Do not go gentle into that good night 不要温驯地走入那良夜

Do not go gentle into that good night
by Dylan Thomas

  
        Do not go gentle into that good night,

  Old age should burn and rave at close of day;

  Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
  Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
  Because their words had forked no lightning they
  Do not go gentle into that good night.
  Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
  Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
  Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
  Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
  And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
  Do not go gentle into that good night.
  Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
  Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
  Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
  And you, my father, there on the sad height,
  Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
  Do not go gentle into that good night.
  Rage, rage against the dying of the light.


最近友人介绍一部名《穿越星空Interstellar》科幻电影,向来对科幻影片一知半解的我因他的观后感而一探究竟,3小时的影片,虽然好些剧情仍丈二和尚摸不清脑袋,但全篇情节令人砰然震撼,述说着爱与勇气,探索未知的倔强。

片中最让我回旋的是这首Dylan Thomas早年英逝的威尔士诗人所著《Do not go gentle into that good night不要温驯地走入那良夜》,片中老教授为出征未知星空勇士而诵。更喜欢这段:

Though wise men at their end know dark is right
虽然智者临终时懂得黑暗有理,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
但因为他们的话没法迸发出闪电,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
尽管如此,也不要温驯地走入那良夜


早已知晓结局,却仍旧不余遗力,智者都是倔强的,对于人类和人性,智者明白,却不屈服,他仍旧咆哮着对抗命运,直到生命最后一刻。这人与人性的爱与勇气,是咆哮的抗争,不屈不服。

Do not go gentle into that good night.
尽管如此,也不要温驯地走入那良夜

发芽的菜豆


自离开了精彩我生命的大学生涯,也随之冷落了这记载我的精彩的文字格,离开很强大的害人精身份,我步入了超级菜鸟的菜豆生涯。黑人精,害人精,恢复本名,回当Cikgu Chin,Miss Chin,陈老师。

坚信“一切的安排就是最好的安排”的我,被老天爷眷顾,迁派到一所很好的学校,家乡的汝来国民华小,离家半小时车程,很好的校长老师同事,虽然学生们是堆联合国像蜗牛般蠕动,但教学生涯过的很踏实。告别了漂泊打仗的日子,我让生活过的很惬意,友人说我过得很老人家,得空看看书,跑跑步,爬爬山,种种瓜瓜果果花花,悠哉闲哉,采菊东篱下。

前些日子与老友们相互道起现在的工作状况,我告诉他们学校老师们描述我是个很文静的女孩,他们一听马上喷饭大笑,怎说他们也无法想象“文静”一词与我画上等号。我说我不是叱咤的害人精很久了,正努力学当个文静的菜鸟,所以当菜鸟也该有个菜鸟样,少说话,多做事。我,努力地适应这大环境,努力地为自己转换模式,

回顾2014年的部落帖子,零丁的两个帖子,2014,没有记载我生命的文字,因为这一年,我过的很随性,给自己一年的时间乱晃,给自己一年的时间放空看社会看世界。我知道未来路很长,要是总老抱着以往的拼劲,很容易让自己喘息不来。我知道,这年是一个驿站,每阶段的达标后,不该像莽撞的斗牛,而该是给自己一段转换模式。

2015到来,这年,为自己拟了幅蓝图,期待整装待发的自己,为自己觉醒而重启的人生谱上草图。生命就是不停地为自己拟谱奏乐,我希望我的生命的交曲相奏而起,淡雅且阔达。
