【你是在隨緣,還是在隨便?】
每一季處理完所有報名者的電郵後,讀完他們的人生遭遇,總有些感概。
多年前,我拍影片的方式就是看到觀眾的留言,自己有些想法,就直接開直播。這一支影片是2017年在台灣桃園國際機場,要飛回新加坡時,在候機室開的直播。事因前一天晚上,有觀眾提倡看命理清未來的方向,另一邊有觀眾留言,認為對待自己孩子的命運應該隨緣。
我說:這裡隨順命運的人如過江之鯽,但成功又開心的人有多少?想成功,雖然不一定要看命,但無論是自己的命運,或孩子的命運,隨緣與隨便,一線之差而已。
「隨緣」二字聽起來很灑脫,事實上,不一定是你悟性高,看透十二因緣,而是你不能面對命運的真實相,也自認沒辦法改變,沒打這場戰之前便已認輸。
所以,你只好選擇随便了。

After I am done handling the emails from every season of bookings, I tend to feel regretful for my clients upon reading their life encounters.
Many years, my videos were all Facebook Lives, which were done after reading comments from the audience, and me wanting to add my two cents' worth.
This video was a FB Live done in 2017 at the boarding gate of Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport, while I was waiting for my flight back to Singapore. The night before, one viewer commented that he advocated knowing his children's destiny to gain clarity on their life directions. Another viewer felt that we should just leave it to fate.
My take: we aren't lacking people who follow what their destiny dicate, but how many successful and happy ones do we see? Yes, to get your destiny read isn't a prerequisite for success. But it is a fine line between leaving you life to fate and just being careless about it.
The Chinese term 隨緣 is often used freely when we think we should let nature takes it own course. Fact is, you may not be saying this because of your higher perception of the Twelve Links of Dependant Origination, but because you do not know how to face up to the reality of Destiny, and think nothing can be changed. Before the war is even fought, you have admitted defeat.
So the only thing you could do now is to let life happen to you, instead of you making life happen for you.

it is regretful that 在 Yu Hsiao Triathlete Facebook 的最佳貼文
I would like to thank all my English speaking friends and supporters in the US and world abroad for all the support of the past 6-7 years. It’s been a tough journey and I appreciate everyone who messaged me words of encouragement and congratulations.
As most of my audience are Chinese speaking, I apologize for not always posting in English. I’ll try to be better about that in the future. Below is a my short race recap of my 3:58:54 record breaking performance that went down back in Taiwan.
Nervous international fights, dismantled and reassembled my bike 3 times, 14 days of quarantine in un air conditioned heat chamber LOL (Taiwan is kind of hot), and my best 70.3 half Ironman race ever, here we are! Enjoy.. thanks again
Last year at Elsinore 70.3 in Denmark I underestimated the race courses’s difficulty, thinking for such a flat course I can easily break 4 hours. The bike leg didn’t go well, but running off the bike, I did some quick math and thought a 1:15 half marathon will be enough. During that time I still wasn’t very confident of my own endurance and was petrified of bonking halfway through the run. Nervous to push during the run, I held back until the last 5k. When I entered the finishing chute I saw the clock and it started with 4....I knew I had failed.
I was very regretful of my mentality and attitude for that race. Ever since then every single training run I do where I start to feel my legs go weak and felt the same fear at Elsinore 70.3, I would stay calm, endure the pain, and keep moving forward at the limit.
After more than a year, I took the risky flight from pandemic hard hit California to my home country Taiwan and then quarantined for 14 days. Thankfully I made it to start line for Ironman Taiwan 70.3 safe and healthy. I told myself at that moment, do not waste this opportunity.
I knew I couldn’t keep up with Sam during the swim, but I was quietly confident in my form, after a whole year of band work and technique help from my wife, I didn’t get any jello arms through the swim and was able to push full gas.
After I got to the shore, I got on my trusty Giant trinity (the dragon that changes color) and started my most confident sport of cycling, chasing after Sam. The first lap my old injury in my left hip came back to haunt me so I stayed conservative, though still able to average 42 kph. Second lap my left hip warmed up and the pain went away so I went full gas, enjoying the nice rolling course averaging 45-50kph on the 11 highway along the coast. I passed by many other competitors who cheered me on giving me a lot of energy.
Getting off the bike, I felt really good and started off averaging 3:30/km. I thought to myself a 1:15 half marathon is definitely doable. As I passed Sam at 4km mark my pace kept dropping and heart rate kept climbing. All of a sudden the clouds went away and the sun came out to play. I thought crap, this is bad. Every aid station I would grab two cups to drink and two cups to pour on myself, not wanting to slow down to waste anymore time. Every kilometer my pace would drop by a second and by halfway I did the math and realized breaking 4 was not going to happen. I started to feel very depressed and wanting to cry. I thought about How I spent the whole year training for this one race, left my family and my wife at home for a whole month, quarantined for 2 weeks, what the hell am I doing? I snapped out of that and slapped myself mentally and said if I’m not going to break 4 hours today I’m going to at least run until I got nothing left to give myself some closure. I wanted to finish the race not breaking four hours knowing I did my very best and didn’t have it, and not because I was scared. I had blisters underneath my thumb toe nail and it was extremely painful but I carried on. I slogged
Through the last 10km and found myself back in the finishing area. A friend yelled you still have two minutes til 4 hours! I still had hope and accelerated like crazy. I crossed the finish line and couldn’t believe my eyes... 3:58:54
This is my most satisfying race ever. I realized you really can’t let off until the finish line, because anything can happen. This race was very special since I basically time trialed alone from start to finish. To break 4 hours, the Taiwanese nations record for 70.3, and to share the race course with Sam, the pro athlete that inspired me to chase my dream , I couldn’t be more grateful.

大家好,我们要朗读故事咯!
Have you heard of 小狗请客? I think it is a really nice, meaningful short story and easy to memorise too. For those with P2 kids, this might be familiar because it is one of the 课文.
Anyway, the story behind this is a few months ago, this girl told me she had to go to school early on selected days of the week because she had storytelling practice with her Chinese teacher. She told me there were initially three of them who were chosen to represent their class but one didn't show up so two of them were tasked to tell the whole story on the actual day.
I didn't think much of it till it was over and the teacher sent me a clip of her performance. Not bad at all, Ariel! I wouldn't have been able to do that in P2 and I was proud of how confident she looked and how she calmly remembered all her lines. Thus, we decided to use the same story to do a mother-and-daughter version so we can remember it as well as share this nice story with those of you who speak Mandarin too. I think this is a pretty good way for the kids to learn the language and build up their self-esteem too, right?
P.S. Talking about Chinese, I am regretful to share that 快乐妈咪 column will be taking a break for now as the newspaper is revamping their layout and we have to wait and see what their future plans are. I don't want it to stop me from continuing to write and share my thoughts so hopefully I can write some Chinese posts from time to time on the blog yeah? 谢谢大家!

Refined version:
I’m here at this press conference today for one reason - I’d like to tell you in my own words how sorry I truly am. I have to express my deepest apologies to my family, my wife’s family, our friends and all those who have loved me because I‘ve made a mistake. A mistake which I can never make up for. A mistake that is unforgivable. Because of this wrong that I’ve done, I’ve been reviewing and reflecting on my behaviour. Indeed, I’ve made a disgrace of myself. That’s why I’m here today to tell you that I shall bear full responsibility for what I’ve done.
It is true that I was under the heavy influence of alcohol that day, but being drunk can in no way excuse the grave mistake that I’ve made. I have felt deeply regretful for what I’ve done. I have found it difficult to face and accept myself. After reading the news report, I have found myself and my behaviour most shameful, deplorable, abominable, disgusting and absurd. I have pondered and reflected deeply on why I had not been able to exercise better self control and why lust would have had the better of me.
I shall bear full responsibility for what I’ve done. To that end, I shall do two things. The first thing is that I shall suspend all projects at hand until I found good in myself again and I have examined the way I’ve been conducting myself. The second thing is that I have, from the bottom of my soul, found myself to be ridiculous. Because of my wrongful behaviour, people around me, who have loved me, have been facing up to immense stress and pain. I hope that I could properly make it up to all those on whom I have inflicted pain. This report has made me reflect deeply on what I’ve done. The worst mistake that I’ve committed here is that I’ve gone astray from my former self. Last but not least, I need to say this to all those who have loved me once again: I have brought shame on you all; I’ve been wrong and I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Sammi. I don’t know what I am going to do in the future. I am a heartless and broken mess. I hope everyone will be kind enough to let me have the time (to make amends for what I’ve done).

❀ DO READ ❀
I had 30 minutes to learn the dance before breaking my fast (it is currently Ramadan) (I nearly died), then I proceeded to record after a quick bite and drinking lots of water. I wanted to perfect the dance and attend to every detail but I was informed last minute that I will be heading to my hometown tomorrow... so DANG IT. I was still keen on getting this out today, so that costed me mistakes ☹
After watching SISTAR's video after recording, I noticed the several mistakes I made:
0:58 | Left hand should be on my head
2:22 | Both arms should go to the right side then left instead of open close
I am truly regretful for the mistakes I made, but I hope you guys still enjoyed it! ♥
ON A BRIGHTER NOTE, I am slayed and left speechless because my QUEENS ARE BACK! /screams/ SISTAR FOREVER
