问青天

太阳下山之前烘了烘云朵。微风吹来,下了两天也雨似乎故意暂停。

月圆了,中秋了吗?

每天的路

除了脚,路也要用心走。

家庭主妇

爸爸的姐妹,她们都是普通的女人——那种你在街上到处都会见到的女人。她们谈女人的话题、穿auntie的衣服。她们好像个个女人那样大笑、好像个个女人那样煮饭、扫地、洗衣。

新年到了,她们两姐妹就会穿上红通通的衣服。

那小小家里播放的老歌,不知谁唱不知什么名。我一面听一面看着同辈的时尚衣着,回忆起儿时。

当你大了知道了应该帮忙,厨房却已容不下你的身躯。
当她们当你是自己儿子那样,叫你吃饭时,你便突然觉得她们并不一般。

D for diamond, D for death

Since Kimberly Process hit the world in 2003, the number of conflict diamonds have been reduced from 4% to 1%, but I think the knowledge about diamond mining is still poor in Malaysia.

To appreciate and learn about diamonds, let's begin with two clips:

Human greed makes even buying wedding ring a difficult task (set aside money). We have to stop and think and double-check before purchasing something that signifies love, happiness and promise - to make sure nobody suffers from love, happiness and promise. Although now some of the diamond trades fund African education and provide jobs (so you're welcome to spend money on legal diamonds!), black markets still exist.

Statistics are often superficial. To ensure that you do not trade marriage or happiness with others' suffering, I reckon the best way is to buy no diamond. After all, do you really need a piece of mineral to make promise?

For more, visit DiamondFacts.org and UN Conflict Diamonds; or watch Blood Diamond (2006).

树的精神

寄人篱下,学的就是解决问题和适应环境。
问题在眼前、别人不配合,在国外很多时候都是以回避解决。不晓得是因肤色而感自卑,还是自己的懦弱,还是前人的传统劝告,还是……总之,现在没有人会像周润发那样在《秋天的童话》(1987)里面那样搬马劈人了。也许,时代真的如王家卫电影里不断提到的那样了——
那些消逝了的岁月,仿佛隔着一块,积着灰尘的玻璃,看的到,抓不着。

尸体和种子

蜥蜴的死亡带来苍生*。

种子的生命带来花朵的凋谢。
*苍蝇的生命,哈哈。
