台灣剪紙藝術家楊士毅在他的自傳剖白了他如何從一直沉浸在過去的苦難來創作，到現在只創作令人幸福的作品。

讀了，感同身受。

以前，總以為自己吃苦的經歷，可以作為藝術創作的薪火。

掏心掏肺地把自己所思所想毫無保留地拿出來。殊不知，這把火連自己也燒燼了。

後來，醒來了。明白這種火不長久，也傷身。

以前，我會覺得欣賞有深度的電影和音樂才算是享受。而這些享受通常很燒腦、很苦澀。

後來，大病一場。明白人生已經夠苦，不用再向外望了。

一剎那的交集，我們就以為這就是全世界。

後來，我們長大了，才知道世界很大，我們能感知到的，很小。

Friends are precious, yet they come and go in stages. When we are in the same life stage, we share values, problems, and pursuits. We think we are so close to each other, not knowing that the intersection only covers a very small potion of what our lives embody.

When one moves ahead either by resolving their current problem, or has a change of circumstances, suddenly the intersection is drastically shrinked. It becomes hard to feel the same connection as before as now the differences far outnumber what we share. We are confronted with the stark reality that human experiences can manifest in endless possibilities.

It’s more prominent as one ages. What once connected us tether no more, just like passengers don’t stay in the same train forever.

Podium is built up by the accumulation of everyday hard work. Build your own podium and beat your own PB (personal best)

thoughts from reading 「我還在跑，沒時間變老」

除咗 40x「好靚呀」、「好想睇」，自問都已經做了20年觀眾，好應該寫多幾個字….

何時開始、為何會欣賞這門藝術？

為什麼會喜歡坂東玉三郎？

他對人生的追求，有影響過我嗎？

Food for thoughts….

張艾嘉在她的的新書「女兒」中，講述她對電影、日常生活的觀察。

書的開頭那個給「孝賢」的dedication 和前言令我遺憾不已。

回憶起自己因為過度工作，錯過了第一次在影院欣賞侯導新作的可能。

當時以為一定會有下一次，但是侯導之後因病退休，就沒有然後了….
