《Back to One》album track 4 - The Night You Brought Me Flowers
I was 33 years old, he was 29. It was the first time a guy brought me flowers. Honestly, I did not know how to react. I simply could not believe a guy like G, who seemingly had it all, would do such a romantic thing like that. No, it didn’t work out at the end, but something beautiful remains.
The Night You Brought Me Flowers
(Chet Lam)
Have seen you a few times
It felt alright
No one needs to rush into anything
All my friends around are telling me
Don‘t devote everything too fast
Just remember what happened last time
Not too soon, not too late
You appeared
Ambiguous words, light hearted jokes are adorable
Even a candle light dinner will be manageable
Until tonight, you bring me flowers...
Then I remember
the first time when I missed someone
The first time I was fearless
For one heartfelt moment
How much is too much to pay?
All my life no one has ever brought me flowers
until you
Of course I don’t know how to take it
Then you kiss me without a word
Like saying everything will be okay
How many hopes turned into disappointment
Sometimes I even worry for nothing
All friends around are feeling for me
But I am more concerned
if I could feel nothing anymore
Yesterday has gone
Tomorrow no one can be sure
At this point in my life
I think I am not asking for too much
I just want some options
not too many, not too few
Now you bring me flowers
You freeze, I am speechless
Oh geez, It was all okay a minute ago...
You and your flowers
How much will it cost me this time?
Then you kiss me again without a word
And all I wish is ...
I don’t have to choose again from now on

《思源》專輯第四首:花事未了
害怕沒有選擇,但有時可以選擇的時候反而會更害怕;那年夏天的那個約會,把我殺一個措手不及:G出現在我家門前,手中拿著一束花。開心是當然的,但那一瞬間我實在不懂反應,心想,29歲的他條件這麼好,竟然會做這個看似簡單但意義非凡的動作,我實在受寵若驚。最後我們也沒有在一起,但我會永遠記得開門的那一剎那。
花事未了
(曲詞:林一峰)
你跟一束花
我不懂招架
約會幾次感覺不錯
沒人需要急著承諾
身邊朋友都告訴我
別太快付出太多 記得上次結果
不早不晚你出現了
語帶相關說說笑話
燭光晚餐都不可怕
今晚你竟帶來一束花 我記得
第一次牽掛
第一次什麼都不怕
為一次盛放的心
值得付出多少代價
活到現在才第一次收花
我當然不懂得招架
你親親我沒有說話
像說一切都會好好的
多少希望變成失望
也曾試過虛驚一場
身邊朋友替我喊痛
但是我更加擔心 變得無動於衷
昨天的路 已經走過
明天的路 誰有把握
現在的我 不求什麼
有些選擇不少不多 我記得
第一次牽掛
第一次什麼都不怕
為一次盛放的心
值得付出多少代價
活到現在才第一次收花
我當然不懂得招架
你呆著 我沒有說話
我想一切本來好好的
你跟一束花
要我付出什麼代價
你再親親我沒有說話
我希望從今以後
我不需要再選擇
#思源 #花事未了

too rush to do something 在 Facebook 的最讚貼文
Something for you to ponder ... A friend shared and I BELIEVE YOU should read it tooooooo。。。。
Let's say you woke up with a terrible cough, fever and body chills. Immediately, you rush to the hospital and unfortunately, you’re tested positive for COVID-19. For the last two weeks, you’ve been unaware that you were infected and you’ve ignored "the rules." You've gotten together with some close friends for pizza, had a few people over, even visited a park and a beach. You figured, “I don’t feel sick. I have the right to keep living my normal life. No one can tell me what to do."
With your diagnosis, you spend the next few days at home on the couch, feeling pretty crappy; but then you’re well again because you’re young, healthy and strong. Lucky you. But your best friend caught it from you during a visit to your house, and because she didn't know she was contagious, she visited her 82-year-old grandfather, who uses oxygen tanks daily to help him breathe because he has COPD and heart failure. Now, he’s dead.
Your co-worker, who has asthma, caught it too, during your little pizza get-together. Now, he’s in the ICU, and he's spread it to a few others in his family, too--but they won't know that for another couple of weeks yet.
The cashier at the restaurant where you picked up the pizza carried the infection home to his wife, who has MS, which makes her immunosuppressed. She’s not as lucky as you, so she’s admitted to the hospital because she’s having trouble breathing. She may need to be placed in a medically-induced coma and intubated; she may not get to say goodbye to her loved ones. She may die surrounded by machines, with no family at her bedside.
All because you couldn't stand the inconvenience of a mask, of staying home, of changing your familiar routines for just a little while. Because you have the right, above all others rights, to continue living your normal life and no one, I mean no one, has the right to tell you what to do.

Interview with a Founder: Beryl Liu (Co-founder of Matters Lab)
By Norman Chi, Analyst
Beryl Liu is the co-founder and COO of Matters Lab and was previously the Operations Director of Initium Media. An experienced startup operator, Beryl once led the global operations of Aivvy, a music-tech startup which won the innovation award at CES. She was involved in running a Hong Kong-based NGO in Greater China.
1. What early experience shaped who you are?
I am always passionate about the media because it can bring social value to the public, it’s THE thing I value most and deeply rooted in my heart. But I will say other than my passion, the sum of my experiences also is a big part of who I am now.
After graduating from college, I chose to become an editor in Hong Kong's first all-electronic media as my first job. Before starting Matters, I’ve joined several different groups and startups, including one NGO, one silicon valley startup and Initium Media which allows me to step out of my comfort zone, broaden my horizons, know more about new disruptive technologies like blockchain and learn how startups work. All these unique experiences and passion for media shaped who I am now.
2. Who is your role model as a founder?
I will say there are two types of role models I look up to. One is successful and inspiring entrepreneurs, the other is someone who you are close to and can resonate with.
For the first type of role model, there are too many entrepreneurs I look up to. Among these successful stories, one key thing I will particularly be inspired by is how these entrepreneurs find a breakthrough and identify the right path to stand out. Like Stewart Butterfield’s founding journey of Flickr, even though the original online game idea wasn't working, he had the crazy vision and quickly learned and found out the true needs of users: real-time interaction around photos, and then based on the findings, he launched Flickr and turned it into a success. This type of founders are the role models I would especially look up to and want to share the same vision as they do.
But these great entrepreneurs are too far from our life and work, you can’t fully resonate with these entrepreneurs. So my mom became one of the role models I look up to since I can relate to her story more easily even though she’s not a founder. For the past 10 years, she had a relatively weak physical condition and underwent several severe surgeries which often left patients in pain and despair. But she kept fighting and fighting with a positive attitude, dealing with the pain and pressure, and always looked on the bright side, which really inspired me at my darkest moments, this is the kind of story you can always keep in mind and gather momentum from.
3. What is the biggest mistake and takeaway in your founder journey so far?
The entire entrepreneurship is the endless journey of trial and error until you find PMF (Product Market Fit), so before that, don’t rush to do premature scaling with limited resources. We tried to do too many things in 2018 because back at that time we thought we were ready to scale up, but actually we weren't, and we didn’t allocate the resources properly, leading to a bunch of conflicts both internally and externally. It was a costly lesson we learned after these series of poor decisions we made.
As a result, if you figure out you’ve made a bad decision, founders must learn how to set a stop-loss. Admitting and giving up on one decision you made is difficult, but when you admit something is wrong, it helps you to redirect to the right direction and potentially lower future costs. What’s more, it’s the failure that allows you to rethink and reflect on your goals.

Sorry about the white balance. Shot this in a rush.
Doing an unboxing to share my experience with everyone. There was so much stuff and there were even digital prizes (like a 1 year subscription for Creative Cloud) and I am so grateful for everything.
Just want to let everyone watching this know that I was in your position too. I wished I won competitions. I wish I had more gear. I wish I was someone else. These things don't come often, they don't come easy. I joined MANY MANY MANY competitions and this is only one of the handful I won something from. Be patient, don't give up and always keep working on your craft and you be successful one day.
With that being said, thank you so much Rode Microphones. This means so much to me!
And thank you for watching!
If you have questions on photography, filmmaking or life in general, ask away!
Lets do something together! Ask me anything you'd like!
