關於我自己

我的相片
在時代夾縫中成長,經歷過難以想像的艱辛歲月,見證了半世紀的風雲,進入過色彩絢爛的古代文化世界,遨遊過西方廣闊的思想天地,宇宙六合,俱在心靈重現宏偉的圖景。一生堅守的信念,源自內心深處:確信愛與自由,比一切重要。自由,是精神超越的必要條件。愛,不論愛人與被愛,生命才顯示色彩。沒有愛與自由,漆黑一片,生不如死。一生未能忘懷的,是托爾斯泰的《戰爭與和平》。一生的摯愛,永遠埋在心底。一生追求的,是天上的雲彩。 Living in continuously changing times, I have been through a bitter period of life. I have seen the changes that went through in this century. I have entered into the magnificent world of Chinese Classic and Literature, and I have traveled through the plains of the West in my heart, this beauty is once again reborn. My principles that I bear in mind every moment comes from within my heart: the power of love and freedom are most important and towers over the other things in life. Freedom is state of mind which we all have to overcome. Love - no matter if you are being love or in love, the world seems much brighter, happier. Without love and freedom, life would be like blackness, living as though dead. One of life's most memorable moments was when I read Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace. The person I love most in this world would always be there, deep down in my heart. Chasing after those moments in life, is like chasing the clouds that drift across our skies.

邊緣的悲情------從新加坡的繁華說起

新加坡、香港、澳門、台北,都曾經殖民統治,在歷史的夾縫中,吸吮周邊的財富,不經意的成為「獨大」的城市。大凡殖民地必有獨大的城市,是種種人間悲喜事的劇場。
習慣夾縫之中的小空間,眼中的世界,也只有的獨大的城市。例如動輒拉出上海為對手,看不見比上海大的多的武漢;動輒強調世界級的城市,不外舉出紐約、倫敦之類,看不倒其他;數學校的地位,動輒列示哈佛、耶魯、劍橋;捨此無他,看不到亞洲有過千所學府。談大國的興盛,亦只有西歐、美國和日本,看不到旁邊的印度、印尼;更不曾理會非洲大陸。今天東非角的種族大屠殺,何人理會?新聞也懶得報導。
區區幾個矇矓的光點,便掩蓋視野,甚至標榜為追慕與競爭的對象。至今香港的免費電視整天頌揚香港,內容浮泛,是典型的例子。目光狹隘,是殖民地的思維定勢。
在四地生活,我感覺到的是一股抹不去的悲情,飄搖商業大廈的燈光之後。
