入秋後, 第一枚颱風[凡那比]離開之後
某些地方迅速地回歸原本正常的生活軌道
但她也留下了一片狼藉, 破壞了其他人的寧靜
好巧不巧, 寫下這篇網誌的同時
也是921大地震發生後的第十一年...1點47分。

真心地祈求: May God bless Taiwan,
Furthermore, God bless this world!!!

→→ 回到校園的第一天,這個晚上…

There was a big boy,
smoothly telling me a story about himself.
I was merely trying to make some small talk,
at the nighttime, the breeze blew tenderly,
he burst into tears in a sudden...
I was so attracted by THAT story,
and unwarily asking too many questions.
It was not an investigation,
but it was like a deep inquiry, I was stunned.

It was even too much for a grownup.
This idea just flashed into my mind,
let alone for a kid...it was too heavy to carry on.
but he stands tall to live until today,
with great responsibility for his own beloved.
Now the kid is no longer little,
the story has become part of the history,
but he is still full of emotions when talking over.
Everything just happened out of the blue...

What was a crashing change of life!
For me, I was more like a listener,
as a friend, as a counselor, as a spectator,
and I can even felt it function innermost,
that was how much it bumped my heartbeats.
I was imagining that straw in the wind.
Walking side by side,
I wanted to speak of something sweet though,
at the moments, I was unexpectedly choked.

It turned out that the guy next to me,
saying mature words to fix up the situation.
Feeling comforted, I just realized that,
the big boy was behaving so much a MAN,
just like after being through all of this,
by experiencing lots of complications,
he has become a real man,
who is capable to back up his own home.
From that, I got clear insight of him.

Not simply an overseas student,
Not only someone to be a teammate,
he is also very stubborn,
sticking to all the principles as others of Taurus;
he is also a man of sophisticated concepts,
so that he lives on reality,
but he is also of straightforward feelings,
so that he always expresses genuine-heartedly.
These are why this guy is so charming.

From the year we acted as co-fighters,
he has been one of my best friends.
I always know that he is smart and considerate,
but I just found out he is also very thoughtful,
not only because he becomes so prudent,
but also he keeps his true nature in any way.
I do appreciate that he gave me the chance,
now and then it couldn't be easy,
but he helped me break the ice wall before me,

After saying goodbye,
I breezed away along the street home,
and couldn't stop thinking of his words,
trying to keep in mind of every detail.
That was so novelistic but real of him tonight,
barely masked or covered in front of me,
and how lucky I was to be there all ears.
What an amazingly lovely night!
I was honored and he was transparent.

There was a series of steps towards life,
from a little kid to a so mature man,
looking upon all of this, so vivid and lively.
Originally I was responsive and talkative,
but I was in tears as I dug out something in me,
by watching a real touching movie of memories.
He was not much stronger than me, either,
when he heard that "at least, you got each other."
This is just the line to drive on the conversation.

+++從心開始+++

導演:Mike Binder
演員:Adam Sandler、Don Cheadle、Liv Tyler

巧遇,改變了兩個男人的生命線,在他們都需要一個值得信任的朋友
時。多年未曾謀面的查理和艾倫在曼哈頓街角偶遇,他們在大學時代
是同居室友,五年前的恐怖攻擊中,查理失去了他所有的親人,這個
傷痛徹底將他擊倒;對好友的不幸感到震驚的同時,艾倫也獨自品嘗
著自己的苦惱。
飛機衝撞進摩天大樓的那一天,親眼見證了烈燄焚身與尖叫墜樓的人
們滿身是灰、雙目失神地在紐約街道上晃盪著,像是失去重量的無主
遊魂一樣。從那一天起、直到六年後的今天,有些人至今仍在街道上
徘徊來去,尚未從驚嚇與恐懼中甦醒過來,還沒能從失去家園與親人
的夢魘中逃脫出來。也之所以,以後911創傷為題的《從心開始》除
了唐奇鐸與亞當山德勒兩位男主角之外,片中另一大重心便是在於紐
約這座令人醉心的城市。
片中許多場景都在紐約街景上度過,兩位主角乘著電動滑板車穿梭過
每一條大街小巷,漫步在人行道上與忙碌人群擦身而過。導演選擇從
城市內部觀點來審視這個負傷結痂的龐大都會,街道連接著街道綿延
不絕、放眼望去彷彿永不見盡頭,包圍在幾乎遮蔽住天空的高樓大廈
間,嘈雜的車水馬龍則化身為鼓動著的血液氧氣急速奔走,讓觀眾與
主角們儼然都成了這個巨大生命體的一部份,竄流傳遞著那永不止歇
的活力。
《從心開始》像是一封寫給城市的誠摯情書,實是承載著對紐約滿滿
的愛情,同時包容她美好與瑕疵的每一個面向。鏡頭掃過日常見慣的
平凡街景,帶到了每一個街頭巷角盤踞的青銅雕像,紅綠燈的號誌轉
換在導演細心巧思下竟有如芭蕾舞步一般輕盈,就連熙來攘往車陣裡
的催促鼓譟聲都像是天使號角般悅耳,那是屬於家鄉的一曲楚歌。

這部戲的故事情境 讓我回想起[窒愛](Brothers)
這部戲的呈現方式 讓我回想起[王牌冤家](Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind)
在一場意外中失去摯愛 不可抗力的感覺令人好無助
極力地尋覓原本的生活方式 卻越追求越封閉
從外在到內心 漸漸地不再信任任何人 不願想起任何事
那是一種極深沉的痛苦 科學家稱這樣的狀況為[創傷後壓力症候群](PTSD)
復原之路特別漫長 需要絕對的沉澱 完全的私密空間 和大量的愛與耐性
為什麼人生需要承受那麼多苦難 折磨著 罹難的和存活的人

德華說: All of this thanks to God!
我不明白這句話真正的意思
究竟是反諷著"The God brings us too much pain down to earth."
還是真誠地感激著"The God eventually still saves us from the hell."
縱然如此 無論如何 我也由衷認同他那句話—All of this thanks to God!
