假色

灿烂

这个秋天过去的格外迅速,天气说凉就凉,叶子说红就红然后说落就落了。红叶时一切景色都格外的鲜艳,蓝天草坪红叶,大蓝大绿大红。叶子一落,色彩也马上随之暗淡一级。不过照片总是可以后制的,真实的还原固然有它的魅力和意义,但灿烂无比到显然不真的假色也有它自己的价值,生活也是如此吧,所谓真实本来也就从来只是相对而言。上周四系里的 Public Lecture 讲 Frank Oppenheimer,说他坚信我们不应该被这个所谓真实的世界束缚住,用他的话说,”It’s NOT the real world. It’s a world we made up”。当然这样的说法肯定会引发关于到底什么才是真实这样的提问,来做讲座的那个奶奶的回答我觉得很不错,她引了另一个我忘了是谁的人说的话,说如果我认为一件事物是真实的,说明它赢得了我对它足够的尊重 (a certain measure of respect)。

红裤子 红红的裤子

不过这样用尊重来定义真实的说法也并不严谨,它假设我们都足够理智和自制并且懂得什么叫尊重。很多时候我们觉得一件事是真实的,恐怕只是因为我们太专注在这件事上,给了一个借口和后路,而选择性的忽略了其它的真实。具体示意图见上面的俩图,如果把太多专注放在招摇的红裤子上,其它的稍显暗淡的色彩大概就直接灰掉去了-_-。好吧,我承认我是想招摇一下红裤子的,居然被我成功和深刻哲理扯到一起了,哈哈哈哈。回到严肃主题,我想说的是,这红叶的来和去再配着小寒风告诉还在各种焦虑和虚度中兜圈圈的我,时光在飞逝,这个圈圈不能老是这么兜,还得尽快找个出口换个圈圈去兜,对自己的生活要有足够的尊重,才能让它鲜活起来。

Holloways – Jukebox Sunshine

I just want to have a good time, wooohooooo woooooo

Holloways – Jukebox Sunshine

Wooohoooo woooooo

They say money talks
But it never answers me, no
Here’s my calls
Never a penny spared to
Buy all my thoughts
All the reaching reasons
That I never bought
Just like the seasons
Can’t be caught

So I say

Drop the coin for a jukebox sunshine
Set the past on fire wooohooooo woooooo

We had a dream,
You woke up screaming
And you fled the scene
Yeah you were leaving for your
That’s just a dream
I guess you don’t believe in dreams not like me
And I won’t let you chase my dreams away

So I say

Drop the coin for a jukebox sunshine
Set the past on fire wooohooooo woooooo

You’ve got there’s space and time
You’ve got a call in the after laugh
Come on shake your wings like a butterfly
You’ve got the money for the parking fine
I know I don’t. Won’t you give me a loan?
Won’t you leave me alone?
Coz I just want to have a good time
Throw the past into the night
So I say to you

Wooohooo wooooo

Drop the coin for a jukebox sunshine
Set the past on fire wooohooooo woooooo

国庆耶!

Red!

眼瞅着国内国庆60周年大张旗鼓热热闹闹,我在这边就只能望洋兴叹。在照片里搜寻想找到一张红一点的来喜庆一下,翻到这张黑暗中红光闪闪的激光照,我就好比右下角那个孤零零的小方块翘首遥望远处更大一片红哪。然后突然在想,如果一个人历尽千辛万苦才出生成功,又经历无数风波险阻,在各种里外明争暗斗下顽强成长,到60岁的时候终于备受全世界瞩目,让那些服气或不服气,祝福或诅咒的旁人都得抬头望两眼,这段人生怎么也够出好几本书拍几部电影有一大群崇拜者然后各处巡回讲座了吧。

进入10月,我还真得对自己更认真严肃一点哪。同时也让国庆的喜气带来面试的大雨一个接一个的砸在我身上然后跃起变身一砣一砣的凹佛吧!
