我：阿鯨，Enjoy your stay in Hong Kong!

闖港座頭鯨流連忘返 專家料有能力自行離去 【明報專訊】懷疑在遷徙途中迷路誤闖香港水域的座頭鯨，昨日仍未離開，數度在石澳鶴嘴半島附近海域游弋現身。專家指出，座頭鯨的表現比前日更活躍，相信健康情况良好，現階段最好不要騷擾牠，而且沒有需要和必要強行

未幾………

座頭鯨疑受驚減少露出水面 懷疑迷路的座頭鯨今早再現身游弋在石澳鶴嘴半島附近海域，但露出水面的時間減少，懷疑受驚。

鯨：香港人，比條生路我行，好嗎？我要回家找媽媽啦！

我：………

是日返1300 - 2100，中間 1600 - 1700是小休。走到轉角位消防局對面，想起有一間新開的小店，外面一個牌寫著「山水豆腐花，大大碗五元」。為著自己的健康著想，便決定吃一碗健康美味低卡又便宜的小吃。

走進小店，一個老伯伯正坐著等候「慧眼識豆花」的顧客。小店裝潢簡單，手寫的Menu貼在門口左邊，原來還有買魚蛋燒買等小食；是個小型家庭式的經營。
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
我：麻煩您，要一碗豆腐花。
老伯伯：好呀，要冷的？熱的？
我：熱的吧！
老伯伯：這種天氣吃熱的比較好；到夏天時吃冷的便美味。
我：豆花是老伯自制的吧？
老伯伯：當然啦！我賣豆花時，你還未出世呢！那時還是六十年代！
我：那應該很好吃呢！
老伯伯：要（黃）糖嗎？
我：一茶匙可以啦。
老伯伯：好，現在的人都吃得少甜。
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
付完錢後，便回家品嘗。
一路上又想：老伯伯何以獨自一個守住鋪子？是孩子們怕他退了休沒有甚麼做，故決定打本給他開的舖嗎？還是年輕的時候賣豆腐花賺的錢，一點一點的儲起來，到現在終於實現了開舖的夢想？
無論是甚麼原因，想到一把年紀仍然積極充實自己的人生，都令我不其然地尊敬老伯伯，決定有空時都支持一下他和他的豆腐花。
就像是小女孩吃祖父祖母的糕點一般的窩心。

謎底：我

身處於「助人事業」，幫人當然是我們的職責。但請注意：是職責，不是任務。因為我們和所有人一樣，在生命當中都有不同的角色和任務：人妻/人夫、父母、子女、男友、女友、朋友等等。

Since這是一個職責，不是生命的全部，亦不是生命中惟一重要的事…那為甚麼要我們犧牲自己與至愛的相處時間，而處理其他人的人際關係/家庭關係/戀愛關係等等呢？

「但我放工/放假才有時間嘛…你們的辦公時間不方便我…」

但你在辦公時，我們也在辦公呀！你放工要回家食飯、享受天倫樂，我們也需要呀！如果因為我們的職責而影響了我們的人際關係/家庭關係/戀愛關係等等，那我們又該向誰求助呢？

不是不想幫，而是希望能體諒一下我們的需要和難處。

唉…

btw, 這個MSN令我的電腦很遲鈍…這也是我少update的原因。

A Happy Birthday Theme song to myself....I like it! :)

一朝驚醒已在目前　怎麼走了這麼遠
屈指一算突然發現　很多好戲已上演
離原本想的有些遠　好比揀選歌舞的路線
但拍了一齣打鬥片

由這裡　行過去
行過去　下一區
誠實地　無懼地
隨遇地　行過去
彈指間　第幾關
原來都走到這裡
別說出發以後習慣失去
鮮花開過掌心裡

把握青春最後十年
珍惜中午的光線
很多支票未曾兌現
只因長大了看穿
成名得獎一概不算
不可更改的最佳路線
何謂幸福秒秒在變

由這裡　行過去
行過去　下一區
誠實地　無懼地
隨遇地　行過去
彈指間　第幾關
原來都走到這裡
但我高興繼續漫遊於這裡
寫好這刻這一句

掌握青春經歷老死中間不免有唏噓 HEY...
今天這一階段至少不只可以談 空虛

行過去　行過去
行過去　下一區
華麗地　懷舊地
前衛地　行過去
路彎彎　步跚跚
由無知走到這裡
但我高興繼續漫遊多幾歲

由這裡　行過去
行過去　下一區
成熟地　緩慢地
回味地　行過去
彈指間　又一關
誰要劃時代創舉

只想懂得慶賀目前
不早不晚的一歲
平常心境中探取
沿路的風呂

Grandpa R.I.P on 16th Aug 2008 morning.

It's a shame that I was not beside him for his last moment.

I miss you.

從此以後，每當我……
……喝著維他朱古力奶；
……到九龍城街市的樂園食餐蛋麵；
……到衙前塱道的義香喝豆漿；
……撘11K到竹園村總站；
都會想起你的微笑。

我和你的一點一滴，都永遠在我的腦海裡。

為甚麼連應有的工作態度都沒有？為甚麼不懂得尊重和珍惜你的工作？為甚麼不珍惜被給予的機會？需知道，機會並不是唾手可得……還是你根本不希罕這個機會，只視這個為一份「好過無」的工作？！

教而不善……枉我浪費心機去教訓你。

還是我自找麻煩？！

常聽長輩慨歎：一代不如一代……現在真是心領神會。

你要食多點飯，好好在醫院休養。這樣身體才會好，精神才會好。也希望你早日認識主耶穌，這樣我們才可以在天家再會。你知道嗎？我兩個的小小心願，便是希望你可以看著我出嫁，和認識主耶穌。所以，希望你明白我的心意，不要自暴自棄。

It's been awhile since I update my blog...

Lots of things happened.....New Year trips, court case, Family matters....now it's nearly half way through 2008. 
Sometimes I would question myself and ask God at the same time: What have I been doing?  Have I done enough?  Good enough?  Where are you?  Are you here?  What are you doing?
 
For quite a lengthy period of time, I have not been able to sense the presence of God during the time of prayer, worship.....not even mentioning about in the mundane, routine, daily life.  Then I ask myself: What's wrong with me?  Why can I find you God?  Where are You? Why are You hiding from me?  Where are You?  Then I became frustrated.........Why am I not experiencing Your grace and love showering into my family like others do?  Why am I not seeing them change even I tried so hard?  Why am I feeling a slight bitterness after I heard a testimony shared by one of my sisters, whose mum's stubborn heart was once harden towards You but now has changed into a heart that  longing after You?  Why do You remain silent towards me after I've asked You so many questions??

I became frustrated to the point that I said to myself: I want to give up.  I'm angry......and I don't want to talk to You, God.   I don't even feel like praising and worshiping You, singing those songs in the assembly.......... The promises that He once made to me, the Words that He once spoken to me, the presence of God that I once experienced...they all seemed something far...some "old" memories that only allow me to reminiscence once awhile to remind me, I am a Christian. 

Just like Peter and Susan in The Chronicles of Narnia.....who were not able to see Aslan like Lucy do.  At difference points of time during their adventure, they honestly told Lucy: Why can't I see Aslan?  They envied (not in a bad way) how Lucy  is so blessed to be able to see Aslan from afar.   Even the Narnians lost hope because they were being oppressed for so long, and Aslan never appeared as they were told by their ancestors.  The existence of "Aslan" was doubted, they thought the story about Aslan was merely "story".  Then when enemies came to attack, they fought with all their might, even willing to fight til death....but there is no hope of winning.  Tired, desperate, hopelessness.....waited for so long but WHERE IS ASLAN? 

That's exactly how I felt.

In the end, through the help of brave Lucy, Aslan was found (who was waiting for the Pevensies to ask for help).  At the crucial moment, the Lion roared, enemy defeated, battle won. 

As I was watching the scene where Aslan was manifesting his great power by summoning the nature for help, I felt God was remaining to me again: I'm here, I've always been here, dear.  

"Be still, and know that I am God"

and Jesus said
"Give me your hand, and learn to let go
trust in Me, that's all you need to know"

因為facebook的關係，竟然「遇」上十多年沒有聯絡的小學同學......突然好像時光倒留到小學年代.....一群在我腦海中失落在角落的名字浮現了出來......感覺很神奇。於是立刻用MSN聯絡同學仔，很雀躍地要跟他「相認」……一下子好像要尋找曾經失落的回憶和友誼……又不停在facebook尋找其他「失散」了的小學和中學同學...好像有點瘋狂....希望我「奇怪」的舉動沒有嚇親同學仔 :P

你好，我叫馬佩雲。
歡迎與我「相認」。
小學：馬頭涌官立下午小學  88/89 1C; 89/90 2A; 90/91 3A; 91/92 4C; 92/93 5C; 93/94 6C

與我小四同班的同學仔：記得當年的聖誕聯歡會，我們都好像發了瘋一般的唱李克勤的「護花使者」嗎？當時的卡拉OK是從播放ETV的電視機播的！  :-)

Watched Evan Almighty a few weeks back...it's one of the movie that I like recently.  I had been thinking of writing a blog about this movie after watching it but forgot about it because of the busyness in moving house....but after hearing my pastor's preaching on the web today, it reminded me again about something I've learned out of the movie....

Basically it's a story about a man who had a plan of his career and while on the way of pursuing it, God appeared and gave him the project of building an Ark to "change the world".  Pastor pointed out an interesting mistake that most people make: when people pray, they do not know what they are asking for.  When Evan in the movie prayed and told God that he would like to change the world, God told him to build an ark so that he may save people from the flood....but Evan thought it is crazy and hesitated to do it.  Evan's wife Joan prayed and asked God to bring unity into the family....but when Evan needed her help and support in building the ark, she thought her husband had gone insane, and decided to leave with their 3 children. 

I too....make the same mistake...very often, without knowing. 
Like the blog that I posted previously....when we often ask God for certain thing, God won't drop them onto our laps.....instead, more than often, He wants us to gain it through a process.....and it is the process that's all matters, not the result.  Because we could be molded and changed to become more like Christ through the process and bear the fruits: Love, Patience, Gentleness, Goodness, Kindness, Faithfulness and Self-control......it is a process that God enjoy witnessing...just like when we grow a plant, seeing the seed grows day by day.

Yep....very interesting.
