身體健康 生活愉快

爸爸走了剛好兩個星期，但感覺上是已經很久似的。

可能我一直在忙吧？

這個星期我們決定把所有的傢俱重新擺設。

新的家開揚了，就像心境一樣。

收拾的時候，重溫了自從離家到美國工作後，爸寫給我的生日和新年賀卡。

然後發覺，這些年來，爸寫的都一樣：

「祝身體健康、生活愉快！」

爸，我會好好活着，會身體健康，會活得快樂！

讓我睡吧

印像中，除了馬馬虎虎的生日歌以外，從來沒有唱過歌給爸爸聽。想不到，那天大家一起唱的 Amazing Grace，便成為唯一一首，也是最後一首我們唱給爸爸聽的歌。

很多事情很多說話，總要等到最後一刻，才會甘心樂意去做。

The Smiths "Asleep"

Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
I'm tired and I
I want to go to bed

Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
And then leave me alone
Don't try to wake me in the morning
'Cause I will be gone
Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I will feel so glad to go


Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
I don't want to wake up
On my own anymore


Sing to me
Sing to me
I don't want to wake up
On my own anymore


Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I really want to go


There is another world
There is a better world
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well ...


Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye ...

爸爸．．．再見！

爸爸在今天早上安然回到天家了。

爸爸走的那一刻，我們各人都在他身旁，握着他的手跟他道別。我深信他現在已經躺臥在青草地溪水旁，開心得快樂得無比。

而且，有一天我們會再相見，我們可以再吃煎蛋西多士，我可以再為你焗焙你最喜愛的麵包，再加咖啡或奶茶。我可以完成我還沒有做完的粽子．．．如果我早一點包粽子，那天的事可能就不會發生。

但這有什麼關係，總有一天你我也會分開。

正如有一天，我們會再相聚一樣。

巨人

爸爸，永遠是我心中的巨人。

可是，他倒下前的一句話，卻令我很心痛很心痛。

（爸爸中風了．．．腦裡有大量積血，現正半昏迷。）

有了你 了不起

I didn't have a good impression about 張敬軒, since I thought that he's a bit exaggerated, and the lyric is often difficult to understand (at least to me).

His newer song 《笑忘書》 is one of those songs that I don't quite get it. I was guessing together with a friend that may be it's a story of someone who committed suicide? Or is it talking about the confusion and struggles one has to go through when getting older?

Either way, it reflects the sad reality of growing up (at least to us who are over 30:)

「人大了．開心都想哭」
「我　前路有右與左　面對抉擇難兼顧」



《老了十歲》 is again a sad story--you really will get an extra 10 years after listening to it!

A more positive song I've listened to so far is 《遇見神》. Oh well, overall it is still a "sad" story--if we haven't encountered with God.

It was nice talking to you, hum, although there were quite a bit static because of your basement :-)

Mom said dad wasn't feeling good these days. Hopefully things are getting better for him.

After hanging up with mom, I have a stronger urge going back to Toronto instead of going anywhere else.

爸 爸 ， 我 為 你 驕 傲 !

Happy Father's Day!

Seven reasons I'm proud of my father....

1. He fearlessly defeated cancer three times.
2. He started up his own business in his 50's and carried on with it for 18 years.
3. He is optimistic.
4. He loves his children and his wife!
5. He treated me breakfast before he brought me to church when I was small.
6. He does not have temper.
7. He loves eating and cooking!

(Mom, I'll write up something for you later =)
