Stay Foolish

在人生里,不断学到各种经验。
这些不管怎么样,总会不小心记得。
又不断强迫自己丢弃。
才可以崭新看待这个世界。
可是总有残留物。慢慢积累,不及时清理,会越长越多,最后被它打倒。

在争论进行太快而入戏太深的时候,只会赶快想下一句,最好强过上一句,然后就忘记当初想要的结果。
在追逐太烈而入戏又深了的时候,只要得到前面的目标,然后下一个目标,然后又忘记当初追逐的原因。
在世事里面不断修炼得人情练达的人,是不是真的了解自己?

人和人是多么相似。
可是又各个不同。
每个人都讨厌被同类化。
希望遇到崭新的人,被崭新双眼看待。
可是,有经验的人们,只看一眼,就可以迅速分门归类,好像脑袋里放了中药店一排排的小匣子一样。
这些被归类的人,同样去视觉模糊的看别人。

经验的可怕之处,在于让我们没有真凭实据,就快速做出判断,还沾沾自喜。
经验很多时候很准确,因为,也许是不爱清理也许是追逐太烈,大部分人最后还是殊途同归,不外是名利权福禄寿。
经验才会如鱼得水。

Gone so soon….

Day 3 Full bloom~~

It looked nothing like the tulips we saw in stores.
The petals grew in different directions and transform into these wild shapes, thriving with life…
The colors looked like last rays of sunshine burning through the clouds right before sunset.
This glorious flower made everything else in the room look insipid in comparison. Objects around it quickly faded into the background.

Day 4 Taking a line from “the blade runner”, “The light that burns twice as bright burns for half as long – and you have burned so very, very brightly…..”

These last couple days had been unusually warm, too warm for tulips. From the way it looked last night, we knew it reached the pinnacle point. We hurried and took pictures even though the lightening from the lamp was completely uncomplimentary.
I put it back outside the next morning.
By the time we got home, the flower had already turned brittle and dry.

Day 5 Gone in the wind….
The flower was completely gone. Only the stem was left. We looked near and around the patio for traces of the petals and found nothing. I felt the rough wind on my face, and gave up on the search.

After thoughts…
We planted two seeds back in December. After three months of staring at the blank surface of nothing but brown dirt, we saw the first sign of green in February. After that, I woke up every morning and found it bigger and taller. This Monday, it burst into a flower . Five days later, we found ourselves starting at an empty stem again.

I watered my much neglected, leafy, non flowering, yet long lasting plant today, and thought about that age old question, “Is it better to burn out or fade away?”

I ran through these pale green leaves with my hands. They may not look as lavishing as tulips, but at least I can put my hands on them. Ha!

Well, see you next year tulips!

春天来了

下午太阳还很耀眼的时候,我看了下表,已经5点半了。改了夏令时,好像突飞猛进,跑步进入春天了。
在冬天里,我最爱下午四点的光景。如今,要改成六点了。

我走在回家的路上,太阳一直烤着我的上额角。我左拐右拐,走在树荫里,还是逃不掉。等车的时候,躲在电线杆子后面,过马路的小人一闪,太阳又能准确的找到我的上额角了。

到家发现,一只郁金香的花完全长起来了,另外一只还在闷头疯长叶子。
果然没有辜负我,浓郁的开出了介于红色和橙色之间的。。um。。。红橙色。郁金香真是慷慨毫不吝惜的花儿,花瓣丰厚长大,颜色又浓烈。
这样热烈的花,一天天长大在我们的花盆里。我自己都觉得是奇事一件。

在家做饭+带饭上班+如此低调

在夜色里,望进world market,一进门口,就拦住人的正是这口美丽的锅。
上面的条纹惹人遐想,它做出来的带着美丽条纹的panini,该有多么诱人。这么懒的两个人,都禁不住矫情的想到,买它回家好好做顿饭吧。
。。。。当然之后还要更加矫情的拍照记录.

说到底,到底是铁锅一口。 盖子和锅。都是。死沉。
这样沉,茄子也能压出黑条。
panini做的时候没拍,卖相不好。味道太好。所以只忙着吃了。

看起来平常的午饭。可是出自不平凡的锅。多么低调,只有我们自己知道。

血橘子。里面也是无比艳丽饱满的颜色。虽然外形低调的好像发育不好的橘子。
