Paradox of Our Times

Paradox of Our Times
我们这个时代的尴尬

Today we have bigger houses and smaller families; more conveniences, but less time;
我们居住的房屋越来越宽敞,家庭却越来越小型化;可以享受的生活便利日益增多,属于自己的时间却日趋减少;

we have more degrees, but less common sense; more knowledge, but less judgment;
我们获得了一张又一张学位证书,却愈加频繁地陷入对常识的茫然中;我们广泛地涉猎各类知识,却越来越缺乏对于外界事物的准确把握和判断;

We have more experts, but more problems; more medicine, but less wellness.
我们的专家越来越多,问题却也日渐增加;药物越吃越多,健康却每况愈下。

We spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get to angry too quickly, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too often, and pray too seldom.
我们花钱太疯,笑容太少,开车太快,怒气太盛,熬夜太晚,起身太累,文章读得太少,电视看得太勤,祷告做得太少。

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too little and lie too often.
我们不断聚敛物质财富,却逐渐丢失了自我价值。我们的话语太多,真爱太少,谎言泛滥。

We‘ve learned how to make a living, but not a life; we’ve added years to life, not life to years.
我们掌握了谋生手段,却不懂得生活真谛;我们让年华付诸流水,却不曾将生命倾注其中。

We have taller buildings, but shorter tempers; wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints.
我们的住房越来越好,脾气却越来越糟;我们行驶的道路越来越宽阔,眼光却越来越狭隘。

We spend more, but have less; we buy more, but enjoy it less.
我们付出很多,可获得的很少;我们购买了很多,可从中得到的乐趣却很少。

We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbor.
我们能够往返于地球与月球之间却不乐于穿过马路向新邻居问好。

We've conquered outer space, but not inner space. We've split the atom, but not our prejudice;
我们可以征服外部空间,却慑于走进内心世界。我们可以击碎原子,却不能突破思想偏见;

we write more, but learn less; plan more, but accomplish less.
我们写得很多,可学到的很少;计划很多,可完成的很少。

We've learned to rush, but not to wait; we have higher incomes, but lower morals.
我们学会了追赶时间,却没学会耐心等待;我们拥有的财富越来越多,道德品质却日益沦丧

We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies, but have less communication. We are long on quantity, but short on quality.
我们生产更多的电脑用于存储更多的信息和制造更多的拷贝,而相互间的交流与沟通却越来越少。我们拥有的是数量,缺乏的是质量。

These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion; tall men and short character; steep profits and shallow relationships.
这是一个快餐食品和消化迟缓相伴的时代;一个体格高大和性格病态并存的时代;一个追名逐利和人情冷漠相生的时代。

More leisure and less fun; more kinds of food, but less nutrition; two incomes, but more divorce; fancier houses, but broken homes.
我们的闲暇多了,乐趣却少了;食品种类多了,营养却少了;双薪家庭增加了,离婚率也激升了;居室的装修华丽了,家庭却残缺破碎了。

That’s why I propose, that as of today, you do not keep anything for a special occasion, because every day that you live is a special occasion.
因此我奉劝大家,在当今这个时代,不必为某个特别时刻保留什么,因为我们生活的每一天都是特别的。

Search for knowledge, read more, sit on your front porch and admire the view without paying attention to your needs.
探索知识,遨游书海,坐在门廊前欣赏眼前的景色,把所有烦恼抛在脑后。

Spend more time with your family and friends, eat your favorite foods, and visit the places you love.
留出更多的时间与家人和朋友一起分享,吃遍天下美食,游遍你心中想往的名山大川。

Life is a chain of moment of enjoyment, not only about survival.
生命是由快乐时光组成的一个链条,而绝不仅仅是一种生命的存在。

Use your crystal goblets. Do not save your best perfume, and use it every time you feel you want it.
举起你那水晶酒杯开怀畅饮吧,不要吝惜你最好的香水,只要想用就尽情地用吧。

Remove from your vocabulary phrases like “one of these days” and “someday”. Let’s write that letter we thought of writing “one of these days”.
将“今后某一天”这类的话语从你的词汇中删除,现在就把你想在“今后某一天”写的信件写了寄走。

Let’s tell our families and friends how much we love them. Do not delay anything that adds laughter and joy to your life.
不要把对家人和朋友的爱深藏心中,大胆地告诉他们。对于能给你的生命增添快乐的事情,不要押后拖延。

Every day, every hour, and every minute is special. And you don’t know if it will be your last.
每一天,每一小时,每一分钟都是特别的。你怎么知道这会不会是你的最后一刻。




再说一次我爱你

记得那天你坐在我的面前
你的意愿很明显等我的表现
我说改天等我有足够时间
我一定给你一次完美爱情的宣言
多想抓紧每一瞬间
只怕故事已是昨天
才明白忽略是我最大的缺陷
我真的好想再说一次我爱你
我愿意放弃所有一切只为换回你
如果时间能够为你而倒流
真的好想牵著你的双手再说一次我爱你

回忆已经没有你在我面前
看什黱也会感到厌倦我闭上双眼
多想两个人盖一张被
一同刷牙一同洗脸
才明白错把机会借给了明天
我真的好想再说一次我爱你
我愿意放弃所有一切只为换回你
逃避原来不是面对的道理
看清自己种下的可惜重复後悔的延续
喔我真的好想再说一次我爱你
我愿意放弃所有

刘德华-一个人

漫漫的长夜充满着冰冷
无情的孤单穿过了体温
你都是一个人
只有一个人脆弱的灵魂
空空的房间只有一盏灯
你说你其实很容易平衡
就算满脸泪痕
也不愿他心疼
为什么爱的那么认真
爱的那么深
却甘心一身伤痕
明明他继续四处漂泊
不闻不问
也不愿面对他的不诚恳
你真的甘心一个人
就算你傻傻的等
就算你一再容忍
你总是珍惜自己的单纯
当做是一种付出的原则
你还是一个人
还是那一个沉默的女人
你说你明白所有的分寸
不愿去逾越幸福的规则
守住他的余温
就守住了一生

Today I work until 9pm… my colleague organize her friend to give me a lift to the train station… when I saw him in the dinner time he said he will leave the place at 10 pass 9, I got all my things done and finally when I got out the exit it was 9.09pm… I waited there for 11 minutes and when I see no one coming out from there I left the place and rush to the train station… luckily there are some people there and I don’t have to wait long for that….

Am feeling really down and moody today… cried when I was on the way to the train station… never being so brave to get home from the place that is far from my house… I know it is normal to do so for most of you… but maybe I was being pampered or whatever, never being like that before…

When I reach city I can’t be bothered to wait for the bus anymore… I took taxi until the front door of my house… I feel a lot better when I got home… when I worked in the morning; I was being rushed by my colleague to get most of the things done… I’ve left one sandwich that I haven’t done… so she kind of like trying to blame me… so I can’t stand it anymore and I said I got only 2 hands… I can’t work faster than that…

Anyway was feeling down just now and feel a lot better now… can’t be bother to type now as I am pretty tired… will be continue….

Nothing had changed

Can’t remember how many days I’ve been abandoned my blog… been busy lately… had been working too much… the morning shift is getting busier and lots of work to catch up… been losing weight again :s… not really eating a lot nowadays… no time to eat and no appetite to eat…

So yeah… after working will be slacking at home or will gone out to catch up with friends… getting to know more and more friends nowadays… especially some of the friend trying so hard to make me explore in their friend’s place…

Been thinking too much and complaining too much about life… not sure what is wrong but maybe my heart and my soul is not working in the same way… when something gone wrong I will show it out straight away… won’t and will not keep it anymore…

Even though it is tired from work, but I am happy because the boss and managers are happy with my working attitude… started my training today in a new place… it’s a very boring site… it’s a no no for me to work there in future :s…

The day shift’s manager is a bit funny and he called himself monkey -.-/// one of my colleague said he got his training from the zoo, so I asked him what animal he wants to be… since then we called him monkey and sometimes will call him gorilla LOL… he got his sense of humor so we can jokes around at work…

Got lots of chocolates from work… there are all types of different chocolate… there is something wrong happened lately… someone had been sending me some funny letters and present, but no name stated… not sure who is that and what is his intension to do so… anyway… I can’t be bothered…

Alright nothing much for me to update… whatever is unhappy is still unhappy whatever happy it’s still happy… nothing really changes…

Yesterday I was frustrated… because my mum called me and her phone was lagging badly… that time I was frustrated because I heard a decision from my manager that they want me to work in the morning workplace at night from 18th to 25th as training… I don’t really like it because it will opposite the cemetery and it will take me forever to come home at night :s… I might need to talk to my manager soon… grrrrrrrrr… might consider that if company paying me allowance to catch a taxi home :x… so yeah I did throw my tantrum to my mum when she called me… anyway she understand and knows I am frustrated so she told my kai yeah to comfort me… unfortunately I haven’t got time to speak to them nicely yet…
