天冷就回来

天冷就回来 陈洁仪

从前对着收音机 学唱旧的歌
我问妈妈为什么 伤心像快乐
妈妈笑着 说她也不懂得
我想出去走一走 哦妈妈点点头

天冷你就回来 别在风中徘徊
喔妈妈眼里有明白 还有一丝无奈
天冷我想回家 童年已经不在
昨天的雨点洒下来 那滋味叫做爱

唔 别在风中徘徊 唔 天冷就回来

渐渐对着收音机 学唱新的歌
我问朋友为什么 做梦也快乐
朋友笑说 她从不相信梦
我想出去走一走 哦朋友点点头

天冷你就回来 别在风中徘徊
朋友的眼里有明白 还有一份期待
天冷我想回家 年少已经不在
今天的雨点洒下来 那滋味就是爱

现在对着收音机 听自己唱的歌
我的他问为什么 幸福不快乐
我微笑着 说我也不懂得
他想出去走一走 我对他点点头

天冷你就回来 别在风中徘徊
我猜我眼里有明白 还有一丝无奈
天冷他没回家 我仍然在等待
明天的雨点洒下来 那滋味就是爱

唔 别在风中徘徊 唔 天冷就回来

词曲:梁文福

当初花了六十元买了梁文福合辑:绕梁一世,不知道值不值得。但一见到这首歌时,一切都已值得。也唯独这首歌,深深触动我的心弦。

The snail and the boy

Heard this story yesterday in a donation cum dinner function. Just want to share it.

Once upon a time, an angel went up to a boy and said :"Boy, please bring this snail for a walk, if you manage to walk the snail, you will be rewarded."

"Ok, no big deal." the boy replied.

So, the boy was given a snail and brought the snail for a walk.

The snail was extremely slow. Initially, he was walking beside the snail, then he got frustrated at the speed of which the snail is moving. So he decided to walk in front of the snail.

The boy was farther and farther away from the snail, until he could not see the snail in his sight. He decided to go back to the snail and just walk behind it.

Suddenly, after some time, the boy felt so relieved. He was walking slowly, he breathed the fresh air in the morning, he saw the beautiful flowers along the way. He watched the beautiful scenaries far away.

He realised that he has gotten his reward - he has learnt to take things slowly, one at a time, so that he could appreciate life and treasure what is in front of him.

My opinion:
Actually, this religious person is trying to tell people not to look into the future or dwell in the past. We will be happier if we treasure the present day. I kind of disagree but i cannot really say why. This story actually nearly brought me to tears, I don't know why, perhaps I am quite emotionally vulnerable these few months.

Birthday just gone like that...

Ooohh... What a birthday this year turns out to be.

Oh, for those who don't know, 15th Feb is my birthday.

Anyway, someone wished my happy birthday right at the stroke of 12 midnight. Then the tough part began - project discussion on MSN (very inconducive medium). The discussion lasted till 2 am I think but I was extremely inactive in it.

MSN log:

Annyong ha shimnikka... Che irumun Nisa imnida says:
justin u still there?
.........
you know, i know, we know. www.akudeta.com says:
justin?
.........
Halimah says:
justin where are you?
.........
Annyong ha shimnikka... Che irumun Nisa imnida says:
ehhhh
Annyong ha shimnikka... Che irumun Nisa imnida says:
Justin......
Halimah says:
juuuuuustiiiiiiiin.....

But I was really attending to something much much more serious than my project...

BUT... hey, honestly speaking, I cannot remember if I discussed the project yesterday or the day before. I think I am in some serious trouble, I cannot identify and differentiate what are the things I did on 13th, 14th and 15th Feb. Think it is because I slept for only 3 plus hours for 2 consecutive days, hence the confusion...

Anyway, was talking online till 4 plus am. I am near to crumble. Slept for just a few hours before I need to wake up for an early class far far away.

No one knows my birthday, I have this urge of telling them today is my birthday but I somehow remained silent.

After school, it is a long journey back home. Went to buy TOTO for my mum and food for my sis. Oh no... I hesitated for a while while typing this, I thought I did those things on 14th Feb when I have done them just hours ago.

Rushed through my part for the project...

Mum was suffering from migraine and the plan to bring her out to eat was cancelled. I went out to buy dinner instead. Later in the evening, Dad took us out for a drink. I came back and before I know it, 15th Feb 2008 is over.

What an ordinary day!

But the good thing is, I received quite a lot of smses...

And one more thing, a very close friend told me "Justin, you should treat your mum a big meal on your birthday!"

"Erm... Yes, that is fine with me, but why?" I replied.

"Your mum carried you for 10 months to give birth to you. On the day you were born, she went through a very dangerous time in her life. You should be gladful every year on this day that someone is willing to risk her life so that you can experience what life is all about." the friend said.

I was really really touched. I thought that was one of the most meaningful and beautiful phrase I have ever heard. I pledged to myself that for every birthday onwards, I will be grateful to my mum, who gave birth to me and let me have a taste of life, be it sad or happy.

I hope those who read this post to just give your mum a big hug when your birthday comes. Tell her how much you appreciate her care and concern.

Thomas Malthus For Me

Thomas Malthus was famous for conjuring up the doomsday theory.

He proposed that food supply would grow at an arithmetric rate (1,2,3,4,5...) while population would grow at a geometric rate (1,2,4,8,16...).
So there would come a time when the population growth would outgrow food supply and the world would come to an end.
However, he suggested that the judgement day did not come because of wars, femine and natural disaster, taking away lives.

I liken the theory to myself.

My ability to gain more knowledge and make money grow arithmetrically, but the desire and need for money grow geometrically. There will come a point in time when the need for money is greater than my ability/opportunities to make money.

I need a big break.

Knock knock...

Knock Knock.

"Who's there?"

"It's me!"

"Sorry but I don't recognise your voice."

There was a few seconds of silence. I was curious who was outside. I peeked through the door hole. I saw the face of crisis. I looked through its eyes. It knew I was looking at it and grinned.

"I'm crisis, please let me in."

"Never! Please just go away!"

"But I am here for a party! You mean it is cancelled?"

Damn... when did I call for a party? And to invite people like Crisis?

"Hey you are here as well! Good to know you are coming too." Crisis spoke.

I felt weird. I looked through the door hole once again. This does not look good. Another crisis came.

Knock knock...

"Come on, let us in."

I knew I had to remain calm. I kept mum, not replying to any of their pleas. It was not long before I heard footsteps from far away.

I sticked my ear near to the door the monitor the situation outside...

"Yo yo yo... Bros, how's life! Looks like we are going to have a great time inside the house!"

I knew another crisis has come. Damn...

"Look who's here! Long time no see, Fear! Thank goodness you managed to find your way here."

"Haha... not too difficult to navigate my way here. Looks like you guys are not too well prepared. No food, no drinks..."

"Who says we are not prepared?"

Pause for a few seconds.

"Ahh... there it is!"

I heard the sound of a motorbike.

"Hi guys. My name is Uncertainty. I am here to deliver some food."

"What do you have in store for us?"

"Hmm... let me see. 2 dozens of specially concocted drinks that makes you feel useless. Plus 4 large pizza with spices that can trigger suicidal thoughts. So please eat with caution."

"Great stuff. Please stay for the party. It will be a fun one."

"This is my last delivery of the day... Ok, I'll stay!" Uncertainty sounded really excited about it.

A commotion started to form outside my door as more 'guests' came.

"Excuse me, is this the correct address?" someone asked.

"Yes correct and you are..."

"My name is Despair, my friend Weak invited me to this party. Am I at the correct place?"

"Of course you are! See the huge crowd. But Weak may be slightly late, do chat with us as we wait for that idiot behind the door to open the door for us to enter."

The knockings were incessant as they took turns to knock on my door and begged me to let them in. I felt this was getting out of hand. I moved some of my furniture to block the door as the knocks got progressively louder.

I heard names like Hopeless, Emptiness, Sadness, Misery, Gloomy, Devastation, Doubts, Confusion, Failure blah blah blah outside. The crowd is forming, and I think there should be more than 30 of them outside.

Suddenly, the noise died in an instant. A gentle knock came.

"Hello? Don't be afraid, they are all gone now. I am Help, I am here to help you." A sweet and subtle voice said.

"Are you sure you are here to help?"

"Yes, I will lend you a helping hand. But you must believe me, you must open the door for me."

I knew something was not right. I knew there was no help for me, the only help was quite far away, I knew that for sure.

"Don't you bluff me. You are one of them, I will not let you in, not over my dead body!" I exclaimed in anger.

"Boo...Boo..." the boisterous crowd suddenly came to life.

"Hey Bro Helplessness, your idea to trick him is good, but too bad he is not as stupid as we think!" someone in the crowd shouted.

I was nearly brought to tears. My sanity snapping but I knew my mental base is strong enough to withstand all the nonsense. I was afraid, very afraid, but I had to act brave.

"Its here! Its here! Our VIP is here!" someone, or should I say something shouted.

The crowd got rowdier than before. Seemed like someone big had arrived. I can hear its heavy footsteps, I can feel an extremely strong emotion.

"Oh my God, I think Mr depressed is here." I thought to myself.

I dared not peek through the door hole again. The grotesqueness of these 'things' were enough to put me on a cardiac arrest. I must hold my ground firmly.

"Why are you all still standing here? Waiting for the pigs to fly!?!?" the deep angry voice from Depressed lamented. "Guys, do something! Try to break in! Try to tear the door down!"

I was trembling with fear at the thought of them forcing their way through, but I was not allowed to show any emotion on my face, I tried to surpress my scream.

I heard the noise of chainsaws and drillers, they got louder and louder. I tried to cover my ears, close my eyes. I felt wood dust falling on my shoulders as I squat behind the door. They are cutting their way through...

I whispered a little prayer. I prayed for my life, I prayed for my sanity. But I don't know who am I praying to. I know it is a futile attempt, but what can I do now?

Sinister laughters surrounded me. I am about to fall. I really am.

I dared not open my eyes... I tried to numb all my senses...

Moments later, someone touched me on my shoulder "Are you ready to party?"

政治论文:“一国两制”在涵义上的转变

摘要:本文将探讨“一国两制”从理论构想初期到现今在涵义上的转变,主要将研究方向专于中国与台湾对“一国两制”的辩解和主张,并以不同的政治时代进行分解(大陆方面有邓小平时代、江泽民时代、胡锦涛时代至2007年为止;台湾方面有李登辉时代与陈水扁时代至2007年为止),概括分析与探寻两岸对“一国两制”意涵上的解读。

1.导言
顾名思义,“一国两制”的基本构想可概括为“一个国家,两种制度”[1] ,主要内涵为建立特别行政区[2],并基于照顾台湾的现状和台湾同胞的实际意义,使台湾得以保存资本主义制度和享有高度自治权。[3] 就“一国两制”的意涵上,两岸的解读有南辕北辙的看法,因而引发了双方彼此之间最强烈的争议。从两岸的纷纷争议中,本文将探讨两岸如何为“一国两制”的内涵定位,并从中一窥“一国两制”自出台历来在涵义上的转变。

2.中共在“一国两制”上的整体策略

2.1邓小平对“一国两制”的基调
“一国两制”的构想模式在设计的方式,仍然沿用了过去叶九条[4]与告台湾同胞报告书[5] 的思想模式,即中央是中央政府,台湾是特别行政区的地方政府,依属一定的主从关系形成。在邓小平的看法中,社会主义必须在主体(十亿人口的中国大陆)内实行,包括了即使有外资进入的深圳与上海,因为唯有这样大陆才不会被实施资本主义的区域,像香港或台湾所影响到。[6]

6)《邓小平这番“主从关系”谈话》,引述于郭立民•《中共对台政策资料选辑,(1949-1991)上册》,台北:永业出版社,1996年4月5日,pg607(以下简称郭书上册)



—————————————————————————————————————————————————
基本上,从邓小平掌权到退位(1979-1989)[7],“一国两制”的基调始终不变,十足有“求同存异” [8] 的性质。在国际上代表中国的,只能是中华人民共和国,中国只承认台湾地方政府在对内政策上可以搞自己一套,但条件是不能损害统一的国家的利益。[9]

2.2江泽民对“一个中国原则”意涵上的模糊化
江泽民在掌权初期时,依然坚持“一国两制”的原本纲领,主张“中央”对“地方”的主从关系,他在1990年6月中旬所举行的全国统战会议上说:“我们坚持‘一国两制’,和平统一祖国的方针。要在海外统战工作中求爱国和祖国统一之同,存社会制度、意识形态和生活方式之异。”[10] 1993年8月31日,中共国务院对台办公室会同新闻办公室所共同发表的《台湾问题与中国的统一》白皮书,更进一步重申了“一国两制”的基本框架,并提出了“一个中国”的原则,『台湾是中国不可分割的一部分,中央政府在北京』[11],仍然坚持以“老大”对“小弟”的关系进行和平谈判。

在1995年1月30日所发表的“江八点”[12] 可被视为是一个“原则从严,解释从宽” [13] 的发展,只强调了“一个中国”的原则,舍弃了对意涵的解释,显得比较有弹性的空间,在言词上没有特别指定“一个中国”就是“中华人民共和国”,即使提到“一个中国”必须与意涵有所联系,那么这个意涵的解释也充满了抽象化与模糊化。对于“一个中国”原则的阐释,“江八点”没有如《台湾问题与中国的统一》白皮书那么明显强调“一个中国”就是“中华人民共和国”。[14]

14)《台湾问题与中国的统一》白皮书对于“一个中国”的说明:『中华人民共和国成立以来,157个国家先后同中国建立外交关系,它们都承认一个中国,中华人民共和国政府是中国唯一合法政府,台湾是中国的一部分』,引述于邵书,pg551;“江八点”则提出:『坚持一个中国的原则,是实现和平统一的基础和前提』,引述于邵书,pg570



—————————————————————————————————————————————————
“江八点”在“一国两制”的和平框架和基本原则下[15],实现了过渡性的让步,即『在一个中国的原则下,正式结束两岸敌对状态』,进行谈判,并达成协议。江泽民也在1998年5月11日的中央对台工作会议上重申『要毫不动摇地坚持一个中国原则』[16],『暂时不谈和平统一,可以先谈在一个中国原则下正式结束两岸敌对关系』[17],并在1998年6月27日同美国克林顿会谈时强调『在一个中国的前提下,什么问题都可以谈』[18] 基本上,此时的“一国两制”在涵义上被赋予更宽松和开放的空间,“一个中国原则”和“中国统一”的目标被区分开来,使台湾在无后顾之忧的情况下,接受“一个中国原则”。[19]

2.3胡锦涛对坚持“一个中国”原则的贯彻性
2005年3月4日,胡锦涛在政协十届三次会议的分组上提出四点意见,并且依然『坚持一个中国原则决不动摇』[20],中共随后又在2005年3月14日制定宪法,重申了『大陆和台湾同属一个中国』和『坚持一个中国原则,是实现祖国和平统一的基础』[21]。同样的,中共对“一个中国原则”进行了意涵上的省略,不强调以政治实体来阐释“一个中国”。胡锦涛最近所发表的十七大报告中[22],在对台政策方面,也不特意表述中共是中国唯一的统治政治实体。

纵观三个政治时代[23] 所提出的主张,“一国两制”在本质框架下保持长久不变,其中的“一国”按照国际法理也顺理成章。不过,“一个中国”原则已不再和政治实体或中华人民共和国挂上联系,以制造更宽松的空间,来促成两岸和平谈判。这无疑是中共赋予“一国两制”和平框架上近来最大的改变,是主流话语和政策陈述的关键词语,具有深意。

3.台湾对“一国两制”涵义上的软性主张

3.1李登辉时代:从“一个中国”到“两国”的畸形变质

“一个中国”原则的变调进程
李登辉总统在1991年4月30日记者会接受记者询问时表示:“在动员戡乱时期终止之后,台北将视中共为控制大陆地区的政治实体,称它为大陆当局或中共当局。因为大陆地区现为中央所控制是必须面对的事实。” [24] 这样的宣告无疑说明了“一国两区”的意义,不过在这初步概念的框架下,所谓“一国”,『是中华民国,而非一般所提到抽象概念的中国,或是文化及民族的中国』[25],与中共对“一个中国原则”的意涵互相抵触。

台湾的大陆政策,依据1991年的“国统纲领”[26],确立了“一个中国原则”,也对其赋予了坚定性的解释,『大陆与台湾均是中国的领土』,『在一个中国原则下,以和平方式解决一切争端』[27],但在意涵上却不代表说中共政权就是等于中国。1992年8月,国统会第八次全体委员会议,同样强调了『“一个中国”应指1912年成立自今之中华民国,其主权及于整个中国,但目前之治权,则仅及台澎金马。台湾固为中国之一部分,但大陆亦为中国之一部分。』[28]

到了1994年7月,台北当局公布了《台湾两岸关系说明书》[29],有关“一个中国”政策虽然坚持,但是“一个中国”的定位有了变调,是指『历史上、地理上、文化上、血缘上的中国』[30],与国统会所作的解释有相当程度的差距,缺少了政治上的定位。1995年4月8日的“李六条”[31] 中更没有再替“一个中国”意涵诠释,对“一个中国”的定位只是说明『两岸需要获得较多的共识』[32]。显然,“一个中国”的意涵有所调整到比较抽象与未来的定位。

1999年7月9日,李登辉在接受“德国之声”专访时说:“1991年修宪以来,已将两岸关系定位在国家与国家,至少是特殊的国与国的关系,而非一合法政府、一叛乱团体,或一中央政府、一地方政府的‘一个中国’的内部关系。”[33]这完全颠覆了“一个中国”的传统原则,并将两岸定位为两个互不隶属的独立国家,更炸毁了两岸政治谈判的基础,使“一国”彻底偏离了原则与意涵上的轨道。

台湾当局将“两制”视为『是任由中共宰制的一种权宜措施,本质上,仍是一种主从关系』[34],因此,在此前提下,企图通过改变提法,以一个比较模糊性的中性名词来避开管辖权问题,降低两岸政治上的争议与主权辩论。1990年8月31日台湾行政院长郝柏村在向立法院86会期提交的书面施政报告中,首次提出将按照“一个国家、两个地区”的观念,即“一国是‘中华民国’,两地区则指台湾地区和大陆地区”[35]。根据“两区”的政策架构与理念,意味着从地理概念上承认台湾与大陆是两个不同的主体,有两套不同的法律体系和立法机构,但实质上是将海峡两岸视为两个独立的政治实体。虽然“两制”与“两区”又本质上的区别,不过,值得一提的是,“两区”的概念相当模棱两可与中性,使两岸在主权问题上不那么对立和僵化。

按照“国统纲领”,台湾当局要求『理性、和平、对等、互惠』的原则下,和『不否定对方为政治实体』[36],进行两个政治实体对等性的会谈。此时对于两岸的定位已更趋模糊化和寓意深化,“两个政治实体”是一个抽象的政治学概念,含义广泛且富弹性,泛指国际社会中的政治存在,而这种存在可以指谓政党等政治组织,或一个地方当局,也可以指国家。[37] 这样的政策取向似乎是与“一国两制”完全背道而驰的“两国论”的前奏,推进了一个中国存在着两个国家、中国的国家主权是否分裂的论调与问题。“两国论”的提出则使“一国两制”的涵义彻底变质,放弃了对中国内地主权的宣言,也不再以统一为目标,两岸之间被定位为国与国之间的特殊关系。

3.2善变的陈水扁:从“四不一没有”的中性主张嬗变到极端台独论
此时期的政策主要颠覆了“一个中国”原则与背离了“一国两制”的和平框架与科学性理念。陈水扁取得政权后的基本政治走向还是继承了“两国论”的衣钵,进而发展了台独理念。2000年5月20日的“总统就职演说”所提出的“四不一没有” [38] 可被视为一种过渡性的策略趋向,为了是不要过度刺激大陆,对“一个中国”原则采取回避和模糊的态度。陈水扁在就职满月的“6•20”记者会上公开否认“海峡两岸均坚持一个中国原则”的“九二共识”[39],宣称是“没有共识的共识”[40],故意混淆“一个中国”原则与“一个中国”在涵义上的概念,更在2000年7月31的记者会上进一步把两会共识歪曲为所谓“交流、对话、搁置争议的九二精神”[41]。这一切都显示着陈水扁依然在回避“一个中国”与“九二共识”,玩弄模糊的文字游戏。

不过,模糊与回避的基调很快就趋向态度硬化的台独立场,在大陆政策上改弦易辙。2002年8月3日,陈水扁利用视讯直播方式向日本“世界台湾同乡联谊会”传达出他对两岸关系定位的基本主张,宣称“台湾是一个主权独立的国家,简言之,台湾跟对岸中国一边一国,要分清楚”[42],这样的“一边一国”主张无疑是对“一个中国”的挑战,并且将两岸关系定位在国与国之间的关系。在上述的情况下,陈水扁继续耍台独手腕,如在2006年2月28日批示同意『国家统一委员会』终止运作和《国家统一纲领》终止适用案[43],意味着排除两岸统一的可能性。2007年3月10日,陈水扁在出席『台湾人公共事务会』25周年庆祝晚宴时发表“四要一没有”的主张,『台湾要独立,台湾要正名,台湾要新宪,台湾要发展』,更深化了其极端台独的理念。值得注意的是,新主张所提的『台湾没有左右的问题,只有统独的问题』[44] 有着前后不一的吊诡说法,使人怀疑其政策的持续性。

基本上,现今的民进党政权认为『“和平统一,一国两制”是中共对台政策的基本方针,本质上以消灭中华民国为目的,企图将台湾降格为中华人民共和国辖下的地方政府。接受“一国两制”,就等于放弃台湾的主权、断送台湾多年来所建立的民主体制与“主权在民”的理念』[45]。因此,“一国两制”的科学性架构与构想已不复存在,在涵义上已完全变质,相对的,台湾已放弃了统一两岸的政治基础,“一国两制”转质为“一边一国”的台独理念。

4.总结
中国共产党三代领导集体在对台政策上一脉相承的原则坚定性、脉络延续性,在处理两岸关系的根本原则和总体方针,是层层递进,并未发生改变。从邓小平时代提出的“和平统一,一国两制”的总体方针,再到江泽民时代时上述目标方针全面展开的“江八点”,直到胡锦涛在十七大对上述政策加以坚持和重申的“四不”,以及结合两岸关系情势新变化提出的“和平发展为主题”,“谋福祉,谋和平,护主权”为基轴的对台政策总纲,对台问题上的目标、路线和方向,完整清晰展现政策的立场,决心在宣示政策走向的同时,也高度重视拓展政策的回旋空间。

相对的,台湾当局在对大陆政策上呈现不一致的政策取向,缺乏前后相承的连贯性,并且擅于玩弄文字于股掌之间,逐渐行使政治权力,迈向台独的康庄大道。从李登辉时代提出的原则依然,但涵义不同的“一个中国,两个政治实体”,再到“两国论”的出台,直至陈水扁继承“两国论”所发展成的“一边一国”论调,对大陆问题的政策路线与方向充斥着许多变调与对中共的“一国两制”政策在本质上的彻底颠覆,以强硬的态度逼进台独的实践,步步为营,掀开中共的底线,使到两岸统一的美好远景顿然变得遥不可及。

Happy Lunar New Year!

On behalf of all Fukepaike, I would like to wish all readers of our blog, a very happy chinese new year. Hope the rat year would be a fruitful one for you.

The Surge

It is there
but it is under the radar
It is always there
and the radar is always there
The radar malfunctions on purpose
and the emotions lurking, circling
The dangers are apparent
but the ignorant is always ignorant
Only when the surge comes
the radar detects
But all is too late
there is no use breaking the alarm
Everything happens in the blink of an eye
dramatically tragical
Ruthless, swift, unforgiving
Like thousands of bullets
they pierce through my mortal flesh
I can scream all I like
But the surge has blocked my throat
It breaks all my defense
I am helpless, tormented
My stability multilated
parts of it fed to nothingness
"Please!" I begged
"Why are you doing this to me!" I cried
The surge cannot reply
It does not have a mind of its own
*Sigh* I guess this is how it goes
I have to comply
And suffer deep inside
All I can ask for
is for the surge to go away
I know you will come many times again
But please, just go away this time
GO AWAY!!!!

Is it possible to 'shut down' instincts?

Hmm... I experimented with this idea of not responding to a stimulus. Of course not in a dangerous way where I ignore on-coming traffic or hazardous stuff.

The stimulus I am dealing with is more of a subtle yet extremely poweful kind - THOUGHTS. It is natural for us to link one thought to the other if they can really go hand in hand, and if they are part 1 and 2 of something, ie: the 2 thoughts should not be separated at all, thinking of one would almost definitely lead to thinking of the other.

Here is an example of a proper/normal chain of reaction/thoughts:
1. If your mother does not return home after dark,
2. the next thing you will think of is her safety,
3. the next reaction would be calling her mobile phone.
4. Call her until she picks up the phone...

I tried to severe the link. Eg:
1. It is getting late, Mum has not return.
2. No action/thought
3. No action/thought
4. No action/thought...
ie: The train of thoughts/reaction stops at the point where you know the fact that Mum has not reached home.

Tell me, is it possible?

Perhaps we can add a little spice to the situation...

Here is a possibility of what can happen:
1. It is getting late, Mum has not return.
2. Then I go and watch a Channel 8 drama series.
3. Thinking of the dress style for Chinese New Year.
4. Open MSN and start chatting.

We can keep our minds busy, overload it with things we want to do, good things we want to think of etc. What happens to the trigger incident? Can we still consider the 1st event a 'trigger'?

For a few days, I tried to sway some of my thoughts in a very weird way. A thought that desperately required a reaction is blocked by my will. The mind has somehow created a barrier that forbides the forceful intrusion of a reaction/thought to be registered to the place where all signals are sent (not too sure what is it called, command HQ?) There seems to be a chemical that breaks the linkages of what seem like a perfect bond between keys and locks.

For once, I thought that I was successful at blocking away reactions coming from thoughts. At times, I thought I can even cripple my self defense mechanism. This is the ultimate already. If you know something can harm you big time, your self defense mechanism should overwrite the whole thinking system and react the way you should and must react.

But guess what, I failed. There will come a time when the thoughts seep through the lines of weakness of the barrier I created and tons of thoughts engulf the command HQ, like gallons of water breaking free from a dam, controlling everything. The floodgates have opened. I followed the chain of thoughts like a toddler follows his Mum so he does not get lost, like an obedient soldier who follows every single order by the officer in fear of getting punished, like the earth following the rotation system around the sun. I was being dominated.

Humans are strange creatures though. Our capacity to reason and think makes us top of the hierarchy of the animal kingdom. But I believe this is a cursed ability in disguised. Like fire, it can be our master or slave. The ability to think, is likewise.

I think I am drifting. The conclusion is that we can never not react to our instincts. The mind is inherently vulnerable. Some people say we can train our minds to be strong, that is because it is weak! This is a poor argument but please let me make my point. The fact that you can manipulate the mind to be stronger in the 1st place shows us that the mind is weak and vulnerable. If you can farther strengthen your mental strength, it still shows your mind is weak, because it cannot come to a state of equilibrium for it to remain unchanged. It is easy to topple something if it is not in its equilibrium state and the mind for one, is never in such a state. Of course, the other side of the argument that the mind is weak, is quite self explanatory. Weak minds are controlled by the hearts.

Oh, how about the heart? Is it strong or weak? My brain juice is running low... can't think now.

By the way, once there is no more water coming out of the floodgates, the mind suddenly erects a new barrier, lines of weakness included, as usual. A new resistance against the instincts has just begun. Hmm... I really want to meet my mind in person and ask it "How did you do that?"

The Click Five's Empty

This lyrics of the song is simple, but I think it is extremely powerful.

The Click Five - Empty
-------------------------
Tried to take a picture
Of love
Didn't think I'd miss her
That much
I want to fill this new frame
But it's empty

Tried to write a letter
In ink
Its been getting better
I think
I got a piece of paper
But it's empty
It's empty

Maybe we're trying
Trying too hard
Maybe we're torn apart
Maybe the timing
Is beating our hearts
We're empty

And I've even wondered
If we
Should be getting under
These sheets
We could lie in this bed
But it's empty
It's empty

Maybe we're trying
Trying too hard
Maybe we're torn apart
Maybe the timing
Is beating our hearts
We're empty

Oh oh
Oh oh
Oooooh
Oh oh
Oh oh

Maybe we're trying
Trying too hard
Maybe we're torn apart
Maybe the timing
Is beating our hearts
We're empty

We're empty
We're empty
--------------------------

What do we do with emptiness? If it is something that needs to be filled or occupied, we should be doing something about it. The lyrics portray another different perspective of emptiness.

I don't know if my interpretation is correct, so pardon me.

Here, the sense of emptiness is so great that it becomes a barrier to get things done. "Tried to take a picture of love... I want to fill this new frame, but it's empty", "Tried to write a letter in ink... I got a piece of paper, but it's empty".

The emptiness is so filled with emotions that it overwhelms the person. The person wants to get things done but cannot do so in the face of emptiness. The emptiness grapples the will and desire to make it not empty. The more I hear the song the more intriguing I feel.

You are supposed to be in command if given something empty, you can do what you like with it. Imagine the emptiness controlling you... scary.

And the tune is depressing too. Check out this song if you are free.

Sorry??

This word has less and less meaning to me. What I feel is that people apologize for various reasons. To absolve themselves from blame? To get rid of aggressors from hounding further? To remove themselves from further interrogation? Or could it be, simply to sincerely apologize?

Sincerity comes into the picture. We look at the people waiting for an apology. Do they have any other reasons other than the apologizer to be repentant? I hardly think so. Of course, there are people who want to be apologized to inflate their egos, but I’ll leave them out of the picture today. All times, we look for sincerity while watching people apologize. What if there isn’t? Anger follows.

What I start to think is that the word ‘sorry’ begins to be more and more redundant and ineffective. (The engineer and the need for effectiveness) As I have mentioned, the action of relating the sincerity in the apologies is more important. What I would argue is that apologies is sugarcoating, what lies between the lines is more important.

Not only for just the simple action of apologizing, but in all forms of communication, be it with or without words, for all effectiveness, I appeal for sincerity.

Is ego a factor? Maybe… Maybe not…

(Sorry for rough work. All of last minute ideas. No pun intended. Sincerity rules.)

Suddenly, life has a new meaning

I think only one person has seen my previous post: "This may be my last blog entry".

Wasn't really feeling good 2 days ago. But now, I'm ok, not slightly better, but a lot better. I have discovered many different aspects of me. Every moment, every action and thought that I had, debunked who I thought I am for over 20 years. I am now same same but different.

It was a weird event, I doubt I can experience anything as weird as this one in my life. I think the same goes to many others. It was one of those kinds of things where you thought everything's lost but amazingly, nothing actually happened.

Lady luck was on my side. Sometimes teasing me to such an extent that it is driving me crazy. Sometimes she is sleeping when I needed her the most but now I know that somehow, she is always by my side.

Suddenly, life has a new meaning. But it takes great courage to experience what it means. I have to purposely cripple my self-defense instincts, I have to shut down my capacity to think rationally, I have to force my eyes to open even if a sharp object is aiming towards my eyes. But I am happy to do so, because by doing so, I can be genuinely happy. (Oooh, so complicated that I myself don't understand!)

Anyway, of the 3 outcomes, I achieved rejuvenation. Thank goodness.

Hopefully, I am really mentally tougher now.
