About Waves - an accidental EP I came up with about grief, when I was dealing with the sudden but terminal cancer and eventual death of my most beloved dog, Leif. I lost Leif to advanced lymphoma, and this is all I could do. Music, after all.
I don’t think I am able to perform these songs live. Maybe never. No one can ever tell you how long grief will last. As a matter of fact, no one should ever tell you how and when to feel. Take your time. Just remember, grief comes like waves, if you’re not standing on your feet, you might be swept away and never found again. In time, you might learn to let it become a part of you. You will learn to live again, with a whole new perspective. Or not.
I am sorry, you are all alone in feeling this, but you’re definitely not alone in this world.
Waves come and go. So does life.
Love lifts you up high, pain gives you weight to put your feet on the ground. You are only complete when you have truly experienced loss, but there’s no rush. In the meantime, may these songs give you some comfort, as they did to me.
Love,
Chet Lam
悼念的悲傷,會像潮水一樣來襲。
悼念就是愛。愛有多深,悼念就有多深。
這張有關接受死亡的專輯是一個意外。2021年6月,就在我知道只有八歲的小狗阿富患上末期淋巴癌的時候,我在音樂製作裏找到一點安慰與出口。
有多少心理準備以及理性分析,悲傷來的時候永遠會把你震撼,在受到巨大衝擊之後拾起碎片,你嘗試重新思考生命及生活。經驗不會對你有幫助,頂多只是讓你知道你自己有某些感覺神經,而每一次的體驗也是新鮮的;再多的意見和智慧都只是不設實際的雜音,世上沒有人可以告訴你怎樣感受,什麼方法才是對的,需要經歷多久… 這是一條很孤獨,而只能夠靠自己走的路。
更糟糕的是,它會用潮水的方式來襲,一下一下拍打你的心。我們不能阻止潮水的來去,唯一可以做的,就是感受,讓所有溫度濕度風雨陽光一一穿過你的身心,謙愻地活在這一刻。
給生命裏曾經失去過什麼的朋友,你並不是一個人。
一峰

【10.20集結案】
//2019 年 10 月 20 日九龍遊行案,前民陣召集人陳皓桓、民主黨前主席何俊仁、社民連前立法會議員梁國雄等 7 人,被指煽惑他人參與未經批准集結、組織未經批准集結等。7 人早前承認控罪,法官胡雅文今(1 日)在區域法院判 7 人監禁 11 至 16 個月。除了黃浩銘,其餘被告的刑期與早前 8.18、8.31、10.1 未經批准集結案刑期同期執行。//
以下是文遠的感言:
【吳文遠 - 10.20九龍遊行案件感言】
這是一宗政治案件,所以我認為這篇陳詞適合放在政治脈絡下開展。
我們生活在急劇轉變及充滿挑戰的時代。基於政府所謂「安全」的理由,記者、報館、網台主持、學者、教師、學生、藝人、歌手、工會人、社運人、民意代表以及許多市民,都一一被迫沉默,以至逐個被拘捕、檢控、囚禁。
尤有甚者,「安全」的定義還在不斷挪移及擴大。昨日出版的一篇報紙文章、一次演講、一種主張、一個標語,今天都可能被視為對「安全」的威脅。
短短數年前那些通常被判罰款或社區服務令的行動,現在會被判監禁。這裡曾經存在和而不同及真誠辯論觀點的言論空間,但現在只剩下觸目驚心的紅線。
每天都帶來法規的重新演繹,每天都突破荒謬的下限。有他們的眼中,現在甚至連兒童繪本都成為了對「安全」的威脅。
問題無可避免地浮現:究竟這些法規是要保護誰的「安全」?是公民的自由,抑或是實際上已經非常有權力的人的權力?
我們追求怎樣的秩序?這些法規的設計,是為了所有公民能夠享有法治、自由、公平競爭及繁榮的機會嗎?還是旨在引領我們進入一個政府不受挑戰及不受限制的時代?
我們發現自身正處於一個這樣的時代,人們需要作出看似簡單卻極為困難的選擇——就如哈維爾所指——我們要活在真實中,還是要服從於謊言及荒謬?
在我追求的真實生活中,我們只是像《國王的新衣》中的小孩那樣呼喊:「喂,國王根本冇著衫喎!」

【Avery Ng: On October 20 Kowloon Rally】
This is a political case, so I think it is appropriate to frame my remarks within the political context of this matter.
We live in rapidly changing and challenging times. Journalists, newspaper publishers, broadcasters, academics, teachers, students, artists, singers, trade unionists, political activists, democratically elected representatives, and many other citizens are being silenced, arrested, prosecuted and imprisoned by the Hong Kong government for supposed reasons relating to “security”.
What’s more, the definition of this “security” is constantly shifting and expanding. A newspaper article published yesterday, a speech, an opinion, a slogan--even a gesture may be treated as a threat to security today.
Actions that would have previously and sometimes rightly merited community service or fines just a few short years ago, now lead to the possibility of jail. Where once there was the space to disagree agreeably and debate ideas honestly. Now there is intolerance.
Every day brings a new re-interpretation of the rules. Every day we reach a new level of absurdity. Even children’s cartoon books have now reached the status that they are seen by some as a threat to “security”.
The inevitable question arises: Whose security is being protected--the liberty of citizens? Or are these laws in fact protecting and securing the power of the already-powerful?
What kind of order are we seeking? Are these laws designed to uphold the rule of law, ensure freedom, a level playing field, and the chance of prosperity for all citizens? Or are they meant to usher in an era in which the government can rule unchallenged and unchecked?
In the times that we find ourselves in, one needs to make a choice that is at once simple yet immensely difficult. As Vaclav Havel writes: Do we live in the truth? Or conform to lies and absurdity?
In my pursuit to live in the truth, we are merely the kid who yelled “hey, the Emperor wears no clothes.”

as a matter of fact 在 Facebook 的最佳貼文
Y’all know that feeling of nostalgia when you look back at the photos of your army days? That feeling of should have, could have, would have?
It might not feel like such a long time ago (maybe because of ABTM), but mannn, its actually been 11 years since I ORD-ed.🤣
And now looking back, if I could turn back the clock, I wish I could have done a lot of things better. I wish I was more responsible and accountable for the people under my care, and the armskote duties tasked to me. Of course I can't deny the fact that these "mistakes" I made also shaped me to be who I am today. More than anything else (I hate to admit this - MAN EGO), but I wish I knew how to manage the allowance given to me by SAF like how @joshuatwe did with his.
Call him a miser or prudent or whatever, Josh saved a good 50% of his monthly allowance which at the end of the 2 years, accumulated to a fairly decent amount. As a matter of fact, had I known the power of compound interest back then, surely I wouldn't have spent ALL of my allowance on canteen food and partying. At the end of 2 years, I had ZERO savings and shamelessly drew allowance from my parents while other boys used their army allowance during their uni days.
The message I want to put across to you guys (those who are serving or have yet to serve) is, like it or not, you have to finish your 2 years, so why not make the best out of it. Use these 2 years to think carefully about what you would like to pursue in future, and also if you haven't started saving, no better time to start than now. Take this chance to find out how you can grow your money with compound interest (be it through @singlife’s offerings or ask around your circle of friends or read up online!).
Share with me in the comments below (for those who have ORD-ed), if there is one thing you can change about your time in NS, what would it be? Hear what @joshuatwe13 and @toshrock think too on their Instagram over the next two days! #singlifexcharlie #singapore #singaporearmedforces

歡迎光臨~我是樂筆!
不知道大家對婚姻的想法是什麼?先看年齡與外貌?再來房有車?在一起互相取暖,哪天一言不合隨時可以打包走人?
愛是一種感覺,還是愛可以是一種決定?
其實婚姻是盟約,不是契約:「契約」載明雙方要履行的條件,如果不能做到,就可以終止契約;但「盟約」是份深情的承諾,不論颳風下雨、生老病死,我們永遠彼此相愛、一起共度難關。
愛是「1+1大於2」不是一定要有你,但有你的人生更好。
愛也是「0.5+0.5=1」我們學習給予、付出,甚至彼此犧牲,所以才完全。
認識Hibbii的過程很妙,在網路上。他是非常熱情主動、貼心又細膩的姐姐,謝謝他來「歡迎光臨」分享身為初戀未婚妻的真實故事!(節目播出時變成已婚人妻了)
或許現在的你不一定有經歷,但永遠要相信!你是被愛的!
祝福大家都成為「對的人」!
Welcome to Sunlight~
What do you think about marriage? Consider age and appearance first? House and cars go second? Being in a relationship when you're in need, and whenever you disagree with each other, you end it?
Is love a kind of feeling or love can be a decision?
In fact, marriage is not a contract but a covenant. Contract states and explains a formal agreement between two different people. If one doesn't perform, the other can terminate.
On the other hand, covenant is an affectionate promise. It means that no matter what happens, we love each other forever and weather the storm together.
Love is "1+1 greater than 2", meaning that I don't need to be with you, but my life will be better because of you.
Love is also "0.5+0.5=1". We learn giving and sacrificing, so that we can fulfill each other.
It's amazing to get acquainted with Hibbii online. She's extremely enthusiastic, positive, thoughtful and attentive.
So grateful she comes and shares her real story as fiancée of her first love! (She has been a wife when the program aired)
You might not know much about that, but you should believe that you're beloved all the time!
Hope you become Mr. or Miss Right!

as a matter of fact 在 Chris Lewis Youtube 的最佳解答
?? Greetings from Hanoi. Environmental protection and awareness has always been very near and dear to my heart. It's at the core of who I am. I come from a family that loves science and the environment - tree huggers, loud and proud. And my appreciation for things such as clean food, water, and air has dramatically increased since moving to Vietnam.
Don't get me wrong - I love Vietnam. I love the society, the convenience of being able to call Grab food, the motorbikes... but the fact of the matter is Vietnam is going through a developmental stage. And as such, Vietnam is fighting a battle with environmental pollution, just as every country has to do.
We will run out of oil and gas very soon - within out lifetimes. As such, we need to begin to look to the future, and find other means of renewable energy, especially for transportation. While countries like America and Japan already have the infrastructure in place, Vietnam is still quite a ways off.
I was lucky enough to have the chance to try out an electric motorbike from my buddy Kin. As such I wanted to make a video discussing Vietnam, its transportation, and the future of it. What will happen? What are the solutions? Hope you enjoy the video.
