好诗!

A Poem Published by the Washington Post
 
When we were the Sick Man of Asia, We were called The Yellow Peril.
When we are billed to be the next Superpower, we are called The Threat.
When we closed our doors, you smuggled drugs to open markets.
When we embrace Free Trade, You blame us for taking away your jobs.
When we were falling apart, You marched in your troops and wanted your fair share.
When we tried to put the broken pieces back together again, Free Tibet you screamed, It Was an Invasion!
When tried Communism, you hated us for being Communist.
When we embrace Capitalism, you hate us for being Capitalist.
When we have a billion people, you said we were destroying the planet.
When we tried limiting our numbers, you said we abused human rights.
When we were poor, you thought we were dogs.
When we loan you cash, you blame us for your national debts.
When we build our industries, you call us Polluters.
When we sell you goods, you blame us for global warming.
When we buy oil, you call it exploitation and genocide.
When you go to war for oil, you call it liberation.
When we were lost in chaos and rampage, you demanded rules of law.
When we uphold law and order against violence, you call it violating human rights.
When we were silent, you said you wanted us to have free speech.
When we are silent no more, you say we are brainwashed-xenophobics.
Why do you hate us so much, we asked.
No, you answered, we don't hate you.
We don't hate you either,
But, do you understand us?
Of course we do, you said,
We have AFP, CNN and BBC's...
What do you really want from us?
Think hard first, then answer...
Because you only get so many chances.
Enough is Enough, Enough Hypocrisy for This One World.
We want One World, One Dream, and Peace on Earth.
This Big Blue Earth is Big Enough for all of Us.

冷静不冷酷

每次跟老姐电话聊天,通常都会是她先海阔天空的跟我侃,大大小小的事情经由她的叙说之后往往是跌宕起伏极具韵味,我这个忠实的听众呢偶尔再插点小评论什么的.
快聊完的时候往往会有这样的对话:
 
姐:尽说我了,你好不好噢?
我:好.蛮好的.
姐:你别光报喜不报忧哦!
我:没有啊.就是挺好的,是真的没什么忧啊.都好.
姐:那好,你要好点哦.
我:恩,好.
...
 
呵呵.有时候想想,我这种不让人操心的家伙还真是挺乏味的.小时候在大人面前就傻傻的不怎么爱说话,也许被误会一直在思考吧,还被老爸老姐评论过"小小年纪成府还挺深啊"...哑巴吃黄连的我很是为这个当时觉得很贬的贬义词伤心了一阵子...

再长大点,就更冷静了.有什么事,往往都是自我消化先,搞定了再回头看就屁大的事都没有了...于是就又失去了重新叙说的理由.而我,又向来不是会倾诉的人,连有时候看到很好的文章很感人的电影,被我复述一遍,往往就会变得七零八落,自己都觉得听不下去了,更何况听众.
 
所以还是乖乖的做我擅长的倾听者来的惬意.在别人的故事里,看每个鲜活的个体或充实或写意或感伤的生活着,偶尔夹带着自己的影子,多好.
还好爸爸妈妈有我和姐姐,一个善于倾诉,一个善于倾听,不会太闹,也不会太静,完美的平衡.^_^
 
当然了,情绪平稳的人还是有软肋的,比如说不能冤枉我,比如说看肥皂剧的'感人'情节,比如说看到或经历到太激动的爱国场面,比如说听到唱到某些特定歌曲譬如'我的中国心'...这些时候如果不想被突如其来的眼泪吓到,最好是与我保持二十米以上的距离....
 
'单纯 不是什么态度 是一种满足
 我拥有太多值得欢呼
 也许冷静但不冷酷
 我有 我 不变的温度'
