Shoeless & Clueless
August 26, 2010Empathy is the ability to put yourself into another person’s shoes. A lack of empathy is to render the other person shoeless, & yourself, clueless.

in our daily lives, we hear many voices, we see many faces. listen only to the voices that matter, remember the familiar faces. do we want our voice to be drowned out by all the other voices? do we want our face to be lost in the faceless crowd? in a sea of voices, where’s your voice? in [...]
“not with the eyes, but with the mind…” — Shakespeare, William. A Midsummer Night’s Dream. What you see is what you see; what you think about is the difference.
what do you believe in? what defines you? what’s your calling? what do you stand for? stand up for them. & stand firm. you have to. that’s the difference.
“Maybe, in the end, even the lies we tell define us. And better, some of them, than our most earnest attempts at the truth.” — Malouf, David. Johnno. do we really want the lies we tell to define us? perhaps, the mission i was hoping to embark on was a mission beyond a hapless individual, [...]

“每一双挑剔的眼光都带着他的人生历练与要求。。。 不要带有情绪。 抛开无谓的纷争, 客观中立。” 我也想这样。 好， 就这样吧。
今天我遇到坏人了。 我还记得 红星大奖那晚我说：“乌龟赛跑没有兔子， 只有乌龟。”他说我：“目中无人”，就不让我说话了。我的意思是自己是对手，做好本分，不把别人视为对手。 今天，我说我的新角色是个“自闭儿，怪胎，但有点小天才”。他说他觉得我很像我的角色。我想回答说， 选我演这个角色，我当然还蛮像这个人物的， 我也觉得他很像他演的坏人角色。我没说。 有几个问题我回答：“还好。”他说他最讨厌听到的就是“还好”。我想回答说: “我最喜欢说的就是‘还好’。”我没说。 他叫别人问他我帅不帅，然后故意说“还好”。我想叫别人问我他帅不帅，我会回答“帅”。我没这么做。 他骂我，说我不尊重他，随便和我的队友商量。我说我没有商量答案。 而且我和队友其实是可以沟通商量的，只要不是答案。 这只是一些例子。 我觉得做个前辈要有个前辈的样。 有才能不代表可以为所欲为。有才能， 似有文化修养， 没人格， 可悲。 要别人尊重你，首先要尊重别人。不尊重别人，其实也就是不尊重自己。 我会继续大哥前大哥后地叫他， 但也就是那样。 今天我又遇到这个坏人了。

“I can see it coming. It’s not going to be a favourable outcome.” “But I have a feeling you’re going to do it anyway, no matter the outcome.” “Yes, you’re right, I’ll do it anyway.” “No matter the outcome.” “And maybe, just maybe, it might be a favourable outcome,” more in hope. You know I’m [...]
“为什么不拿多一点汁？” 他们俩异口同声地回答： “拿来喝啊？” “你们可以不要讲一样的话吗？” 忍不住摇头。 他们有时会起口角， 但是三两天后又好了。 都三十多年的老夫老妻了，也难怪。 这就是我爸爸妈妈。 你说好笑不好笑？=）
