Thoughts beyond my life & my travel - Bel

  星期六下午，一班人合力畫圓圈畫，很是新奇，畫紙由十二張普通A3紙組成，我們十二人，不同背景，但又有著不同的經歷，但都很享受和珍惜這次活動的安排。 部分人很專注著眼前部分的畫紙，研究如何以大陽和笑做題材創作。我就不假思索，圓圈內加了星星和一些禪繞的筆法，很簡單地自由地畫，但也留意著身旁朋友如何畫她們的圓圈，我們笑說有一個似菠蘿，另一個簡單的圓形由別人加了幾筆變成了一朵耀目的太陽花。 大家亦可以自由發揮，不受拘束地為其他人的圓形添加色彩、花紋和圖案。轉眼間，那個圖形可能已變得不一樣，也沒有人介懷別人為您的圓形裝飾，大家開懷地、放心地彼此合作享受一心一意繪畫之餘，也好像認識大家多一點，互相欣賞共同的創作，十二張湊合一起後，造成一張色彩繽紛的畫作，過了一個愉快和充實的下午。有朋友說，畫中亦隱藏了一些公仔，就像我們一樣，有時隱藏在人群中，不要忽視自己的存在，自己的能力、使命和才華。 活動籌辦人也跟大家說，支持大家一起走這段路，很是感動。最後這十二張紙再一次分開了，我們每位帶一張回家，重温開心而富有意義的時光。

什麼是窺視？多年前，社會曾經探討辦公室裝上隱藏式閉路電視，引起公眾的談論。現代社會文明的轉化，人肉窺視，並不罕見，工作的一舉一動都可以給人雞蛋裏挑骨頭，而收發的電郵亦被窺視，感覺有如年少時給爸爸媽媽監視一樣。公眾wifi ，又是否存在這個私隱問題。大家的包容性似乎開放了不少，使用app亦被收集了很多資料，只不過坦誠地告訴同事CCTV的位置，app收集的內容，人會感到尊重多一點，也會多加留意，就正如收發電郵的處理一樣，每個人在社會和工作有不同角色，都希望得到一份尊重和信任。 十分感恩地看到現代舞台全新的面貎，學習這個全新台階上每一步都要形形翼翼地小心而行。也欣賞別人高深莫測的計劃。台上演員一唱一和，十分精彩，期待下一場好戲。

One of the best things to do when spending ME time is to get engaged with people around the world with interesting conversations.  Dating and living with someone can be very romantic, and living by yourself can equally be romantic. I feel lucky when I could just lie on a sun bed, welcoming the heat touching my body and seeing the clouds drifting in the sky.  When I watched an inspiring movie, or read a good book, I felt “wow”, how people could be that creative or talented to do so. A book called Grit tells me that talents may not be as important as passion and perseverance. If you have the intention to do certain things and have serious practice, you could be an expert in that area.   The world has unlimited possibilities and adventures that I would like to create with friends and share.  I spent the weekend visiting the elderly, you could see the sparkles in their eyes and how happy they were when a stranger came to visit them. An 84-year-old man told me that h...

It’s a great joy to discuss with many others the travel topic again. We’re not trying to compete on how many places we had been, it’s more like a sharing about our travel experience and what we enjoyed the most.  Thailand seems to be a popular destination for Americans in Asia, as it’s got a lot to offer, beaches, great food, islands, and inexpensive shopping.  Some people got the luck to combine travel with their business trips, so they could save money on flights. Some live in a vast country where the West coast or Mid-West could be a lot different from where they live.  If you consider Thailand to be the place you enjoyed more at the age of 30s and Paris is the place you will like to explore more when you are older now. I disagree. I could imagine people could have different reasons to travel to certain places. I went to Canada a few times because of meeting people and music. The flight is not that pleasant unless you are on business class. Then I travelled to Japan at...
