“你做得再多永遠不夠，但放手一搏就對了” 歐巴馬得到諾貝爾和平獎後，感受到過去爭取和平自由的勇士們內心的吶喊

“Whatever you do won’t be enough, I heard their voices say. Try anyway.”

十分應景的一本書。沉甸甸的八百多頁花了好久才讀完。如果以個人故事來說，我喜歡他妻子蜜雪兒歐巴馬的自傳。但做8年美國總統的視角，其中的精采和豐富經驗絕，非一般書籍可以看到。歐巴馬的文筆相當好（我這次讀中文版都可以感覺到。也感謝出版社翻譯得如此到位！），從他的筆下可以一窺這精彩的8年這位大國領袖如何思考世界各種大事。（這裡是讀書心得分享，沒有要討論政治喔！）

讀這本書最大的感想就是美國許多議題上的兩極化，並不是現在才開始的。從二戰後許多的事件堆疊在一起，再加上飛行越來越方便，兩黨國會議員並不是都住在華府，彼此和彼此家庭之間沒有像以前那樣的互動，讓跨黨派合作推動重要議題的難度加高。歐巴馬一就任，要先面對2008年金融危機的問題，以及後來處理健保的問題，都可以看見爭取雙方合作的難度之高。

再來他從參議員快速竄起，並且後來成為總統，他自己都形容是由一種神奇的動能(momentum) 在推進的這一切。這當中他成功的使用網路的力量，在小額募款以及理念的傳播上，都比對手更加善用。但他也承認後來許多議題的推動，甚至是演講時不小心說錯話，還有許多決策未明時的各種小道消息，同樣也因著網路的力量，變得更難溝通更難釐清了。當時被競爭對手碰及經驗不足的他，的確展現了快速學習，找出中心思想的能力。他敘述如何組織各式團隊，找出當中的菁英，並且能夠對各種議題快速學習，到能夠判斷專家們給他的建議，都是很值得借鏡的精神。

為什麼要取名為“應許之地”呢？我認為就像以色列人出埃及的故事一般，通往自由的應許之地，路程往往比想像中的更漫長，但絕對值得世代合作努力，走到那樣的一個願景。他在美國人一片期望改變的聲浪中當選總統，帶著熱情的理想個性努力著，卻也深深的體會到期望值過高時，人們容易放棄希望的傾向。寫這本自傳，除了誠實地盤點自己的經歷之外，歐巴馬也是在傳達這一種堅毅的盼望 -- 真正自由平等的社會雖然路途遙遙，甚至一個世代難以完成，但絕對值得放手一搏去努力，並且相信一代一定比一代更好。

“The truth is, I’ve never been a big believer in destiny. I worry that it encourages resignation in the down-and-out and complacency among the powerful. I suspect that God’s plan, whatever it is, works on a scale too large to admit our mortal tribulations; that in a single lifetime, accidents and happenstance determine more than we care to admit.”

（其實我從來就不是一個堅決相信宿命的人，為我認為那樣的想法會讓卑微的人放棄努力而有權力的人維持現狀。我猜測上帝的計畫，不管那計畫是什麼，遠超過我們有限生命的苦難。這一個人的有生年日，意外和機運對我們的影響，超過我們所願意承認的範圍）

【#拜登就職演說全文】★中英版本★
資料來源：美國白宮新聞稿
This is America’s day. This is democracy’s day.

A day of history and hope. Of renewal and resolve.

Through a crucible for the ages America has been tested anew and America has risen to the challenge.

Today, we celebrate the triumph not of a candidate, but of a cause, the cause of democracy.

The will of the people has been heard and the will of the people has been heeded.

We have learned again that democracy is precious.

Democracy is fragile.

And at this hour, my friends, democracy has prevailed.

So now, on this hallowed ground where just days ago violence sought to shake this Capitol’s very foundation, we come together as one nation, under God, indivisible, to carry out the peaceful transfer of power as we have for more than two centuries.

We look ahead in our uniquely American way – restless, bold, optimistic – and set our sights on the nation we know we can be and we must be.

I thank my predecessors of both parties for their presence here.

I thank them from the bottom of my heart.

You know the resilience of our Constitution and the strength of our nation.

As does President Carter, who I spoke to last night but who cannot be with us today, but whom we salute for his lifetime of service.

I have just taken the sacred oath each of these patriots took — an oath first sworn by George Washington.

But the American story depends not on any one of us, not on some of us, but on all of us.

On “We the People” who seek a more perfect Union.

This is a great nation and we are a good people.

Over the centuries through storm and strife, in peace and in war, we have come so far. But we still have far to go.

We will press forward with speed and urgency, for we have much to do in this winter of peril and possibility.

Much to repair.

Much to restore.

Much to heal.

Much to build.

And much to gain.

Few periods in our nation’s history have been more challenging or difficult than the one we’re in now.

A once-in-a-century virus silently stalks the country.

It’s taken as many lives in one year as America lost in all of World War II.

Millions of jobs have been lost.

Hundreds of thousands of businesses closed.

A cry for racial justice some 400 years in the making moves us. The dream of justice for all will be deferred no longer.

A cry for survival comes from the planet itself. A cry that can’t be any more desperate or any more clear.

And now, a rise in political extremism, white supremacy, domestic terrorism that we must confront and we will defeat.

To overcome these challenges – to restore the soul and to secure the future of America – requires more than words.

It requires that most elusive of things in a democracy:

Unity.

Unity.

In another January in Washington, on New Year’s Day 1863, Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation.

When he put pen to paper, the President said, “If my name ever goes down into history it will be for this act and my whole soul is in it.”

My whole soul is in it.

Today, on this January day, my whole soul is in this:

Bringing America together.

Uniting our people.

And uniting our nation.

I ask every American to join me in this cause.

Uniting to fight the common foes we face:

Anger, resentment, hatred.

Extremism, lawlessness, violence.

Disease, joblessness, hopelessness.

With unity we can do great things. Important things.

We can right wrongs.

We can put people to work in good jobs.

We can teach our children in safe schools.

We can overcome this deadly virus.

We can reward work, rebuild the middle class, and make health care
secure for all.

We can deliver racial justice.

We can make America, once again, the leading force for good in the world.

I know speaking of unity can sound to some like a foolish fantasy.

I know the forces that divide us are deep and they are real.

But I also know they are not new.

Our history has been a constant struggle between the American ideal that we are all created equal and the harsh, ugly reality that racism, nativism, fear, and demonization have long torn us apart.

The battle is perennial.

Victory is never assured.

Through the Civil War, the Great Depression, World War, 9/11, through struggle, sacrifice, and setbacks, our “better angels” have always prevailed.

In each of these moments, enough of us came together to carry all of us forward.

And, we can do so now.

History, faith, and reason show the way, the way of unity.

We can see each other not as adversaries but as neighbors.

We can treat each other with dignity and respect.

We can join forces, stop the shouting, and lower the temperature.

For without unity, there is no peace, only bitterness and fury.

No progress, only exhausting outrage.

No nation, only a state of chaos.

This is our historic moment of crisis and challenge, and unity is the path forward.

And, we must meet this moment as the United States of America.

If we do that, I guarantee you, we will not fail.

We have never, ever, ever failed in America when we have acted together.

And so today, at this time and in this place, let us start afresh.

All of us.

Let us listen to one another.

Hear one another.
See one another.

Show respect to one another.

Politics need not be a raging fire destroying everything in its path.

Every disagreement doesn’t have to be a cause for total war.

And, we must reject a culture in which facts themselves are manipulated and even manufactured.

My fellow Americans, we have to be different than this.

America has to be better than this.

And, I believe America is better than this.

Just look around.

Here we stand, in the shadow of a Capitol dome that was completed amid the Civil War, when the Union itself hung in the balance.

Yet we endured and we prevailed.

Here we stand looking out to the great Mall where Dr. King spoke of his dream.

Here we stand, where 108 years ago at another inaugural, thousands of protestors tried to block brave women from marching for the right to vote.

Today, we mark the swearing-in of the first woman in American history elected to national office – Vice President Kamala Harris.

Don’t tell me things can’t change.

Here we stand across the Potomac from Arlington National Cemetery, where heroes who gave the last full measure of devotion rest in eternal peace.

And here we stand, just days after a riotous mob thought they could use violence to silence the will of the people, to stop the work of our democracy, and to drive us from this sacred ground.

That did not happen.

It will never happen.

Not today.

Not tomorrow.

Not ever.

To all those who supported our campaign I am humbled by the faith you have placed in us.

To all those who did not support us, let me say this: Hear me out as we move forward. Take a measure of me and my heart.

And if you still disagree, so be it.

That’s democracy. That’s America. The right to dissent peaceably, within the guardrails of our Republic, is perhaps our nation’s greatest strength.

Yet hear me clearly: Disagreement must not lead to disunion.

And I pledge this to you: I will be a President for all Americans.

I will fight as hard for those who did not support me as for those who did.

Many centuries ago, Saint Augustine, a saint of my church, wrote that a people was a multitude defined by the common objects of their love.

What are the common objects we love that define us as Americans?

I think I know.

Opportunity.

Security.

Liberty.

Dignity.

Respect.

Honor.

And, yes, the truth.

Recent weeks and months have taught us a painful lesson.

There is truth and there are lies.

Lies told for power and for profit.

And each of us has a duty and responsibility, as citizens, as Americans, and especially as leaders – leaders who have pledged to honor our Constitution and protect our nation — to defend the truth and to defeat the lies.

I understand that many Americans view the future with some fear and trepidation.

I understand they worry about their jobs, about taking care of their families, about what comes next.

I get it.

But the answer is not to turn inward, to retreat into competing factions, distrusting those who don’t look like you do, or worship the way you do, or don’t get their news from the same sources you do.

We must end this uncivil war that pits red against blue, rural versus urban, conservative versus liberal.

We can do this if we open our souls instead of hardening our hearts.

If we show a little tolerance and humility.

If we’re willing to stand in the other person’s shoes just for a moment.
Because here is the thing about life: There is no accounting for what fate will deal you.

There are some days when we need a hand.

There are other days when we’re called on to lend one.

That is how we must be with one another.

And, if we are this way, our country will be stronger, more prosperous, more ready for the future.

My fellow Americans, in the work ahead of us, we will need each other.

We will need all our strength to persevere through this dark winter.

We are entering what may well be the toughest and deadliest period of the virus.

We must set aside the politics and finally face this pandemic as one nation.

I promise you this: as the Bible says weeping may endure for a night but joy cometh in the morning.

We will get through this, together

The world is watching today.

So here is my message to those beyond our borders: America has been tested and we have come out stronger for it.

We will repair our alliances and engage with the world once again.

Not to meet yesterday’s challenges, but today’s and tomorrow’s.

We will lead not merely by the example of our power but by the power of our example.

We will be a strong and trusted partner for peace, progress, and security.

We have been through so much in this nation.

And, in my first act as President, I would like to ask you to join me in a moment of silent prayer to remember all those we lost this past year to the pandemic.

To those 400,000 fellow Americans – mothers and fathers, husbands and wives, sons and daughters, friends, neighbors, and co-workers.

We will honor them by becoming the people and nation we know we can and should be.

Let us say a silent prayer for those who lost their lives, for those they left behind, and for our country.

Amen.

This is a time of testing.

We face an attack on democracy and on truth.

A raging virus.

Growing inequity.

The sting of systemic racism.

A climate in crisis.

America’s role in the world.

Any one of these would be enough to challenge us in profound ways.

But the fact is we face them all at once, presenting this nation with the gravest of responsibilities.

Now we must step up.

All of us.

It is a time for boldness, for there is so much to do.

And, this is certain.

We will be judged, you and I, for how we resolve the cascading crises of our era.

Will we rise to the occasion?

Will we master this rare and difficult hour?

Will we meet our obligations and pass along a new and better world for our children?

I believe we must and I believe we will.

And when we do, we will write the next chapter in the American story.

It’s a story that might sound something like a song that means a lot to me.

It’s called “American Anthem” and there is one verse stands out for me:

“The work and prayers
of centuries have brought us to this day
What shall be our legacy?
What will our children say?…
Let me know in my heart
When my days are through
America
America
I gave my best to you.”

Let us add our own work and prayers to the unfolding story of our nation.

If we do this then when our days are through our children and our children’s children will say of us they gave their best.

They did their duty.

They healed a broken land.
My fellow Americans, I close today where I began, with a sacred oath.

Before God and all of you I give you my word.

I will always level with you.

I will defend the Constitution.

I will defend our democracy.

I will defend America.

I will give my all in your service thinking not of power, but of possibilities.

Not of personal interest, but of the public good.

And together, we shall write an American story of hope, not fear.

Of unity, not division.

Of light, not darkness.

An American story of decency and dignity.

Of love and of healing.

Of greatness and of goodness.

May this be the story that guides us.

The story that inspires us.

The story that tells ages yet to come that we answered the call of history.

We met the moment.

That democracy and hope, truth and justice, did not die on our watch but thrived.

That our America secured liberty at home and stood once again as a beacon to the world.

That is what we owe our forebearers, one another, and generations to follow.

So, with purpose and resolve we turn to the tasks of our time.

Sustained by faith.

Driven by conviction.

And, devoted to one another and to this country we love with all our hearts.

May God bless America and may God protect our troops.

Thank you, America.

這是美國的一天，這是民主的一天，是歷史和希望的一天，是更新與決心的一天。美國幾個世代經過熔爐的考驗之後，如今再次遭到試煉，而且已再次奮起應付挑戰。今天，我們慶祝的不是一位候選人的勝利，而是一個奮鬥目標的勝利，是為民主的奮鬥。人民的意志被聽見了，人民的意志得到了關注。

我們再次學到，民主是珍貴的，民主是脆弱的，而在此刻，朋友們，民主已然勝利。短短幾天之前，還有暴力試圖撼動國會的根基，但今天我們齊聚這個莊嚴的所在，以一個在上帝之下不可分裂的國家，展開權力的和平轉移，一如我國200多年的傳統。

我們要用美國特有的方式，也就是不停歇、勇敢、樂觀的方式展望未來。放眼我們可以成為、也必須成為的國家。我謝謝今天蒞臨的兩黨前任總統，我衷心感謝，你們知道我國憲法的韌性，以及我們國家的力量。卡特總統（Jimmy Carter）也是，我昨晚與他通了電話，但他不克前來。我們為他畢生的奉獻向他致敬。

我剛才跟這幾位愛國者一樣鄭重宣誓，一篇最初由華盛頓宣讀的誓詞。然而，美國故事靠的不是我們任何一個人，或一部分人，而是我們全體。它靠的是「我們人民」，在尋求一個更好的合眾國的人民。這是個偉大的國家，我們是一群良善的人。

經歷過去幾個世紀的風雨和衝突、和平與戰爭，我們走過很長一段路，但前方還有很長一段路要走。我們將快速緊急前行，因為在這個危險與機會的冬天，我們有很多事要做。有很多需要修補、需要恢復、需要癒合。有許多需要建設，也可以有很多收穫。

在我國歷史上，很少人或很少時刻面臨著比我們目前更大的挑戰或困難。百年一見、無聲無息蔓延整個國家的病毒，在一年之內奪走的人命，跟美國在第二次世界大戰犧牲的總人數一樣多。數百萬工作機會流失，成千上萬企業關門。

400年來的種族正義的呼聲感動著我們，全民同享公義的夢想將不再拖後。地球生存的呼聲再急迫不過，也再清楚不過。如今政治極端主義、白人至上主義和本土恐怖主義的興起，讓我們有必要起來面對並將它們擊倒。

克服這些挑戰、恢復美國靈魂和鞏固未來需要的不只是話語，而是民主當中最難以捉摸的部分，那就是團結一心，團結一心。

另一個一月天，在1863年開年之時，林肯總統簽署解放奴隸宣言。讓我引述他在下筆時所說的話：「如果我留名青史，將會是因為這份宣言，以及我投注其中的全心全意。」

今天，同樣在一月裡，我全心全意投注於此：團結全體國人，團結整個國家。我請求所有美國人加入，和我一起努力，團結對抗我們共同的敵人：怨氣、不滿、仇恨、極端主義、目無法紀的行為、暴力、疾病、失業和無助。

團結一心，我們能夠成就偉大事業、重要的事情。我們可以糾正錯誤，可以讓民眾找到好的工作，可以在安全的校園教導孩子，可以克服這個致命的病毒。我們可以讓工作獲得報酬，重建中產階級，可以提供全民健保，可以兌現種族正義，讓美國再次成為世界主要的良善力量。

我明白，這個時候談論團結聽起來像愚昧的天方夜譚，我知道分裂我們的力量又深又真切，但我也知道這些力量不是現在才出現。美國向來在人人平等這個理想，和國家長期被種族主義、本土主義、恐懼和妖魔化分化的醜陋現實之間掙扎。這個征戰從未止息，勝利並無保證。

從南北戰爭、大蕭條、世界大戰到911恐攻，儘管歷經奮鬥、犧牲和挫折，良善的天使向來都會勝利。每當遇到這種時刻，我們都會有足夠的人團結一心，讓全國一起向前，我們現在也可以這麼做。

歷史、信仰和理性指向一條明路，一條團結之路。我們可以不把彼此當成敵人，而是鄰居。我們可以尊嚴和尊重彼此相待，可以同心協力，停止叫囂，讓溫度冷卻。因為沒有團結就沒有和平，只會留下苦毒與憤怒；不會有進步，只會有讓人厭倦的離譜言行；不會有國家，只會有混亂狀態。

這是我們危機和挑戰的歷史性一刻，而團結是前進的道路，我們必須以合眾國的姿態來面對這一刻，若能做到，我向諸位保證我們不會失敗。當我們團結起來，我們從來就不曾失敗，因此在這一天，在此時此刻，就在這裡，讓我們重新來過，全體一起來。讓我們開始再次彼此聆聽，讓對方說，相互探望，對彼表達尊重。

政治不必像這一團熊熊之火，燒毀一切，歧見不必成為全面戰爭的理由。我們必須摒棄操弄甚至捏造事實的文化，同胞們，我們不能這樣，美國必須不只是這個樣子，而且我相信美國不至淪落至此。

看看四周，我們站在國會大廈圓頂之下，這是南北戰爭時期完成的，當時美國的前途還在未定之天，但我們挺過來了，我們勝利了。我們現在站在此，看著偉大的國家廣場，金恩博士（Martin Luther King Jr.）曾對廣場上的群眾訴說他的夢想。也是在這裡，108年前的另一場就職典禮，數以千計的抗議人士試圖阻撓一群勇敢的婦女遊行爭取投票權。

今天我們見證副總統賀錦麗創造美國歷史，成為第一位擔任國家領導人的女性，別告訴我事情無法改變。

我們站在這裡，隔著波多馬克河（Potomac River）遠眺阿靈頓國家公墓（Arlington National Cemetery），也就是為國捐軀的英雄長眠之地。我們站在這裡，不過幾天前，暴動的群眾以為他們可用暴力箝制民眾的意志，阻撓民主運作，把我們驅逐出這塊聖地。但事情未如他們所願，今天不會，明天也不會，永遠都不會。

每位支持我們參選的民眾，我因你們給予我們的信心感到謙卑。對於沒有支持我們的人，讓我對你們說：未來請聽我說的話，評量我和我的心。如果你們還是不同意，也罷。這就是民主。這就是美國。以平和的方式在我們國家的規範之內表達異議的權利，可能是我國最大的優勢。

但請聽清楚：不同意見絕對不能變成不團結。而且我向各位保證，我要當全體國人的總統。不論你支持我或不支持我，我都將同樣為你們而努力。

好幾個世紀之前，我所屬教會的聖者聖奧古斯丁（Saint Augustine）曾經寫道，人民是個群體，由他們共同喜愛的東西所定義。身為美國人，我們共同喜愛而且能定義我們的東西是什麼？我想我們都知道：機會、安定、自由、尊嚴、尊重、榮譽，是的，還有真相。

最近的幾個星期、幾個月給了我們痛苦的教訓：有真相，也有謊言，為了權力和利益而說的謊言。我們每個人做為公民，做為美國人，特別是身為領導者的人，曾經承諾要遵守憲法、保護我們的國家的領導者，有職責、有責任要捍衛真相、打敗謊言。

我瞭解有許多同胞以害怕、惶恐的心情看待未來。我瞭解他們擔心工作問題。我瞭解他們像我父親那樣，夜裡躺在床上盯著天花板，想著得要有醫療保險、有貸款要付、想著他們的家庭，想著接下來會如何。我跟各位保證，我瞭解。但答案不是退縮，不是進入到彼此競爭的派系，不信任看起來跟你不一樣的人，跟你有不同信仰的人，或者新聞來源不同於你的人。

我們必須結束這場「無禮的戰爭」，它讓紅藍對立、鄉村與都市的民眾對立、保守派與自由派對立。我們可以做到，如果我們敞開心胸，而不是讓我們的心變硬，如果我們展現一些包容和謙虛，如果我們願意為別人設想，就像我母親說的：只要一下子就好，為別人設想。

因為人生就是這樣，你無法預知命運。有些時候，你會需要別人伸出援手，還有些時候，人家會請你伸出援手。就是要這樣，這就是我們為彼此做的事。如果我們這麼做，我們的國家就會更強大、更繁榮，更能為未來做好準備，而且我們還是可以有不同意見。

同胞們，我們在推動未來的工作時，會需要彼此。我們要集舉國之力，才能度過這個黑暗的冬天。我們可能在進入疫情最嚴重、最致命的階段。我們必須把政治擺在一邊，要終於能夠舉國對抗這個大流行，用舉國之力。我向各位保證，就如聖經所說：「一宿雖有哭泣，早晨便必歡呼。」我們將可一起度過，一起！

各位，我跟我在參眾兩院的同事們都瞭解，世人正在觀看，他們今天在看著我們，因此這是我要對國外傳達的訊息：美國受到試煉，而我們因此更為茁壯。我們將修補我們與盟國的關係，再次與世界往來，不是為了面對昨天的挑戰，而是今天和明天的挑戰。我們將不是藉著我們力量的典範來領導，而是憑藉我們典範的力量。我們將會是和平、進步與安定堅強而且可信賴的夥伴。

各位都知道，我們國家經歷了許多事情。我做為總統要做的第一件事，是要請你們跟我一起，為過去一年因疫情喪生的人們默禱，紀念那40萬個同胞，母親、父親、丈夫、妻子、兒子、女兒、朋友、鄰居和同事們。我們要成為我們自知可以成為、而且應該成為的人民和國家，以此榮耀他們。因此我請大家，一起為離世和失去親友的人們，還有我們的國家默禱，……阿們。

各位，這是試煉的時刻。我們面對對民主與真相的攻擊、正在肆虐的病毒、嚴重的不公、系統性的種族歧視、陷入危機的氣候，還有美國在全球的角色問題。其中任何一點都足以對我們構成嚴重的挑戰。但事實是，我們在同時面對這一切，這讓美國挑起我們最重大的責任之一。我們將受到試煉，我們能迎接挑戰嗎？這是大膽的時候，因為有好多事情要做。

而我向各位保證，這點是肯定的：你我將被評判，標準是我們如何解決這個時代一一發生的危機。我們將迎接挑戰。我們能否戰勝這個罕見而艱難的時刻？我們能否履行我們的義務，把一個新的、更好的世界傳給我們的下一代？我相信我們必須那麼做，而且我相信你們也這麼認為。我相信我們會，而且當我們做到，我們將寫下美國歷史偉大的新章節。美國的故事。

這個故事可能像一首對我來說深具意義的歌曲，它叫「美國頌」（American Anthem），它有一段歌詞至少對我來說很特別，它是這樣說的：「數百年的努力與祈禱讓我們來到今天，我們有什麼能傳承下去？我們的子孫會怎麼說？當我的日子結束，讓我內心知曉，美國，美國，我已為你付出最大努力。」

讓我們把我們自己的努力和祈禱，加到我們偉大的國家仍在發展的故事之中。如果我們做到，那麼當我們的日子結束，我們的子孫和他們的子孫會說：「他們付出了最大的努力，他們盡了他們的責任，他們修補了破碎的國家。」

同胞們，我的結語要跟開頭一樣，有個神聖的誓言。在上帝和各位面前，我向你們保證。我將始終開誠布公，我將捍衛憲法，我將捍衛我們的民主。我將捍衛美國，全心全力奉獻為你們服務，心中想的不是權力，而是可能性，不是私利，而是公眾的利益。我們將一起寫下美國希望的故事，而非恐懼的故事，是團結而非分歧，是光明而非黑暗。是禮貌與尊嚴、愛與療癒、偉大與善良的故事。

希望這是引導我們的故事、啟發我們的故事，是能告訴未來的世世代代我們回應歷史的召喚並且回應了時代挑戰的故事。民主與希望、真相與公義沒有在我們的時代衰亡，而是生生不息，美國固守了國內的自由，並且再次成為世界的明燈。這是我們對先人、對彼此和對未來世世代代的責任。

因此，我們要有目標、有決心，把注意力轉向這個時代的任務，靠信心來維持，靠信念來驅使，為彼此和我們全心熱愛的國家而奉獻。願上帝保佑美國，保守我們的三軍。謝謝美國！

這是一首和 國立臺灣史前文化博物館 National Museum of Prehistory 及 蓋亞文化 出版的台灣史前奇幻冒險小說「風暴之子」擦出火花的歌曲－〈古老森林的後裔 Grandsons of Ancient Forest〉。
-
歌曲以風暴之子的故事情節為發想，用聲音和旋律來打造人們對於這個失落卻無比珍貴的臺灣古文明一卑南文化的情感連結。在三千多年前的部落裡，人們追隨著古老的信仰，彼此相依的在這塊土地上生活著，而這片土地，我們稱呼為「台灣」，你是否也曾聆聽過這片山林，山林裡長眠於此的人們，正在與我們訴說這片土地的美麗故事，而這一切從來就不該被遺忘。

【歌曲介紹】

Vali，是風的古語，也曾是一名少年與一頭雲豹的名字。狂風暴雨中，一條獨木舟劇烈起伏，卻始終不曾沉沒。船上什麼都沒有，只有一個昏迷的小孩—瓦利。這個在風暴中存活的奇蹟男孩，在踏上海境的土地後，將以風為名，在異族部落裡蛻變重生，開啟屬於他的遠古冒險長征......。
-
歌曲內少年歌唱著一段部落長老們流傳的古老旋律，旋律裡唱述著：
Dee ie enssaa dnaaya（半月下的太陽之子）
Ii issee ento ui（靈魂永駐幻化成樹）
Kii inssee essaa libaya（聽，森林的細語唏囌）
io si kenna（唱述大地的美麗故事）
-
而歌曲開端則訴說：
Mriya dehita
iude taka emu
Ameyín sáiya
（所有神話的背後都源於一段真實故事）
-
主要演奏樂器為Lira de la estela de Luna，是由伊比利半島Luna（月亮）小鎮出土的一座石碑上圖案所復刻出的樂器，中文譯為月亮里拉琴（或稱塔特西里拉琴），該石碑目前存放於西班牙當地Zaragoza博物館，年代距今三千年左右，恰好與卑南文化時期有所重疊。歌曲中點綴著多種原始的傳統樂器，像是以羊趾甲製作而成的 Chajchas、早期以木頭製成的笛子 Quena、會發出下雨聲音的Palo de Lluvia 求雨棒、以種子製成的 Güiro de calabaza seca、跳舞專用的腳鈴 Pad Ghungroo、羊皮手鼓Frame Drum等等，期許用更開闊的聲響，編織出人們對於卑南文化的無限想像。

Vali is Taiwan’s first fantasy-adventure novel set in prehistoric times (more precisely, about 3,000 years ago). It is based on the Peinan culture.
-
• Plot: The word “vali” means “wind” in an ancient language of Taiwan, and it is also the name of the boy and clouded leopard in the story. During a fierce storm, a canoe is violently tossed about on the water, staying afloat in spite of the tempest. All that is in the canoe is an unconscious boy, whose survival is a miracle and who will later be named after the wind—“Vali.” He ends up living with a tribe that is not his own, transforming, experiencing rebirth, and embarking on a long adventure…
-
• About the song: The song, inspired by the plot of Vali, creates a musical and emotional link between listeners and a lost yet incomparably precious ancient civilization of Taiwan—the Peinan culture. Over 3,000 years ago, the inhabitants of a settlement on this island lived and depended on one another while following their religious beliefs. We call this island “Taiwan.” Have you ever listened carefully to its mountain forests and the people who sleep eternally in them? They are telling us the beautiful stories of Taiwan, stories that never should have been forgotten.
-
In the song, the boy sings an ancient melody passed down by the village elders, which goes:
Dee ie enssaa dnaaya (Children of the sun, beneath a half moon.)
Ii issee ento ui (Their spirits live eternally in the form of trees.)
Kii inssee essaa libaya (Hear the whispers of the forest,)
io si kenna (singing the beautiful stories of this land.)
-
The beginning of the song goes:
Mriya dehita
iude taka emu
Ameyín sáiya
(All myths are based on true stories.)
-
The main instrument is Lira de la estela de Luna(Lyre of Luna). It is the recreation of one of the oldest string instruments of the Iberian Peninsula. It was created based on an engraving representing a string instrument similar to an ancient Mediterranean lyre. This engraving is on an anthropomorphic funeral stele dating back three thousand years that was found in the town of Luna (Zaragoza) in 1975. The characteristics of the engraving are very similar to the style of the Tartessian period (10 to 6 B.C.).
Besides, this song is dotted with a variety of original traditional musical instruments, like Chajchas, Quena, Palo de Lluvia, Güiro de calabaza seca, Pad Ghungroo, Frame Drum, etc.

前兩集好像有點沈重，這集來聊點輕鬆的吧！想跟大家聊聊感情觀！（我的新書也有提到初戀的故事哈哈哈哈，請大家去看書喔！）

Lala Land是我很愛的電影，因為結局女主角選擇了自己的理想，離開了男主角，是不是因為不夠愛？身為鋼鐵直女的我，對於愛情其實也是很細膩的好嗎！不知道大家是「一見鍾情」派，還是「日久生情」派？我是屬於「二見鍾情」的人，我覺得愛情與麵包是可以兼顧的，首先要看妳的心理狀態，以及有沒有遇到適合的對象而已。

想要擁有一段平等的愛情，必須要擁有自己的麵包，有能力愛自己，才有能力去愛人！如果還沒有愛情，那就先為了自己的麵包好好努力吧，為了自己而努力生活，那樣子的你是最美的，也相信一定有人會被你吸引的喔！我也要好好努力啦！

節目的最後，送給大家《Always The Same》，希望大家都能擁有一段很棒的愛情！

✨
Let’s talk about feelings versus thoughts. Are you a feelings-based person just like me? Do you believe in love at first sight?

Why do we always fall for the wrong person? It never gets old - choosing between following your heart or your mind. This dilemma will always come back when we neglect the most important person - ourselves.

**Song at the end “Always the Same” (unreleased demo of Ariel’s)

日文歌詞 / Japanese Lyrics :
踏み込んだ shadow land　楽園なんてない
錆びる old remedies　確信なんてない

それでも go up the river
しがみつくだけの ladder
涙にさえ灯る火が　ひとつの sign　ひとつの light

明けない夜も歌が途切れないように
当てなく迷う夢がもつれないように
すれ違った足跡たち　振り返らぬように
踏み外したあなたでさえ手離さないように

I'm the prover, I am the prover
終らない世界にだって立ち向かうように
I'm the prover　命の声が
また響きだすころに　あなたと I'll be there
沈まずに行く舟を

降り出した iron rain　ゼロにするための pray
同じ孤独を見てた　あなたならわかるでしょう

それでも go up the river
いつかまた出逢えるなら
この愛に灯る火が　ひとつの sign　ひとつの light

明けない夜も歌が途切れないように
当てなく迷う夢がもつれないように
すれ違った足跡たち　振り返らぬように
踏み外したあなたでさえ手離さないように

If you can't find your way (I won't give up on you)
Everything is not lost ('Cause I'm standing with you)
二度と戻れはしない世界だとして
I'm here for you (I'm here for you)
I'll live for you

I'm the prover, I am the prover
終らない世界にだって立ち向かうように
I am the prover　命の声が
また響きだすころに　あなたと I'll be there
沈まずに行く舟を
どこまでも行く舟を

中文歌詞 / Chinese Lyrics :
舉足涉入夢幻的虛幻之地，卻不存在理想鄉般的樂園
也再也無法確信，過往早已鏽蝕褪色的種種補救

即使如此，面對困難與逆境仍力爭上游
哪怕只能緊抓住唯一的階梯朝上前行
照亮雙眸淚水的燈火——它是僅此唯一的指引、唯一照亮前方黯淡的光芒

祈願在白晝不會到臨的夜晚，也不會停下歌聲持續謳歌
期盼在徬徨迷惘、隨波沉浮的夢中也不再受困遲疑
哪怕是一時足跡交錯擦肩，也不再回首懊悔並執著往昔
倘若你一旦失足落下，我也不會放開早已相繫的手

我是見證者，見證你曾存在的證明
但願在沒有終點的世界我也能起身對抗、勇敢面對
我是尋求者，尋覓曾幾何時響徹的生命之聲
當其再度響徹之時，我將伴你同行
共乘永不沉覆的舟楫

傾盆降下鐵鏽般無情的剛健大雨，祈願能夠再度回到最初的過往
倘若是一同見證何謂孤獨的你，一定能夠理解吧

即使如此，面對困難與逆境仍力爭上游
要是有日能夠再度和你相遇
彼此的愛所萌生的燈火——便是僅此唯一的指引、唯一照亮前方黯淡的光芒

祈願在白晝不會到臨的夜晚，也不會停下歌聲持續謳歌
期盼在徬徨迷惘、隨波沉浮的夢中也不再受困遲疑
哪怕是一時足跡交錯擦肩，也不再回首懊悔並執著往昔
倘若你一旦失足落下，我也不會放開早已相繫的手

倘若你早已自路途中迷失「我絕不會拋棄你獨自一人。」
你尚未失去一切「因為我正陪伴在你身邊。」
即便這世界早已面目全非，再也無法回到往昔純粹
我仍會陪在你身邊「我就在你身邊。」
「我會，為你活出生命的光彩。」

我是見證者，見證你曾存在的證明
但願在尚未結束的世界我也能起身對抗、勇敢面對
我是尋求者，尋覓曾幾何時響徹的生命之聲
當其再度響徹之時，我將伴你同行
共乘永不沉覆的舟楫
同駛永不停歇的舟楫

英文歌詞 / English Lyrics :
Stepped into the shadow land, there was no paradise
The rusty old remedies, I’m not sure what’s the right thing anymore

But still I go up the river
Just hold on to the ladder
Only the flame in your tear is the sign and the light

I’ll keep singing for you, even in the endless night
I promise I won't let your dreams die
There are traces of you here, but I just walk and don’t look back
If you slip into the darkness and lose belief, I’ll never leave you behind

I'm the prover, I am the prover
Face the world, never fear anything anymore
I’m the prover, when the voice of life rings again
Let’s start from zero together (I’ll be there)
With the boat that never sinks

Iron rain just began falling from the dark sky
And I pray this is the new beginning
You know what I mean, because we were lonely together
But still I go up the river
If we can meet again someday
Only the flame in my love is
is the sign and the light

I’ll keep singing for you, even in the endless night
I promise I won't let your dreams die
There are traces of you here, but I just walk and don’t look back
If you slip into the darkness and lose belief, I’ll never leave you behind

If you can't find your way (I won't give up on you)
Everything is not lost ('Cause I'm standing with you)
Even though I can never go back with you
I'm here for you (I'm here for you)
I'll live for you

I'm the prover, I am the prover
Face my fate, never fear anything anymore
I’m the prover, when the voice of life rings again
Let’s start from zero together (I’ll be there)
With the boat that never sinks
I will go where you go
