奥运圣火24日抵达堪培拉。堪培拉龙舟协会早就发出通知让各俱乐部龙舟手参加当天的水上表演活动。老公的名字也在当日的名单之上。其实去看看火炬接力凑凑热闹并不是什么大事儿,但最近圣火一路受阻,真是想想都让人郁闷。堪培拉本来就不大,又不象澳洲其它大城市一样有很多中国人和中国学生,所以我们一直担心到时候情况不会太乐观,但也没有想着要特别地做些什么。 我十几岁的时候,我爸跟我说过一句我一辈子都可以受用的至理名言,那就是“不要替别人火中取栗”。这句话基本上奠定了我以后的政治人生观。这种人生观后来也影响到我为人处世的基本态度,所以我这个人不喜欢介入任何层面的人际斗争,也特别谨慎尽量避免自己成为别人利用的政治工具。最近办公室里有个同事试探我对藏独的看法,我就不想说太多。历史的事情需要知识才能去判断,没有知识就没有发言权。我西藏没去过,历史也没研究过,所以我觉得说什么都不太合适。 不过我举了一个简单的例子——假如你妈正忙着宴请重要客人来访,你姐非这时候跳出来跟你妈斗争理论,你觉得这时机合适吗?再说,分家和家庭内部人与人之间怎么相处是两码事。奥运圣火象征的是体育精神,它不是你中国一家的圣 火,而是属于世界每个人的。非得去劫持那个穿越世界的火炬来折腾中国有意思吗?有意义吗?我真不明白:这些人好像是脑子进水了,好像只要和中国政府沾边儿的事情去反对一下,闹腾一下就觉得自己的举动很聪明。我最看不得的就是带着政治冲动表情的脸色,憎恨与仇视的突然大发作从来都不是解决问题的正确途径,有什么时候这样的发作成功过过? 不过话说回来了,人可以不采取政治行动,保持言行举止上的中立态度,但是人是不能完全做到没有政治倾向和不抱有任何政治观点的。你可以不闻不问,但事情来了的时候,你却不可以说我就是不要去想。不用脑子的人,是基本上没有什么灵魂可言的。所以昨晚我老公有个 UNSW的同学打电话,说要从悉尼赶过来保护圣火并支持中国政府。我就决定:24号请假一天去陪朋友们去看奥运圣火!
Almost this time of every year, I was impresed with this city’s vibrant autumn colours and couldn’t help taking photos or writing some posts. I was under an impression of that I am a person who loves autumn and admires its beauty from mother natural’s stunning chang-overs during a short period of time. Autumn is [...]
I thought I don’t need Xmas as an excuse to do any shopping, but after spending two weekends at Woden Shopping Mall and still looking forward to the next visit, I guess I no longer know what I am doing In the past one month, I have bought two pairs of flip-flop slipper, one pair [...]
This week’s on call job hasn’t been easy. I almost got phone calls every day (lucky that I didn’t get them after 10pm or in the middle of my sleep, otherwise I just don’t know how I would have managed it). There have always been some crisis situations. Dementia mother wandered around and tried to [...]
The polling place that we had been and voted in Queanbeyan this afternoon We have witnessed the history, the history that our votes count, the history that the government can be changed overnight, and the history that the people’s call matters. I have to admit that this has been the best political experience in my [...]
