(思忖著父親節)我來台灣快10年了,由於距離太遠我爸至今沒能來看我。他的身體不好,加上飲食的問題,長途飛行對他來說將會是一場噩夢,所以我總是回到美國,從沒想過要他飛來台灣。不過,在他 2017 年再婚後,飛來台灣成為可能的事,兩個人一起旅行比一個人旅行容易多了,因此他們計劃拜訪我,並打算在去年三月第一次拜訪台灣。不幸的是,幾乎所有航班都在 2020 年春季取消,因此這次旅行並沒有成形,且可能不再有下一次機會......我昨晚和他談過,明年也許我可能會飛回美國,至少我們還能在美國團聚,他不再單單只是個父親,而是一個祖父,我哥哥已經生了兩個小孩,我還沒有見過他們,雖然現在仍然不是一個很好的旅遊時機,但我們希望明年疫情會好轉。
我想作為父親是一項艱鉅的工作。回想起來,我知道我沒有讓它變得容易。他大部分時間也是單親父親,在我母親去世 22 年後,他終於再婚了,非常恭喜他!我最後一次見到他,還是在這張四年前的他的婚禮上(照片中)。再過3天我父親將滿 70 歲,祝福我的爸爸和所有的爸爸,尤其是所有的單身爸爸,父親節快樂。

(Fathers Day Musings) I've been in Taiwan for almost 10 years now, but my dad has so far been unable to visit me here. He's in poor health and has a lot of food issues that make plane travel a logistical nightmare. So I always went back to the USA and never expected him to be able to come here. After he married in 2017 though, it became a real possibility. Traveling together is easier than traveling alone, so they made plans to visit me and had intended to arrive in Taiwan for the first time in March of last year. Basically all travel was cancelled in spring of 2020 though, so that trip didn't happen. And it looks like it might never happen... But I talked to him last night and it seems like I might be able to go to the USA next year, so at least theres that. He's not just a father anymore, but a grandfather. My brother has two kids now that I've never seen and while it's still a terrible time to travel, we can hope that next year will be better.
It's a hard job being a father I think. Looking back I know that I didn't make it easy. He was a single father for most of it too, but 22 years after my mother died he finally remarried. So congratulations to him. The last time I saw him was at his own wedding 4 years ago. He turns 70 in 3 days. So to all the Dad's out there and especially all the single dad's out there, Happy Fathers Days.
(PS: And to all the son's out there, get your Dad something nice.
15% off all outdoor clothing through 8/15. And also take him somewhere nice. It's raining everywhere this weekend... but the sun will come out tomorrow.)

「always raining here」的推薦目錄:
always raining here 在 Hapa Eikaiwa Facebook 的最佳貼文
=================================
「〜した方がいい」を英語で言う際に「Should」しか使ってない人へ
=================================
人に提案やアドバイスする時、または自分の意見を述べる際に「Should」を使って「〜した方がいい」と表現するのは既にご存知かと思います。しかし「Should」を使った表現だけでは、自分の想いの細かいニュアンスまで相手に的確に伝えることはできません。状況に応じて適切な表現の仕方があるのでご紹介します。
--------------------------------------------------
1) Had better
→「〜した方がいい・〜した方が身のためだ」
--------------------------------------------------
このフレーズは“Should”と同様「〜をした方がいい」を意味しますが、“Should”は単に提案・アドバイス・意見などをするのに対し、“Had better”は何か望ましくない事態を避けるために提案する場合に用いられます。例えば、風邪を引いているだけの友達には「You should go see doctor.(病院へ行った方がいいですよ)」でいいかと思いますが、転んで深い切り傷を負った友達には「You had better go see a doctor.(病院へ行った方がいいですよ)」と言うべきでしょう。病院へ行って直ぐに処置しないと悪化する可能性があるのでここでは“had better”を使う方が適切です。
✔“Should”は提案したことを実行することでポジティブな結果に繋がる。
✔“had better”は提案したことを実行しないとネガティブな結果に繋がる。
✔日常会話では“had better”を“'d better”と短縮し、また“d”を発音しない人も多い。「I had better」→「I'd better(I better)」、「You had better」→「You'd better(You better)」など。
<例文>
You'd better bring an umbrella. It's raining outside.
(雨が降っているので、傘を持って行ったほうがいいよ。)
You'd better not leave your cell phone on the table. This is not Japan. Someone is going to snag it.
(テーブルに携帯を置きっぱなしにせんときや〜。ここは日本ちゃうねんから。誰かが盗みよんで。)
I'd better get going. I'm meeting a client in 15 minutes.
(15分後にクライアントと会う約束があるので、そろそろ行かないといけません。)
--------------------------------------------------
2) Might as well
→「〜した方がよさそうだ」
--------------------------------------------------
このフレーズは、置かれた状況から判断して「〜をした方がよさそうだ」と提案をする場合に使われる表現です。肝心なポイントは、他により良い選択肢や方法がないが故に「〜した方がいい」と提案することです。例えば、あなたの家で友達と深夜までお酒を飲んでいたとしましょう。終電を逃し、タクシーで帰ると高額になることから「今夜、うちに泊まっていった方がいいよ」と友達に提案する場合は「You might as well spend the night here.」と言います。
✔日常会話では「他にすることがないから〜をしよう」という意味としても使われる。
✔“Might”を“May”に置き換てもOK。意味とニュアンスは全く同じ。
<例文>
It's going to take 45 minutes for the taxi to arrive. We might as well walk home.
(タクシーが来るまで45分かかるって。歩いて帰った方がよさそうだね。)
I have nothing to do today. I might as well work on my project.
(今日はやることがないので、プロジェクトに取り組んだ方がよさそうだ。)
John is going to be an hour late. We might as well start ordering.
(ジョンは1時間遅れるんやて。先に注文しとこか。)
--------------------------------------------------
3) It might be a good idea to _____
→「〜した方がいいかもしれない」
--------------------------------------------------
この表現を直訳すると「〜をするのはいいアイディアかもしれません」となり、控えめに提案したりアドバイスする際にピッタリのフレーズです。例えば「あのレストランはいつも混んでいるので予約をした方がいいかもしれません」と友達に提案する場合は「That restaurant is always crowded. It might be a good idea to make a reservation.」となります。
<例文>
If you want to beat traffic, it might be a good idea to leave early.
(渋滞を避けたいなら早めに出発した方がいいかもしれません。)
It might be a good idea to read the reviews before you buy it.
(その商品を買う前にレビューを読んだ方がいいかもしれません。)
It might be a good idea to ask him for advice. He knows a lot about stocks.
(彼は株について詳しいのでアドバイスを聞いてみたら?)

Lyrics:
You have my heart
你已佔據我的心
We'll never be worlds apart
你我永不分離
Maybe in magazines
就算分隔兩地
But you'll still be my star
你依然是我的愛
Baby cause in the dark
親愛的因為在黑暗中
You can see shiny cars
你總能看到閃光的車
And that's when you need me there
在你需要我的時候
With you I'll always share
我願一直為你付出
Because
因為
When the sun shines, we'll shine together
當陽光普照 你我也將閃耀光彩
Told you I'll be here forever
我要告訴你我會永遠在此守候
Said I'll always be your friend
我要告訴你我願一直伴你左右
Took an oath and I'm sticking out to the end
我願發出誓言 對你永不變心
Now that it's raining more than ever
儘管雨勢比以往兇猛
Know that we'll still have each other
但我們還能相互依偎
You can stand under my umbrella
你可以來到我的傘下
You can stand under my umbrella
你可以來到我的傘下
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
(我的傘下)
Under my umbrella
與我共撐同一把傘
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
(同一把傘)
These fancy things,will never come in between
世間紛擾永遠不能將你我阻隔
You're part of my entity, here for infinity
你是我生命的一部分直至永遠
When the war has took its part
當戰爭爆發的時候
When the world has dealt its cards
當世界末日的時候
If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart
倘若不能攜手 就一起撫慰心靈
Because
因為
When the sun shines, we'll shine together
當陽光普照 你我也將閃耀光彩
Told you I'll be here forever
我要告訴你我會永遠在此守候
Said I'll always be your friend
我要告訴你我願一直伴你左右
Took an oath and I'm sticking out to the end
我願發出誓言 對你永不變心
Now that it's raining more than ever
儘管雨勢比以往兇猛
Know that we'll still have each other
但我們還能相互依偎
You can stand under my umbrella
你可以來到我的傘下
You can stand under my umbrella
你可以來到我的傘下
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
(我的傘下)
Under my umbrella
與我共撐同一把傘
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
(同一把傘)
It's raining
大雨傾盆而下
Oh, baby, it's raining
親愛的 大雨傾盆而下
You can always come into to me
親愛的 快來到我身邊
Come into me
快來到我身邊

always raining here 在 Dennis Yin Youtube 的精選貼文
My first scratch on my brand new car. It hurts! Even tho it's a small one, it is still a scratch... but I didn't ask the guy to pay. Probably me being dumb, but it was raining, and he was on his way to sell his fishes at the market. So yeah... let it go~
Anyways, always a good workout when it's with @chengyewdarren.
Check out his IG, he goes insane with his workout!!
Other than that, thanks to @lifestyleasiakl and ANDY for having Jazel and myself over for a food & drinks tasting at Acme Bar and Coffee at Pavilion.
Was a good long day!
Thanks again for watching guys!!! Love y'all!
If you've read till here, just pat yourself on your back... That's actually me giving you a virtual massage ;)
hehehehe
