Deep Emotion

The melody that sings in my heart....
Listen here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBDWRTW6LHM&feature=related
The One I Love
_Jordan Chan
Qu: Zhou Jie Lun
Music: Jay Chou
Translated: wywy86 & laruku - www.jay-chou.net
我知道故事不會太曲折
wo zhi dao gu shi bu hui tai qu zhe
I know this story is pretty straightforward
我總會遇見一個什麼人
wo zong hui yu jian yi ge shen me ren
I will find someone
陪我過沒有了她的人生
pei wo guo mei you le ta de ren sheng
To accompany me along the life without her
成家立業之類的等等
cheng jia li ye zhi lei de deng deng
Settle down, good career and everything
她做了她覺得對的選擇
ta zuo le ta jue de dui de xuan ze
Since she's made the choice she thinks is right
我只好祝福她真的對了
wo zhi hao zhu fu ta zhen de dui le
I can only give her my blessings
愛不到我最想要愛的人
ai bu dao wo zui xiang yao ai de ren
I can't love the person that I really want to
誰還能要我怎樣呢
shui hai neng yao wo zhen yang ne
What else can I do?
Chorus:
我愛的人 不是我的愛人
wo ai de ren / bu shi wo de ai ren
The person I love is not my lover
她心裡每一寸 都屬於另一個人
ta xin li mei yi cun / dou shu yu ling yi ge ren
Every inch in her heart has been taken by the other person
她真幸福 幸福得真殘忍
ta zhen xin fu / xin fu de zhen can ren
She's really happy and this happiness is cruel
讓我又愛又恨 她的愛怎麼那麼深
rang wo you ai you hen / ta de ai zen me na me shen
Makes me love and hate how can her love be that deep
我愛的人 她已有了愛人
wo ai de ren / ta yi you le ai ren
The person I love has a lover
從他們的眼神 說明了我不可能
cong ta men de yan shen / shuo ming le wo bu ke neng
The look in their eyes tells it all, it's impossible for me
每當聽見 她或他說(我們)
mei dang ting jian / ta huo ta shuo (wo men)
Everytime I hear them use 'we'
就像聽見愛情 永恆的嘲笑聲
jiu xiang ting jian ai qing / yong heng de chao xiao sheng
It's just like love, laughing at me, eternally

Rainbow

Life is a beautiful rainbow...
and if you want to see the rainbow,
you must endure the Rain!

The One









Along the way she never fails
Saving our souls from deepest alleyways.
Some are greatful while some are hateful;
Knowledge to reap what we had sowed.

Going on with Time

Cherry

Again, it is the time
that Cherry flowers are blooming.
Pink and white,
Fragile and innocent,
on the bare branches ---
Open heartedly
welcoming the Spring
when the new leaves are turning green.

His Birthday


He would wonder
Why?
Why his daughter had to suffer?
Father like daughter.
Give their lives for the goodness of others.
He would be very proud of her.

Chinese New Year

It's the year of rat/mouse. Winter is almost over. White apple blossoms are blooming again. How lovely the weather is? The flowers always elevate the mood. And I have received this pamphalet about Chinese New Year last Friday. It said:

Chinese New Year is celebrated in January or February each year. It marks the coming of spring and new beginnings. The holiday is celebrated in China, Vietnam(Tet) and Korea(Sol). It is usually a two week celebration. The week before the holiday, families clean their homes to sweep away all traces of misfortune. Shops and homes are decorated with lanterns, flowers and bright banners. The color red and fireworks are used to frighten away monsters and evil spirits and to gain the attention of the Gods. On the night before the New Year, families celebrate with a family dinner, board games and midnight fireworks. On New Year's day, children are given gifts of money in red envelopes and often visit neighbors and friends, with gifts of food and wishes of good fortune. On the last day of the festival, children often march in a lantern parade.

I wanted to keep this pamphlet for some reason.

Rambo

I support Rambo IV.
However,
I am very hesitant to watch
this movie.
Because,
knowing that it would break my heart,
and leave me with
many sleepless nights
and tears.

Children Book of the Day















I sat by the lake.
I looked at the sky,
And as I looked,
A fly went by.

A fly went by.
He said, "Oh, dear!"
I saw him shake.
He shook with fear.

And when I saw that fly go past,
I asked him why he went so fast.
I asked him why he shook with fear.
I asked him why he said, "Oh, dear!"
He said, "I MUST GET OUT OF HERE!"
The fly said, "LOOK!
And you will see!
That frog!
That frog is after me!"

The fly went past!
The frog came ... FAST!

I asked the frog,
I asked him, "Why__?
WHY DO YOU WANT TO GET THAT FLY?"

The frog said, "Me?
I want no fly.
But I must hop,
And this is why ..."
"That cat!" he said, "Just look and see!
That cat," he said, "is after me!"

Then he was gone
With one big hop.
The cat ran up,
And I said, "STOP!

Now, stop! Stop! Stop!" I told the cat.
"Do not pick on the frog like that!"

The cat said,
"Look, I want no frog.
I have to get away from ...

"DOG!!"

SO...

The fly ran away
In fear of the frog,
Who ran from the cat,
Who ran from the dog.

One ran from the other.
The other ran, too,
From one who came after.
Now what could I do?

Away past the lake
Went the fly and the frog.
Away past the lake
Ran the cat and the dog.

They went past a shed,
And they went up a hill.
I ran! And I said,
"I will stop them, I will!

The fly does not know that the frog is not mad.
The frog does not know that the cat is not bad.
The cat runs in fear of the dog, I can tell.
If I can stop HIM, then all will be well!"

I ran a lot.
I ran so fast,
I came up to the dog at last.
"Now, stop!" I said.
"Yo are the one
Who did all this!
Why do you run?
Why do you want to bite that cat?
Oh, yo are bad to be like that!"

The dog said, "No! That is not so!
I want no cat.
The cat can go.
I do not want to bite the cat!
I run to get away from THAT!"

"THAT PIG!!"

"That pig!" he said.
"Look back and see!
SHE likes to bite,
And she wants ME!"

SO ...

The fly ran away
In fear of the frog,
Who ran from the cat,
Who ran from the dog.
The dog ran away
In fear of the pig.
My, she was mad!
And WAS she big!!

I said to the pig,
"So YOU are the one
In back of all this!
Now, why do you run?
Now, why should a pig bite a dog?" I said.
"And why are you mad?
Are you out of your head?"

The pig said, "I am NOT out of my head!
See what is after me! Look!" she said.

"That cow will hit me," said the pig.
"Those things up on her head are big!"
So the pig ran past.
She ran past ... FAST!
Then the cow ran up,
And a little cow, too.
I said, "Now what got into you?
Do not pick on the pig, you two!"

The cow said, "Pig? The pig can go!
That is not why we run__oh, no!
But some one bad has made us run!
He wants to kill my Little One!"

I asked the cow,
"Who wants to kill
Your Little One?
Why, no one will!"

The cow said, "Look!
Up on the hill!
The fox is there!
He comes to kill!"

The cow and little cow ran past.
All full of fear they ran past
... FAST!

SO...

The fly ran away
In fear of the frog,
Who ran from the cat,
Who ran from the dog.
The dog ran away
From the pig__and now
The pig ran away
In fear of the cow!

They came to the woods,
And there was a tent.
But they did not stop!
In and out they all went!

And last came the fox,
So HE was the one
Who made them all run!
Yes, he was the one who was bad, I could tell.
If I could stop HIM, then all would be well!

I told the fox,
"Oh, shame on you!
Oh, shame, shame, shame
For what you do!
You want to kill the little cow!
You stop, or I will whip you__NOW!"

The fox said, "Now what did I do?
Why do you say, "Oh, shame on you'?
I tell you I would never kill
That little cow!
I never will!"

The fox said, "This is why I ran__
Back in the woods I saw a man!
I saw a man!
He had a gun!

He wants to get me!
Let me run!"

SO ...

The fly ran away
In fear of the frog,
Who ran from the cat,
Who ran from the dog.
The dog and the pig
And the cows__they all ran!
And then came the fox,
Who ran from the man!

They came to a house
And went down the hall.
And when they went out,
There was a big wall.
But that did not stop them.
Oh, no__not at all!

They ran and they ran.
They came to a town.
They went up one way,
And then they went down.

They went up one way,
And then down another.
They ran and they ran,
One after the other.

They came to a bank,
But they did not stop.
They went in the bank
With a jump and a hop!

With a jump and a hop
They ran in__and then
They went out the back way,
And ran on again!

I ran as fast
As I could run.
I told the man,
"YOU are the one
In back of this!
You are the one
Who wants the fox!
Put down your gun!"

"Fox? Fox? the man said, "No!
I saw no fox,
But I must go!
For you should see,
Yes, you should see
The thing that now is after ME!"

"I did not see it," said the man.
"I took my gun and then I ran.
For I could hear it bump and thump
It was so bad it made me jump!
It was so bad it made me fear!
It was so big! It was so near!
It must be ten feet tall!" he said,
"And big and fat and bad and red!
Why, it can bite and kick and kill!
And it will do it! Yes, it will!
I hear it will do it! Yes, it will!
I hear it now! Come on, I say!
For I must run and get away!"

"BUMP!" "THUMP!"
The man ran past
Fast . . . Fast. . . FAST!

What did I hear? A bump and thump!
It was so bad it made me jump!
I was about to run away,
But then I saw the thing __and, SAY!

It was not tall!
It was not mad!
It was not big!
It was not bad!

Was THIS the thing
That made them run,
And made them fear?
Was THIS the one?

It was a little sheep! So tame!
It came to me, and it was lame!
I saw what made the bump and thump.
I saw the thing that made me jump.
The sheep said, "Look at this tin can!
I can not get it off! I ran!
I ran for help! I saw a man.
I went to him, but then HE ran!
Why did he run away from me?
I just want help, as you can see."

I said, "I will get help for you!
And I can help the others, too!
For now I know just what to do!"

"Oh, man!" I called, "Come back! Come here!
This is a sheep, so have no fear!
The sheep wants help, for it is lame.
Come back! Come here!"

And then he came!

And then the man
Took off the can

But still the others ran and ran.
They did not know about the can.
I had to call so they would hear.
I had to tell them not to fear.
I had to tell them all was well.
And so i gave a great big yell . . .

"STOP!!!"

I said to them all, "You must not run away!
No one is after you! No one, I say!
You all ran away__ and now I know why.
I sat by the lake, and there came a fly.
The fly ran away
In fear of the frog,
Who ran from the cat,
Who ran from the dog.
The dog ran away
In fear of the pig,
Who ran from the cow.
She was so big!
The cow ran away
From the fox, who ran
As fast as he could
In fear of the man.
That man heard a thump,
And away he ran!
It was just a sheep,
With an old tin can!"

I looked at them all,
And then I could tell
They all had no fear,
And now all was well.

They all went away.
They all waved good by.
So . . .

I sat by the lake
And looked at the sky.

Lightening








Silence---
Are we silent?
Why?
Time to heal?
Time to deal the reality?
Time to continue our journey?
Altogether
with you and me.
Louder than the thunder;
Let's go
Show what we are made of,
Courage, bravery, love, and honesty.

Better or For Worse

I took a little journey inside myself today.
I stumbled over some conclusions,
that came along the way.

I stopped, and took a listen
to what they had to say.

I heard them….
Verse to verse!

“Before it can get better,
it has to get worse”
