Juncture of Confusion

Sometimes, you just get into a dilemma. A tough situation which you tend to follow what others are doing.

You forgot that you have a dream. A dream that brings you to where you are today, and will continue to fly you to the land, which you once imagined before.

You forgot that you are yourself.

When people talk about dreams, you become skeptical about it. You said that is impossible, that isn't the reality and that isn't the way things work.

You forgot to stop and stare.

And, one day, you realise, where is the you that have taken the road not taken?

Disney and Dreams!

Disney came to LSE today.

The talk is quite boring actually, since their main intention is to promote Disney corporation in the EMEA region. However, I love the way how the external communications guy conveys their message.

Enthusiastic. Cool. Funny.

There's one line which I find it quite memorable.

"There's no company in the world which you can speak about magics, family, and fairy tales, and the employer's eyes are beaming."

I have always been wondering about how's it feels like to be working in Disney. The ultimate combination of imagination, creativity and practical skills. In Disney, an engineer is given the most amazing name I have ever heard.

Disney Imagineer.

This reminds me one of the famous quotes by Walt Disney.
If you can dream it, you can do it.

笔下的感触

周末的旅行,的确让我重拾失去了许久的感触。

爱丁堡-一个充满文学艺术,也背负着血淋淋的历史故事的国度,让我见证了原来,最美好的,是会永存的,是等待别人来发掘的。

我有时在想,当我们被课业压得无法喘气时,出去走一走,不仅让身心得以平衡,也让思绪得以沉淀。

站在Arthur's Seat的高峰上,俯瞰大地,然后被那平静的夕阳感染着,整个人就似乎得到前所未有的解脱。哦,我指的是,灵魂上的解放。

你,多久没有看到夕阳了?
你,多久没有努力去攀爬高峰了?
你,多久没有让你的灵魂吸一口新鲜空气了?

或许,在好朋友的陪同下,在无尽的笑声中,在穿梭历史与现代的交接处时,我们才发现,我们其实要求一点也不多。

Untitled Thoughts

It's gonna be a long night
a long long journey
sitting down at the crossroad
contemplating the way after this

From this moment on
you begin to see
you begin to feel
you decide to be blind

shut the door up
thinking about the question
you finally
had the answer.

gone are the days
when you fly the kite
and your heart soars
like an airplane.

The eyes
facing the crowd
hiding the sorrow
and you
decide to go home

安静

沉默不语,有时候,是最好的方法,来面对多变的世界。

原来

原来,英国的夜空,是橙色的。万里无边,却看不见任何星星。

你会想,浪漫的夜空,被灯光照耀着,应该是美丽的,却因为过量,所以,抹煞了那温柔的晚上。原来,过了量,就等同于没有用。

曾经,把自己搁在自己的躯壳后面,失去方向的灵魂,留宿街头,拥抱着理想,独自面对那寒冷的夜。

原来,人家说,越靠近黎明的夜晚,越寒冷,是没有错的。

理想,有时候,可以很伟大,也可以很纯洁。通常,我们都会美化自己的梦,不容许有任何的瑕疵。但是,慢慢长大后,拉开那幕帘,看见现实的情况,你会开始怀疑当初的坚持。

原来,我们长大后,怀疑多过相信,是应该骄傲的成熟?抑或是应该遮盖的丑陋?

我曾经以为自己做对了一些决定,却不知道,那决定影响了别人对我的看法。鱼与熊掌,真的有时候无法兼得。

最近,想得太多了。是时候利用文字来发泄。
