Being Free

2011-08-30T06:51:00.000-07:00

being free like a little bird to your dreamland...

"to fly free and high up from the earth
to reach the top of mountain,
or cross the deep blue ocean"
wind will guild you to your derection

Everything will be alright : )

WHEN I HEARD AT THE CLOSE OF THE DAY

2011-08-23T19:41:00.000-07:00

While all was still
I heard the waters roll slowly continually up the shores,

I heard the hissing rustle of the liquid and sands
as directed to me whispering to congratulate me,

For the one I love most lay sleeping by me
under the same cover in the cool night.

万籁俱寂的时候，
我听见潮水悠悠卷上海岸，

我听见流水与沙砾的嘶嘶声响，
仿佛对我轻轻道贺，

因我最爱的人，卧睡在我身旁，
在凉夜里，在同一袭被盖下。

Melbourne Anzac Day

2010-04-29T04:44:00.000-07:00

After Drawn Service, people gathered at Federation Square and waited for the parade start.

Russell St

Street art, Hosier Ln

The main streets were packed with parade and visitors, and I felt a little bit uncomfortable with crowd. Then I was wandering in some backstreets. They are so quiet and mythic. I like exploring a city in that way, no map, no information research, and it always surprise you.

If you love something, set it free.

If it comes back to you, it is yours;

if it doesn't, it never was.

- Alison Willcocks

You x 2 ?

Do you believe soul mate? Technically, they exist. It’s like another you in the world. But would you be pleasure to accept ‘yourself’? Some people may.

What I believe is that people are not fated to be together. They met, they fell in love and they work hard on their relationship.

If people come from different circle, have different dreams, can they have a happy ending? If understanding is the key, sometimes saying not understand is shown much more understanding than saying understand.

Or love is just a chemical response which makes you feel ‘you are in love’. But when the magic is over, what love is? Just ugly truth, or warmth stories?

People always say ‘your life is about yourself’. But what is myself? Deeply inside, I want to see the world; I want to experience differences; I want to take an adventure like there is no tomorrow. Can I be the person I dream to be?

- Be true to yourself. But which one is true me? and what am i be afriad to lose?

if i am a bird, i would be happy just being a bird

being able to fly free and high up from the earth

i want to reach the top of mountain, or cross the deep blue ocean

wind will guild me to my derection, yet i don't know where is great destination

i only know that one day i will be tired

couln't move further in the empty sky

I will look for a tree to hide

and i will fly back to your side

can't wait to fly back to your side

向前走。

走一步。

再走一步。

又一步。

继续向前走。

努力向前走。

一步接一步。

昙花一现的生命旅程，

我们总在赶路，

然而路的尽头是希望，还是失望，

是住着天使，还是住着魔鬼？

如果早知道会失败，

是不是就不要那么辛苦努力？

过程真的比结果重要吗？

我们总在赶路，

忘记如何停下脚步。

我们总在赶路，

穿梭在每个心之所向，

来不及欣赏沿途

意外的惊喜。

为何不暂时停下来，

欣赏花的美丽，

吸饱花的香气，

再继续上路？

每个人都是一只寄居蟹，流浪者其实渴望家的温暖，孤傲的人只是更希望被理解，外表冷漠不削的人其实内心多有不安，他们只是把孤独，冷漠，高傲做成自己的壳，给自己防护和安全感，去守护内心的温柔。

由于昨晚很早睡，今天5点半就醒了。索性早点起来做点事，可最想做的第一件事，还是打开电脑，去看你的Space　:)

７点出门，早上的阳光很好，让人的心情也变得shining起来。很久没有这样早上悠闲地走在街上了。悠悠地走到火车站附近的一家面包店吃早餐。咖啡，新鲜的面包，阳光，街景，其实开心真的可以很简单。如果此时你在我身边，我们会开心吗？

那天离开，我难过，可却有一种release的感觉，这更加让我为我们难过。

我仍关心你，只是我们还需要一点点的时间去想起一些些的美好。

Two days escape to Mackay

2009-08-14T04:53:00.000-07:00

其实一个人的旅游没有想象中的惬意，但也没有第一天到达时那么的沮丧。第一天的心情真的不怎么好，出门就没方向感，地图这种东西对我来说是helpless, 拿着地图，我也能反着走。周末很多地方都没开，本来就没什么人的地方，更为显得冷清。再说这种偏远的地方，公交系统不发达，没车在这里旅游 -- 真的是件很痛苦的事情。（上图为Mackay机场附近）

冬末，上午10点的Mackay, 热得跟盛夏一样，在街上闲逛了一个多小时，口干舌燥，最后只能回到住的地方check in，然后躲在房间里吹空调睡大觉 Zzz...

下午4点多，Pioneer River 的河滩，午后的阳光把河边的枯草照得格外的美。

可爱的手绘旅游广告，拍于 Farleigh Mill的接待室外。 Farleigh Mill (Sugar Mill) 是一座始建于1833年的制蔗糖工厂。

不过我感兴趣的是这里成片成片的Sugar Cane 的美景, 至于Raw Sugar是怎么制成的，实在没兴趣知道。而且进厂房，又是头罩、头盔，又是眼罩、又是耳塞。带着耳塞，还要听讲解，真的是件很让人困惑的事情。

原以为一个人旅游会有很多quality time去想想自己的事情，仿如这段时间，你可以从原本的生活中escape出来，只有你自己。这两天，虽然没有想很多的东西，也没有顿悟什么人生道理，可倒有点喜欢上了这种自在。

West End Green Flea Market

2009-05-05T05:52:00.000-07:00

这个周六(2nd May)对West End Flea Market来说是特别的一天，由于这礼拜过后整个市场要被Southbank Market的manager统一管理，所以部分摊主决定撤出这个市集。

"Yes, we are here next week. "

每次去west end，都会enjoy在音乐，鲜花，新鲜便宜的蔬果，和homemade的美食中，觉得生活原本就应该这样的单纯美好。

My favorite Langos~　The booth owner always making the same joke.

- Could you cut it half for me?

- Sure, and that costs 2 dollars.

...

" Goodbye, Green Flea, and we will miss you... "

不知道换了management后的market会是怎样的面貌，也许会比较商业化，不过喜欢自由的人们，终究会找到属于自己的乐土。

time to home

2009-01-18T09:04:00.000-08:00

Udaipur, my last stop in India.

This is a quiet, clean and tidy town, like nowhere else in India. The landmarked Lake Palace is surrounded by the Lake Pichola, and the lake surrounded by mountains and town buildings.

I stay in a small hostel right next to the lake, and I can see the palace from my window. In the morning, I am not going out early for taking pictures but rather lying on the bed. Sunlight come through the window and drop on my bed, increditably soft. I really wish you were here.

But you are not. So I miss the days we had lunch in the street corner park, and then I laid on your legs. Sunlight come throught your hair and drop on my face, increditalbly warm.

My dear, I am going home.

Let's go back home.

离开你的第十五天

2009-01-06T07:17:00.000-08:00

Yula,

I know you may feel alone without me by yourside, because I feel the same way. Now I realise it may be a little bit stupid to leave you so far away and for such a long period. But I am glad to know our hearts are still attached and they will keep attached for a very very very and very long while.

There are another 25 days to go untill I see you again. I will keep everything I see in mind and will share you all I experience these days. Please take care yourself the days without my care, work less, eat well and rest better, remember to be happy and please think about me just once for a while.

I love yu.

Yan

你离开的第七天

2008-12-29T02:47:00.000-08:00

记得送你离去后，在机场站台等车回city时，一股伤心忍不住，眼泪就开始一直流。等我想擦干眼泪时，瞥见坐在我身边一位头发花白的老先生，他的眼眶居然也满是泪水。一个已经经历了大半个人生风雨的人，又是怎样的离别让他如此伤感？转而想想自己，突然觉得很释怀，I know when you are far far away...you are still close to my heart.人只是偶尔容易陷入自己的小情绪中罢了。

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

今天闲着没事就去slq那边转转，一下公车，就有一个可爱的老伯伯送了我一朵花并说'Happy New Year'，谢谢他的花，伴我渡过了一个愉快的下午。

有的时候没有目的地乱转，是件很愉快的事情，没有schedule没有task,只是单纯地enjoy你身处的地方，看看你生活的城市和，和你一起生活在这个城市里的人们。

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

这本Our Living Earth是买给你的。喜欢Yann Arthus-Bertrand的摄影，加上对环境问题的关注，让我觉得它是一本很值得买的书，希望你会喜欢。这个世界上除了自身的生活，的确还有很多值得我们去关心的事情，虽然一个人的能力没有办法改变世界，但是我们还是可以做出自己的努力并enjoy其中。

即使, 我们没有办法改变整个世界，但我们至少可以改变自己的世界，或者一段关系。

Yan：
I'm sorry about that you lost cameras in India. I know how hard it is for you, just stop blaming yourslef. It's not helpful.

I was moved when you said you can lose everything, but me.

For me, I want to say 'Something you can't get back when it lost, but thank you for be there for me when I pushed you away. Thank you for standing beside me. Thank you for waiting... You were meant for me as you known'.

Miss you and hope see you soon.

我们一起看晚上的海，

一起欣赏海边点点的灯火;

我们一起看日出时候的海，

一起欣赏它的宁静和绚丽;

我们一起看正午时候的海，

就如同我们一直期盼的一样...

这是我最喜欢的武汉景象之一，很土，很老武汉。可能是因为我从小在弄巷中长大的，每每看到这样的小巷就会有种莫名的亲切。每个人的故乡都会在他/她的身上留下一辈子的烙印，不管离开多久多远，这些细微的记忆都会牵扯着每一根神经。可能是一种气味，一种声音，一个场景。

在异地，虽然会孤单，会无助，会缺乏归属感，可是也告诉自己，不可以这么容易被打败。

Today is beautiful, tomorrow will be perfect~

Brisbane Storm, November 2008

记得在国内，下雨在路边等雨停，会看到人们的不同态度，有的人很焦急，有的人很无奈，有的人甚至会因此而烦躁，最开心enjoy下雨的应该是小孩，好像是一个意外的礼物。

很开心地和你一起遇到暴风雨，拥抱在一起，一起欣赏大自然的演出，一起发出惊叹，一起淋湿衣衫，就这样相互依偎在一起。。。

PS: 当然也为在这场风暴中受灾的人们表示遗憾

But she is also sensitive.

So there are some while she feels unhappy.

So that is why Yan need to think so hard about how to cheep up Yula,

and make her smile all the time.

酒醉清醒后，居然有点睡不着。想起很多事情来。

记得有天约好午饭后在教室见（至于要做什么现在也记不起来了），当时我住校，觉得冬天中午难得太阳很好，所以就在寝室一直整理东西，晒被子，等我到教室，已经快要上课了。你看起来很不开心，然后上课我传纸条问你‘怎么了’，你生气故意说‘牙痛 ’，后来你才告诉我，觉得一个人在那里等我很傻。也许在当时我觉得没什么，反正你都要来上课的，反正教室很多同学朋友在一起，我只是做我觉得应该做的事情，耽误了一点时间，可是我忽略了你等我的心情。不记得有没有和你道歉，或许你也已经不记得这件事了，十年了，希望你现在有遇到值得你等待的人。

16岁的爱情，或许只是一种化学反应，一见到就心跳加速，第一次打电话，还会紧张到语无伦次，第一次牵手觉得整个世界只剩下你们俩。记得学完画画，我们经常会去操场玩，还会用掉落的树藤编戒指，很多年后，那个戒指还有那年夏天树的香气，也曾经就这样以为自己是世界上最幸福的人，不过这样的’以为‘的确美好。谢谢你陪我渡过了美好的16岁，并让我们慢慢学会去爱。

和你去看花

Morning : )
………………miss you

HI･
･
･
How was your day today?

Almost on every working day, I can receive these lovely words from you.
Every night, we keep having a talk on phone before we go to sleep, and say ‘good nite’ or ‘good dreams’ to each other.

It could be not so much content of these letters and conversations, but each letter you sent out means you are thinking of me and saying you care, and I feel more peaceful by hearing your voice before sleeping.

'Sometimes, the message it sends is likely much more important than what you actually say'.

No matter how long the calls and letters could last, I just want you to know they are meant for me and I appreciate for all of these.

Hope you had a good night : )

Still remember the first date I arrived Brisbane at 21st Oct, 2005. A QUT staff picked me up at the airport. For me, it was a strange country with the strange landscape and surrounded by strange strangers. But on the way to my homestay’s place, I was totally impressed by the Jacaranda trees. I have never seen so much beautiful and blooming trees before. I have been Brisbane for three years so far. Every year I expect the time to see these magic purple clouds.

Now it is more enjoyable for me, because you are there.

book

You are a book.

It has a nice cover, and it aslo has inspirational content.

It maybe a little bit hard to understand,

so I would like to spend my life to read it.

The story of the stone

2008-10-22T04:34:00.000-07:00

我有一块小石头......

石头不说话，石头不唱歌，

石头不生气，石头不兴奋，

石头不做梦，石头不旅行，

石头不期待未来，石头不挂念往事，

石头不恋爱，石头什么事也不做，

石头只固执地想当个真正的石头，

石头真是无聊。

石头说自己的话

石头唱自己的歌

石头生气时只有自己知道

石头兴奋时非常低调

石头做梦时不让你猜到

石头用特殊的方式旅行

石头当然期待未来

石头也缅怀往事

石头谈自己的恋爱

石头做了好多奇妙的事

是的

石头固执地只想当个

真正的石头

石头觉得自己

好精彩

你心中也有寄不出的情书吗？

2008-10-18T07:16:00.000-07:00

《海角七号》中七封迟来的情书，表达了最真实的思恋。可是不明白，他当年为什么没有勇气将它们寄出，只到他过世，他的女儿在清理遗物时，才发现这沉积了六十年的情书。可是随着城市的发展，信上的地址已经变更了，于是，在这个海边的小城市发展出了一段段的故事。

整部电影都没有拍到写信人和收信人的脸，最后小邮差终于将信送到时，在后院，只有一个寂寞老妇人的背影，小邮差没有打饶她，而是默默地把信放到她身后，然后静静的离开。这些迟来的情书真的能给一位老妇人死去的心带来安慰吗？可是不管怎样的安慰，他们都耗尽了人生最美好的时候，错过了彼此一生。

The places we have been before

2008-10-18T05:53:00.000-07:00

在我们熟识之前，
我们曾经到过同样的地方旅游，
遇见过同样的人物和风景，
然后同样迷恋上这个城市；

在我们熟识之前，
我们曾经住在同一个suburb，
去同样的小餐馆吃饭，
坐同样的公车去学校，
然而我们从不曾遇见对方；

也许我们总是在不同的时间出现在同一个地方，
又或者我们曾经有过许多次的擦肩而过，
然而我们只是无意间出现在对方眼帘的陌生人，
转身，然后忘记。

也许这是命中注定的缘分，
既然是注定，
何不好好享受它的安排

The places we used to go

2008-10-18T05:12:00.000-07:00

I have walked around the places we used to go,

picked up all those fragments of memory we lost here and there,

then I know I still love you.

If this is our destiny,

we have no way to escape.
