What is Love




This song is from the film called A Walk to Remember,
Nicholas Sparks' novel in 1999.
It's a romantic story but ended in a realistic way, so I will tell you it's not just a love story but also teach young man to cherish their life and attitude toward people they love.


Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy.
Love is never boastful, nor conceited, nor rude;
It is not self-seeking, nor easily angered.
It keeps no record of wrongdoing.
It does not delight in evil,
But rejoices in the truth.
It always protects, trusts, hopes, and preserves.
There is nothing love cannot face;
There is no limit to its faith, hope, and endurance.
In a word, there are three things that last forever:
Faith, hope, and love;
But the greatest of them all is love.

-- 1 Corinthians 13:4-7


I love the way that Landon saw Jamie.

it MAY rain



















台北城的人們在高溫之下,露出死魚的表情。
他們不斷讓肚白浮出滾燙的室內溫水,期盼體內的火焰能隨著接觸空氣而降溫。
可惜,這幾天,連空氣都是燙的。

熱昏頭的悶熱黏膩感,讓台北城還不到七月就先跳入空調機的懷抱。
而石門水庫與限水區的人們不斷問著:「大雨什麼時候來?」

氣象局播報員看著衛星雲圖與分析結果,
推推眼鏡對著鏡頭說:「明天午后即將有短暫陣雨,請大家攜帶雨具出門。」
然後新聞進入廣告。



「我騎著車進入隧道,出來後發現好像世界末日真的來了。」
男子一身狼狽的跟著正在拿毛巾的女子說著。



午后
就在我人位於新聞館的咖啡時光,
城上方的雨師正在展演他的夏日即興曲,
滂沱大雨如把大海翻過來般的直撲地面。



我想

這座城裡的人應該是嚇到了。



被那有點小聲的春雷,
或是大的誇張小雨滴,總之,還以為是世界末日。
雨師大概會氣死吧,這可是全台期待已久的天降甘霖。


山凹中的政治大學是全城出了名會下雨的地方,大雨降下後的五秒,
全校師生每個人俐落的摸出一把大傘,或是迅速的將頭竄入其他人的傘圈下。
機車騎士臨危不亂的跳下車套上雨衣,但是那些正在隧道的人可能會慢半拍。
或是不怕雨的勇士們就這樣昂首闊步,而又過了五秒之後馬上就躲到騎樓下。


全城的死魚們翻轉回肚白,讓每片魚鱗都再次浸滿水分。
換句話說,
乾的衣服馬上就變成又溼又皺,皮鞋平底鞋高跟鞋全部遭殃只剩下夾腳拖鞋還活著。


可是,
如果這樣能解除限水,
少開一點空調,
喚回一些活力,
被雨水打到眼睛還因此滑倒的痛又算什麼呢?





















只是,暴漲的景美溪真的很恐怖。

Day Like This

It was a drizzling day like this.
You were on your bike,
we're almost strangers,
and I was in an unpleasant smell after BBQ night.

it happened in May, a night had little rain.
You wore a black T-shirt with a panama hat,
playing your iPod games,
and I was in a green one-piece
with flat shoes you don't like at all.

we're almost strangers,
in the day like this.
