my dad's story

There are two stories which he told us or his friends many times. One of them i have written in Chinese in this blog. They were all happened in China at his young age. We always describe metaphorical the life like seasoning then this case must be the sour one. Every time while he told us he was waving his hands and acting himself of that time, we felt sorrow and pity. It means he is missing his mom and the time in China. I hope i could write the detail with my poor English as possible as i can.



My dad seldom talk about his father who he had passed away early when he was a kid. So when he was a teen age boy my grandma wanted him to go to the downtown of Beijing where his uncle run a small restaurant to seek help or a job. But my grandma even hadn't have the money for the cost to Beijing. His mom just give him a bag of flour in case dad could buy food instead of money. The worse was on the way he met a Japan's soldier who insisted that the flour in the bag was a poison stuff. Of course we heard a lot of what the Japan's soldier had done in China. It was a wrong time evolved the evil ambition which harmed deeply the innocent people.

Anyway dad was full of fear and panic, he grabbed a handful flour into his mouth and said: poison??? It is just a bag of flour! Then the soldier swung his hand and said: move!! Dad even imitate the tone of that soldier.

It's hard to image the second result at that time.

tree

At May of this year, my mom need a company to take one day trip of Fencihu (奮起湖) which in the Alishan National Scenic Area阿里山國家風景區. In fact i was a little disappointed the view from bus window looked on the mountain. I didn't see many large areas of the tea plantation( the view of my mom's back ) instead of Areca catechu 檳榔樹 has been grown in the most area of the mountain. There are higher economic benefits than the tea plantation but its environmental reservation is worse. It's not easy to get a balance between the wealth and moral.

Two years later my family will move out. I hope i could take the old and big tree in our yard with us. It is almost my age. We need a place to keep my dog and my favorite tree. Am i greedy?

We are the warm persons. So welcome to Kaohsiung. That will be my honor to be your guide if you need a city tour.

after forty

A drama director said he have changed a lot about facing the work depression after forty years old. He have a new vision and character to deal with the problem. I guess he may as like as my age. He didn't explain too much why the transition is forty. But at that moment I think we all have an insight about life at the age of forty. Maybe it will be a shallow review when i am fifty but in this moment i think i am really different from before. I still urge to find the answer why is forty. It came quietly and brought me so huge shock.

again

A young boy for his selfish urge to abuse a dog just for his blog's high numbers of visitors. What a immature thought! How could you let a dog smell the laughing gas so that the dog barked uncomfortably and trembled with fear. Even worse i still can hear your sound of laugh in the video. Why don't you put your stupid face of smelling the laughing gas on the blog!

generation's gap

It was rainy heavily with the thunder that was scary to me. Sometimes we will curse somebody he will be hit by the thunder if he do bad things or full of lies. But it seems my generation's old joke.
This afternoon i went to the gas station, I asked the young employee about my member card which maybe had lost here last time. After he answered me and he said the word to me "lightening" then came a thunder like a cannon. I patted my heart lightly and murmured to myself. The young man asked me whether i am afraid of the thunder. I replied him yes but i regreted the answer immediately. I didn't want him to think i try to be cute like a eighteen girl. I probably have done many evil things, i said countinuely but the situation is getting worse. There was no words but silence between us. He may think where the crazy woman comes from?

where are you?

Recently most people are talking about the China no matter is politics or business trade in Taiwan or in the other countries. It reminds me when i was twenty- four my English conversation teacher may older than me five years had told to me some words face to face in the class.

me: Are you interesting in learning Chinese?

teacher: Why?

me: They said China may will be a remarkable country in the feature. Perhaps Mandarin will be an useful language.( Forgive me my poor English i might exaggerate the news on the newspaper )

teacher: I may die already.
