随心笔:味道、仪式篇
味道篇
人生如味,酸甜苦辣咸。
所谓五味杂陈,多有贬义。
五位杂陈,才是圆满人生吧。
咖啡,就有苦,酸,甜。
味道过盛,对身体无益。
唯一例外,唯有苦涩。
然,我们都厌恶苦味。
身上散发的,都是酸味。
酸葡萄。
也许嘴上不说,你羡慕别人的还少了?
切莫让酸葡萄,变成了铜臭味。
五味,淡淡即可。
所谓甜丝丝,就是如此。
仪式篇
仪式很重要。
仪式,是一种提醒,让自己牢记,让别人莫忘。
祭奠仪式,就是莫忘祖先。
仪式,也是一种尊重,表示我们的重视。
毕业仪式,对那些勤奋学习,学有所成的学生表示重视,鼓励。
提醒其他人孜孜不倦地学习。
仪式,是一种提醒,一种重视,一种尊重。
莫忘了,仪式背后,提醒什么?重视什么?
莫要本末倒置了。
新年迎春,提醒什么?尊重什么?
谁的屋子布置华丽吗?
能吃上最美味奢华的大餐吗?
红包的行情很重要吗?
还是提醒我们破旧迎新,
记得布比受有福?

Random thoughts: Thankful for a satisfying day
Yesterday was a great day! I am thankful for it.
For those who read Rolf H2F3 post, it was one of the days where I feel everything is falling in place
We celebrated my wife's birthday. We didn't really celebrate birthdays beyond a meal at home due to Covind. I spent quite some time planning for this. While my wife changed the plan quite a bit to fit her busy tuition schedule, I can see she is visible happy about the meal out, and the surprise gifts we got for her, which are not expensive.
I also meet up with some secondary school friends for a game of volleyball, and I brought my son along. I could not recognise most of my seniors, but I nonetheless had a good 1 hour game. I could not play longer as I need to fetch my wife from work.
What really makes me happy is I used to be very anxious when I played a game with the seniors. This time round, I simply said I would like to play the role of a "setter", even to strangers. There are mistakes made, but it doesn't bother me anymore and I could really enjoy the game as it is. What I have been telling my pupils in my CCA to do, I finally is able to do it myself.
Even my son said he has the best game play ever and would really want to play more.
Although there is not much catching up with friends, I am just contented to have re-connect with my secondary school friends, even if it is just short whatsapp messages.
The time spent thinking and planning for my wife birthday celebration is really worth it. I realise I have spent so much time planning for my pupils' study and I have not put in as much thoughts for my family. Will try to do so more often.
