"MAYBE IT'S TIME TO REST ON OUR LAURELS."
--
Pandemic has brought up a lot of things I need to heal through, and this is one of them: the idea of the "perpetual achievement". Sound familiar?
We glooorify it. What you did today is good, yeah - but what about what you'll do TOMORROW? You'd better be going higher, stronger, faster - never stop, don't you dare. Post the next ig picture. Generate tomorrow's tiktok content. Hope for likes. Touched the sky? Blow a hole through the atmosphere and torpedo straight on to the next burning star. The you from yesterday? We don't know her. We're better. Upgraded. V 2.0.
I've been living my life like this for years now, but the past 2 years have forced us all to BE slowed down and re-evaluate.
Don't get me wrong. Ambition & achievement are wonderful. (There are certainly many more things I want to achieve, and much coming up that I'm going to be sharing with you guys. Never stop dreaming.) But dreaming becomes a problem when it turns living into a nightmare, because you can't stop trying to put distance between yourself and yourself. Stop being the shadow you are continually trying to win. It's EXHAUSTING. Aren't you exhausted? I am.
So maybe the truth is this: that we were put on this earth to do ONE good thing with our lives. ONE properly good thing.
And maybe that's winning a great Waterloo style battle, or achieving a certain dream. Maybe it's finishing one great performance. One great thesis. A beautiful painting. An espresso magnum opus.
And then - we let that be enough. And we rest on our laurels. "Greatness" does not have to be continually proven. Likes are transient, clout & remembrance fade. Do what you do because you love it, and it is good, and it fulfils you. If when your day comes to an end you can say "I did this one thing to the best of my ability and it was good" - that is enough, hero. Be at peace. The bards will sing of that one deed. The song will be equally wonderful without infinite stanzas.
So rest on your laurels, goddesses. You've earned it.

.
每週五, 下午16:30~17:30
隔週六, 早上10:30~12:00 or 19:00~20:30
.
上週六的課, 講了幾個令人很🔥 的新聞....年年發生、越來越嚴重的希臘、土耳其的野火, 以及加州的Dixie fire... 有時候想一想, 每次講國際新聞好像都是在講災難...問了孩子們, 有沒有什麼比較開心的事情可以分享呢?好像也沒有....😥 😥
.
這週伴隨著野火的新聞, 我介紹了一本繪本 #MyHouseIsOnFire, 非常合乎主題的繪本... 書中的這位主人翁 - Greta Thunberg, 一位來自瑞典的女孩, 讓全世界都聽到她的怒吼 How dare you?! (想知道關於桑伯格, 可以參考Lara的第一支影片:#FridayForFuture https://youtu.be/6ukaZzkTPW0)
.
很喜歡這一句話:
" I don't want you to be hopeful. I want you to panic. I want you to feel the fear I feel every day, and then I want you to act."
『 我不要你們(大人們)抱有希望, 我要你們感到恐慌!
我要你們感受到我每天的恐懼, 我要你們動起來!』
.
當我們每天在“愛小孩”, 為他們的“未來”努力打拼賺錢的當下, 卻忘了注意, 再這樣下去, 他們有“未來”嗎.....這是這位瑞典女孩給我們這些大人們的省思。這幾年來桑伯格也確實遭到許多的質疑, 怎麼一個雅斯伯格症的女孩能發表演說?怎麼說要節能減碳的人卻搭船渡洋, 過程產出更多的碳排量; 無論如何, 至少這是一個很大的提醒~
.
#極端氣候 這個話題太大、太重要, 不只是因為處於溫帶的歐洲開始有超過40度的高溫、或是餓扁的🐻❄️一直游不到岸, 或是前陣子暴雨的將德國、比利時小鎮淹沒, 以及日本的土石流.... 更是我們在這塊土地上每一日每一夜的真實。因為極端氣候, 有人失去家園、非洲、中東國家開始爭奪水源、本來就不平靜的世界, 除了人禍外, 更多的天災, 再導致更多的人禍......
.
有趣的小插曲, 當我們在看這本繪本的書名時, 一個孩子問:
『老師, 這個fire是指哪一種fire?』
當下, 我想到的是:“不是你被fired(炒魷魚)的fire喔~”
但是孩子想到的是:
『 是有子彈、打仗的fire嗎.....? 』
確實, 對於許多國家的孩子們來說, 也許這個fire, 真的就是槍林彈雨的fire.... 在寫此文章的同時, #阿富汗 已經成了塔利班的囊中物了....
又會有多少FIRE不斷燃燒呢.......
.
Lara之前在 #生活中培養國際觀 的講座中有提到, 日本的管理學大師大前研一給『國際觀』下的定義是:
.
#知道世界發生什麼事情, 並且對這些事情有提出自己觀點的能力。
要能提出觀點, 不是在高中或是大學畢業後一夜之間就能提出觀點的。需要從『觀察』、『認識』、『瞭解』、『思考』、『表達』, 一點一滴累積而來的。#提出觀點的能力就從現在開始!

Do you know what STINKY TOFU is? If you have been to Hong Kong and Taiwan night markets, you will know what this is. I have been craving for these tofu. My neighbour bought me some from the SS2 shop, I have tried and found them not smelly enough and just more herbal. I think they are more Taiwanese style. So I told them, let me try to make my own Hong Kong style stinky type. So I went on doing some research on how we can make the fermentation. Guess what, I must say I am super happy and excited over the stinkiness in my house. Weird but true. I felt like I was in a Hong Kong night market! I gave myself a 7/10 mark. Hahaha.
HK Style Fermentation Ingredients (2.5 litres jar):
. 1 whole mustard green/spinach, cut
. 4 to 5 stocks of coriander/spring onions, cut
. 200 g or more old ginger, sliced
. 20 to 25 pcs or more fresh prawns for prawn heads
. 5 pieces of fermented bean curds, mashed. 1 cup rice wine
. 1 litre rice water (water from washing rice)
. 1 litre cooled down cooked water
. 1/2 cup of salt
* Mix all above into an air-tight glass jar & leave it in your storage for 2 weeks to 1 month. It can get very smelly!!
For Fried Stinky Tofu Ingredients :
. 20 pcs of small to medium size firm tofu (not the soft tofu)
. oil for frying
* Soak the tofu in fermented water overnight in a sealed container overnight in the refrigerator.
To serve (dig a whole in the middle of the tofu & add below ingredients) :
. Spicy sauce or
. Pickled cabbage or kimchi
. Cut coriander or spring onions
My only advice for you all is fry your tofu outside the house or with your hood on full blast! Otherwise you will end up having the night market store smell for 1.5 days like I had. I don't hate it, but everyone in the house was hiding inside their rooms!
I am glad I found the secret of making this. Hope I will improve this and make them even more smelly and yummier? Yes I will soak the tofu for more than a day. So what is next? I still have a huge jar of Taiwanese fermentation going on. I will be able to try it in 2 weeks. I am determined to let it ferment for a month. Will let u all know soon.
Yes they are stinky when u prepare them and fry them up. But they taste far better than they smell. It has many health benefits like helping the digestive system and treating cold symptoms. According to some studies, eating stinky tofu can also help prevent osteoporosis, lower the risk of prostate and breast cancer, and reduce cholesterol. Hmm, interesting. I love them no matter what!
Dare to try?

Ever had someone offering you a business opportunity?
Ever rejected someone because you are afraid you are gonna be in a scam!
What if this is legit? Have you ever thought to yourself about it?
If you're so afraid then stay stuck. But if you want change, take risks but do it wisely!
Here's my take on this because I was once a huge skeptic and the one who has given all these excuses to everyone who dare offer me an opportunity. Until I knew if I want change in my life, I have to step out of my comfort zone and be smart about it.
And now I have found the right company and right system to take me to where I want to be! If you want to give yourself this chance then drop me a message on either of my channels.❤️
But if you refuse to accept what I say and stay in your made-up beliefs then by all means, stay ☺️ Stay and Do nothing. But don't complain. Go eat ice cream. Stay stuck.
?????????????????
Be grateful for everything, because what you have, you will be given more. But if you have no gratitude, then what you have will also be taken away.

#penanghokkien #GoLiveMic #WirelessMic
GoLiveMic is a wireless mic suitable for beginner.
If you don't have few thousand.
You may consider to use this affordable mic.
It ables to record your voice even you are in few metres away.
Been using this until now.
Sometimes it might have interference noise if you are surrounded
with electronic items.
Signal problem maybe, not so sure yet.
So far so good.
Just check everytime you done one shoot, to make sure
there is no weird weird noise ^^

GoLiveMic是一款适合初学者(新手)的无线麦克风。
如果你没有几千块,
你可以考虑使用这款价格实惠的麦克风。
即使你在几米远的地方,
它也可以清楚记录你的声音。
我个人使用了一段时间的分享,
如果麦克风四周被包着,有时会造成干扰声。
如果你周围有电子物品,也会导致信号问题。
不过,目前为止,一切拍摄录音还是不错的。
你只需要在每次拍摄前都检查一下,
以确保不会造成奇怪的噪音^^
拍摄顺利!

#penanghokkien #FarmFresh
Tried Farm Fresh Mini Drinks
I recommend these flavour
Original Soy Milk, Chocolate, Cafe Latte and Mixed Fruits Yogurt.
Cafe Latte really surprised me because I don't fancy latte.
Do shake well before drink!!!

试喝了Farm Fresh迷你盒装饮料。
我大力推荐原味豆奶、巧克力、咖啡拿铁还有杂果乳酪。
其中咖啡拿铁最让我感到惊讶,因为我本身是不爱喝拿铁的。
记得!记得!喝之前先摇伴均匀~
你也可以选择买多罐,来包送到你的家。
