要整理前要先通知
不整理又很亂
整理的還不是我的東西
一個公共空間每天這樣看著,難過

最高領導者的條件

 2020真是發生好多事,目前心裡想到最貼切的話是「小孩兒玩歸玩,國家大事照樣發生」<那一夜,我們說相聲>。未來小朋友對今年的記憶會是什麼呢?

為什麼今年連寫個文章都會感到倉促?2012年托老爸帶<最高領導者的條件>來美國,接到老爸拿到書,我在紐約的一個晚上就把書看完了。我想一本書可以在心中留下一句話就很值得了,現在記憶慢慢地回來了。我記得三句話:「我是不是我的我?」、「有信仰,知道上帝在你的頭上,就有信心繼續走下去」、「下山的路才難走」
我是不是我的我?我初看有點玩弄文字,接上脈絡就好理解的多:「我是人民的我?」就這樣,默默的,「有信仰,知道上帝在你的頭上,就有信心繼續走下去」
下山的路才難走。從今天再回頭看,李先生你走的真好。My honor, Mr. Democracy

reminiscence

One high-ranked senior I respect once said, “my job is communication.” He said it casually, but I listened. I constantly ponder what it means, or how to manifest communication ever since. For example, a close related concept is connection. After all, you communicate because you want connection. (well…don’t be picky, you could abuse communication to distance connection too) Practicing social distancing for more than 3 months, I have to admit that I miss connection so so much. (reminding me that the game elona has an attribute of “you feel more in touch with the world”. The designer must be a genius!) A fun retrospective is I found myself re-watching old stuff (movies and dramas mostly, zero book ). Not sure if it is simply because I know the ending already, reassuring the definite outcome brings satisfaction and peace of mind, which kind of makes sense as we are in fact in an uncertain world. Echoing the movie “Midnight in Paris”, everyone thinks they live in the best time. Given choice to travel in time, everyone stays.
I want to recommend this Korean drama: reply 1988. Top reason is it depicts real reality. Life brings happiness, and life in the same time brings challenges, medical bill, rent, accidental misunderstanding, betrayal. This is real life. People struggle for all sorts of sources. In the year of 1980s, living. Filming realistic is a recent Korean drama theme, I guess. What makes reply 1988 excels is its PURE positive energy. Facing mishap, family, neighbors, friends, always support each other. Playing optimistic is hard, just so hard. I admire those virtual characters’ courage and wisdom. You could almost envy their smiles 30 years later when they remember their sweet and bitter memories.
