【一切的失敗和不足，都是最美好的安排】
All Failures & Lacks Are The Best Things to Happen to Us
三個月前，收到來自台灣客人的這封電郵時，開心和心酸交織著在心裡。
開心，因為這是一年前通過Zoom視訊的客人。他居然在我們看八字的一週年，特地寫了封感謝函給我，真有心！
心酸，因為他寫在電郵裡的低落心情，我完完全全明白。
他的經歷，是我的曾經。我當初也是很難，很久才能走出來。
有一回，我為一位芳華正茂的女子批八字時，她很用心的寫下我說的話。
論寫筆記的完整，她是我客人當中的佼佼者。
寫到一半，我注意到她的右手開始微微顫抖。我以為是空調的風太大了，冷到她，便問她要不要披巾。
她說，是她的焦慮症發作。
「我沒在兇你，也沒對你嚴厲，你為何突然焦慮？」
「我.....打從今年疫情打亂了我的計畫，我就一直很焦慮。我覺得我很沒用，同學們都前進了，只有我現在什麼都不是，亂糟糟的。我就一直很緊張，萬一我一直都是這樣，怎麼辦？」
說著，她眼眶一紅，眼淚像斷了線的珍珠鏈似的灑下來。
我的媽呀！是我的樣子長得很催淚，還是我的聲音聽起來很虐心？怎麼客人，不分男女老少，東南西北，看到我好像都很容易哭？
我抓起一張紙巾遞給她。
「所以，我不是來了嗎？你來找我，就是要問個明路，而你很幸運那麼快就看到我啦！你看你的筆記寫得多工整，多齊全。我很多客人都不如你啊！我今天的工作，就是來給你答案的。我沒有把握，也不會接你這份差事。我接了，就代表還可以補救。你照著我的指示去做，一定柳暗花明又一村。」
又另一回，一位四十多歲的媽媽請我看兒子的八字。
我在批著八字時，這位媽媽點頭認同，然後就聲淚俱下。
我轉頭看著她沈默不語的先生。我說錯了什麼嗎？太太哭成淚人，你怎麼連紙巾也不拿給她啊？
「我是個沒有用的母親，很不稱職的母親。我沒有辦法教好孩子。我很愛他，可是很多時候我都不知道要怎麼做，我就會對他發脾氣，說狠話，過後我又後悔。我忍下來，可是後來還是會一樣！」
我沒打斷她，等她的哭聲逐漸小聲後，我柔柔的說：「我來啦！我坐在你前面了。你已經看到我，就是有辦法了。你知道你自己不行，會去找辦法，就代表你願意去學習做個好媽媽啊！」
我把紙巾遞給她，再說：「不要哭了，要不然，別人看了以為是我不要借你錢，才把你弄得那麼傷心。」
曾幾何時，我們都會以外在所擁有的，來定義自己的人生是否值得自己喜歡。
從原生家庭、樣貌、健康、身型、智力、天賦等，到後來的學歷、友情、事業、財富、婚姻、子女......
哪一樣沒有，而偏偏是我們最想要的，我們就會認定自己失敗的一塌糊塗。
我認為這就是普通教育最大的問題所在。父母老師都是這樣把我們「分門別類」的。值不值得父母疼愛或向親朋戚友炫耀，也離不開那幾點。
久而久之，我們也只會以「成功」來定義自己是否有價值，甚至來衡量自己是否有活下去的勇氣。
我比較喜歡佛法的定義。我們每個人都是一尊佛，六道眾生皆有佛性，只因一時的迷，因此墮落在苦輪不停的輪迴。
可正因為我們有佛性，我們都有無窮無盡的可能。每個人的內在有著很強大的力量，等著我們遇到明師後，去發掘、探索和了解。
而這天生俱來的力量，就是你改命立命的資本。
如果人生順風順水，我們永遠不會想要出離，誤把人間當極樂，所以一定要有苦，我們才會意識到，為什麼我們會在這鬼地方？要怎麼樣才可以離開這鬼地方去到極樂？
反過來，我們都應該感恩自己遇到的挫折，因為從這些苦中，我們才能生出智慧。
沒有一個八字是完美的。一切的失敗和不足，都是最美好的安排，如此你才會有出離心，返本歸源。
_______________________
3 months ago, when I received this email from my Taiwan client, there was this feeling of bittersweetness.
I was happy because this was the client I did a Zoom consultation last June. He sent me this email on the one-year anniversary date of our Zoom call, to express his gratitude. How sweet!
On the other hand, I could relate to the emotional turmoil he felt at that point in his life.
His experience was my past. It also took me a very long time to walk out from my gloominess.
Once, I analysed the Bazi of a very young lady. She was meticulously jotting down notes as I spoke.
Her detailed note-taking skills easily took the top place among my clients.
Halfway through, I noticed her right hand was trembling slightly. I thought it was due to the cold draft from the air conditioning, so I asked if she needed a shawl.
She replied that it was her anxiety disorder acting up.
“I was not fierce or strict with you. What caused your sudden anxiety?”
“I…ever since the pandemic disrupted my plans, I have been in this state of anxiety. I kept feeling useless. All my classmates are progressing expect me. I have nothing to show for and my life is in a mess. I am very anxious. What if I continue to be like this? What am I going to do?”
As she spoke, her eyes turned red and tears started rolling down like a broken strand of pearl necklace scattering onto the ground.
Oh dear! I am beginning to wonder if I have a tear-jerker face or a heart-tormenting voice. Why do my clients, regardless of gender and age, North South or East West, seem to cry easily when they see me?
I grabbed a piece of tissue and handed it to her.
“Ain’t I here already? You came to me for a roadmap and you are very lucky to see me so soon. Look at how precise and neat your notes are! Many of my clients aren’t even on par with you. My job today is to give you answers. If I didn’t have the confidence, I would not have taken up your request. Now that I did, that means there is still hope. If you follow my instructions, you will see things looking up very soon.”
On another occasion, a mother in her forties came to me for her son’s Bazi consultation.
As I was analysing, the mother nodded her head in agreement. The next thing I know, she started weeping loudly.
I turned to look at her husband, who had been silent all along. Did I say something wrong? And hello, your wife was crying. Why weren’t you gentleman enough to give her a tissue paper?
“I am a useless mother. I am incompetent. I do not know how to teach my son well. I love my son very much. But many times, I do not know what to do and thus I flare up at him and speak harshly. I always regret afterwards. I tried enduring but it still ends badly!”
I did not interrupt her and waited for her cries to soften, before speaking gently, “I’m here! I’m already sitting in front of you. You are looking at me now and that means help is here. You know that you are incompetent, so you went looking for solutions. That means you are willing to learn how to be a better mother!”
I handed a piece of tissue and said, “Don’t cry anymore, otherwise, other patrons will think that it’s because I refuse to lend you money.”
Since young, we have been using external possessions to define whether our lives are worth liking.
The family we are born into, our looks, health, body shape, intellect, talents, and then we move on to compare our academics, friendships, career, wealth, marriage and children.
If we are lacking in the area we covet most, we grade our lives as a failure.
I think this is the biggest problem in societal education. Our parents and teachers categorized us that way. Whether we as children are worthy of their love and bragging, depends on the few points above too.
Thus over time, we can only use the term “success” to determine whether we are of value, for some people, whether they should live on to take their next breath.
I very much prefer the definition in Buddhism. We are all Buddhas. Each and every sentient being in the six realms has a Buddha nature in them. But they got lost momentarily and fell into the endless wheel of reincarnation.
Yet, because of our Buddha nature, we have an unlimited source of potential. Every one of us has a very powerful strength inside us. It is just waiting for us to meet an accomplished teacher, so that we have the tools to explore and understand it:
And this strength that we are born with is the capital for us to transform and establish our own destiny.
If life is smooth-sailing, we would never want to leave and would mistake this mortal realm for Pureland. Thus, we all need sufferings, to realise that we should break out of this hell of a place. There has to be a better world somewhere. So how we get there?
We should, in fact, be grateful for all the setbacks and failures we have. Because it is from these sufferings, our wisdom arise:
No single Bazi is perfect. Every failure and lack we experience is the best arrangement for us, so that the heart of renunciation will arise in us and we will return to where we came from.

胡夏《那些年》（電影「那些年，我們一起追的女孩」主題曲）小提琴版本
| Violin cover by Lin Tzu An of《Those Bygone Years》by Xia Hu
不管是電影還是這主題曲「那些年」，都有讓人回到過去青春時空的神秘力量😆
甚至紅到名列韓國人喜愛的台灣電影前五名，也在當時讓柯震東和陳妍希爆紅！
我也試著拉拉看（雙關）把大家一起拉回過去的青澀回憶，讓大家不要忘記心裡的初衷、不忘記青春年少曾有的感動、不忘記在曾經一起笑過哭過的朋友們，也不忘記那個曾經深深愛過的女孩。
雖然很多人常常提起這部電影就是講到男女主角，可是背後的意義更好：喜歡一件事一個人，不要計較輸贏，活在當下享受過程，比最後的結果要來的更重要。
最後即使沒有happy ending，也謝謝過去有你陪我走過這段的感覺：）

Not sure if it's within the movie or hidden behind the theme song, the song is always like gravity pulling us bak to the past, so today's cover is trying to attract every single one of you back to those time, reminding those smile and tears good or bad =]
btw the movie is soooooooo famous that it's listed as top 5 fav Taiwanese movies by Koreans.
Tho some would mention those love and affairs in the movie, personally I'd prefer the" love at the moment," like we don't necessarily have a happy ending in the end, but I do appreciate the time we've been together. What's yours? commment below to let me know!
Should you have any request regarding cover songs, just comment below and let me know.

青豆 200g Green peas
新鮮薄荷葉 Fresh mint leaves
無鹽牛油 45g Unsalted butter
芥花籽油 Canola Oil
鹽 Salt
檸檬酸豆牛油 Lemon Caper butter
酸豆 3 茶匙 3 tablespoon Capers
無鹽牛油 25g Unsalted butter
檸檬 1/2 Lemon
鹽 Salt
風琴焗薯 Hasselback Potato
薯仔 1 Potato
百里香 Thyme
橄欖油 Olive Oil
鹽 Salt
風琴焗薯 Hasselback Potato
1. 焗爐預熱185度。
Preheat over to 185c.
2. 將薯仔切成風琴狀，每層約2mm厚。底部預留1.5cm，不要切斷。
Slice the potato the same way as the video, about 2mm between each cut. Do not cut to the bottom, about 1.5cm from the bottom usually works well.
3. 薯仔放置焗盆上，淋上適量橄欖油。加份鹽調味後，放入焗爐。
Place the potato on a baking tray, drizzle a good amount of olive oil on the potato. Sprinkle some salt and place in oven.
4. 185度焗60分鐘至金黃色。
Bake 60mins until the potato is crispy on the edges.
5. 焗好後放上新鮮百里香。
Add some fresh thyme to the potato before eating.
青豆薄荷醬 Minted Peas Sauce
1. 青豆加入講量鹽煮熟後，瀝乾及放入攪拌機。
Boil some frozen peas in salted water. Remove from water and put into a blender.
2. 加入薄荷葉、牛油及適量鹽。攪拌至蓉狀。
Add mint leaves, butter and salt, blend.
檸檬酸豆牛油 Lemon Caper butter
1. 加熱平底鑊。檸檬切半後，放至熱鑊上，煎至表面呈焦糖色。
Cut half a lemon and place it on a hot pan until it is slightly caramelized.
2. 牛油放入另一平底鍋內。
Add butter into a saucepan.
3. 酸豆搾乾水份，加入平底鍋內。煮一分鐘後放置。
Squeeze the water from the capers and add into butter, set aside after about 1min of cooking.
香煎嫩滑三文魚 Pan Fried Salmon
1. 三文魚排清洗乾淨及抹乾，放置室溫。
Clean and dry the piece of salmon fillet and make sure it is at room temperature before you start cooking it.
2. 熱平底鑊加入芥花籽油。
Heat pan and add Canola oil.
3. 芥花籽油加熱後，放入三文魚排，魚皮一面朝下。
When the oil is very hot, place salmon skin side down.
4. 灑上鹽調味。
You can salt the salmon now.
5. 煎約2分鐘後反面。
Flip over after about 2mins.
6. 魚皮面灑上適量鹽調味。將熱油淋上魚皮面，繼續煎香。
Salt the skin side and spoon hot oil over the fish and keep cooking.
7. 煎約3分鐘後，盛起三文魚排，放置。
Total cooking time is usually around 5mins. Set fish aside once done.
8. 將三文魚放於青豆醬上。淋上酸豆牛油及擠檸檬汁。
Add minted peas to plate, place salmon fillet on top, spoon on the capers and butter mixture. Add a squeeze of the lemon.
Notes from Eddie:
1. Make sure the salmon fillet is in room temperature before you start cooking. I would bring out the fish about an hour before I start cooking.
2. Make sure the fillet is quite dry before you cook. Use a knife to scrape off any excess moisture from the skin.
3. You can use fresh peas if you can find, but frozen one is also fine.
4. Use Canola oil for panfrying salmon fillet. It is better for the recipe as the oil has a higher burning point.
5. While frying the fish, I usually lift the fish to check the skin, you want it to turn golden brown.
關於此食譜 About:
This is one of my favourite ways to eat Salmon. I also like it because it’s quite simple to make. Try your best to buy some good quality salmon, my favourite is King Salmon from New Zealand. My favourite part of the salmon is the belly so make sure you get a piece that includes some belly parts. The most important part of this salmon is making sure that its quite dry before you cook. There is a lot of moisture in the skin and I find the best way is to scrape it off with a knife. Keep scraping till no more moisture comes off the skin of the fish. Dry the other side with some kitchen towel. I prefer not to salt the fish until I cook it as more moisture will come off the fish if you salt it too early.

-------------------------------------------------------
This time, I made "Amazingly Yummy Pickled Vegetables" from a treasured
recipe that my father left for my family before he passed away.
In order to make it easy even for me as a child to make, My father's
idea was to make it tasty without all the difficult steps.
The sauce has a good combination of various dashi and has a very deep flavor.
I had a hard time deciding whether or not to publish this recipe
because I had such strong feelings about it.
My father really loved to see the smiles on the faces of his
customers, so I decided to make a video because I thought he would be
happy in heaven if I could bring smiles to the faces of as many
families as possible with this recipe in a world that's in trouble
with Corona.
This recipe can be used not only with somen noodles, but also with
udon noodles, rice, tofu, chicken, pork, salads, etc.
There are no limits to what you can eat with it.
Even if the marinating time is short, the crunchy texture of the
vegetables is fun and delicious, and after half a day, the flavors
have soaked in and it tastes great.
I hope you will try both of them.
It's really easy to make, so please give it a try!
