Perjalanan yang baru. Lagi.

This post is on personal choice. Choice of lifeform.

I came across this serial drama a few months ago, called 天與地. They've got this song called 《年少無知》, which I thought had resonated well with what's going on in our minds:

作曲:黃貫中
填詞:林若寧

如果 命運能選擇 十字街口你我踏出的每步更瀟灑
如果 活著能坦白 舊日所相信價值不必接受時代的糟蹋

年少多好 頑劣多好
不甘安於封建制度裡 迷信上街真理會達到
旗幟高舉 群眾聲討
不惜犧牲一切去上訴 權貴的想法太俗套
只可惜生活是一堆挫折 只可惜生命是必須妥協

年少多好 貧困多好
一蚊積蓄足以快樂到 廉價結他抒發我暴躁
財富得到 年歲不保
捐輸不必講究有回報 人世間總會有異數
只可惜生活是一聲發洩 只可惜生命是一聲抱歉 怕追討

如果 命運能選擇 十字街口你我踏出的每步更瀟灑
如果 活著能坦白 舊日所相信價值不必接受時代的糟蹋

年少多好 朋友多好
一番爭執不會有被告 遊戲競爭不會記入腦
年歲增長 無法修補
青春的詩總會老 時間多恐怖

如果 命運能選擇 十字街口你我踏出的每步無用困惑
如果 活著能坦白 舊日所相信價值今天發現還未老
如果 命運能演習 現實中不致接納一生每步殘酷抉擇
留守 過去的想法 我會否好像這樣生於世上無目的鞭撻



Right now, we are at crossroads of our lives. 20-odd years born onto Earth but still wanna be fed. And yet we want to be fed in such a way that makes us seem independent.

We are simply spoilt for choice. Everyone wants change, but where is the courage (a nice way to put it, instead of "BALLS") to put it to action?

I am glad I got out of that place that does not suit me. I don't fit in that place anyway. It's like being in another world, and not being myself. No one (including myself) can envision me being that man behind skyscrapers.

The tutor asked me, "so you want to an academic?" I nodded. Some were astonished to hear that. “讲真的?”

It might seem hard to comprehend, but mind you there are many problems we are (and we will be) facing in our country suffering from middle-age crisis. Simply put, YES I WANT A CHANGE. And I am not content with what I am being taught back in studio, it's not the things I am looking for. I won't say 货不对办 but yeah, it takes two to tango. I should have known better earlier.

時代改變青年,青年創造時代。

众"林北"们就是未来岛国的主宰。当初众先辈的理想与价值,绝不能葬送我们手中。共勉之。
