英文很难
小時候把English讀成
[應給利息]的同學當成了行長﹐
[陰溝裡洗]的成了小菜販﹐
[因果聯繫]的成了哲學家﹐
[硬該歷史]的成了政治家﹐
[英國裡去]的成了海外華僑﹐
而我不小心讀成[應該累死]﹐
所以成了苦命的打工仔。

COMFORT ZONE 16 May
I was on the subway train when I passed by a certain station.
From the window opposite my seat,
I saw a man at a window in an apartment of block of flats.
The window was grilled and he had one hand on it,
Clasping.
He was leaning forward half-hesitantly while looking out.
He looked fearful while hopeful at the same time.
I felt sorry for him,
A total stranger.
There was a wave of Compassion arising in me.
He was unkempt and beared.
Early thirties maybe.
It was too far and I could not see his eyes,
But his posture was that of desperation and depression.
Maybe he is jobless.
Maybe his family left him.
Maybe he had lost his confidence in himself and society.
Maybe all this happened while he was feeling middle-age blues.
We all have our comfort zones,
Maybe he was forced to leave his comfort zone,
His former refuge of happiness,
As a victim of karmic circumstances.
Maybe he just broods around all day in despair and pessimism.
That is suffering,
Yet that might be his next best comfort zone (in a deluded sense),
Being afraid to face the world again.
Are we better off than him?
We have our comfort zones too.
Sometimes they aren’t obvious at all.
It could be a friend that you stand alone.
It can be the unchallenging job that offers no chance for personal growth you had been holding for years.
Sometimes we shouldn’t get too comfortable,
Or we end up imprisoning ourselves within self-made walls.
When the Buddha was asked what He taught,
He once answered, “I teach suffering and the end of suffering.”
That was a way of putting the Four Noble Truths.
The Buddla taught about the recognition of suffering,
Which is the only problem with our lives,
And how to end it.
There are two types of suffering.
One type is suffering that leads to more suffering and the other is that which leads to the end of it.
I hope the man will be brave.
I hope we will be brave.
Brave to step out of our own comfort zones to face the challenges and necessary hardship of life that lead to Enlightenment.
That is the only way to truly grow.
The Buddha stepped out of His ultimate comfort zone – the luxurious life of the palace to wander in search of the Truth.
He was brave,
And He succeeded.
I dedicate this article to the unknown man at the window.
And to all of us at the windows of our self-made prison cells.
Let us not get too comfortable.
Any comfort zone that is not Nirvana is not real comfort.
Let us start stepping out then.

天使之翼的傳說.
久遠之前的某一天﹐
有個美麗的天使坐在雲端上遙望大海﹐
而那天﹐
海浬的海豚王子也浮上水面仰望天空﹐
那一瞬間﹐
他們看到了彼此﹐
他們的眼神交會著﹐
然後他們彼此愛上了﹐
但一個在天﹐
一個在地﹐
他們的距離是如此的遙遠﹐
於是海豚只能用盡力氣浮上海面﹐
悲傷的望著天空﹐
天使也只能看著浮上海面的海豚﹐
黯然的流下眼淚﹐
眼淚順著雨水﹐
滴落在海豚的身上。
他們如此相愛﹐
但距離卻如此遙遠﹐
他們尋找著﹐
但在天與地之間﹐
卻找不到任何一處相連的地方。
“妳下定決心了嗎﹖”
“嗯﹐是的。” 天使點了點頭。
“好﹐那妳準備好了嗎﹖”
天使有點了點頭﹐
臉上帶著幸福而又滿足的表情。
“三﹑二﹑一﹗”
天使開始從天上向地面墜落﹐
不斷的墜落﹐
因為她捨棄了她身後的美麗翅膀與天使的永恆生命。
“為什麼要捨棄永恆的生命呢﹖” 天使的朋友問她。
“因為這樣才能跟他在一起。” 天使回答。
同一個時間﹐
海豚王子去海中長老那兒﹐
求得了一雙珊瑚翅膀。
“你要捨棄大海與你的子民嗎﹖”
他的父皇問。海豚王子沒有回答。
“這樣你將永遠無法回到大海呀﹗”
“因為她在天上﹐只有這樣才能和她在一起。”
海豚王子說。
“那你準備好了嗎﹖”
海豚王子點了點頭﹐
臉上表情有些哀傷﹐
但更多的是期待。
海中長老替他裝上了珊瑚翅膀﹐
海豚王子開始往上升。。。
往上升。。。
海豚與天使﹐
一個飛天﹐
一個墜落。
一個再不能回到大海﹐
另一個從此只能遙望著天空。
乃是天與地的距離﹐
但彼此卻更感到孤寂。
天使化為人魚﹐
從此唱著哀傷的歌曲。

RUSH 14 May.
Only Bodhisattvas and fools rush into Samsara –
The first to save the second.
Which are you?
Why did you come in?
