震动了。动地吟

今年，第一次出席了本地的诗歌诵唱的文化活动—— 动地吟。想也没想过自己会出席这样的文化表演。
第一：因为身边并没有太多喜欢文化艺术的朋友，或是这样说， 没有会起劲儿去看文化表演的朋友。
第二：本身对这样的活动也不敏感。(最多的也是去看歌艺或是交响乐的表演。在这方面还有伴儿)
第三：担心自己会听不明白，没有头绪的话会很闷吧？(就像看艺术片那样，男女主角可以站在一个地方很久也不吭声。 但，最后拿了很多奖项，我还不了解戏要表达些什么。。。)

虽然，动地吟已经过25年了。我的第一次竟也是动地吟的第一次呀！在墓园里举办。(在孝恩演出了，骚动了一夜哟.)
在孝恩看动地吟，在思念故人的地方听艺术的诵唱，艺术的舞蹈，各样的艺术表现方式。但，气氛真的很好！！让人很回味无穷呐！不禁让我这么想：下次会考虑再去看动地吟。

小学以后，已好久没有接触诗歌了。在这里，我又感受到了一群热热的诗人们，艺术家们的内在。喜悦，感慨，悲，怀念，调皮的，愤怒的。用文字和舞步来表达了。

而其中值得一提的是：手集团。好震撼呀！内心不停不停的被撼动着。十分的令我惊讶之余，还非常的佩服。用手敲击着乐器。各类的鼓和琴，就这样奏出绝美的音乐。想象每个敲击都震出音波，音波像涟漪般扩张开来。经过的每一个地方都被音乐净化了一般。仿佛身置绝妙的另一个空间里，呼吸着清冽的空气，耳里响着美妙之音(天籁之音)
特别喜欢当天演奏的《大雅甘美兰》大雅是指以前皇庭里所听的音乐，而甘美兰是马来西亚某个民族的乐器。代表着中华的文化和马来西亚的文化的融合和演变。

这是为了纪念4位已故的艺术家而特地在孝恩举办的，因为在那里的土地上就躺着其中三位贡献很大的本地艺术家。游川、姚新光、陈微崇和陈容。一起奋斗过的朋友和接棒的后人们都来为他们而聚在一起了。虽然，我对他们并不熟悉(现在，是时候慢慢开始多接近艺术了)，但当看着他们的表演时，确实的感受到了他们的思念和真诚情感。

诗人自古总是这样。他们把对社会上的不满表达在诗里，对无法直接说出口的事儿隐藏在艺术里。

然而，艺术终究是艺术啊。。。
再多的愤愤不平，在写在诗里，唱在歌里后，某些事儿还是依然存在着。。。历史一直都告诉我们这样的故事。但，感动的是，明知是如此的艰辛还是愿意这样走下去。^ ^

古早味

最近，看到一些广告，采用了这样的字眼‘古早’。来自于华人方言，意识是‘以前’。^^
新年期间，我在柔佛呆了10天。在家里，其实闷得有点发慌。。。 =P 突然，心血来潮翻出了很多有‘古早’味的东西。首先要看的是这个！

黑黑的，有很重的听筒的电话。打电话时，要用手指套进你要的数字上的洞洞，然后，绕个圈，所有的号码绕完了，才能打通电话。我家还在用这个。^ ^ 而且，新的家用型手提电话已经换了几台，这个古老的电话还能用。虽然，从另外一头传来的声音明显的比现代的手提电话小声，也不能到处拿着讲电话，但，它总是在家里的手提电话坏掉了的时候帮上忙。不怕雷电，不怕停电，不怕家里两个顽皮鬼（两个小侄女）拿来玩弄坏了。。。有一罗的好处呢！^ ^
从我出世以前，就一直被用到现在的‘古早’电话，虽然不华丽，但让我想起了以前很多的事儿呢。。。^ ^

我小时候常常觉得这个时钟像个盘。当时果然没什么览赏艺术的天份呀。也是在我出世懂事时就存在的东西。到现在还摆在客厅使用。然后，我想起自己在吉隆坡这里的家的时钟，已经换了不知多少个了。‘古早’的东西果然比较耐用，也超耐看的。现在觉得如果要买上一个像这样有艺术的时钟因该得花上不少钱哟。(^ ^)v

猜！这是什么？^ ^一定猜不到。这是以前的黑白电视机！！>_<!!!够‘古早’了吧！！还有一个像这样大大的箱子装起来的。可以把门往横拉开，里面就是电视机了。不过，这个呢真的是坏了，所以，爸爸把里面的电视机拆出来了。里面现在是空的，妈妈用来装其它物品。去哪里找这么珍贵的‘橱’呐？！^ ^

这个去年去国家博物馆的时候看到了。^ ^打字机。。。 因为懒得把放在上面的东西搬掉，所以，只拍下了键盘。这个键盘真的很重，但是，以前我是用这个学打字的。后来，哥哥有了架电脑才开始用电脑学打字。^ ^

 噢！这些都是从小就一直伴着我到现在的家俱。左边这张是小小个的时候用来画画的。




 
这张桌子用到花纹都快不见了。我们的饭桌，也是我和姐姐小时的书桌。吃饭，做功课，读书都用它。现在轮到我的两个侄女了。哈！传了三代呢！







这个书橱放满了爸爸收藏的书籍。什么古代经典大概都有，还有。。。武侠小说哈！^ ^









啊哈！这套沙发很多年啦！爸爸每次还会笑我小时候长牙的时候，很喜欢咬沙发的木。哎哟！都不知道是不是骗我的。。 >_<lll

唷！这个前身是个菜橱。现在被放在屋子后方变成了小小‘储藏室’。放满了爸妈不舍得丢，觉得还有用的东西。虽然，被放在屋后，但，其实还没有坏掉哦！还可以很好的‘保护’好里面装着的一切。

 词渊，这是一本很特别的字典。专门找一些古老的字。用法也跟现在的字典不同。我不会用，家里只有爸爸会用。^ ^ 日本人的汉文 （kanji）里有些还应用着中国的古字，在这里可以找到汉语的发音。所以，每当需要知道kanji的汉语发音是，就得请爸爸翻一下这本词典了。

这是我的钢琴。^ ^并没有很‘古早’味，但放在大厅里，它看起来就是很古老。这家钢琴的牌子现在在马来西亚也找不到了。我在想，爸爸用多少钱买了这架钢琴呢？以前，要买一架钢琴不是简单的事吧？父母都是老师，一个月的薪水加起来不会很多，但是，爸爸妈妈很勤劳哟，还有教补习。买钢琴，学钢琴和考试的费用，不少钱呢。。
爸爸总是我们要学什么，都尽量让我们去学。（钢琴是姐姐一直很想要的，当时我还搞不清那是什么。不过，学上来了就非常的喜欢，到现在还一直在弹。只是，不太喜欢乐理。=_=ll）
吉他也是这样。（吉他是大学时，他知道我很想学送我的生日礼物，不过，学费是自己给的）
选科进入大学时，我其实并不想要别的，只要进入美术系。。。但是，政府大学没有美术系。爸爸提议了我让我进入私立大学美术系。我推掉了，因为那个要用很多钱。我觉得，现在这样还可以自己在美术里随兴，其实，也很好。^ ^

每一件有‘古早’味的事物都有不同的故事，回忆。希望若干年后，它们还一直陪伴着我们。^ ^

Oh! This is just so truth. Ha! ^ ^

The Art Of Living

Haha! it is cute, isn't it? And is very meaningful. ^ ^

Ya! Ya! Nobody responsible to your own life even your family members like your parents, siblings, husband or your wife, even your children.

When somebody said word(s) or act something(s) that hurt you, is your own feeling that annoying yourself, that made yourself sad. No others, is you.

You think they were bad to you and all feeling start to be generated and you can't stop blaming others-- " She is the one who made me sad"; " He was so irresponsible"; " Why you treat me like that? I had contributed so much in the relationship"; " Nobody love me."; "I was abundance, they don't need me anymore.", " Why everybody bully me?"; "Oh! Today is a unlucky day for me!!"; "ARrrrrr, I hate traffic jam, the government made a bad city development planning.",etc.

And we started to put our 'wish' on others--
"You must get good score in your test so that you can manage to enter the good school."; " You always not listen to me, this made me worry."; " Why you don't do this? Why you dont' do that?",etc

We become involved with the unpleasant and separated from pleasant. We fail to get what we want; instead we get what we do not want. All these situation is suffering.
For each of us, the "I", the ego, the image we have of ourselves is most important person in the world. But none of us is alone in the world, one "I" is bound to come into conflict with another. We each develop great attachment to what we possess, because it is associated with us, it supports the image of "I".

We each convinced that our own views and traditions are the best and become very upset whenever we hear them criticized. If we try to explain our views and others do not accept them, again we become upset.
We fail to recognized that each person has his or her own beliefs. It is futile to argue about which view is correct; more beneficial would be to set aside any preconceived notions and to try to see reality. However, our attachment to views prevents us from doing so, keeping us unhappy.

Come back to ourselves, and look deep into ourselves and found out:- no others but I am the one who made me suffering.

每个人都是个‘老灵魂‘

当你一来到这个世界时，你就带着了一个‘老灵魂’。^ ^
你知道所有的一切。你拥有很多的智慧。
但是，‘老灵魂’在内心躲了起来。看看你有没有办法把他/她找出来。

当你一来到这个世界时，你就得借着这个物质世界，做完你该做的一些功课。学会了课程后，才回去。^ ^ 但，也有人没法把全部的功课做完。 那， 就得等到再回到物质世界时把功课做完。这次做完功课的人，会有新的功课要做。
哎呀！这样没完没了呀！^ ^  看上去好像如此呢。。。但，当有一天，全部该做的都做完了，那么，就不必再做功课了。^ ^ v

有时候，人生遇到了困难，不如去问问‘老灵魂’：‘你之前是做了什么呀？我现在得做这么麻烦的功课。”或者问：“你又要我学什么了啊？”这样，解决问题就变成了完成功课的一部分。这样，一切看起来很难的东西，似乎可以变得更加得从容了。因为，知道只要功课做完后，以后都不需再做那样的功课了。（所谓完成功课是要彻底的领悟了， 接纳，并放下）

这样想。。。好想天空会变得蓝一点，风也凉了一点儿，太阳会偷偷的笑，下起雨都觉得雨儿在跳舞。^ ^

你是很有智慧的，赶快把‘老灵魂’的智慧挖出来吧！>_<

Gift

A young man was getting ready to graduate college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.

As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box.

Curious, but somewhat disappointed the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible. Angrily, he raised his voice at his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" and stormed out of the house, leaving the holy book.

Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and wonderful family, but realized his father was very old, and thought perhaps he should go to him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care things. When he arrived at his father's house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart.

He began to search his father's important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he read those words, a car key dropped from an envelope taped behind the Bible. It had a tag with the dealer's name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words...PAID IN FULL.

How many times do we miss God's blessings because they are not packaged as we expected?
