再会,英伦

It's time to say goodbye, England.
Had enough of your freezing cold.
Yet we promise
we'll be back sometime
to see a newborn life.
*
Goodbye, England
it's time to leave.
Thank you for bringing us family warmth,
which melts your chilling snow.
We promise to come again.
And again.
Goodbye, England
we shall see you then.



Christmas eve dinner
Happy birthday, mama

雪中漫步

*
雪中漫步
0下10度
一步一步
必有难度
*
雪中漫步
雪花飘纷
寒风袭袭
趣味无穷
*
雪中漫步
雪深10分
茫茫一片
难解难分
*
雪中漫步
冰雪遍地
天空朦胧
何去何从

古老的英国

英国的可爱
在她的古老--
老建筑
老教堂
老文物 以及
老人家。

还有--
700年的法律体系
300年的国会民主
400年的大学教育。

古老而坚持民主法治
是英国的特征。

保守而不落伍
是英国人的骄傲。

传统而崇尚公民社会
是英国人可取之处。

好冷,英伦

难得有机会‘享受’
英国40年来最寒冷的天气。
啊!零下的温度
满天飘飞的雪花
还有一片茫茫的雪白
好美!好美!

哈哈!佩妮和妈妈还有Jerry...大功告成

法律感想

英国是世界最古老的法治国家。
这里报章的法庭新闻,都报导得很详细,写得很清楚。

日前在这里读到一则报导,指一名80岁老翁,用铁锤击伤他太太(61岁)的男友(63岁),结果被告‘蓄意伤人’的罪名成立,被判坐牢2年。

这则新闻,使我联想起我国几年前的一个案例-
当时,一名年迈80,稍有名望的男律师,在首都一起公路意外中,开枪杀死一名骑电单车的青年,结果被告(律师)以自卫和健康状况为理由,上诉得值,法庭宣判他老人家无罪释放。

虽然这两个案例的实况(facts) 有所不同,可是两个国家的法律毕竟相似,难免令人对法庭的判决有所感触; 甚至对我国的司法和主控单位产生质疑,也在所难免。

伦敦的冬天

终于
来到了
冬天的伦敦
尝到了
伦敦的冬天

原来
伦敦的冬天
是那么的乏味
原来
冬天的伦敦
是那么的冷酷。

A journey

That was 1982.
He signed up for his London External
And bought his Holborn Law Tutorials.
Then came 1984
He said bye-bye to his Law.

Fifteen years later
Towards the end of his second career
He took up his LLB once more
And became a student at Advance Law Tutorial
Among a class of teenagers.

They called him 'uncle'
As he was the eldest of all.
He was 47 and not more.
Four years later
He too emerged a winner amongst them all.

And to pursue his dream further
He returned to Pantai Valley once more
After a lapse of 27 years.
This time, to realise his dream of a professional
Alas, he missed the boat by just a little
And had to postpone his dream a year after.

He continued at the Brickfields Law Tutors
Just to meet with a greater failure
Before his final victory a year later.

All in all
A journey of seven years
In the wilderness of the city Capital...

Alone but not so lonely
Rewarding at times frustrating
But most of all...
E-n-l-i-g-h-t-e-n-i-n-g.
~

LLB, oh CLP !

原来我不是我

我信主、我博爱
我布施、我慈悲
我捐献、我献身
我道貌、又岸然
原来,我不是我
*
我谦虚、我友善
我和祥、我仁义
我自卑、我自弃
我自夸、又自大
原来我,不是我
*
原来,我不是我
原来我,不是我
原来我不是我!

Take a breath


No matter what you do
Take a breath
Bring yourself back to the moment

No matter where you are
Take a breath
Bring yourself back to where you are

No matter who you are
Take a breath
Bring yourself back to who you are

No matter what you do
No matter where you are
No matter who you are
Take a breath
Be yourself
At the moment
For
That is the only life.

~~~
