ー場の記憶

冬至早過去了，昨夜卻吃了一碗最感人的湯圓－老板好辛苦給我準備的“燒仙草小湯圓”…幸福哪！你們說的，多好呀！我說想吃小湯圓，結果就真的如愿以償了。但我立即想到的卻是自己不管如何要求、乞求、祈求，也無法得到的… …湯圓，團圓的象征。我真正想要的，為什么始終要不到？今凌晨終于成眠，夢里是駭人的夢境，夢里脫口一句：가지마, 가지마…제발。湯圓嗎？슬퍼죠, 하지만 감동해。就像你給予的感覺一樣。

한장의 추억 – 2005-06

내 마음은 아팠어 전화기로 너를 만나면서
다시는 볼 수도 없다는 그 맘에 난 힘이 빠졌어
오랜만이었어 너와 마지막 통화한지도
내 꿈을 위한 내 모든 것들 너를 잠시 잊게했었지
너는 아름다웠었지 내가 지금까지 살아오면서
나는 몰랐어 네게 숨겨진 그 마음을
니가 행복하길 빌겠어 우리지난 날에 기억들을
너의 미래의 삶 그곳에 남겨지는 한장의 추억
지금 제 눈물을 알아?

동지冬至

I am actually recycling the following blog entry I did exactly a year ago as the winter solstice falls again on 22 Dec, coincidentally.

Winter solstice is a festival celebrated by Chinese everywhere, sometimes even considered more important than the Lunar New Year. What is so special about the day? Apparently, this is the last day [...]

Tree of life

Ueno Park, Tokyo
I like trees, and I like the men in their autumn years, an expression to represent senior men. To clarify any possible misunderstanding regarding the latter claim, I always associate the older men with my late maternal grandfather. Do you believe in affinity of some kind? Somehow, I am very much loved [...]

View from the back

I took quite a lot of photos from the back view. Admittedly, it’s the best shot I could get if I wanted to capture people in my picture and somehow, they have all turned out to be just as tender a moment as they would be when taken from the front. In fact, it’s [...]

맘 속의 별

낮에
눈으로 볼 수 없다고
별이 없는 것은
아니지.
고요히 잠든
밤에
빛을 주시니
별이 아닌가?
내 맘 속에는
대닺에도
화안하게
떠 있는
별 하나.

Rational versus Emotional

[저녁에]
日子恢復平靜，我努力生活得精力充沛。屬于你的過去似乎遙遠了，回憶卻緊抓着我不放。到底那個冒出來的記憶要糾纏我多久？我的雙眼看得清晰，我的失眠重蹈覆轍，每夜睜着眼睛到凌晨3、4點。好容易入眠，兩、三個小時后又會醒過來。是啊！白雪皚皚的天地里，這正是你最愛的季節，你說過的。再過幾個小時，你又該在生日蛋糕上吹息歡悅的燭光。但，沒有一通電話，沒有一張卡片，沒能捎去短信，一句：生日快樂，都無法給予你祝福。我只能離你遠遠，試着忘記過去，假裝你從沒有來過。這樣，對你來說是最好的禮物。我也只能給你這么一份禮物。
[밤에]

Met my classmates cum friends from senior high school in church today. Both husband and wife got together some years after graduating from our school and I was even invited to recite the passage from Corinthians Chapter 13 on their wedding day. In fact, it was the wife who brought me to our church [...]

Perhaps Love-am I not worth remembering?

http://www.perhapslovemovie.com/main.html
Zhou Xun has recently received a Golden Horse award for best female lead for her portrayal in the film “Perhaps Love”. She spoke with sincerity how the film has a great impact on her life as an actress as well as in her personal life. I watched the film again on DVD after my [...]

Posting day is here again

I am back, but am only allowed to use the computer for about half an hour daily, that means no reading of blogs and online news like before until next week. Well, the operation was brisk, took only about 10 to 15 mins, but the experience was rather traumatising. I don’t think I might [...]
