祈福

 9月的一个周六，去了观音寺。

多年前去的时候，应该是春节之后，人潮如涌，顺着人群很匆匆忙忙地，没有停留，只记得那天很冷，台阶很多。

这一日依旧很冷，佛像前的荷花还有碧绿的莲蓬。坐了很长时间的车，犹如信徒一般，很早到了寺院，原来是这样一个静谧而秀美的地方啊，我慢慢地仔细地看，双手合十，心中默念。

依旧笨拙，依旧感觉有些缺氧有些恍惚，脑中有些空白。

回来的路上，天空突然放晴，大片的乌云被驱散一空，阳光一丝丝地温暖了我。

辞旧迎新

鸡年的最后几分钟，我正忙着换被套，长对长，短对短，心不在焉地把被子塞进被套，居然弄错了，重来，再看表，已经进入了新年。 外面落了雪，铺在地上薄薄的一层。2月的风吹在脸上，冰凉凉的，天已放晴，路上行人寥寥，雪在我的脚下发出清脆的响声。我一个人走着，想着这个短暂的周末，我都做了些什么。 未来，总是像一根羽毛，撩动我的思绪和期望，我仿佛回到了初中那年，坐在教室里看着外面的杨树上嫩绿的新叶，我的心飞得很高很高....... 写给新年的自己，知足、平和、勇敢、诚实。每一步脚踏实地。每一步无愧于心。 我祈祷

Sweet dream

What a sweet dream I had last night! Sweet and delicious. I keep thinking of it, and for a moment I felt I was living it. I rarely have color dreams now. When I was young almost every night I had colorful and exciting dreams. Sometimes I revisited the same dream for a number of nights. In one dream, I could fly. I had no wings but if I ran faster, I could fly up high in the sky. In another, I was an intellectual in ancient times, bidding farewell to my family and embarking on a long journey to the capital to take the state exam. The most intriguing dream is the one about the two continents, separated only by a narrow strait. I was studying in a university in a big city on the south continent. I boarded a flight to the north, and came to the sea side where the water is cool and blue, the sand white, and the beach ragged with rocks. I can still visualize the two continents, like viewing a map. In another dream, I was swimming by the sea. The water was deep, chilly and blue. The p...

Phil's getting old

Our Beta fish Phil did eat when I fed him. In the past summers, he would wake up in the early morning when I drew open the curtains. He would swim to the surface waiting to be fed. His appetite was very good as he could eat 3 or 4 pallets. This summer, he is different. He sees the pallets, but does not bite. He simply swims away. He must be hungry because I saw him trying to take the pallets that have sunk to the bottom of the tank. Beta fish are surface eaters, not bottom ones. So this made me think that probably the pallets were no longer fresh. I bought a new bottle of Beta pallets today. When I opened the cap, I was surprised to find the pallets twice the size of the the previous brand. I dropped a few in the tank. Phil was obviously interested in the new brown food. He dashed towards one of them, opened his mouth, but the pallet was too big to fit in. At first I was not sure it was the size problem, so I fed him a few more. He seemed scared of the sight of them, and quickl...
