在香港這大城市裡生活,好容易有呢個錯覺:錢 ,真係萬能嫁!

當你趕時間,又或者想舒服D,俾多少少錢坐的士,既舒適又節省不少時間,爽!

當你揹個名牌手袋,登時自信心返哂嚟,勁!

當你周不時換最新手提電話,個D羨慕嘅眼光,嘩!

如果你有部跑車,仲更加不得了。朋友呀,朋友個朋友呀,女呀,排住隊同你friend!

但係,有冇嘢錢買唔到嫁?有,最老土個樣…

健康!唔洗多講。有好多錢,但成日瞓响張床望住個天花板,要錢嚟做乜?

你跟住可能會話,仲有親情都係。真係?你肯定?但我開始懷疑,錢係可以買到親情嫁。你有冇見過D人豐衣足食但會為錢嘈交?係嫌D後生俾D心意唔夠多。跟住就玩黑面,玩針對,都幾死火。有錢就笑番,friend番哂,唉!

仲有,當你富貴時,親戚D面口好D嫁 。但當你閉翳時,佢地個樣仲閉翳過你,慌死會問佢借咁。

因此,我相信,唔係,係堅信,一句响電影聽到的金句,好啱聽:有錢唔係萬能,但冇錢,就真係萬萬不能!

Many friends have complaint to me that they were losing memories after giving birth. I can tell you that this is not true.

I actually kept a very close eyes on myself on this claim as soon as I gave birth to my first boy. I didn’t feel that my memory was deteriorating. So, why did my friends feel that way?

It is simple – we now have to remember things for another person. With two boys, I have to remember things for three persons. So, I keep telling my friends that we are not getting forgetful. As a result, they should not be too worried about this. What I do is I keep a simple calendar and write all appointments down. And I am in good shape (why I am not using digital devices is another story, I will save it for later).

Back to us losing memory. My theory has real support. I was reading the newspaper this mornning on this topic. A study done by the Australian National University shows that we, mothers, do not suffer from memory losses after giving birth. The study confirms my theory that we are simply too occupied with the baby thing and lose track of things here and there.

So, mommies, don’t be silly. We are not getting older and more forgetful just because we are mothers now. Take some rest, and you will be reset tomorrow morning.

你而家合上眼,數二十下。

BOOM!

呢二十下,仲耐過土瓜灣馬頭圍道冧樓嘅十數秒。就只係十幾秒,可以失去至親,失去家園。看著新聞報導,心裡有說不出的痛。

冧樓後嘅一星期,高錕教授訪港。看著新聞報導,心裡也有說不出的痛。

一個人,可以突然間灰飛煙滅,也可以在你眼前慢慢消失。點樣消失,冇得揀;幾時消失,冇得揀。都幾灰…

再灰,生活都要過。可以過得冇咁灰嗎?應該得,事在人為。唔好俾自己嘅生命白過。

仲有,要緊記:珍惜眼前人,千萬唔好俾自己後悔。

又名「冧樓」。 最近應該冇香港人唔識嘅中文字。就是係唔識中文字,只得四歲的仔仔,見到報紙、雜誌上的相片,都會大叫,「媽媽、冧樓呀!」

再見到母校嘅「鬼樹」攪完一大輪以後,又話要斬,仲要係即刻個隻。

兩者共通點都係死得不明不白。

哈!原來生命真係好脆弱,估唔到,更加掌握唔到。連一棵樹也我地都幫唔到,我地仲點幫自己呀?

從幾時開始,我地嘅生命變得咁灰嫁?

When you get into fights or arguments, do you always feel that you are the one who is right and everyone else is wrong? Why is that you are the only one who has made all the sacrifices and everyone else is just a stupid idiot?

I just want to tell my friends here that, when you get into fights or arguments, take a deep breath, take a step back, and take a look at the whole situation again – why did things end up this way? Is there a better alternative to the current mess? Try to put yourself in the other person’s shoes and look at the whole thing again. You may be able to see something different.

Things don’t have to go ugly when we fight. Try to be civilized and find ways out to settle things in peace. Afterall, it is not worth it to be mad at anyone or anything.
