Hope?


我每次看到世界各地發生的災難都感到難過,最近在日本發生的大地震給我的感覺特別強烈。有可能是因為我兩個月前就在東京,當然也是因為我還沒聯絡到我去年認識的仙台同學。
每次看這樣的新聞我會問“為什麼這個世界這麼可怕?”這個問題。為什麼收害的人完全不應得這樣的害?

我能做什麼幫忙呢?好像問題都太大了。

Well, on one hand, 我真的很期待有一天上帝會把整個世界更新,從那時候就沒有痛沒病沒哭沒死。
但是那時候還不是現在,現在怎麼辦?
或許我們能愛就是我們能做的事。我昨天也看了另外一個新聞一樣讓我很驚訝,日本一年的自殺率超過兩萬兩千人。

在我們自己的國家,在我們自己的旁邊都一定會有需要被愛的人。雖然我們的世界還是很可怕但是上帝給我們能力用各種方式去愛真的是有大影響力的潛力。

So while I pray for Japan's earthquake and tsunami victims and especially for my classmate 櫻井 I also hope that God will help me to extend more love to the people around me, it's not easy in the normalness of everyday life, but I do believe that love has a power, the only power, that can overcome the hurt of this world.

Heart




The heart, what is it?

Is it all in our head?
Or is there an intangible part somewhere deep inside us?

I've read that God put eternity in the hearts of all people,
Is that why the heart doesn't seem to grow old? Why it's not affected by time in the same way that the body is?

So what is the heart? Where is it?
It could be the most precious thing we have, so how do you take good care of a heart?

Is the heart where love comes from?
Is that part of what makes love so powerful, that it has an eternal quality too?

Why is it that when we're loved time seems to slow?

Was it the love of God given in the act of creating each one of us that leaves an eternal seed deep within, a seed we call the heart?
A seed that seems to grow outside the boundary of time?

If you've heard that love is forever, maybe that's because the heart is too.

這次沒辦法翻成中文,對不起!這是我第一次分享我寫的詩,希望有一天可以用中文寫但是要先多學!
