leave it behind

i entered 2007 with pain and frustration.

i now enter 2008 with uncertainty. uncertainty means change that may lead to something new or with hope. don't want to complain anymore. let things turn out positively.

I don't belong here in heaven

Don't know why - i recalled this song of Eric Clapton when i saw this scene from the window of a jet a few thousand metres in the air. It needs just a few baby angels with wings in order for the scene to become so religious, like the pictures on the ceiling of cathedral St Sistine. I wonder how artists such as Michelangelo were able to paint pictures like this without having risen to this height to capture the heaven-like scene.

Would you know my name ?

If I saw you in heaven

Would it be the same?

If I saw you in heaven

I must be strong and carry on

Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven

Now, the day of Silent Night, looking at the photo again, I see the hand of God, in the foreground, caressing the pain of the human. Do you?

今夜星光燦爛

過程

喜歡到郵局去，因為有過程。

去之前，會有點準備，至少要儲起或購買要寄出的物件。到達郵局，在信封或郵包面填寫收件人名和地址等資料，再量量物件的重量，乘以目的地及空郵／平郵方式的因素，計算郵資，然後會收到幾張不同面額、彩色繽紛的郵票，如採用空郵，還會有幾張藍色、醒目、細細的航空label，將所有東西拼貼在郵包上，霎時畫面"充實"不少，將郵件投進郵箱那一刻，感覺像送禮物似的（有些又確是禮物呵），再想像收件者收到後有甚麼表情，感覺踏實... ... 雖然人在遠方。
