還沒回來的人在焦慮
處在這裡的人同樣分不清楚是焦慮還是壓力
焦慮到整個額頭都冒出來痘痘、頸肩酸痛、偏頭痛
不知道什麼時候
我也變成了一個credit 不好的人、一點也不亮眼的人、沒有performance的人、口條不好的人
Low key 了大半輩子，這下可成真的了
這都沒什麼關係
因為在這就是大部分實際在生活的人的人生
就因為這麼苦
所以生活中一點的小溫馨或是小感動
都可以得到大滿足
就像多半的爸爸一樣
在外面當狗也沒關係
只要回家看到兒子
重點是要帶飯包回家
天啊！我怎麼會這麼老呢？難怪男生看到我都想跑！

“Do you know why they call you is camel toe?”
“Yes, I know, because… camel toes are tough. They can walk all over the desert and hot rocks. I am tough.”
“Easy doesn’t enter in the grow-up life.”
“It’s the wind; wind can blow all over the place.”
“This shit life, we must chop some things.”
“I’ll take this American accomplishment. That’s why I live. Behind fire* of 47, OK, but in front of the Sponge Bob, Hello American!”
聽Happy在說話
「如果我今天養了一隻
整天只會吃窩邊草、亂咬東西
看到主人來也不會表演搖尾巴和轉圈圈的兔崽子
我最多也只是揍他一頓而已
但如果養了一個沒他辦法的孩子
我就準備氣一輩子…」
罵小孩的行為簡直就是狗吠火車
他們從來不會因為你當下分貝提高到80、血壓上升到120、甚至是亮出離家出走這招，便會有所感悟
他們只會以離開你來懲罰你
等到你感到孤單寂寞時
他們再勉強回來同情你
打小孩的行為更是自尋死路
因為你會老我會長大
當你亮出曾經結實的肥肉以為可以飽餐一頓你的孩子
或是亮出閃亮亮的西瓜刀
只會換來日後住榮民之家的慘淡
這很現實 我知道
我從十歲起就不停地想告訴你這個事實
但我從來都說不出口
因為我想到當我五十歲時
原來我做的一切自以為有用的事
都是假的
這就變得很殘忍
養Happy不一樣
即使他不轉圈圈、發脾氣亂咬東西
頂多被我揍一頓而已
不用氣一輩子
話說回來
成就有什麼了不起
只是拿來說嘴的面子而已
我會轉圈圈也不算是一技之長吧！
只不過剛好我也是個愛面子的人而已
快樂和信仰才是最重要的
只不過金錢和權利的人是比較辛苦的
尤其是毫無成就地存在這個社會，卻妄想以暴力改變下一代的可悲者
I do not understand how terrible the place around me.
I do not know how depressive the environment I live.
I just look up at the flower blooms in font of my eyes
I just look over the tree stretch into the sky.
You can tease that I neglect each imperfect day.
You can say that I inhibit myself not to cry.
You can say that I abandon all each beautiful flight.
But the thing really is that I am tired.
Tried of any dispute over benefits on my beautiful land,
Tired of any of the greedy of these powerful men,
Tired of the complaint for all the been pained
Tired of the unfair and selfish but nothing was done for that I can.
It makes me become same
Totally plain
In the so-called wonderful land.
看來，消失是必然的了
不過也不要太難過
最多 一聲珍重再見
再見！我的naïve

不曉得Eight Easy Steps 是不是艾拉妮絲的生活準則，不過既然她已經說了practicing her ass off for years，就當作是吧！也可以當成自己的rule，rule確立施行了，就對自己交待得過去，

在煙花綻放但冰天雪地中遇到你
是一種恩情
讓人迷途知往
是一種善良
總讓灰心沮喪 遺忘
是一種對未來藍圖的渴望
不會隨便流浪
是一種力量
鼓舞人正面向上
是一個天堂
讓笑容永遠掛在臉上
