Melody of you
"Melody Of You"
you're a painting with symbols deep, symphony
soft as it shifts from dark beneath
a poem that flows, caressing my skin
in all of these things you reside and I
want you flow from the pen, bow and brush
with paper and string, and canvas tight
with ink in the air, to dust your light?
from morning to the black of night
[Chorus]
this is my call I belong to You
this is my call to sing the melodies of You
this is my call I can do nothing else
I can do nothing else
you're the scent of an unfound bloom
a simple tune
I only write variations to sooth the mood
a drink that will knock me down to the floor
a key that will unlock the door
where I hear a voice sing familiar themes
then beckons me weave notes in between
a tap and a string, a bow and a glass
you pour me till the day has passed....
[Chorus]

櫻桃泡泡：暗黑日記
睽違三年，重新踏入櫻桃泡泡我與室友有個約會
從大一入學至今過了三年大娘、二娘、三娘、四娘、五娘然後 5/29 是阿如生日5/31是我生日於是大家相約去吃櫻桃泡泡
很久沒吃下午茶也很久沒放鬆過的感覺越忙其實是越閒的很開心
也很茫然
從大一入學至今過了三年大娘、二娘、三娘、四娘、五娘然後 5/29 是阿如生日5/31是我生日於是大家相約去吃櫻桃泡泡
很久沒吃下午茶也很久沒放鬆過的感覺越忙其實是越閒的很開心
也很茫然
千要去印度交換
如要準備英文考試 要去英國讀研究所
老吳 不知道 準備嫁人吧
叡勤勤 也會考研究所吧
魚沛 公職去了
我...瞎忙中
想要學很多東西 做很多研究
我好想好想一直唸書 一直做研究
舅媽說我是兩者皆宜 研究學術 或者 走入職場
其實
我覺得後者不適合我 哈
道德觀念上 人際關係的處理
價值觀
是不是差異太大
這都有待考量
扯遠了
想到好多人
想到好多事
自己的價值 在哪裡
奮不顧身的想進入政壇
改變這個社會
嫌棄政府的無能
但自己卻更無能
神創造天使
能天使是打擊魔界的先鋒
也因此 他們的翅膀都被染色
純白至灰
墮天使 由潔白的翅膀直至濃烈的墨色
每個新生兒 都如一張白紙 來到這人世
環境的不同
每個人染上的色彩不一
我有時覺得
自己也被染色了
更怕
職場 現實
綰蓁經理說
那些人沒有膽量挑戰自己
所以只能得到那樣的成果
我那時笑笑的
其實我想
我就是個膽小鬼
我就是個草莓族
我努力想去做 卻不想被責備
渴望得到讚美 卻嫉妒那些人
把自己的失敗歸因於他人
把別人的成功歸因於運氣
然後
好像一個內心黑暗的人
but it's time for us to face the music
distinguish ourself from others
in such a competitive world
i want to distribute my love and energy to the indifferent society
it's my dream
and i'll accomplish it
言猶在耳
好像不定的蹺蹺板
內心的天使與惡魔在交戰
一打起壞的念頭 就會責備自己
please...
please
please
always look on the bright side of life...
hold the believe...
we can come out with flying colors
can we?
yes, we can

5/22 杜紫宸教授演講
聽了大師級人物演講其中有個故事，我聽了覺得很妙杜紫宸教授說現在哪有什麼藍海我們何必看外國翻譯的什麼藍海策略隋唐演義裡虯髯客傳早就教過藍海策略了
故事裡有李世民、李靖、虯髯客三個主角虯髯客相當佩服李靖但他聽到李靖要歸於李世民，祝他得天下相當不解
後見李世民，發現其人乃真能人之士
故事裡有李世民、李靖、虯髯客三個主角虯髯客相當佩服李靖但他聽到李靖要歸於李世民，祝他得天下相當不解
後見李世民，發現其人乃真能人之士
後來李世民確實成為天下之主、李靖封侯
虯髯客成了一個小地方的王
在這故事中，我們看到三種策略
一個是虯髯客策略，他找了一個小地方，小到別人不會來搶
自己在裡面稱王，過的開心，又不用看人臉色
他不是找到小藍海，而是小池塘
另一個是李靖策略，他跟對了人，同其榮辱
想想，當福特汽車、HONDA這些廠商獲利更大的時候
它們的供應商是否也盟其利
最後是李世民策略，或者說郭台銘策略
他善用能人智士，又有LEADERSHIP
他在一片紅海當中，把競爭對手一個一個刷掉
讓這片紅海成為藍海
所以我們何必去看什麼藍海策略
古代典籍多有這些謀略之道
但是，藍海策略尚未提到的是
藍海給大家一個希望，大家都說要找到自己的藍海
可是，真正的藍海是你要走過千山萬水，費盡千辛萬苦
翻越頂峰，重重難關才會有的虛幻飄渺的 香格里拉
藍海不是就在你身邊的
在你身邊的是早就殺成片片的紅海
唯一的方法就是
把殺成片片的紅海
再變成藍海
這就是郭台銘策略、李世民策略
所以應該有個藍海策略PART II
提醒大家，藍海是有高度進入障礙的
聽大師演講，真的有許多價值觀輕易的被扭轉了
台灣就是個充斥著只看短利的文化
例子不勝枚舉
美國之所以能強大
除了二次大戰外，還有它募集人才不遺餘力
在早期，也有這麼一個口號，來來來 來台大 去去去 去美國
美國人到世界各地，環境比他們差的地區
把那些優秀學子招募到美國讀書，付他們的生活費、學費
讓他們享受較原來國家高的生活水準
他們的博士、碩士
裡面有三分之一的人是外國人
但美國人沒有說這些人搶他們飯碗、工作
而後這些人，還沒畢業，就有很多OFFER
被招募進了大公司工作
這些人的後代，也都聰明，常常得獎
因為老爸、老媽IQ高嘛
這是DNA的問題
但美國人是不是很有遠見
讓這些有智慧、新人力留在美國貢獻
一個正向循環的局面
新加坡後來也這麼做
中國開放之後，被邊緣化最慘的不是台灣
而是新加坡，因為各大公司的總部本在新加坡
都漸漸移到上海
新加坡非常的聰明
當他們知道，免稅什麼無法挽留這些大公司之後（這是資本的問題）
他們決定用人力
確切的年代我忘了
總之新加坡原來只有兩所大學
後來增到八所
其中的學生，新加坡到比它落後的國家
或週邊較落後地區去招收
做的是跟當年美國一樣的事
讓價值鍊中有其容身之地
所以短短10年間
新加坡由35萬人成長至42萬人
其中不少移民者
從新加坡和美國，反觀台灣
我們引進外勞，大家就抱怨沒工作、ㄟ系郎...
如果把台政清交、成大...等較優秀的學校
三分之一、二分之一給外國IQ高的人讀
恐怕家長們會抓狂
也因此我們沒有所謂的正向循環
娶了越南新娘，不準她們工作，然後工作奉養她＠＠
這...台灣的整體社會價值
教育...哪裡出了錯
別只說三隻小豬的錯
教育有家庭、學校乃至社會
光媒體就給社會造成很大的影響
什麼創造你人生第一桶金阿（某商、某周）
不斷灌輸我們
好像有了第一桶金，以後就靠錢滾錢，一輩子無憂無慮？
社會給我們短視近利的概念
學校教育呢
先不說中等教育有多麼的AWFUL
大學...有15X所？
真正學到東西的...有幾個學生？
25萬學生裡（好像一屆25萬左右）
真的有學到什麼嗎＠＠
我在上證券課的時候
老師教我們什麼布朗運動、ITO'S LEMMA
他說人家劍橋大學大二開始教的東西
我們研究所才教
所以在我們大學畢業前，一定要教我們
我們差了人家多少...I DON'T KNOW
問題是
我們有學到讀書的精神嗎？
讀聖賢書所學何事？而今而後..愧對先祖＠＠
也希望自己能好好反思一下...
能成為腹有詩書氣自華的人...
共勉之

Earth Day
By Timothy Brown
Staff Writer
Washington -- Earth Day, April 22, is the annual U.S. celebration of the environment and a time for Americans to assess the work still needed to protect the natural gifts of our planet. Earth Day has no central organizing force behind it, though several nongovernmental organizations work to keep track of the thousands of local events in schools and parks that mark the day. It affirms that environmental awareness is part of the country's consciousness and that the idea of protecting the environment -- once the province of a few conservationists -- has moved from the extreme to the mainstream of American thought.
This was not always the case. In the 19th century, Americans, blessed with a vast land rich in natural resources, lived with the notion that fresh fields were always just over the horizon. When one exhausted the soil or forests or coal of a given place, it was possible to move on to another. As industry boomed in the early 20th century people accepted without question skies blackened from smokestack emissions and rivers fouled with industrial waste. As early as the mid-1930s -- and again in the 1950s -- Ohio's Cuyahoga River, running through America's industrial heartland, was set ablaze by burning chemical waste from factories built upon its banks. There was no public outcry. Few people even noticed.
During the 1960s public attitudes began to change. In 1962 a marine biologist named Rachel Carson published Silent Spring. The title referred to a future without birds and described in plain language devastating long-term effects of highly toxic pesticides and other chemical agents then commonly used in American agriculture, industry and daily life. The book was a surprise best-seller. (See "Rachel Carson: Pen Against Poison
ORIGIN OF EARTH DAY
Gaylord Nelson, a U.S. senator from Wisconsin and a longtime conservationist, was one who understood that the methods developed for use in the anti-war protest could succeed in other areas as well. "At the time," Nelson later wrote, "there was a great deal of turmoil on the college campuses over the Vietnam War. Protests, called anti-war teach-ins, were being widely held on campuses across the nation … It suddenly occurred to me, why not have a nationwide teach-in on the environment? That was the origin of Earth Day."
Nelson returned to Washington and began promoting Earth Day to state governors, mayors of big cities, editors of college newspapers and, importantly, to Scholastic Magazine, which is circulated in U.S. elementary and secondary schools. In September 1969, Nelson formally announced that there would be a "national environmental teach-in" sometime in spring 1970. "The wire services carried the story nationwide," recalled Nelson. "The response was dramatic .... Telegrams, letters, and telephone inquiries poured in from all over the nation. Using my Senate staff, I ran Earth Day activities out of my office. By December, the movement had expanded so rapidly that it became necessary to open an office in Washington to serve as a national clearinghouse for Earth Day inquiries and activities ....
"Earth Day achieved what I had hoped for. The objective was to get a nationwide demonstration of concern for the environment so large that it would shake the political arena. It was a gamble, but it worked. An estimated 20 million people participated in peaceful demonstrations all across the country. Ten thousand grade schools and high schools, two thousand colleges, and one thousand communities were involved .... That was the remarkable thing that became Earth Day."
Groundbreaking federal legislation followed the success of the first Earth Day. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency was established in 1970, followed by the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act of 1972, and the Endangered Species Act of 1973. Among the many far-reaching provisions of these bills was the requirement that automobiles use unleaded gasoline, achieve a minimum number of miles-per-gallon of gasoline and be equipped with catalytic converters to reduce the amount of toxic fumes released by automobile exhaust.
Then, in the wake of this legislative success, Earth Day seemed to disappear. Though annual celebrations continued, they failed to match the size and enthusiasm of the first year. Earth Day seemed to have become a relic of the protest days of the early 1970s. Yet the spirit of Earth Day continued. Environmental organizations grew in size and power. Groups such as Greenpeace, formed in Canada in 1971, adopted principles of nonviolent civil disobedience to raise public consciousness about dwindling whale populations and the risks of nuclear power. The Nature Conservancy, formed in 1951, rededicated itself in the early 1970s to the "preservation of natural diversity" and began to buy undeveloped land for use as nature preserves. Venerable institutions such as the Sierra Club and the National Audubon Society vigorously brought suits against logging companies to slow the destruction of old-growth forests. Funded by public contributions and staffed with lawyers and educators as well as scientists and naturalists, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) became aggressive watchdogs for the environment.
At home, Americans, often prompted by their children, began to separate their household trash for recycling. By the late 1980s recycling programs were established in many communities. By the mid-1990s these municipal recycling programs were paying for themselves, the amount of trash dumped into landfills was in noticeable decline, and more than 20 percent of America's municipal trash was being converted into useful products. Corporations, ever conscious of the desires of the consumer -- and the bottom line of profits -- began to promote themselves as being environmentally friendly. Many firms adopted sensible business practices that increased efficiency and reduced the amounts of industrial waste.
RESURGENCE IN 1990S
Earth Day came back in a big way in 1990. Led by Dennis Hayes, a primary organizer of the first Earth Day, Earth Day 1990 was international in scope. More than 200 million people around the world -- 10 times the number in 1970 -- participated in events that recognized that the environment had finally become a universal public concern. The global momentum continued in 1992 at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED), held in Rio de Janiero, Brazil, where an unprecedented number of governments and NGOs agreed on a far-ranging program to promote sustainable development.
The 25th anniversary of the first Earth Day in 1995 was a time to assess environmental progress. In Western countries the news seemed good -- air and water were cleaner, forests were expanding and many other environmental indicators were up as well. The sometimes volatile combination of legislation, lawsuits brought by NGOs, public education and more efficient business practices had made a noticeable and positive effect on the condition of the environment.
But there were conflicting views on just how good this news was. Environmental reporter Gregg Easterbrook wrote in The New Yorker magazine that environmental laws "along with a vast array of private efforts spurred by environmental consciousness ... have been a stunning success .... Environmental regulations, far from being burdensome and expensive, have proved to be strikingly effective, have cost less than anticipated, and have made the economies of the countries that have put them into effect stronger, not weaker."
Environment magazine, a leading NGO journal, offered a gloomier assessment: "Earth Day ... has neither spawned a permanently active citizenry nor transformed the general malaise that undermines faith in democratic accountability. Although environmentalism has made great strides since 1970, institutionally as well as in public consciousness, environmental security... today remains even more elusive than 25 years ago."
Earth Day celebrates its 37th anniversary in 2007. What began in 1970 as a protest movement has evolved into a global celebration of the environment and commitment to its protection. The history of Earth Day mirrors the growth of environmental awareness over the last three decades, and the legacy of Earth Day is the certain knowledge that the environment is a universal concern.
