Google Taiwan 的搜索頁面把部落格叫做“網誌”。有意思。

Live the life, for the fun of it.

For the same vodka and whiskey, sometimes the former tastes better than the latter, other times vice versa.

Slow websites repulse people.

斷斷續續地試聽過一些近幾年紅起來的華語歌手。比較無愛的說。

I was brought up in the then nearly monolithically atheist China and still remains to be nonreligious. But now I guess that in any given country, joy and peace appear more often and abide longer in an average religious person than in an average atheist.

I suspect that even if I lived my life before the internet age, I would still be wrung by information overload. :-)

大商人的行藏、發心實在是奧妙無比。

於思於隨

“行成於思,毀於隨。” 
《唐˙韓愈˙進學解》

釋義:行事順利有成是由於深思熟慮的緣故。

我個人給花費時間學習英文的同學們的一些建議

不管你每個星期花費在英文上的時間是多少,一定要注意有一個系統性的模樣,即:你每個星期在聽、說、讀、寫、vocabulary 等五個方面都得花時間,各方面的比例會因個人的實際情況不同而有不同百分比的分配,8% 等等。原因是那五個方面相輔相成、互相養育。則你的學力、能力的養成,可以邁上踏實前進之一途。

類似於一個少年人的飲食,在蔬菜、米麵、(肉蛋奶)、富含水分的飲品(如湯、水)方面都得有攝入量。

Enjoy.

其實,日行一善是不夠的。

Unknown shore

He was cast by sea waves on an unknown shore
Birds swarmed and swooned in cacophony
As if fain expostulating with each other

He walked and saw and thought
This would be a known shore in years

A company's employees must abide by the decisions of the company.

Digital assets are consequential.

“黑夜給了我黑色的眼睛,我卻用它尋找光明。” - 顧城詩作《一代人》

兩個名詞“運作”和“運營”在 Google Translate 上的英文翻譯都是 "operations"。

它們的動詞的英文翻譯呢?沒查過。我個人比較喜歡 "run" 的說。

“三十以後才明白”

很多人講究食物營養的滋養、運動的滋養。

但是,也許對心靈的滋養更加的重要。
