A Tug-of-War Between Character and Destiny

Character shapes destiny, 

and destiny, in turn, reshapes character. 

Character then boomerangs back 

to impact destiny. 

In this continuous, revolving loop, 

at any frozen moment in life, 

inherent traits and environmental influences 

are always locked in 

a tug-of-war.

性格影响命運，

命運又返轉頭影响性格

性格又回力鏢再影响命運

如此迴轉影响，

在生命中任何那點定格，

先天和後天都在角力。

My Little Lover「DESTINY」

If I could feel you, 

If my feelings could reach you a little more, 

That my tears would overflow— 

I have only just remembered that right now.

The signals from my heart are in disarray, 

I laugh at myself for swaying between two extremes. 

Unable to even make sense of things anymore, 

I was unravelling the days as they passed by. 

The present moment begins to spin right here. 

The closer I get, the further away it feels, 

Swaying like the ocean, 

But if you are swimming out there too, 

We will surely meet when the time of fate arrives.

Entwining our fingers together, conveying 

The fragility and beauty of this life. 

Even if this world comes to an end, 

If I can just remember you, 

If I can feel you even more, 

That my tears would overflow— 

Even though I knew it all along, all along. 

I love you, I love you, 

With just those simple words.

The closer I get, 

the further away it feels, 

My feelings are still swaying, 

But if I could embrace you, 

If I can feel you even more, 

That my tears would overflow— 

Even though I knew it all along, all along.

如果我能感受到你 

如果我的心意能更深地傳達給你 

淚水便會奪眶而出—— 

此時此刻，我終於想起了這件事

來自內心的信號正一片混亂 

我嘲笑著在兩個極端之間搖擺不定的自己 

連自圓其說都已經做不到 

只能任由流逝的逝水年華自我解嘲 

而「現在」正於此處開始轉動 

越是靠近，卻顯得越發遙遠 

雖然像大海一樣搖晃不定 

但如果你也正身在其中向前游著 

在命運到來之時，我們一定能相遇

十指緊扣，藉此傳遞著 

這段生命的脆弱與美麗 

即便這個世界走向終結 

只要我想起你 

只要能更深地感受到你 

淚水便會奪眶而出—— 

明明我一直、一直都是知道的啊 

我愛你，我愛你 

僅僅憑著這句簡單的話語

越是靠近，卻顯得越發遙遠 

我的心意雖然仍在搖擺不定 

但只要我能緊緊擁抱你 

只要能更深地感受到你 

淚水便會奪眶而出—— 

明明我一直、

一直都是知道的啊

Funny Routines

Life is mainly a series of routines. 

The art of living is to find 

the most fun in those routines.

 

Suzanne Vega - Tom's Diner

I am sitting 

In the morning 

At the diner 

On the corner 

I am waiting 

At the counter 

For the man 

To pour the coffee 

And he fills it 

Only halfway 

And before 

I even argue 

He is looking 

Out the window 

At somebody 

Coming in 

"It is always 

Nice to see you" 

Says the man 

Behind the counter 

To the woman 

Who has come in 

She is shaking 

Her umbrella 

And I look 

The other way 

As they are kissing 

Their hellos 

And I'm pretending 

Not to see them 

And instead 

I pour the milk 

I open 

Up the paper 

There's a story 

Of an actor 

Who had died 

While he was drinking 

It was no one 

I had heard of 

And I'm turning 

To the horoscope 

And looking 

For the funnies 

When I'm feeling 

Someone watching me 

And so 

I raise my head 

There's a woman 

On the outside 

Looking inside 

Does she see me? 

No, she does not 

Really see me 

'Cause she sees 

Her own reflection 

And I'm trying 

Not to notice 

That she's hitching 

Up her skirt 

And while she's 

Straightening her stockings 

Her hair 

Has gotten wet 

Oh, this rain 

It will continue 

Through the morning 

As I'm listening 

To the bells 

Of the cathedral 

I am thinking 

Of your voice 

And of the midnight picnic 

Once upon a time 

Before the rain began 

I finish up my coffee 

And it's time to catch the train

Mutual Defensive Mechanism

Some people are very defensive because 

they want to protect themselves from 

being harmed or hurt by others who 

purposely blame them 

when something goes wrong.

Usually, defensive people have difficulty in 

making good friends because 

they are usually very 

reserved and detached 

when interacting with less defensive people, 

who expect more openness from their friends.

However, defensive people can still 

form good friendships with others 

who are similarly defensive. 

This is because both sides maintain 

a safe interaction distance; 

neither can easily 

harm or hurt the other, 

and can be easily 

harmed and hurt by the other.

Elton John - Friends

I hope the day will be a lighter highway

For friends are found on every road

Can you ever think of any better way

For the lost and weary travelers to go?

Making friends for the world to see

Let the people know you got what you need

With a friend at hand you will see the light

If your friends are there then every thing's all right

It seems to me a crime that we should age

These fragile times should never slip us by

A time you never can or shall erase

As friends together watch their childhood fly

Making friends for the world to see

Let the people know you got what you need

With a friend at hand you will see the light

If your friends are there then every thing's all right

Making friends for the world to see

Let the people know you got what you need

With a friend at hand you will see the light

If your friends are there then every thing's all right

To Celebrate the Father's Day or Not

Mother’s Day has just passed in May.

Father’s Day is coming soon in June.

From my own observations,

over the past ten or twenty years 

in Hong Kong, 

Mother’s Day has always been

much more popular than Father’s Day.

In general, many fathers are more reserved

when it comes to expressing feelings.

So children often respond in a similar quiet way—

communicating with their fathers less openly,

and showing affection more subtly.

That’s why fewer people will

make a big, public show of

celebrating Father’s Day.

Fathers also rarely take the initiative to

ask their children to celebrate Father’s Day.

Compared with that, mothers are different—

they’re often more likely to ask 

their children to celebrate Mother’s Day.

Maybe, more everyday reason is

how the business world works.

There are fewer businesses

promoting their products or services 

for Father’s Day—

（specially florists.

Since not many fathers are

truly excited about receiving flowers）,

children naturally feel 

less pressure to celebrate.

But honestly,

whether we celebrate Father’s Day or not—

it’s mostly just a formality.

Sometimes your father suddenly

becomes gentle and

shares a few pieces of advice with you.

Better listen carefully.

It takes a lot of courage for him to

say those words out loud.

Cat Stevens - Father and Son

It's not time to make a change

Just relax, take it easy

You're still young, that's your fault

There's so much you have to know

Find a girl, settle down

If you want you can marry

Look at me, I am old but I'm happy

I was once like you are now and 

I know that it's not easy

To be calm when you've found 

something going on

But take your time, think a lot

Think of everything you've got

For you will still be here tomorrow but 

your dreams may not

Oh, how can I try to explain?

'Cause when I do he turns away again

It's always been the same, same old story

From the moment I could talk

 I was ordered to listen

Now there's a way and 

I know that I have to go away

I know I have to go

It's not time to make a change

Just sit down, take it slowly

You're still young, that's your fault

There's so much you have to go through

Find a girl, settle down

If you want you can marry

Look at me, I am old but I am happy

All the times that I've cried

Keepin' all the things I knew inside

It's hard but it's harder to ignore it

If they were right I'd agree

But it's them they know, not me

Now there's a way and

 I know that I have to go away

I know I have to go

五月的母親節剛過去，

六月的父親節快來了。

個人觀察，香港近十多二十年，

母親節遠比父親節受歡迎。

一般的父親對子女的

感情表達都較為內歛，

子女於是也多回應以內歛的方式

與父親溝通及作感情交流。 

於是也少主動高調為父親慶祝父親節。

做父親的也很少主動要求

子女為她慶祝父親節。

相比之下，做母親就不同了，

她們會更主動要求

子女為她慶祝母親節。

更生活日常的原因是，在商業世界，

較少商家會借父親節促銷其業務或產品，

尤其是送花業務，

很少父親會很熱衷收到花禮物的。

因此子女也較少在群眾壓力下慶祝父親節。

其實慶不慶祝父親節，

儀式而已。

有時父親突然很溫柔說給你聽

他的幾句意見，

請好好聆聽，

他也需要鼓起很大的勇氣才

說得出那幾句意見。

Blossom Together

If being the flower of the plant

with its flowering season in mid-June—

take this chance to blossom

with the other flowers of the season,

see who is the loveliest.

Blooming too early feels isolating;

blooming too late feels lonely.

若是這種六月中是花期的植物的花，

趁著花期與其他同期花一起綻放吧，

還可以互相爭妍鬥麗。

花開得早，會很孤獨；

花開得遲，會很寂寞。

松たか子『花のように』(像花一樣）

當我回望風吹過的風鈴聲時，

我看到了夏天的天空。 

向日葵小路上有個穿白襯衫的男孩 

你消失到哪裡去了？

我只是請你稍等一下。 

我在哪裡看到了這麼多令人眼花撩亂的人？

像花一樣像風一樣永遠在我心裡 

如果可以回去 

如果可以回去 那天的霧霾

送走夏天的煙火突然被我肩膀抱住 

一個痛苦的溫柔的吻而不是告別 

我咬著嘴唇，低著頭走著。 

我還是無法知道你為何流淚

像花一樣像風一樣還在我心裡 

如果可以回去 如果可以回去 

那天的霧霾

如果你現在在這裡，你會怎麼說？ 

還很遠，在我的旅途中，

那個夏天已經很遠了

像花一樣像風一樣永遠在我心裡 

如果可以回去 如果可以回去 

那個夏天

How Fragile All Are

In this age, 

everything is changing fast and 

is more fragile than ever:
Life, feelings, beliefs, love, and faith;
Relationships, careers, jobs, and hobbies...

How do the people involved deal with it?

這個年代，萬事變動越加脆弱：
生命、情感、信念、愛情、信仰；
人情、事業、工作、愛好……
牽涉其中的人如何面對？

Sting - Fragile

If blood will flow when 

flesh and steel are one

Drying in the color of the evening sun

Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away

But something in our minds 

will always stay

Perhaps this final act was meant

To clinch a lifetime's argument

That nothing comes from violence and 

nothing ever could

For all those born beneath 

an angry star

Lest we forget how fragile we are

On and on the rain will fall

Like tears from a star 

like tears from a star

On and on the rain will say

How fragile we are 

how fragile we are

On and on the rain will fall

Like tears from a star 

like tears from a star

On and on the rain will say

How fragile we are 

how fragile we are

How fragile we are 

how fragile we are

Long Time No See

The person you haven’t seen for years, 

and who you haven’t heard from in years.  

Today you met him, 

or today you heard his news.  

Has he changed greatly?  

Is the younger version of him now more mature?  

As for the older version of him—

does he remain full of spirit today?  

The years have passed; 

the environment has changed—

so has his life.  

How did he get through it? 

What has he gained, and what has he lost?  

If he is someone you like, 

then send him more blessings—

Time and life continue moving forward.

多年沒見的人，幾年沒消息的人。  

今日遇見，今日聽到他的消息了。 

 

他有大改變嗎？  

以前年輕的他，現在成熟了嗎？  

以前年老的他，今日仍精神嗎？  

之間的時間流逝了，環境改變了，

他的生活——  

他是如何渡過的呢？

他有什麼增進了，又有什麼掉失？  

他若是你喜歡的人，就送給他更多祝福。

時間與生命，續續前行。

Long Vacation - Piano Solo

All Kinds of Birds Sing

My home was once plagued for years

by flocks of pigeons.

Pigeons don’t really “sing”—

they just emit a low, “gulu gulu” noise, 

and they leave droppings everywhere, 

making the place dirty, shabby, and

foul-smelling—unbearable.

Residents repeatedly complained 

to the authorities, 

and the pigeon-repelling efforts 

eventually worked.

Now we only occasionally

see a few flying by,

and it’s no longer a major nuisance.

But recently, I’ve noticed

some twenty parrots

moving in and staying long-term.

Their loud, ear-splitting chatter 

constantly disturbs me.

I have already lost control and

felt mad.

One evil fades, only for another

to arise—

life has non-stop nuisances

I can never avoid.

我的家居附近多年被白鴿群聚騷擾，

牠們不會唱歌，

淨是發出「咕噜咕噜」低頻雜聲，

且到處排便，污糟邋遢，臭氣難忍。

居民多次向當局投訴，

驅鴿行動終見成效，

現只偶爾看到幾隻飛過，已不足為患。

可是最近又發現十多隻鸚鵡長駐，

吵鬧刮耳，長期被擾好易失控發顛。

一惡減、一惡生，

人生總是不停有控制不了的纏擾。

The Beatles - Blackbird

Blackbird singing in the dead of night

Take these broken wings and learn to fly

All your life

You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Blackbird singing in the dead of night

Take these sunken eyes and learn to see

All your life

You were only waiting for this moment to be free

Blackbird fly, blackbird fly

Into the light of a dark black night

Blackbird fly, blackbird fly

Into the light of a dark black night

Blackbird singing in the dead of night

Take these broken wings and learn to fly

All your life

You were only waiting for this moment to arise

You were only waiting for this moment to arise

You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Anchors in the Chaos in Life

Life is adrift—

we must find some anchors in the chaos.

浮生漂浮。

在失序中尋找依靠。

tuki.『声命』Seimei~TBS系日曜劇場「キャスター」

(Caster 新聞主播) 劇中歌

甚至不記得了 

我被迫攜帶的東西 

我走路，儘管我的腿感覺​​到它

如果只有一個答案 

我可以毫不猶豫地留下來嗎？ 

這真是太幸福了 彷彿在呢喃

迎著風吹散沙的時候 

用布把字藏起來

這爆炸的人生 

我正在尋找我可以相信的東西 

我們手牽手走在人行道上 

因為溫暖依然存在 

我無法拋棄小小的自己

感覺手掌開始乾燥 

即使你感覺不舒服 

那聲音瀰漫在我的身體裡 

就像沙子剝落落下

這人生爆炸了 

我想知道他們正在努力留下什麼。 

我踩著影子追去 

因為你的背還在 

我無法拋棄小小的自己

Jokes in the form of Lies

Many people like to tell lies (false statements) 

to protect themselves.

Among them, some tell lies in exaggerated ways

 to make sure that other people understand that 

they are not making false statements.

Don't worry, many people know that these liars

are not being literal when they say these things—

and kindly treat them as making jokes.

tuki. - 《騙シ愛》（Damashiai)

(TBS 電視台日曜劇場（Caster）主題曲)

在這充滿欺騙的愛情世界裡，

我苦苦尋找可以信賴的東西。 

我不會再失去它。 

我為什麼要說謊？ 

為什麼我無法說出真相？ 

你會露出怎樣的表情？ 

你不是在保護自己嗎？ 

這一切都不是我想要的 

我讓你看起來如此悲傷 

甚至還不知道月亮的陰暗面 

我只是在做夢 

在欺騙的愛情謊言中 

我想要一雙能夠找到信仰的眼睛 

未來仍充滿未知 

但請不要背叛我的心，

我不會再失去它 

我為什麼學會了說謊？ 

我為什麼要隱藏真相？ 

我會假裝不知情 

我已害怕觸碰 

如同青澀中成熟的果實 

在我悄然凋零之前 

我只想你輕咬一口 

在虛幻愛情的黑暗中 

我只記得曾經感受到的溫暖 

未來仍充滿未知 

但請不要背叛我的心，

我會過自己的生活 

我越掙扎，就越迷失，

真相也漸漸消逝 

我還能記得觸碰你手的感覺嗎？ 

在這虛幻愛情的世界裡，

我渴望擁有能夠看透一切、

找到信仰的眼睛 

未來尚未定論 

請不要背叛我的心，

摸索前進也無妨 

讓我塑造自己 去遇見你，

一個可以與我分擔痛苦的人 

我們終會相遇 

An Astronaut Far From the Earth

Becoming an astronaut is so awesome。

I admire them for having

the intelligence, knowledge,

and physical strength required

to become an astronaut.

What I admire even more is that

they don’t have the claustrophobia (幽閉恐懼症) .

Earth is so near, yet still so far.

能成為太空人真勁。  

我很羨慕他們擁有成為太空人所需的

智力、知識與體魄。

我更羨慕的是，他們沒有成為太空人不好出現的

幽閉恐懼症（claustrophobia）

地球似近還遠。

Barclay James Harvest - Negative Earth 

For fifty-five days

I've been flying around the world

Didn't anybody know, 

didn't anyone suppose

That my life up here was 

slowly drifting by

And all I've got to do is 

sit and cry

The Earth is so clear and 

it's simply a reach away

I just had to laugh today but 

the news it seemed to say

That my life once full was 

surely running dry

I prayed a while but then 

I had to cry

Look in my eyes - I know

That man is surely just a man

It's no surprise - I know

The road is far too long

And life too short to carry on

For fifty-five days 

I've been flying around the world

Here in syncopated time, 

while my tangled web of rhyme

Dangles aimlessly, time drips slowly by

And all I've got to do is 

sit and cry

Look in my eyes - I know

That man is surely just a man

It's no surprise - I know

The road is far too long

And life too short to carry on

Harm is Still Done

In normal human relationships,

people often hurt each other.

Some people even devise plans

to hurt others on purpose.

However, most people hurt others accidentally

without even realizing they have done so.

But the harm is still done,

and God will treat them the same.

________

King Gnu -「白日」

Sometimes, without even realizing it,
I accidentally hurt someone.
Only after losing everything do
I begin to understand
the mistake I made.
It’s already too late, you know—
like it was in the past.
Even that dazzling, brilliant time
from long ago—
I still have to take steps
forward toward tomorrow.
Even if it’s snowing a whole sky full of snow,
it’s the same.
For the me of right now,
what exactly can I do?
what exactly can I still become?
If it’s for the sake of living for someone—
then it isn’t possible to
just “do the right thing,” is it?
If we could meet one day,
somewhere on a street,
would you still remember my name?
At that time, surely—
there will be the gentle breeze of spring.
Transfom into a brand-new self—
start over, begin again,
live a whole new life.
On the tightly connected
endlessly stretching road,
I am moving forward right now.
Say goodbye to
everything pure and spotless.
A whole sky full of fluttering,
scattering white snow.
Please, accept all of me.
At least, for today is enough.
Hide away everything.
It’s already too late, you know—
like it was in the past.
Even if it’s so enviable—
I still have to take steps forward
toward tomorrow.
Even if it’s snowing a whole sky
full of snow,
it’s the same.
Back then, laughing as we always did—
I mistook it,
thinking we could understand each other.
We missed the signs—
those ambiguous hints.
A never-ending searching,
looking for where the problem lies.
Over the seasons.
If we could still meet—
could you still call out your name?
Transfom into a brand-new self—
start over, begin again,
live a whole new life.
Just a single layer of skin left there—
connecting the head and the body.
This helpless “now.”
No matter what, I have to keep living.
Say goodbye to everything
pure and spotless.
A whole sky full of fluttering,
scattering white snow.
Right now, please freeze my heart—
so that I can forget all of the past.
Can I open my eyes one day morning
and become someone somewhere else?
That’s impossible, isn’t it?
Just pretend you didn’t hear anything.
In this everyday life that isn’t busy,
the only thing that gets layered
on top of everything is age.
On the other side across the way—
waiting for me, in the end:
is it heaven or is it hell?
No matter when,
humans are slow to realize things.
Not knowing what they’re plotting
in their stomachs.
But even so, they still love—
and are loved.
To know that living on is already a fate
that’s decided.
What a life full of regrets—
and mistakes that can never be made up for.
There’s always one or two,
everyone has them, don’t they?
Isn’t it just like that?!
So damn frustrating.
Transfom into a brand-new self—
start over, begin again,
live a whole new life.
On the tightly connected,
endlessly stretching road,
I am moving forward right now.
Say goodbye to everything
pure and spotless.
A whole sky full of fluttering,
scattering white snow.
Please, accept all of me.
At least, for today is enough.
Hide away everything.

有時會在不知不覺的之中不小心傷害某人

當失去之後才開始意識到自己犯下的過錯

已經回不去了喔, 要像過往一般

就算是那麼的閃閃發亮的從前

也必須要向明天邁去步伐

就算下著漫天大雪也一樣

對現在的自己來說

到底能做些甚麼

到底還成為甚麼

如果是為了甚麼人而活的話

是沒辦法竟說些＂做正確＂的事情的吧

如果能在某處的街上相遇的話

還能記得我的名字嗎？

到那個時候一定　吹拂著春風的吧

蛻變為一個全新的自己　重頭開始再一次人生吧

在緊緊相連不斷延綿的道路上現正邁步

向純白無垢說掰掰

漫天紛飛的白雪喔

請包容我的全部吧

至少今天也好

將所有隱藏起來吧

已經回不去了, 要像過往一般

就算是那麼令人羨慕

也必須要向明天邁去步伐

就算下著漫天大雪也一樣

那時既如往常般的笑著

誤以為彼此能互相理解

看漏了的曖昧的徵兆暗示

沒有終結的尋找著問題所在

越過季節

如還能相遇的話

還能呼喊你的名字嗎　

蛻變為一個全新的自己　重頭開始再一次人生吧

靠僅剩連接頭與身體的那一層皮

無能為力的現在

無論如何也要活下去

向純白無垢說掰掰

漫天紛飛的白雪喔

只有現在請冰封我的這顆心吧

讓我將所有的過去都忘記吧

能不能哪天早上睜開眼後變成某處的某個人呢

這是不可能的吧

請當作甚麼都沒聽到

在這不忙碌的日常之中

被重疊增加的只有年齡

在對向的那一邊

等著自己的究竟

是天堂還是地獄

不論何時人類都是遲鈍的

不知道肚子裡在打著甚麼主意

不過就算這樣還是愛著與被愛著

知曉活著走下去是已經決定好的命運

真是充滿後悔的人生

怎麼也無法彌補的過錯

總會有一個或兩個

任誰誰都會有的吧

不就是這樣嗎？！

真是不爽

蛻變為一個全新的自己　重頭開始再一次人生吧

在緊緊相連不斷延綿的道路上現正邁步著

向純白無垢說掰掰

漫天紛飛的白雪喔

請包容我的全部吧

至少今天也好

將所有隱藏起來吧

Good Dream Good Luck

All along, I always have bad dreams. 

Last night, however, 

I had a few good dreams, 

and I became quite worried because 

I was told that, in dream-interpretation, 

what happens in a dream corresponds to 

the opposite situation in real life. 

So a good dream means bad luck. 

I must be Ah Q at this time: 

I told myself, this time is an exception—surely, 

a good dream means good luck.

一直以來,我總是發惡夢。

然而就在昨晚, 我發了幾個好夢，

這反而讓我十分擔心，

因為曾有人告訴我:

在釋夢的領域裡，

夢中所發生的事，

是對應著現實中的相反情形。

所以, 好夢就意味著壞運氣。

此時我一定得像阿 Q 一樣自我調解，

我對自己說，這次是個例外——

肯定是, 好夢意味著好運氣。

Ruth B | In My Dreams | CBC Music Festival

The lights are bright tonight, the music loud

A perfect mess, that's what surrounds me

Then I see you over there, 

I can't seem to break the stare

Maybe it's 'cause your shirt is my favorite color

Then you walk on over with a smoulder

And you hand me your number, 

I say, "What is this?"

You say, "Love at first sight, it exists"

But I've had my heart broken 

so many times before

Yeah, I've walked through 

so many empty doors

But if I see you in my dreams tonight

Then maybe you were right

Then I'll call you in the morning

If I see you in my dreams tonight

And you take my hands and tell me

"I've been waiting for you"

Then I'll tell you, "Me too"

If I see you in my dreams tonight

I start to drive away and smile like I'm insane

How can I feel this way? 

I don't even know your name

The napkin doesn't say

Then I remember that I vowed not let 

anyone enter my heart

I say, "What is this?"

I know love at first sight can't exist

But if I see you in my dreams tonight

Then maybe you were right

And I'll call you in the morning

If I see you in my dreams tonight

Then you take my hands and tell me

"I've been waiting for you"

Then I'll tell you, "Me too"

If I see you in my dreams tonight

Maybe we'll meet in a different dimension

And you can tell me all the things 

you didn't mention

Maybe we'll meet in a different dimension

And you can tell me all the things 

you didn't mention

You'll say, "What is this?"

I'll say, "I guess love at first sight exist"

'Cause I saw you in my dreams that night

And I knew that you were right

So I called you in the morning

(In the morning, in the morning)

Yeah, I saw you in my dreams that night

And you took my hands and told me

"I've been waiting for you"

And I told you, "Me too"

Yeah, I saw you in my dreams that night

If I see you in my dreams tonight

Bad Friends

Looking back, every stage of life

came with a few “bad friends.”

Spending time with them can

make life feel a lot diverse.

Different “bad friends” contribute

in different ways,

so in my mind there’s even

a “best bad friend” vote.

But as time goes on,

I found my personality traits and life views

did not really match with 

those“bad friends”.

But the truth is, these so-called “bad friends” may

simply be people whose values,

lives and day-to-day routines

moved in directions that diverted from mine.

And yet, if I forced myself to keep

treating them as close friends,

it would become really tiring and painful.

If being around them caused

negative changes to my life,

then I could only, reluctantly,

create distance from them.

However, there should be some other people

who could share these ”bad friends” ’s 

ways of thinking 

would consider them as 

real “good friends”.

回想過去，每個人生階段都有些損友。

與損友交往能令生活的內容豐富了不少。

損友的貢獻不同，

所以心目中有最佳損友的選舉。

但時間一長，

損友與自己不契合的性格及人生觀漸漸顯現。

但所謂損友，

可能祇是大家道不同，

與他的人生及生活相左，

但焗住做好朋友就會好辛苦。

與損友交往若會對自己人生有負改變,

只能無何奈何與他疏遠。

其實損友對與他道相同的人往往是真正益友。

Bees Gees - Sweet Song of Summer

I can feel you sweet song of summer
Your music comforts my lonely reign
I can hear you in evil darkness
That empty feelings, I'm near you again

I am yours forever and this I emphasize
Your never-ending hurting and criticize

We are friends forever and this I emphasize
Your never-ending hurting and criticize

Be Who You Are

It is not easy to be who you are.

Life does not allow you

to make no compromise

when interacting with others.

Someone may be clever enough

to allow himself to make

only small compromises

without breaking his bottom line.

But the bottom line is always set

to be broken—

uncontrollably, unexpectedly,

and unpredictably.

The Bee Gees - Be Who You Are

Be who you are
Don't ever change
The world was made to 

measure for your smile
So smile

Those crazy dreams
We threw, we threw away
I've never been alone with you
I never could
They say

That love will find a way
And love will never be set free
And I won't ever let you be
You could not understand
You never will

Be who you are
I bless, I bless your name
And all that summer madness 

caused the rain
And we, we

The glory that we made
My love will grace the halls of time
For love that never can be mine
You could not love me then
I love you still
