Miramar Entertainment Park

Honestly, Taipei is one of really colorful and entertainment cities in the world. I can go for shopping in many fancy department stores. Newly, there is a department store with a big skyscaper wheel, its named Miramar (美麗華), in Taipei. I went there for killing time when I am enjoying my vacation in Taipei. I found an Astro Boy at the basement which is in front of an food shop. Of coures that I have to take a picture with this cartoon character which is one of my favorite animated comics. -no.827- about Astro Boy... (原子小金剛) Astroboy was called Tetsuwan Atom in Japan. The black and white series was created, animated and produced by Osamu Tezuka (1928-1989) through his own company named Mushi Productions. Tezuka, like his father, was a qualified doctor of medicine but was more interested in drawing. Astroboy was a successful comic strip in Japan in the 1950's. It was released in Japan between 1963 and 1966 and was shown on Melbourne TV in April 1966 at 5:30pm Sunday's on channel 0. The tv week described it as "Cartoon adventure series about a youngster in the 21st century." It was the first animated TV series to be produced in Japan, and after becoming a worldwide hit, Japanese cartoons began to flood the market with the release of other successful series' such as Gigantor, 8th man and Prince Planet. The large oval eyes became the standard for most other Japanese cartoons. A total of 193 episodes were produced, but only 104 of them were redubbed and shown on TV outside Japan.

Vacation in Taipei

It is always so great sharing easy time with a couple of friends, especially in Taiwan!!

Afterward, we went to the "Taipei 101" building, which is the highest building in southeast Asia, for looking around the shops. Meanwhile, I was surveying the information about the laptops.

Magic of Love

問世間, 情是何物, Where's love on this secular world? 直教生死相許? Lasting live or dead. 天南地北雙飛客, Wherever going, always together Like the migrating birds. 老翅幾回寒暑! Ignoring times Ignoring age. 歡樂趣, 離別苦, Be happy together Be wail upon separate 就中更有癡兒女. Not obsession, but promise 君應有物: Be kindred spirits 渺萬里層雲, Even miles apart 千山暮雪, By mountains, or snow. But 隻影向誰去! Now, just a lone wolf Whom can I speak to? -no.827- 醉過才知酒濃, 愛過方知情重。 圖片說明: 因為學校有個會議, 得回荷蘭了!... 轉機孟菲市, 候機時的牽掛與想念...

Partner

Partner 看了電影Mr. & Mrs. Smith, 這是描述一對夫妻在一起生活了幾年, 彼此卻不知道對方都是身懷絕技的冷面殺手, 雖然彼此因為愛意結合, 但是卻因為仍有某種未知層面的隔閡存在, 所以兩個人的情感因此觸礁陷入僵局, 然而, 就在某次執行任務失敗後, 發現彼此的真正身分, 而電影在這個片刻進入最耐人尋味的階段, 雙方的諜對諜, 與棋逢敵手的箇中滋味, 愛與不愛的情感交錯, 最後竟然發現, 兩個人之間的真情相對與早已培養出了合作無間的默契. 兩個人一個眼神, 一個暗語, 就能衝破重重的難關, 雖然到最後的槍戰畫面有點過於超現實, 可以發現那是因為滿足電影劇情效果與戲劇張力的誇飾法, 但是這卻給了我一些感想, 體會到, 也深深的認同夫妻之間的關係, 應該像是兩個合作無間的夥伴關係. 夫妻的關係裡, 沒有誰快誰慢, 誰對誰錯, 誰強誰弱, 也沒有誰主動誰被動的問題, 兩個人會自然的找到一個平衡點, 雙方都盡其在我的做自己, 然而卻又能與對方搭配互動得很完美. 兩個人的相處, 真的是一門藝術呢!! 有人說, 就像是跳一支雙人舞曲, 跳舞的很多片刻, 沒有實際上的言語, 但也許用一些眼神與肢體語言的交流, 卻能有默契的可以隨著旋律翩翩悠然起舞, 他暗示性的牽起她的右手, 而她也會意的隨著旋轉; 她前進, 他後退;... 有時候不小心踩到了對方的腳尖, 也許痛, 但是卻能適時的再度調整雙方的腳步, 繼續欣然滑著步, 然後歡喜的享受在不間斷的美妙旋律裏... 人生是延續不斷的, 就像是舞者隨著起舞的音符, 如果期望跳著步伐的美妙, 也需要音符的伴隨演奏; 我們都需要練習與學習才能將舞步與優美的旋律相隨… 以前有句廣告詞說: “我是當了爸爸之後, 才開始學習如何做爸爸的...” 人生有很多需要扮演的角色, 我相信, 有一天, 我也要真正的當了媽媽之後, 才知道開始學習如何做媽媽的... 我知道, 我也還在不斷的學習, 學著溝通的語言, 學著諒解, 學著飛越人生的考驗… 那是多麼的難得, 能夠遇到一個特別的Partner, 願意陪伴著一同感受一切人生的美好與酸苦, 我突然領悟, 當懂得如何欣賞與珍惜對方的時候, 兩個人的世界是多麼的美麗. 就理性的來說, 兩個人的相處, open and honest communication很重要, 也因為這樣, 如果同時更能夠擁有positive thought and open mind來思考並且寬容接受兩個人的相異點, 兩個人的世界又變得更加的寬廣了. 其實, 生活是平凡的, 但是奇妙的人生卻可以在平凡中過著充實又幸福的生活, 就完全看自己想怎麼過這一場不能回頭的人生. 我希望, 我們都能以尊重, 溝通, 還有考慮對方立場的感同身受態度來呵護心愛的人, 我相信那將不會有fight, 而是一種nonstop understanding reciprocation... -no.827- 推薦閱讀: Meeting Your Match <book in Amazon> Finding true love is not a matter of trial and error. It is the result of being true to oneself. Recently, I am reading this book. Summarized what is PERFECT PARTNERS in following... 1. Both partners know they belong together. 2. The relationship is synergistic. 3. Both partners think the other is the greatest person they could have ever chosen, just the way he or she is. 4. Their relationship is delightful to both parties and gets better with time and experience. 5. Both feel very safe, nourished, at-home, and natural. 6. They can be themselves; no pretense is necessary. 7. Each is respectful of the other. 8. The relationship is OK all the time, even in disagreements. 9. Each individual is totally satisfied with the other; there is no desire to look around anymore. 10. No compromises are required. 11. No "working on the relationship" is required. 12. They treat each other like sweethearts. 13. When they are in each other's arms, it is like no other relationship has ever been. 14. They really look forward to being with one another. 15. Both desire open and honest communication.

The Way I See It

The Way I See It # 30 The secret of attraction is to love yourself. Attractive people judge neither themselves nor others. They are open to gestures of love. They think about love, and express their love in every action. They know that love is not a mere sentiment, but the ultimate truth at the heart of the universe. -- Deepak Chopra Author/ philosopher www.starbucks.com/wayiseeit 習慣每天都要來一杯咖啡, 這樣已經有好幾年了... 到了美洲大陸一定也要來杯Starbucks的焦糖瑪奇朵囉!!~ 那甜甜的滋味, 就像是幸福融化在嘴裡的感覺, 恰如其分的咖啡香氣, 可以沉浸自己的靈魂自由地在天堂飛翔... ㄚ娜答幫我點了一杯大杯的焦糖瑪奇朵, 我享受著這樣簡單的幸福, 讓那甜蜜蜜的滋味停留在口中的感覺, 可以再久一點...再多一點... 手中握著溫熱的咖啡, 我突然發現這杯子上有著動人的哲學詩句, --- The Way I See It --- 喝完了咖啡, 竟讓我捨不得丟掉這杯子, 所以我記下了這杯子上的句子, 也同時記下這大杯焦糖瑪奇朵與ㄚ娜答之間的奇妙幸福滋味... -no.827-
