假面的告白

路蜒蜒，红尘独步。
停停走走，回不去。到不了。
人群中，我是孤岛。
里里外外，没有你，也有你。

My path is long and weary,
and my stride lonesome and heavy.
I am but an island; alone, isolated, silent.

还是中文美丽。。。

Me, myself, & I

There are moments when I question my existence. As if I don't feel that I'm quite real. But fact is, I am. And I've been around for a while now. I can't imagine the resources I must have consumed to get from infant to adulthood. Okay, that's another discussion for another day. Found some old photos and thought I'll put them up for laughs.

Afterthoughts on "Old & New Masters from Antwerp" at the National Museum

Although I strove hard to see a coherent theme or structure for the various 'rooms', it was hard to understand the curator's motivations and objectives. I do not claim to be knowledgeable in modern art, but the least I can do is to have a general feel and appreciation of certain types of installation and sculpture. There is one piece of work which provoked an unexpected reaction on my part. It was the installation piece "Flanders Field" by Berlinde de Bruyckere. The anti-war them...

Self-Centred

Always suspected myself to be a self-centred individual. Never quite gotten round to getting it proven. I profess to be a good and loyal friend to most people, and I mean to be one who gives help whenever help is needed of me. But still, I can't help but wonder ... I have a family who says they love me unreservedly. But are they really what they seem? Sometimes I feel that their love is never really unconditional. There will always be a tug-of-war of sorts to trade their love for my attention. And sometimes, i feel like my mother wants to own me downright. Why can life be simpler? With less strings attached? Lately, my friends have been complaining about me. That I've been neglecting them. That I'm too preoccuppied by other friends. There is a certain truth in it, though. The reason is more likely because I've began to feel a sense of release and freedom, when I am not tied to any camp of people. Friends are precious and few. And it's never easy to tell them that, ...
