上缓缓前行
追着这一点红

来到一座横跨快速公路的天桥
那一点闪动的红放慢了速度
还是在前面蛇形
慢慢的提高海拔高度
无视两旁下面的车水马龙
又顺着下坡降低相对海平面
距离

就在桥路接壤处
闻到一阵咖哩的味道
然后有点变味
再想动用味蕾分辨时
那咖哩消失无踪

那点红停了下来
因此穿过了
红到白的时光
不知道那白是否在背后一直闪耀
前面不远处
一座跨河小桥
那河还是那所谓的河
同样的一点红
绝尘而去

回头
如旧尝试了一下自由式
右脚的鞋已经完全湿透
疲惫感如期涌来
想起了许多碎片
一阵阵的
毫无章法
将喇叭中的声音变成BBC
听到虎与龙的定位
这个世纪至少是
属于它们中的一个

停了下来
做了几个上肢运动

继续前行
腿部已不太听使唤
那阵咖哩味在同样的地段出现
可以确定
那来自吃剩的食物
不久在左边
看到仍在工作的挖土机

慢慢走回
坐在房间的T问去跑步了
还说
不要去跑，下次一起去游泳吧
说回来
还是他的评论使得跑这个动词在
这些日子的出现频率大大
降低

发现
鞋旁有一个大大的洞

Pentaxians Outing @ Helix 及其他 – May 08, 2010

玖伍贰柒 — Tue, 25 May 2010 13:11:24 +0000

Pentaxian Outing at Helix, May 08, 2010, Group shot, by fengwei

重新签线后花了99块弄了部Blackberry 8520已把玩了两个多星期，从滚轮“升级”到光轨迹触摸有稍许不适应，随着时间的推移，已经能够灵活操作。之前的那个二手加山寨壳子的8320友情赠送给HB哥哥，外响已经给摔得人耳不能听闻，幸好有震动功能，还可以发挥余热；希望HB可以如期通过考试。机子是在勿洛的一家经销商那拿到，电信商已经没有供货，签的是新电信合约，电话却是星和的；没有TCH哥哥的“走街串巷”扫街也可能要大出血升级到9700啦。8520的运行速度比8320快多了，第二天就刷到最新的后台，换个喜欢的主题，用上24里面的电话铃声，爽的不亦乐乎。现在用个笨拙但实用的皮套保护着，完全具备抗摔打能力，

插播一下：24已经大结局了，还没有看到。据Mopa说“《24》导演如琼瑶附身为这部跨越10年的史诗剧终于画上句号，片尾首次打出倒计时”。另外据说C下个月初会回来，热烈期待中。

转移的麻烦也仍然存在，但却不恼人。首先是附带的桌面软件不能识别8320，在不同的电脑上装了两遍还是不能解决，闻了一下股沟，方法简单到极致：

问题描述，连接至计算机时出现下面的提示：“Intellisync 无法连接至设备。请确定已正确连接设备并重试。”

选择备份，弹出错误：“通信错误，数据未被设备识别”

桌面管理器与正常连接后的样子不同，这时的窗口下方，活动设备（PIN）后面是空白的。

解决方法：进入黑莓手机的选项－－>语言－－>将“language”和“input language”都改成“english”，保存后拔掉电池，再装上，完成重新启动。重新接上电脑后已经恢复正常。

然后在电子书阅读软件Mobipocket Reader上遇到问题，不能够跳到某一页去，如果有几千页，不是要翻死我。还是问了一下股沟，处理方法还是那么简单，装上它的试用版即可：

I have installed a couple of book titles and was using them and they were working fine. Now when I push navigate to get to another chapter or area in the book nothing happens. I don’t understand why it stopped working. It is making it almost unusable. Please help.

之后很不喜欢自带的中文输入法，选字的方式很白痴，毫无快捷方式。挖地三尺，勉强用点讯输入法代替，它并不在默认的输入法里面，每当需要它时，得通过菜单把它调用出来，四咇先呢。一口气装了几个游戏，将Nintaii玩通关后就没有了新鲜劲，另外一个minefield也是一样很耗电。对7290念念不忘的原因就是它的续航能力，遥想公瑾当年，摇手间撑个四五天完全不成问题。

周六去巴哈伊中心参加巴孛宣示日(Declaration of the Bab)的庆祝活动，聚在一起朗读一些祷文和诗篇，时间不长就结束了。似乎这也是很久以来参加的活动，从日志的更新频率也可以猜出消沉的日子仍在继续。有些念头不想去深思，车到山前必有路，有路必然桥头直。周五的英语角和羽毛球则是尽量轮流着去，James和Carole坚持到现在的精神值得好好学习。活动过后，与M和D去LL公司租给她的房子，位于Marina Bay，从窗户上可以看到鱼尾狮前面的那片海以及金沙赌场那三叉戳，徐徐转动的摩天轮在远处衬托着下面万盏灯火。去年建成的公寓设施齐全，8楼的露天游泳池和小公园倒影着对面灯火通明的办公室。是什么让JCs认为可以邀请LL会参加庆祝活动呢，毕竟才刚刚见面认识的。周日的日语课后，跟E和S逍遥了半天一直到夜幕降临，叽叽喳喳，家长里短的氛围使得有些时候感觉自我很像Rajesh Koothrappali，懒人借此感谢S帮忙整理文件和摆放。我喜欢的“钢铁人很二”要到4点多才开映，不得以选了Robin Hood，这是一个关于英国佬和法国佬、苏格兰佬和英格兰佬、英奸和英雄的故事，从长长的资本主义血与泪历史中抽了小小的一段传奇就变成了眼前的Robin Hood，十字军东征的时期应该还属于封建时期吧。盗用豆瓣上一个人的评价：“他到底干了啥？”，而且据说历史也不是这样的。有些地方的风景还是蛮漂亮的，角斗士的肌肉仍然强横，值得一看的就这么多了。

而《火龙对决》中值得看的则是它那摄影手法，确切的说是它的构图。一开始就用两幅素描交代清楚了故事的起因，通过静态和广角镜头的应用将故事的压抑和紧张描绘的淋漓尽致。相对而言，它的动态描述显得凌乱，有几个场景似乎是抗在肩头上拍的，由于摄影师太高了，说笑啦。看到前小半段时，以为是一部卧底与反卧底的诗歌，可是随着剧情发展，血液横飙后，是不可能回头的了。究竟是因为没有按照自己预期的发展还是因为故事说得太肤浅而觉得不值给它个五星，值得肯定的是它的创新。另外一部黎明主演的《梅兰芳》在心中没有那么大的分量，拖沓的情节，处处枷锁，听不明白台上的那几分钟是否能够表明了梅大师的艺术成就。那个小孩是谁啊，为了让他上台，梅大师的耳朵能够从招风耳进化到轮飞廓饭。

每个月的宾得摄影聚会都会尽可能参加。这个月的地点是刚刚竣工不久的双螺旋桥(Helix)，从浮台连接到金沙赌场。那天去到时，仍有一半没有开放，不过在那前几天已经举行了开幕仪式，放了新加坡版只有几分钟的烟花。带着自己剩有的家当早早到达那边，跟朋友稍微打声招呼，就散开或蹲或站，或上或下，或前或后对这个以后会被描绘成通往成功或破产之路的桥按照各自的理解摄入闪存中。

在阳光下暴晒了几个小时后，向金沙酒店和赌场所在的购物大厦扫过去。不一会儿，我就找不到大部队了。独自在三叉戳的内部抬头研究好一阵层层向上依次缩进的构造，在赌场门口徘徊了好一阵子。按照很久以前的计划，应该是跟朋友一起进去看看里面的纸醉金迷。既然不像新加坡人或者永久居民需要缴纳100块的入场费，那么到那地头不进去看看就是不给人家面子啦。跟电影里面的场景差不多，大众区分成两层，在第二层可以俯瞰下面鳞次而立的赌桌，利用流线型的设计使赌桌上方的灯光看起来层次有落。上面三层估计是贵宾室，按照某种贝壳的内形顺势而上。依次在21点、转盘、老虎机、大小桌上流连一番，忽然工作人员推着饮料车过来，她听到一个涩涩的声音问道是否可以喝那些饮料。于是，喝了一杯冰镇可乐后继续闲逛。赌场应该高兴不是每个人都进去只是喝杯可乐，他们靠几张赌桌就可以赚回所有的投资，牛。最后共花了一个小时才“找到”出口。

罗哩罗嗦了很久，上图片吧：

如果跟他们呆到晚上则会更加漂亮

人生若只如初见 – Apr 29, 2010

玖伍贰柒 — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 09:45:51 +0000

相信冥冥中有注定么？还是各个分子原子离子各自振动后的巧合？每个人都带着自己的记忆前行，追寻着所知的‘道’。

闲话少说。周日由Richard“作东”，在风和日丽的下午去西北部的双溪布洛沼泽保护区(Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve)转悠。一路走入，两边树木葱郁，知了鸣叫声此起彼伏，阳光变得毒辣起来，因此只走了Route 1的半圈返回。路途上在合适之处设有观鸟台，R说最好的时光是在早上7点多，空无人迹，最美的一面在面前打开。那边的常客包含了常住鸟和候鸟，中午时分并不是个很好的时间。桥下的鳄鱼也有同感，只愿意在水面上露出小半个头颅。开放式的厕所跟植物园的设计异曲同工，最有意思的是男女标识牌，用Pink-necked Pigeon来区别，而Diaper Change室则是鸟妈妈带着幼鸟的图片。

第一次在这里看到竹子，据说，当年李光耀说竹子杂乱无章，然后我们就看不到竹子了。

这好像是蜥蜴

不是涨潮时间，保护区对面就是新山，水质相当不佳

可惜拍不到鳄鱼的全身

稍微在那保护转了一个小时，在R家稍作休息，等待太阳再西下点前往他家附近的Singapore Quarry。R给我看了两本有关新加坡历史的画册，他乐于在里面挑错，将他发现的错误说明专门打印出来放在书里面做为自己的参考，林林总总叹为观止。去了Singapore Quarry后，夜幕降临，拿出他家兼职佣人早上做的晚餐做为一天的结束语。很谢谢R拿出他宝贵的时间，作为“私人导游”在这个高楼林立的地方游览跟大自然亲近的地方和动物。简单的快乐。

Singapore Quarry的入口在Diary Farm路上，登上两个山坡，绕过几个弯，一个依山而建的小小园林如画卷般在眼前展开。这个小湖是在以前挖山剩下的半个山头上特意围成，已看不出当初劈开山脉的痕迹。R介绍该地方的那个角落会有哪些鸟，什么时间会有海鸟过来觅食，如数家珍。后来遇到他的“路边”朋友，口沫横飞，分享各自对这个小小湖飞禽走兽的发现。检查照片时发现，大部分都跑焦了，手艺生疏了不少。

黑白分明

依山傍水

坚持 – Apr 19, 2010

玖伍贰柒 — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 14:41:42 +0000

在空旷的舞台上
闲庭似步
台下两拨人
各自打着羽毛球
抬头望去
一片白色的乌云
光线从旁边飘过
– 成于周五某小学礼堂

贰零壹零年肆月壹日，妹妹身份升级。白头偕老，子孙满堂。

看着上一篇日志，已经是半个月前的尸骸。留言也是没有回复，坚持的不是拖，坚持的是要认清自己。Fo.问巴厘的行程以及资料，通过无线网络苦笑对之，经过20天的沉淀，在近似空白的湖面上蜻蜓点水，碎片已随波澜远去。在斋节的最后几篇日志中透露出更艰巨的战斗即将来临，现在也是到报告战绩之时。全军覆没，接下来做个傀儡政府还是屡败屡战，都是未知数。精神上的雄起比下半身难多了，不时有所谓的顿悟充斥人类的历史长河，相对而言，伟哥的数量比顿悟的次数还是多得多。CASL仍前途未卜，T带来他不是在监狱的消息，却不确定在警察局呆多久。阿公的手臂仍旧麻痹，除了祈祷还能够做些什么，辛苦阿婆了。近日，“爱国家不等于爱朝廷”狠狠的为大家上了一堂课。

暂为记。

Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing

A wolf, once upon a time, found it so hard to get close enough to attack a flock of sleep that he often went hungry. For a long time the shepherd had guarded his lambs and sheep so carefully that the wolf was becoming desperate.

One night the wolf found a sheepskin that had been thrown away and forgotten. The wolf resolved to disguise himself and so gain an easy living. Quickly he slipped the sheepskin over his own hide and next morning strolled into the pasture with the grazing sheep as if he were one of them.

Soon the lamb that had belonged to the sheep whose skin the wolf was wearing began to follow the wolf. Leading her a little distance apart from the rest of the flock, the wolf in sheep’s clothing made a good meal of her. For a while he succeeded in deceiving the other sheep and enjoying hearty meals.

Even the shepherd was fooled by the wolf in disguise, for when evening came, the wolf in sheep’s clothing was shut up with the sheep in their fold.

But it happened that the shepherd had a longing for mutton broth for his supper that night. Picking up a knife, he went to the fold, and reaching in, seized the first animal he came to. Mistaking the wolf for a sheep, the shepherd killed him on the spot.

For discussion:
1. Why was the wolf successful in getting food when he put on the sheepskin?
2. We have a saying in English “a wolf in sheep’s clothing”. If used to describe a person, what does the phase mean?
3. When you meet someone, how can you know if he or she is sincere? What should you look for?
4. Why is it important that our friends are sincere?
5. What problems can happen if your friends are insincere?

话刚落音，DY就在牛车水的Kreta Ayer CC订了星期六上午10点半开始的两个小时羽毛球场地。“熬”到周六，用牙签将眼皮撑开，跑半个新加坡岛迟到半个小时赶到。当时没有意识到就算不会打，那么自己也应该“敬业”的打球，谢谢DY和GF的陪伴。说实话，现在大腿上仍有些许酸痛，身体素质不是一般的差。打完球，按约定的那样在珍珠坊门口买了些鸭脖子、猪耳朵、重庆酸辣粉、重庆凉粉作为午餐，可能鸭脖子不够辣的原因，还是觉得猪耳朵好吃，yummy，yummy。之后他俩要到小印度附近的教堂参加一些活动，居于体力问题我就没有掺和了。吃饭过程中，DY跟我说她所认为的上帝是一个过程，倒是一个很新颖的说法。当然我还是用上帝是整个宇宙说明了一下，但是却对这个提法的来龙去脉没有说清楚；原因吗，就用上帝是不可知以及不可言说来糊弄你们了，哈哈。约好周日去听福海禅寺的佛家讲座，最后因为不可奉告的理由睡到了下午才起来损失掉了那个缘分。另外感触较大的是当天出门之前，TCH跟我提起家人的重要性，他也在身体力行地实践这个原则，可以看到，我将会在他身上学到许多如何跟家人相处等等合适的方法和态度。今天晚餐时，说起同事的一些事情，而这些都是我没有注意到的。他说，要善于观察周围的人，比如说动物就很注意周围的环境，虽然不必把每件事记在心中，但提炼相关的信息却是必要的。Be prepared.

周六和周日晚上将新的Heroes和一些电影赶玩，Heroes已经是看那些熟悉的面孔晃来晃去就很满足了。对着电脑，在那些电影名字前面犹豫再三要不要点开它们，可能很怕看到烂片，可是犹豫的时候已经可以看完一部烂片了，比如楼上的外星人。昨天将所有的空余时间利用朋友已经看过的电影列表选出自己已经看过的，然后打上星级和标签，当然是在豆瓣上，它推出了一个电台，里面的歌曲还不错，可能是根据所喜欢的专辑来随机推出个人的音乐台。而今天将所有的空余时间看darrensun的游记，虽然只是东南亚，这种义工加旅行以及gap year的想法很吸引人。期待金龟换酒的gap year。

明天太阳下山后就是巴哈欧拉的生日了。

P.S. TLT姑姑给的男孩‘配方’希望能够奏效。这不属于祈祷的范围，我想。

附上之前没有贴出来的英语角话题：

How to make jiaozi (dumplings)

Jiaozi is a type of Chinese dumpling made with minced meat and chopped vegetables wrapped in a piece of thin dough. It can be boiled, fried or steamed. When fried, it is called a pot-sticker. This traditional cuisine can be found in the north of China. On Chinese New Year’s (Spring Festival) eve, making and eating Jiaozi is a tradition in the north of China. At this time, all members of the family will get together to make and enjoy them. Making this special food is quick and simple, and is a wonderful way to bring a family together.

Instructions:
1. First make a simple oil and flour dough, then and roll the dough into small thin circles. This will be the Jiaozi wrapper.
2. Place a full teaspoon of filling onto a Jiaozi wrapper.
3. Use a finger to dap the edges of the Jiaozi wrapper with water.
4. Form the Jiaozi wrapper into a crescent moon by folding the cover in half.
5. Press the edges to seal the dumpling.
6. Crimp the edges to make sure the edges are tightly sealed. To cook the Jiaozi, bring a pot of water to a boil. Gently drop the Jiaozi into the boiling water and keep stirring with a pair of chopsticks to prevent them from sticking to one another and to the bottom of the pot.When the water comes back to a boil, add in half a cup of cold water. This is to prevent the dumpling form breaking up due to the over rolling boil. When the water comes back to a boil, the dumplings will float to the top. They are now ready to enjoy.

Cucumber and pork fillings
Ingredients:
250g lean ground pork
250 cucumber
Bruised ginger
Scallions
Black fungus
Garlic
Seasoning:
Monosodium glutamate (MSG)
Vegetable oil
Sesame oil
Finely diced garlic

灯火阑珊处 – Sep 04, 2009

01.
拟定标题之前，心中已经回响了多次要在近期进行植树造林活动，此树非彼树也。这个回响的频率似乎表明了是为了这样才生存下来。偶然拾回过去的时光，加深了在树洞的深度，也形成了线性化的冲动要表露出来。但是，这里并不是自己的心灵私家花园，每敲下一个字都是脚后跟与地面碰撞后的结果，而不能自由自在的飞翔。在进行了一些计划后，似乎又是被不同的活动打碎，如玻璃碎片般在地上闪闪发亮，正如人生路旁的风景，被吸引着去追随一个个看似有用却是五彩的泡沫。少了两个色彩，那是好奇心和耐心。阿博都巴哈说：“。。。个人的幸福和伟大、级别和地位、喜悦和安宁从来都不取决于他人的财富的多寡，而在于他出众的性格、坚定的毅力、渊博的知识和他解决问题的能力。”回首，更多的是灯火不能辐射到的地方，有多少未决之事，有多少遗憾之事，有多少可恨之事只能让自己聚焦在那火苗上，纵然失去光明也不愿离开半寸。

It’s Saturday already, and I believe my colleague who missed his flight is finally on the way home now after two years in Singapore. It was lucky that the travel agent willing to renew his flight tickets. E.T. says, home, with his figure pointing to the sky. LQ is at Kuala Lumpur now, it was nice with Teck Cheng and David saw her take off. And thanks from deep heart for Teck Cheng’s wonderful dinner. Beside this, I feel guilty when I realize that she and Margaret trying to “pull me back” from time to time. I wish I can, I couldn’t make it at this moment. There are more evidences prove that I have a weak memory ability, I hope I can solve this problem by reschedule my life style and doing more exercise etc. And the timetable for this rescheduling is still on the schedule.

到中國去。Melic如愿以償踏上了蘭州的土地，而且看起來很快就適應了那邊的生活。迎接他的除了巴哈伊教友，還有條件舒適的居所和學校周圍星羅棋布的餐館。下次見到他時應該會變得胖些和白些。當初就因為留下一個郵件地址，讓我認識了這么好心腸和耐心的人和其他具有上帝屬性的朋友。生命的河流在那個時間點，稍微轉了一個方向。雖然仍在這個方向上徘徊，至少多了一個可能性。儒僖課程已經停下來，不過看到兵哥和GF大哥“接過”研習課程，當然不能作為借口的借口。希望Melic在中國撒下的種子能夠長出參天大樹。無論點樣，唔該噻。

If I’m not wrong, I’d absented two English Corner held by James & Carole. Because of lack of management of my own paper, I can’t figure out the date when we discussed the following topics:

The Happy Cure **

A foolish king lay dying. At least, that’s what he said. Yes, he said he was at death’s door. But the truth was this: the king was suffering from having nothing to do. He was being bored to death.

Of course, the king would not admit this. He groaned and moaned and complained of sharp stabs in every muscle and sticking pains in every bone. Doctors came from far and wide. They examined the king carefully but could find nothing wrong. ‘The doctors are idiots,’ cried the king in a rage. ‘the next one who examines me and finds nothing wrong will have his ears cut off and his nose shortened.’ But still the doctors came and still they found nothing wrong.

Finally a simple old woman came to see the king. She peered into the king’s face for a long time. Then she said, ‘Your Majesty, you are suffering from a strange and rare disease. So rare and strange, that no name exits for it.’ ‘There I knew it,’ cried the king in glee. ‘I kept telling all of them, the fools, that I’m a sick man.’ ‘A very sick man,’ said the old woman.

The king leaned back among his silken pillows and closed his eyes and wrinkled his brow as if he were in pain. ‘And is there no cure for me?’ he asked. ‘Oh, yes, your Majesty. You need to sleep but one night in the shirt of a happy man and you will be cured instantly.’ said the old woman.

The king summoned the captain of his guard and his bravest and best soldiers and swiftest messengers. ‘Start off at once, ‘ he commanded them, ‘and bring me back the shirt of a happy man. And don’t return without it,’ he said. They traveled far and wide; to the east, west, north and south but nowhere could they find a happy man. They sent long reports to the king and this is what they said:

The people in the east might be happy if your Majesty didn’t tax them so heavily.
And: The people in the west might be happy if they didn’t have to work so long and hard, so they might have time to enjoy singing and dancing.
And: The people in the north might be happy if sometimes they could see you and felt you were interested in them.
And: The people in the south might be happy if your Majesty would notice their industry and faithfulness and would reward them.

The king flung the reports away. But as time passed and no messenger returned he began to read the reports more carefully. More and more reports also came to him with the same message.

One day a little boy was walking on the palace grounds and came upon a man sitting under a tree. He was singing lustily. ‘Good afternoon,’ said the little boy politely. ‘What makes you sing so merrily?’ ‘I sing from joy,’ said the stranger. ‘I love my fellow men. I own but little and want less. I am a happy man and I sing.’ ‘A happy man!’ cried the little boy. ‘Oh, do you not know that the whole kingdom is looking for you? Do you not know that the king is very ill and only if he can sleep one night in the shirt of happy man can he be cured? Quick, quick, take off your shirt and give in to me.’

The man burst into laughter. ‘My shirt,’ he gasped, ‘Why, you silly boy, I don’t have a shirt.’ and jumping to his feet, he gathered his tattered coat and walked off.

The little boy rushed to the palace. ‘Oh, your Majesty,’ he cried. ‘The cure was right here all the time. I found him on the palace grounds. He said he loved his fellow men, owned but little and wanted less. But… but… I’m afraid he didn’t have a shirt.’

The king hung his head ashamed. ‘Yes, the cure has been here all the time,’ he murmured. ‘Only I can cure my own folly.’ And he resolved then and there to be a good king, to help his people, to rule wisely and well. He never fancied himself ill again for he became too busy for such folly, and so he lived to a ripe old age.

For discussion:
1. What does it mean to be healthy? What are some different kinds of health?
2. How is cleanliness associated with good health?
3. Do fear, anger, worry have an effect on health? If so, what about hope, love, and joy?
4. How can we assist in the healing of others?
5. There is a saying in English “Health is Wealth”. What does it mean?
6. Can being sick ever be good for someone?
7. Do diet and exercise have any connection with health? How?
8. Someone who is healthy but always things he is sick is called a “hypochondriac”. Do you know any such people? Do you ever fee sick when you are not really sick?
9. How often do you get sick? When do you decide to see a doctor? What advice do you have for people to keep healthy?

農歷七月。中元節。新加坡所處的地理位置據稱對應的是鬼門關，因此也有朋友說到七月十五晚上盡量不要再外面閑逛，畢竟那個時候是他們的“專場”。下班時分，到處都是煙幕彌漫，為神靈，為祖先，為分管不同事物的神仙奉獻上大把大把的銀錢。這時間上有個分歧，有人說要到夜幕降臨至少太陽下山后才適宜燒紙錢，因為那時候他們才會出來，才會重游舊地；而有的人則說，什么時候燒都是無所謂的。我以為，兩種都是可信的。可以想象另一邊應該有銀行業務，他們不能白天出來領取，那么自然有“法力”高強的機構可以代替保管著。除了自家供奉神靈外，各種聯合體也會大擺宴席宴請各界人士進行各種文娛活動，也就有人抱怨唱歌聽的姐們穿的太暴露了。

It’s not fair to key in the topics that we used in English corner if I’m going to build this longest post. As for ‘traditional’ reason, it’s all right to do so. I feel exhausted daily, it suppost to be some problem inside my body system. I’d rather not to mention in here. One of the reason might be we need to sleep well:

10 Tips for Better Sleep

Have you been feeling crabby lately? It could be you aren’t getting enough sleep. Work, household responsibilities and child care can make sleeping difficult. If you include other unexpected challenges such as financial worries, layoffs, relationship issues or an illness, quality sleep may be even more elusive.

You may not be able to control or eliminate all of the factors that interfere with your sleep, but you can create an environment and adopt habits that encourage a more restful night. Try these suggestions if you have trouble falling sleep or staying asleep:

Go to bed and get up at about the same time every day, even on the weekends. Sticking to a schedule helps reinforce your body’s sleep-wake cycle and can help you fall asleep better at night.

Don’t eat or drink large amounts before bedtime. Eat a light dinner about two hours before sleeping. If you’re prone to heartburn, avoid spicy or fatty foods, which can make your heartburn flare and prevent a restful sleep. Also, limit how much you drink before bed. Too much liquid can cause you to wake up repeatedly during the night for trips to the bathroom.

Avoid nicotine, caffeine and alcohol in the evening. These are stimulants that can keep you awake. Smokers often experience withdrawal symptoms at night, and smoking in bed is dangerous. Avoid caffeine for eight hours before your planned bedtime. Your body doesn’t store caffeine, but it takes many hours to eliminate the stimulant and its effects. And although often believed to be a sedative, alcohol actually disrupts sleep.

Exercise regularly. Regular physical activity, especially aerobic exercise, can help you fall asleep faster and make your sleep more restful. Don’t exercise within three hours of your bedtime, however. Exercising right before bed may make getting to sleep more difficult.

Make your bedroom cool, dark, quiet and comfortable. Create a room that’s ideal for sleeping. Adjust the lighting, temperature, humidity and noise level to your preferences. Use blackout curtains, eye covers, earplugs, extra blankets, a fan, or other devices to create an environment that suits your needs.

Sleep primarily at night. Daytime naps may steal hours from nighttime slumber. Limit daytime sleep to about a half-hour and make it during mid-afternoon. If you work nights, keep your window coverings closed so that sunlight, which adjusts the body’s internal clock, doesn’t interrupt your sleep. If you have a day job and sleep at night, but still have trouble waking up, leave the window coverings open and let the sunlight help wake you up.

Choose a comfortable mattress and pillow. Features of a good bed are subjective and differ for each person. But make sure you have a bed that’s comfortable. If you share your bed, make sure there’s enough room for two. Children and pets are often disruptive, so you may need to set limits on how often they sleep in bed with you.

Start a relaxing bedtime routine. Do the same things each night to tell your body it’s time to wind down. This may include taking a warm bath or shower, reading a book, or listening to soothing music. Relaxing activities done with lowered lights can help ease the transition between wakefulness and sleepiness.

Go to bed when you’re tired and turn out the lights. If you don’t fall asleep within 15 to 20 minutes, get up and do something else. Go back to bed when you’re tired. Don’t agonize over falling sleep. The stress will only prevent sleep.

Use sleeping pills only as a last resort. Check with your doctor before taking any sleep medications. He or she can make sure the pills won’t interact with your other medications or with an existing medical condition. Your doctor can also help you determine the best dosage. If you do take a sleep medication, reduce the dosage gradually when you want to quit, and never mix alcohol and sleeping pills. If you feel sleepy or dizzy during the day, talk to your doctor about changing the dosage or discounting the pills.

If you’re having problems sleeping more than three times a week for a month’s time, see your doctor. You could have a sleep disorder, such as obstructive sleep apnea or restless legs syndrome. Identifying and treating the cause of your sleep disturbance can help get you back on the road to a good night’s sleep.

Questions for Discussion:
1. How many hours do you sleep every night? What time do you usually go to bed?
2. Do you consider yourself to be a “night owl” or an “early bird”? Explain.
3. What activities do you like to do during the day? At night?
4. Do you ever have trouble going to sleep at night? If so, what do you do about it?
5. Do you like to take naps during day? Is it a common practice in your home country? In Singapore?
6. Is it possible to sleep too much? What will be the effect of doing that?
7. Have you ever worked night shift? Explain your lifestyle when you did.
8. What will happen to someone who does not get enough sleep for a long time?
9. Do you dream when you sleep? Tell about a dream you have had. Can you think of a traditional way from your culture to make yourself sleepy?

I’ve almost forget to mention my god sister who is my cousin. Congratulation to her that she become Zijin Middle school’s student. And she become our god sister last Chinese New Year. I try to make it as routine to call home every week, it’s bad manner when you need to be reminded that it’s time to make a home call. I’m also wondering whether it is a good idea to spend the time with them at home at least these years. For God’s sake, you know I can’t make it.

Coyote and Woodpecker

In the forest, there was a great old hollow tree, and Woodpecker and his family lived there. One day, as Coyote was walking, he met Woodpecker.

‘How are you today, my friend?’ said Coyote.
‘Very well, thank you,’ replied Woodpecker. ‘And how are you?’
They talked together for a while. Then Coyote said, ‘Friend Woodpecker, bring your wife and children tonight and join my family for supper.’
‘Thank you, friend Coyote,’ said Woodpecker, ‘We will gladly come.’

That evening, Woodpecker and his family went to the coyotes’ home. They fluttered to the ground and then, as they always do after flying, the woodpeckers stretched themselves. As they lifted their wings, the coyotes could see their pretty red and yellow feathers underneath. And as the woodpeckers ate supper, whenever they raised their wings, their bright feathers could be seen.

After the Woodpeckers had eaten, they thanked their host politely. ‘Please come to our house tomorrow for supper, friend Coyote,’ said Woodpecker. And Coyote said yes, he and his family certainly would.

After the Woodpeckers left, Coyote turned to his family and said, ‘Did you see how those woodpeckers showed off their bright red and yellow feathers? No doubt they think they are more beautiful than we are, and they want to be sure we know it. Well, we will show them that Coyotes are just as beautiful as Woodpeckers.’

The next day, Coyote made all his family work hard gathering many loads of fire wood. When evening came, he built a big fire and called his family there. He tied a burning stick to each of them, under their arms, so that the burning end pointed forward. Then he did the same to himself. ‘Now we coyotes will show those woodpeckers who has beautiful colors!’ he told his family. ‘and don’t you forget to raise your arms often, to be sure they see we are just as good as they are!’ Then the coyotes went to the woodpeckers’ house.

When they came to the hollow tree, Woodpecker welcomed them and invited them in very politely. Together, the woodpecker family and coyote family sat down to supper. As the ate, the coyotes kept raising their arms to show the bright fire underneath. But suddenly one of Coyote’s sons yelled, ‘Ayee! My fire is burning me, papa!’
‘Hush!’ said Coyote, ‘Don’t give us away.
‘Ah!’ sighed one of Coyote’s daughters, ‘My fire is out!’ This was too much for Coyote, and he scolded her.

Then Woodpecker spoke. ‘Tell me, Friend Coyote,’ he said, ‘why is it that your colors are bright red and yellow at first but later become ash gray?’
‘Oh, that,’ said Coyote, smiling pleasantly although he was very angry inside. ‘That is the best thing about our colors, for they do not stay the same – as other people’s do – but turn many shades.’ Coyote made an excuse so that he and his family could leave, for they were all smarting from their burns.

After they left, Woodpecker gathered his family around and said, ‘Now, my children, you have seen that Coyote has tried to do. Never pretend to be what you are not. Always be just what you really are, and never try to act better than another, and you will never need to put on false colors.’

Questions for discussion:
1. Do you think Coyote really felt happier at the end of the story?
2. Why do you think some people try to pretend to be something they aren’t? Do you think they really believe they are better than other people?
3. Have you ever heard of the expression ‘keeping up with the Jones’s'? What does it mean? Do you know anyone who acts like that?
4. Some people buy branded goods or expensive items in order to show off to others. Can you think of any examples?

这段时间看了一些电影和电视剧。上上个周末花了两天将[24]第七季看完，情节还是那么丝丝入扣，但是矛盾方面一直缠绕在是否应该逼供这个点上。Jack Bauer还是那么帅，而且看到CTU的原班人马更加热血沸腾，不过没有看应该是CTU被袭击的第六季。另外追了几集笑来老师推荐的[绝命毒师(Breaking Bad)]，暂时没有什么感觉，不好不坏。

最后推荐一首歌，来自[狮子王]的Be Prepared:

7 Baha’i leaders who are being imprisoned in Iran

Elika Mahony在几个月前为在伊朗的7个巴哈伊信徒被捕作了一首“Persecution”，现在将朋友Penny制作的视频发布在Youtube上：

Persecution – Dedicated to the Baha’is in Iran

Persecution

They dedicated their lives to a noble purpose

Innocent victims, imprisoned for their beliefs

Their suffering knew no bounds, Only comforted by prayerful sounds

Why do you think you can stop the world from knowing, Prevent the truth from showing, You can’t block the sun from shining

Their children suffer the same fate, Subjected to an endless hate

Denied basic human rights, Yet guided by a greater light

Pressured to recant their faith, Their Holy Places destroyed,

Their graves unearthed, no place to bury their dead,

Denied the right to education, Riddled with false accusations

You can burn their homes but not their spirits, Seize their land but not their souls

James & Carole家的英语角继续进行中，人数有上升的趋势，不过这只是开始而已，人数太多对现有的参与者反而不是太好，希望大家熟络后会让本来不太敢开口说话的朋友有表现自己的勇气。这期的主题是“获得好的睡眠质量的建议”，要提供自己的英语水平还是要靠自己，以及正确的学习方法，比如李笑来老师的English in Use。

Don’t eat or drink large amounts before bedtime. Eat a light dinner about two hours before sleeping. If you’re prone to heartburn, avoid spicy or fatty foods, which can make your heartburn flare and prevent a restful sleep. Also, limit how much you drink before bed. Too much liquid can cause you to wake up repeatedly during the night for trips to the bathroom.

Avoid nicotine, caffeine and alcohol in the evening. These are stimulants that can keep you awake. Smokers often experience withdrawal symptoms at night, and smoking in bed is dangerous. Avoid caffeine for eight hours before your planned bedtime. Your body doesn’t store caffeine, but it takes many hours to eliminate the stimulant and its effects. And although often believed to be a sedative, alcohol actually disrupts sleep.

Exercise regularly. Regular physical activity, especially aerobic exercise, can help you fall asleep faster and make your sleep more restful. Don’t exercise within three hours of your bedtime, however. Exercising right before bed may make getting to sleep more difficult.

Make your bedroom cool, dark, quiet and comfortable. Create a room that’s ideal for sleeping. Adjust the lighting, temperature, humidity and noise level to your preferences. Use blackout curtains, eye covers, earplugs, extra blankets, a fan, or other devices to create an environment that suits your needs.

Sleep primarily at night. Daytime naps may steal hours form nighttime slumber. Limit daytime sleep to about a half-hour and make it during mid-afternoon. If you work nights, keep your window covering closed so that sunlight, which adjusts the body’s internal clock, doesn’t interrupt your sleep. If you have a day job and sleep at night, but still have trouble waking up, leave the window coverings open and let the sunlight help wake you up.

Choose a comfortable mattress and pillow. Features of a good bed are subjective and differ for each person. But make sure you have a bed that’s comfortable. If you share your bed, make sure there’s enough room for two. Children and pets are often disruptive, so you may need to set limits on how often they sleep in bed with you.

Start a relaxing bedtime routine. Do the same things each night to tell your body it’s time to wind down. This may include taking a warm bath or shower, reading a book, or listening to soothing music. Relaxing activities done with lowered lights can help ease the transition between wakefulness and sleepiness.

Go to bed when you’re tired and turn out the lights. If you don’t fall asleep within 15 to 20 minutes, get up and do something else. Go back to bed when you’re tired. Don’t agonize over falling asleep. The stress will only prevent sleep.

Use sleeping pills only as a last resort. Check with your doctor before taking any sleep medications. He or she can make sure the pills won’t interact with your other medications or with an existing medical condition. Your doctor can also help you determine the best dosage. If you do take a sleep medication, reduce the dosage gradually when you want to quit, and never mix alcohol and sleeping pills. If you feel sleepy or dizzy during the day, talk to your doctor about changing the dosage or discontinuing the pills.

If you’re having problems sleeping more than three times a week for a month’s time, see your doctor. You could have a sleep disorder, such as obstructive sleep apnea or restless legs syndrome. Identifying and treating the cause of your sleep disturbance can help get you back on the road to a good night’s sleep.

适合自己的就是最好的。

人生的味道 – May 12, 2009

水自流 — Tue, 12 May 2009 06:10:41 +0000

刚刚听到香港第一电台播出林志炫的《时间的味道》，然后就上来写下这句话。无它，当初很喜欢这张专辑，也超喜欢这首歌。

林志炫 – 时间的味道

时间的味道
歌手:林志炫专辑:绝对收藏
詞：易家揚曲：洪偉傑

某年某月某一秒
整個世界忽然停了格回到
第一副棒球手套
我的初戀女孩養的貓
雜貨店裡尋寶
總在期待的色彩
爸爸的花領帶
如今感概童年的自在
再也回不來
回憶是人生的第一張電影票
愛情是心中的一些驚嘆號
年齡是真相的一把拆信刀
連時間也有味道
走回以前的學校
小孩們在操場上奔跑歡笑
找到彈珠和書包
可是回到童年的隧道再也找不到

除了想找到童年的隧道，更加迫切的是找到未来的隧道。Then发现了这个网站：Life Sucks。

敢问路在何方 – Apr 05, 2009

水自流 — Sun, 05 Apr 2009 16:51:31 +0000

可能从来没有在这么大范围内赋予清明节该有的意义，汶川地震灾区的亡灵也在幸存的人心中获得了安慰。人生的不同在于有准备和没有。Book 3课程的暂停取得了Margaret和Teck Cheng的大力支持和理解，仍旧在犹豫这样的决定是否合理和正确，但是尝试了之后才知道，希望大家不会因为这样而生分。今天大大的睡了好几觉，有一种惘然，然后用睡觉去逃避。推荐两篇文章：女人宝典和男人准则，这类的文章有一片倒的形式，附带上第二篇只是为了平衡一下第一篇的份量，我们相信，男女就像鸟儿的两只翅膀，只有对等平等了，才能够遨游太空，展翅高飞。LN说以前没有在blog上提到她，这也是事实，但是过去的已经过去了，文不如其人的现象比比皆是，也就没有什么好强求的了。来到这里以后，有点类似于过着循环的生活，时间就那么多，还敢去投资么？不如抓紧提高要赖以生存的f-cking English好点。也有几件事情一直计划着去回复，即回复邮件而已，但老是拖着。下面给出自以为是de年度照片：

先附上David“回顾”在book 1和2遇到的一些古文，课程的暂停也赋予了大家重新回头来看看之前读到的许多摘录：

1.兼爱，尚贤，非攻
这六字真言是墨家学派的基本观点。
所谓“兼爱”是指不具有偏袒性的博爱，扶持弱小，捍卫正义。爱世间的一切事物。
所谓“尚贤”是指崇尚向有知识的人学习，尊重圣贤，尊重老师。取人之长，补己之短。
所谓“非攻”是指不主动出击，不因为小事而仇恨对方，捍卫和平，世界统一。

2.积土成山，风雨兴焉，积水成渊，蛟龙生焉。积善成德，而神明自得，圣心备焉。
这是出自荀子《劝学》里的一句话。
意思是：堆积泥土，垒成高山，风雨就从那里产生；汇聚水流，成为深潭，蛟龙就在里面出现。积累善行，养成良好的品德，就可以达到很高的精神境界，灵性就能得到发展，圣人的思想也就具备了。

3.故不积跬步，无以至千里；不积小流，无以成江海。骐骥一跃，不能十步；驽马十驾，功在不舍。
这也是出自荀子的《劝学》
意思是：所以不积累一步半步的行程，就没有办法达到千里之远；不积累细小的流水，就没有办法汇成江河大海。骏马一跨跃，也不足十步远；劣马拉车走十天，也能走得很远，它的成功就在于不停地走。
以上这两句就告诉我们做事要有恒心，不要轻易放弃。汪洋大海之所以壮观，是因为每一滴水汇聚而成。还有就是，不断地做善事，养成好的品行，才能成为品德高尚的人。

4.天时不如地利，地利不如人和。
意思是说：有利的时机和气候不如有利的地势，有利的地势不如人的齐心协力。
这句话告诉我们人与人之间要团结，就像巴哈欧拉说的一样，齐心协力，以和为贵。

5.天降大任于斯人也，必先苦其心志，劳其筋骨，饿其体肤，空乏其身，行指乱其所为，所以动心忍性,曾益其所不能。
这句话出自孟子的名篇《生于忧患，死于安乐》
这句话是在中国古典文学中很经典的一句格言，是每个中国人都一个该知道的。
意思是：上天将要降临重大责任在这样的人身上，一定要先使他的内心痛苦，使他的筋骨劳累，使他经受饥饿之苦，使他受贫困之苦，使他做事不顺，总不如意，通过那些来使他的内心惊动，使他的性格坚强起来，增加他不具备的才能。
希望大家能够记住这句话，用它来自勉。

6.君子坦荡荡，小人常戚戚
这句话是孔子说得
意思是：正人君子做事光明磊落，心胸宽广。小人做事常常抱怨，每天忧愁。

7.天生我材必有用
这句话出自唐朝诗人李白
意思是说：我们每一个人从一生出来就是对社会，对人类有用的栋梁之才。所以我们遇到困难和失落的时候，不要抱怨人情冷漠，社会不公，自己没用，要时时刻刻坚信着“天生我材必有用”。

说回上面的那张照片，是去Cave Temple的上山途中胡乱的拍迎面而来的学生，这张抓拍的照片可以说是我按下一千多次快门中最喜欢的一个，没有之一哦。哦，对了，还没有好好的看上面的邮件就把它们贴出来，因为快要睡觉了。

Happy Naw Ruz – 1st day of Baha, 166 Vahhab

水自流 — Sat, 21 Mar 2009 01:58:38 +0000

新年快乐。

‘… the new day hath dawned — awaken the sleeping ones! Thanks be to God, you are the beloved of the universe that love the whole world. Praise be to God your affection is for all, you are the enemies of none, lovers of humanity, a precious mine for the souls…Let us listen to a symphony which will confer life on man; then we can obtain universal results; then we shall receive a new spirit; then we shall become illumined. Let us investigate a song which is above all songs; one which will develop the spirit and produce harmony and exhilaration, unfolding the inner potentialities of life.’
(Abdu’l-Baha, Divine Philosphy)

弟弟的寻找工作旅程就剩下最后一个槛了。前段时间，家里遇窃，不过只是小小的钱财损失，但却敲响了妹妹年纪越来越大的“警钟”，希望她能够不用违背自己原则的情况下钻牛角尖，好让老爸老妈爷爷奶奶放心。今天开始可以像往常一样随便吃东西喝水，当然相关的需求估计也会纷至沓来。在这个斋月，稍微调整了以后的一些取舍，估计对时间的利用更加感到紧迫性，将时间放到比较紧要之处是首选。同时也要让自己的耳朵长出茧来的坚持下去，伟大领袖毛主席教导我们，很胜利就在于再努力一下的坚持之中。

十一月十八

水自流 — Mon, 15 Dec 2008 15:51:25 +0000

经由妈妈提醒才知道今天是阿公的生日，连忙问阿公有没有吃鸡蛋，得知他昨天钓了两条鱼作为给自己的生日礼物，只好叫阿婆明天补回两个鸡蛋给他。今年的生日不算是‘大生日’，根据农村的习俗。阿公问起这边的天气是不是下雨了，就如以前问起合肥和中山的天气一样，“能看到全世界的天气呢”，而我从来不会去专门看家乡的天气和温度情况，只会在电话里面问是不是冷了啊，是不是又热了啊之类比较没有做好功课的话。难道关爱真的只有从上到下多一点？嗯，这比较符合熵的定律 — 能说出这样的话真该抽。除了‘天气’这个关键词，还有的是‘阿扁’，‘就业’和‘安全’。弟弟今年大四，正在为工作而到处奔波，可怜的是我在岸这边悠然地‘隔岸观火’。能做的是重复一下根本不用动到肌肉的‘面包会有的，黄油会有的，房子会有的，妞会有的。。。’

亲戚的情况正在好转，不失为经济寒冬的一个亮点。但是仍然需要了解尽可能多的信息来源，才能做出准确的判断。Phuong会在24日回去越南，他的学业已经结束，昨天由于太懒了没有为他送送行，不过应该还是有机会参加另外一个送行会的。没有了他的激情和感染力，一些活动会少了一些互动力哟。YHB要搬到学生公寓去住，因为那里可以跟来自不同国家的学生锻炼一下英语，而且也找到一份会计兼职，这就要恭喜一下了，毕竟有机会熟悉这边的法规和获得会计的实战经验。

说回自己，这个周末过得很窝囊，靠几部电影‘艰难’度过，有隔离自己的倾向。加强锻炼，早点睡觉，以此为鉴。

晚安。

拨通了已经有些生疏的号码，听来的却是这么沉重的消息，幸好正在康复中，而且前景明朗，应该没有多少大碍。事情已经差不多过去两个月，家人的消息封锁还是满有成效的，只是觉得不太应该这样不让我知道。但另一位远房亲属在前两天遭遇厄运，现在仍然在重监护室观察，前途未卜。

不要有那么多借口也不要那么懒惰，只是打个电话而已，多联系，或许就不会发生这些事情。或许这只是自己的愿望而已。

主，我的上帝啊！透过您的圣名，将您的至美，妥善地安置在您圣道的宝座上。经由您的圣名，改造万物，集合万物，谴责万物，赏赐万物，保护万物并扶养万物。我奉此圣名看护这女仆，她已奔向您的庇护，并寻求您那显圣者的庇荫，她已将她全部的信心交托与您。

我的上帝啊！她患了病，但已进入您医治的树荫；她百受折磨，但已奔向您庇护之城；她染病在身，故寻求您恩惠的泉源；她异常烦忧，故急欲达到您宁静之泉；她身负罪恶，但已面向您宽恕的殿堂。

我的上帝，我的钟爱者啊！求您以您的威权和慈爱，以您的安慰和医治作为她身上的衣裳，并使她畅饮您的慈悲与恩惠。此外，求您保护她！脱离一切折磨和烦恼，疼痛和疾病，并使她远离一切您所不悦的事。

您真确是至高无上的。诚然！您是神医，一切满足者，保护者，永恒宽恕者，最为慈悲者。

树欲静而风不止 – 11,11,2008

水自流 — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 15:49:43 +0000

不远处，同事还在努力完成今天最后一辆车的喷漆任务。许巍的“爱如少年”多了许多轻快的元素，没有以前那种要将整个世界装在自己心的感觉。刚刚不久将系统重新装了一遍，离上次的距离已经如梦幻般不能想起点滴步骤。原因很简单，就是要将下载的音乐解压缩时不停的提示系统盘空间不够，找了半天没有看出那里的文件占用的如此大的地方，再加上在移动硬盘上成功装上了Ubuntu，剩下的就是将电脑上的空间重新空出来只给XP用啦。关于将Ubuntu搬到移动硬盘上，无他方法，按照这个帖子就可以，已经在公司的不同版本不同年代的机器上测试通过。

同学的儿子确实可以去打酱油了，或者还可以在缺脚的时候凑齐人数打打麻将。而地球的另一端，我却依然将一个人的身影进行到保留着改变的权利的道路上。在这个看似有点凄凉有点落寞的时刻，其实是让自己泡在这种貌似从心底发出的气氛中去骗取自己心灵的一滴眼泪，实际情况是洗澡的时候突然想到离圣道似乎越来越远了。这个周末要交出一份比较满意的祈祷会祷文和相对应的背景音乐的大纲，要让参与者能够感受到圣言的力量，这也是为什么这么急于进购移动硬盘的原因。问题是卡在这里两天了，没有太多的素材，如何去配合也是找不到河里的石头。

各位同仁，今年的光棍圣日很快就靠近尾声了，欢迎大家仍然能够肩并肩面对自己道路独一的身影，但是这并不是我们的终极目标。希望明年这个时候有很多同仁能够已经摆脱命运的摆布，请尽管向前走，去抓取属于自己的那一份世俗或者唯一的幸福。也请放心，我们的同盟永远不会消亡，因为将会有新的血液加入我们，不管他们愿意以否。在下前两天看完了黑塞的《玻璃球游戏》，对里面主人公永不休止的向下一个新的“生命”寻找印象深刻。因此，当听到内心深处对你的呼唤时，不要犹豫，全体成员的祝福会永远伴随着你。

“他确实离开了世俗生活，抛弃了自己的房屋财产，远离了大城市及其五光十色的感官享乐，然而他仍旧必须携带着自己的肉体同行，因而他无法摆脱潜藏于自己肉体与灵魂中的一切本能冲动，它们往往陷入苦恼和诱惑而无法自拔。

他首先与自己的肉体进行斗争，待它严厉苛刻，让它受酷热和严寒，饥饿和干渴的煎熬，让它满是创伤和老茧，直至逐渐凋萎和干枯。然而即使在这个苦行僧的干枯皮囊中，老亚当仍然难以意料地纠缠他，折磨他，用愚昧的贪婪、欲望、梦幻和空想引诱他。是的，我们都早已知道，魔鬼最愿意光顾那些遁世和忏悔的人。。。。。。然而在继续发展过程中，事实又向他显示，就连灵魂本身也隶属于世俗人类，也能够变化成为诱惑和陷阱。”

My God, Whom I worship and adore! I bear witness unto Thy unity and Thy oneness, and acknowledge Thy gifts, both in the past and in the present. Thou art the All-Bountiful, the overflowing showers of Whose mercy have rained down upon high and low alike, and the splendors of Whose grace have been shed over both the obedient and the rebellious.

O God of mercy, before Whose door the quintessence of mercy hath bowed down, and round the sanctuary of Whose Cause loving kindness, in its inmost spirit, hath circled, we beseech Thee, entreating Thine ancient grace, and seeking Thy present favor, that Thou mayest have mercy upon all who are the manifestations of the world of being, and deny them not the outpourings of Thy grace in Thy days.

All are but poor and needy, and Thou, verily, art the All-Possessing, the All-Subduing, the All-Powerful.

– — Bahá’u'lláh

Thanks a lot for Tech Cheng, Ming Hwee, David’s accompanies. I was really surprised when I saw Tech Cheng was holding the cake before we start the Ruhi Book two. Sophia, thank you for your concerns. And thanks for Red’s phone call. Thanks for my family’s support all these years. I reckon this is my first birthday cake, well, I can’t remember, but it seems to be true.

Update: And this would be the second one which I should give my appreciation to dear Sophia. You did give up your precious time to gave me a lovely party. I’ll treasure those wonderful moment times. Thanks for Evelyn, Jack’s greetings also.

Update: The third one. Well, how many times I would said “I was surprised to heard the song rising from beside…”. But I was surprised they prepared the birthday cake for me when we were having monthly “Friday class” with Margaret, Teck Cheng, Hellen, Uncle and Amy this evening. All I have to say it’s my treasure to know you guys.

All the best.
