1. I got a wonderful greeting card from a friend SC in Malaysia.
Wishing my greeting be forwarded to evrey friend who is viewing this blog.
A Walk to Remember

My Reading Digest about the book :
p.195
Jamie didn't look as depressed as I thought she would. But then again, she'd been living with this for seven months already. She and Hegbert had been the only ones to know, and neither of them had trusted even me. I was hurt by that and frightened at the same time.
"I'd made a decision," she explained to me, "that it would be better if I told no one, and I asked my father to do the same. You saw how people were after the services today. No one would even look me in the eye. If you had only a few months left to die, is that what you would want?"
I knew she was right, but it didn't make it any easier. I was, for the first time in my life, completely and utterly at a loss.
......
p.199
......
"Aren't you frightened?"
Somehow I expected her to say no, to say something wise like a grown-up would, or to explain to me that we can't presume to understand the Lord's plan.
She looked away. "Yes," she finally said, "I'm frightened all the time."
"Then why don't you act like it?"
"I do, I just do it in private."
"Because you don't trust me?"
"No," she said, "because I know you're frightened, too."
......
Thanks for introducing the wonderful novel !!

今天中午聽到的歌...
如果有问题:我的男朋友是谁?答案是:没有~!
女孩你听着~!
你的話我曉得
無論你說得多麼溫和
某一些難解的隔閡
把愛傷害了那多不值得
沒什麼好怪的
我已經乏力繼續拉扯
沒有誰非愛誰不可
就算變心了也非罪不可赦
她只是最最無辜的第三者
就算她消失此刻 告訴我能得回什麼呢
責怪她又憑什麼呢
她只是無意闖入的第三者
我們之間的困難 在她出現之前就有了
雖然我憤怒但是我明白的
把過錯讓她去背著 那是不對的
Hey女孩你聽著
所有愛情都有競爭者
我不妒忌你們快樂
雖然我人生因此有曲折
他還是不錯的
我們的選擇不是巧合
你用青春大膽假設
我去將失去活成一種獲得

Pocahontas
Colour of the wind - Vanessa williams
You think I'm an ignorant savage
And you've been so many places
I guess it must be so
But still I cannot see
If the savage one is me
How can there be so much that you don't know?
You don't know ...
You think you own whatever land you land on
The Earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew you never knew
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sunsweet berries of the Earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once, never wonder what they're worth
The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
The heron and the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends
How high will the sycamore grow?
If you cut it down, then you'll never know
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or copper skinned
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountains
We need to paint with all the colors of the wind
You can own the Earth and still
All you'll own is Earth until
You can paint with all the colors of the wind
Listen With Your Heart
If I Never Knew You
If I Never Knew You
From: Pocahontas
Music: Alan Menken
Lyrics: Stephen Schwartz
Performed by: Jon Secada & Shanice
[Male Singer]
If I never knew you
If I never felt this love
I would have no inkling of
How precious life can be
And if I never held you
I would never have a clue
How at last I'd find in you
The missing part of me
In this world so full of fear
Full of rage and lies
I can see the truth so clear
In your eyes
So dry your eyes
And I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Lost forever
If I never knew you
[Female Singer]
I thought our love would be so beautiful
Somehow we made the whole world bright
I never knew that fear and hate could be so strong
All they'd leave us where these whispers in the night
But still my heart is singing
We were right
[Female Singer]
If I never knew you
If I never knew this love
I would have no inkling of
How precious life can be
[Male Singer]
There's no moment I regret
Since the moment that we met
If our time has gone too fast
I've lived at last...
[Male Singer]
And I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Empty as the sky
[Female Singer]
Never knowing why
[Both]
Lost forever
If I never knew you

AZUR ET ASMAR 一千零二夜

for July 22, 2008
Last Saturday we had a family activity. That is to join a free movie festival which was held in the old Movie Museum in the downtown of Hsin Chu City. There are a lot of free movies from different countries during the one-month-long festival. We got there by a city bus. It is fun , because quite a long time we didn't take a bus the whole family. The movie we watch is Azur et Asmar. It is a special animation movie with good theme. My children like it very much. We are all happy in viewing such a colorful and delicate movie. At the end of movie, the audiences applauded the movie spontaneously. :-)

All I Ask of You
Original Entry on Yahoo360
for July 31, 2008
from Phantom of the Opera
All I ask of you
No more talk of darkness
Forget these wide-eyed fears
I'm here, nothing can harm you
My words will warm and calm you
Let me be your freedom
Let daylight dry your tears
I'm here, with you, beside you
To guard you and to guide you
Say you love me every waking moment
Turn my head with talk of summertime
Say you need me with you now and always
Promise me that all you say is true
That's all I ask of you
Let me be your shelter
Let me be your light
You're safe, no one will find you
Your fears are far behind you
All I want is freedom
A world with no more night
And you always beside me
To hold me and to hide me
Then say you'll share with me one love one lifetime
Let me lead you from your solitude
Say you need me with you here, beside you
Anywhere you go, let me go too
Christine, that's all ask of you
Say you'll share with me one love one lifetime
Say the word, and I will follow you
Share each day with me each night, each morning
Say you love me, You know I do
Love me ...
That's all I ask of you ---
Anywhere you go
Let me go too
Love me
That's all I ask
of you ---
Reprise

I Dont Know How To Love Him
from Jesus Christ Superstar
I don't know how to love Him
Helen Reddy
I don't know how to love him
What to do, how to move him
I've been changed, yes really changed
In these past few days
When I've seen myself
I seem like someone else
I don't know how to take this
I don't see why he moved me
He's a man, he just a man
And I've had so many men before in very many ways
He's just one more
Should I bring him down
Should I scream and shout
Should I speak of love
Let my feeling out
I never thought I'd come to this
What's it all about
Don't you think it's rather funny
I should be in this position
I'm the one who's always been so calm so cool
No lover's fool, running every show
He scares me so
I never thought I'd come to this
What's it all about
Yet if he said he loved me
I'd be lost, I'd be frightened
I couldn't cope, just couldn't cope
I'd turn my head, I'd back away
I wouldn't want to know
He scares me so
I want him so
I love him so

My first sight of Cape No.7

Original Entry for August 10, 2008 on Yahoo360
好特別的主題, 昨天和岱娜與仲為第一次去竹北六家的新瓦屋要看【九降風】, 結果不期地看到這部【海角七號】的首映會, 是戶外露天播放的. 其內容切合台灣現代的生活, 還有關於台灣以往的一些事. 台日跨國的愛情主題, 也很令人印象深刻. 許多人沒板凳坐的, 就直接坐在地上. 我們3位就是坐在地上的. 可以說整場電影沒有大人或小孩中途離席的. 放映結束後, 看到年輕的38歲導演魏德聖為一群圍著他的觀眾簽名海報與卡片, 著實佩服他的理想與執著. 預祝此片8/22全台上映成功!

More Than I Can Say
This looks like a "Disco song" about 30 years ago when I was a child. I am happy to listen this old and familiar song again in the morning.
More than I can say Leo Sayer
*Oh oh yea yea
I love you more than I can say
I'll love you twice as much tomorrow
Oh love you more than I can say
Oh oh yea yea
I miss you every single day
Why must my life be filled with sorrow
Oh love you more than I can say
Don't you know I need you so
Tell me please I gotta know
Do you mean to make me cry
Am I just another guy(*)
愛你在心口難開 李歐塞爾
哦~~耶~
我愛你在心口難開
我會愛你兩遍如同無數個明日
我愛你在心口難開
哦~~耶~
我每一天都想著你
我的人生為何必須充滿憂傷
我愛你在心口難開
難道你不知道我是如此需要你
請告訴我,我真的很想知道
你真的要使我哭泣?
難道我只是另一個追求者?

噢噢耶耶 愛你在心口難開
我不知應該說些什麼 噢噢 愛你在心口難開
噢噢耶耶 一天見不到你來
就好像身邊少了什麼 噢噢 愛你在心口難開
你可知道我在愛你 怎麼對我不理睬
請你輕輕告訴我 不要叫我多疑猜
噢噢耶耶 我愛你在心口難開
我不知應該說些什麼 噢噢 愛你在心口難開
我想你在心口難開 噢噢 愛你在心口難開
我想你在心口難開 噢噢 愛你在心口難開

馬侃舊愛 巴西77歲老婦爆紅
年輕時當過模特兒和芭蕾舞者的巴西77歲老婦,因為半個多世紀前和美國共和黨總統候選人馬侃的舊情,意外成為新聞人物。
馬侃在他1999年出版的回憶錄中,提到1957年,他服役的軍艦停靠里約熱內盧的時候,認識了一個巴西模特兒,書裡面沒有提到模特兒的名字,不過神通廣大的媒體找出了那個令年輕時的馬侃著迷的女子,77歲的(泰瑟莉亞)就這麼一夕爆紅。
(泰瑟莉亞)透露,她所認識的馬侃很浪漫,而且吻功一流。
一個老鄰居說,泰瑟莉亞常說她有一個很顯赫的情人,不過她從來沒有透露那是誰。馬侃和泰瑟莉亞的戀情很短暫,雖然後來他曾經回里約探訪過泰瑟莉亞,不過年輕人耐性和專注力都非常有限,兩人的戀情無疾而終。

對傳教士有好感
我想你對傳教士有好感吧!這是很正常的事。
當年(10年前),我也是對傳教士有好感,所以我接受了他的邀請,認識福音。直到現在,我和我的福音長老還偶有連絡. 2000年時,我還和家人一起到美國拜訪他,也認識了他所有的家人。我常覺得,我會有這麼遠的朋友,可以讓我擴展我的眼界,應該也是福音所給我的生活帶來的祝福之一吧。
我猜想,如你接觸傳教士6年了,應該也認識不少教友,對教會的聚會與生活方式應該多少有所了解了。
傳教士到台灣來傳教已經有50多年了,因為這因素,應該也在他們完成傳教任務後,促成不少異國婚戀。我所認識的,就有不少對。約7~8年前,來台灣台中任傳道部會長的金惠積會長(金會長本身是美國夏威夷人),他所娶的太太就是我們花蓮的阿美族人,金姊妹是在他年輕時到台灣傳教時所認識的教會姊妹,這成功的異國婚姻是最為我們中區的教友們所津津樂道的事。
但傳教士在傳教期間,是不會追求異性朋友的,這可能是有所規定. 所以如果你想認識傳教士,並想進一步交往的話,我可以個人給幾個意見,就怕你不中意聽...(笑)
1. 認識傳教士所帶來的福音,並真心尋求對福音的見證
這是傳教士一天24小時所關心的事,是他們意願出來傳教的目的。其實這也是你個人的福祇所在。傳教士就是在尋找這樣對福音想進一步了解的人。至於女孩接觸福音的目的是不是在找機會接近?傳教士或許彼此不會去說或討論,但我相信他們的內心會很明白。
經文上說: 「你們要先求他的國,他的義。這些東西都要加給你們了。」(太6:33) 要不要以此試試看是否有效呢?
2. 留下聯絡的方式,以教友的身份大方的拜訪他們
這是金姐妹和金會長的方式吧!其實不只他們,我知道的還有其他人。因為傳教其間不談男女感情,當然得等到傳教結束返鄉後,就我所知,大部份的傳教士結束傳教後,都會有結婚的渴望。以按照經文的方式,組織美滿的家庭。而教會的領袖也是經常這樣的勉勵他們的。如果你和傳教士已經是朋友了,那麼以教友或朋友的身份,彼此留下連絡的方式並在以後互訪,其實是很正常的事。我相信,你所建立的友誼,將會為你開啟機會的大門的。
我沒有回答到你的心情,倒是給你務實的建議,似乎文不對題。但是,希望對你能有所助益。
.
傳教士姊妹
我是男生,我很喜歡傳教士姊妹呀!
在我的感覺,一個懂得追求神的教導並予以實踐的女子,是最具吸引力的女生. 而傳教士姊妹正是在這條路上努力的人。
箴言31:26~30上論及敬畏耶和華的婦女時說:「他開口就發智慧,他舌上有仁慈的法則。他觀察家務,並不吃閒飯. 他的兒女起來稱他有福,他的丈夫也稱讚。他說: 才德的女子很多,惟獨你超過一切。豔麗是虛假的,美容是虛浮的。惟敬畏耶和華的婦女,必得稱讚。」
我好像把年輕的傳教士姊妹說老了,說實在的,他們給人的感覺就是美,因為勤讀經文的他們給人感覺是端莊且有靈性氣質。雖然,在教會的某些場合中,我也常見到他們自然可愛與熱心服務的一面。有時甚至像孩童般的嬉鬧... 但都不傷大雅的。
P/S: 以下 youtube的影片,是他們的創意,也正是他們可愛的一面。(笑)
有關摩門傳教士
首先,傳教士在傳教(傳教士長老兩年、傳教士姊妹一年半)的期間不交男女朋友或談戀愛,應該是正確的。是不是有規定我不知道,但我知道他們不會做這事。
至於不能接異姓電話倒沒有這麼嚴重吧,只不過,有傳教士姊妹的支會裡,通常女性的慕道友就會由傳教士姊妹來接待或上課,男性的慕道友則由傳教士長老負責。這樣的安排其實對多數的慕道友是比較好的。
但還是有例外的,因為擔任傳教士的姊妹人數較少,所以並不是所有的支會都會有傳教士姊妹。在沒有傳教士姊妹的支會裡,傳教士長老則要擔負所有的慕道友的工作,他們也是會給女性的慕道友上課的。
至於你提到的「有的長老講話的語氣很溫柔很輕,溫柔到有點像講情話,他們也很樂意地回答我的問題,有的則是很嚴肅」… 請容我以一節教會中的經文來回應你,即在 "教義與聖約" 的第38章第41節中說到的:「讓你們的宣講成為警告的聲音,每個人要溫和、謙卑的向鄰人宣講。」我想,傳教士們正在很努力的想實踐經文上的這項要求。(笑)

No ordinary man
for September 09, 2008
No Ordinary Man
Jesus was no ordinary man.
But there were some who did not understand.
They saw him working miracles, but some were still deceived.
Why did they not believe?
When with few loaves and fishes the multitudes were fed;
When He showed them His pow'r to heal and even raised the dead;
When He walked upon the water and He calmed the raging sea,
Why did they not believe?
Jesus was no ordinary man.
But there were some who did not understand.
They saw him working miracles, but some were still deceived.
Why did they not believe?
When His faith filled the fishnets; gave sight unto the blind;
When they saw at His bidding even water turned to wine;
When He offered all He had to them if they would but receive,
Why did they not believe?
Jesus was no ordinary man.
The pow'r to bless and heal was in His hands.
They saw him cleanse the leper They saw him heal the lame;
They must have sensed divinity and known from whence He came,
But understanding not His cause,
They crucified the son of God,
And even then they did not understand
That Jesus was no ordinary man.

Seediq Balay
for September 13, 2008
Seediq Balay《賽德克巴萊》is the name of a Taiwanese aborigine tribe that respects the ancestor spirit, and now it is the name of a 5 min short film on the past famous battle of the aborigine tribe and the military of the foreign ruler Japan in 1930. The young director 魏德聖, who directed the successful "Cape No. 7" that sold rarely well recently, spent USD $9o,oo0 his own money to come out this wonderful short film earlier in 2004.
Hope it can be turned out into a complete movie soon.

海角七號的七封情書
*
但導演刻意巧妙的安排兩個女生的名字同樣都是"友子", 讓女主角更能身同感受另一位友子的內心感覺. 其目的也是要增加兩段故事的劇情連結力.
*
現代人的愛情觀有過度充份選擇的自由, 流行速食愛情, 甚至是一夜情. 但卻對彼此的約束力不足, 最後的選擇往往帶來空虛的結果. 反觀60年前的愛情, 他們在大時代的驅使下, 不得不離開彼此. 然而他們對愛情的思念卻深深存在心底. 兩相對照之下, 舊時代的愛情讓現代年青人有很大的省思的空間.
*
七封情書帶來劇情更多的反思的機會, 讓現代年青人去反省他們的愛情觀, 若無兩個時代的對照, 整個故事的深度就大減, 只是一個地方樂團的組成所帶來的笑果罷了. 或許, 在電影中段之前, 插入情書的口述, 一開始讓人覺得與劇情的調味並不相符合. 但是, 看過整部電影之後的回味卻是越來越有意思! 因為完全不同的兩個時空背景下, 其調味本來就會有所不同. 且60年前的故事畢竟是屬回憶下的場景, 更加具有想像的空間, 故其調味更加的不同. 然而, 我們卻看到它所發揮的影響力, 因為不同時空的兩個故事, 卻同樣發生在台灣的南部小城恆春, 且女主角還湊巧同名同姓.
*
電影的許多意境難以用文字形容出來, 有時得將自己化身為劇中的人物方能體會那感受, 試想, 如果你是那失意的男主角, 回到了故鄉恆春, 生活中突然同時出現了兩個"友子", 一個是在60年前的舊情書上的, 一個是在生活上遇到的日本女生, 你心中將會產生怎樣的聯結呢? 同樣的, 如果你是一個到陌生的國度工作的女生, 看到信中用自己的母語寫著自己名字的老舊情書, 你的內心中又會有怎樣的感動呢?
