The opposite of love is not hate, it’s indifference. The opposite of art is not ugliness, it’s indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it’s indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it’s indifference.

One-T & Cool-T是一个年仅13岁的DJ,来自普罗旺斯,小小年纪就可以把House音乐玩得出神入化,但是因为她的年纪,为了不和法国的青少年保护法抵触,她一直隐姓埋名,在朋友的帮助下独自组织了很多次精彩的派对,但是没有人知道她的真实姓名,没有人见过她长什么样,她每次的DJ表演都会戴一个面具,每次的面具都不一样。她所有的MV中也一律是以卡通形象露面。

Happiness Is A Journey

Posted on Friday, February 2nd, 2007 at 1:40 pm

作者是一位名字叫做Alfred D’Souza的神父,是在告诉人们要更加珍惜那些可以与别人共度过的时光,不要等待,没有通往快乐的道路,因为快乐本身就是道路,一段旅程,而不是终点~

For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin , real life. But, there was always some obsacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinnished business, time still to be served or a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So treasure every moment that you have and treasure it more because you share it with someone special, someone special enough to spend your time with. Make the most of your time. Don’t waste too much of your time studying, working, or stressing about something that seems important. Do what you want to do to be happy but also do what you can to make the people you care about happy. Remember that time waits for no one. So stop waiting until you take your last test, until you finnish school, until you go back to school, until you have the perfect body, the perfect car, or whatever other perfect thing you desire.
Stop waiting until the weekend, when you can party or let loose, until summer, spring, fall or winter, until you find the right person and get married, until you die, until your born again, to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy.
Happiness is a journey,
not a destination.
So work like you don’t need the money,
Love like you have never been hurt, and dance like no one’s watching.

Living Life Over [转]

Living Life Over

If I had my life to live over…I would have talked less and listened more.

I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was strained and the sofa faded.

I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth.

I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed.

I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage.

I would have sat on the lawn with my children and not worried about grass stains.

I would have cried and laughed less while watching television – and more while watching life.

I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would go into a holding patter if I were not there for the day.

I would never have bought anything just because it was practical, would not show soil or was guaranteed to last a life time.

There would have been more “I love yous” … more “I’m sorrys”… but mostly, given another shots at life,

I would seize every minute… look at it and really see it…live it…and never give it back.

爱尔兰 埃尔顿 Altan—Daily Growing

The trees they grow high, and the leaves they do grow green,
Many is the time my true love I’ve seen,
Many an hour I have watched him all alone,
He’s young but he’s daily growing.
树儿,他高高的生长,叶儿,她嫩绿嫩绿
很早我就见到了我的爱人
很多时候,我悄悄凝望他
他很年轻却一天天的成长

Father, dear father, you’ve done me great wrong,
You have married me to a boy who is too young,
I am twice twelve and he is but fourteen,
He’s young but he’s daily growing.
父亲,亲爱的父亲,你对我做了件大错事
你让我嫁给一个太年轻的男孩
我都24了他却14
他很年轻却一天天的成长

Daughter, dear daughter, I’ve done you no wrong,
I have married you to a great lord’s son,
He will be a man for you when I am dead and gone,
He’s young but he’s daily growing
女儿,亲爱的女儿,我并没做错什么
我让你嫁给了一个不错的小伙子
当我老去离开后他将成为你唯一的男人
他很年轻却一天天的成长

Father, dear father, if you see fit,
We’ll send him to college for another year yet,
I’ll tie a blue ribbon all around his head,
To let the maidens know that he is married.
父亲,亲爱的父亲,如果你觉得适合
我们来年就送他去学校
我会把他头上绑条蓝丝带
让其他的女子知道他已经结婚

One day I was looking over my father’s castle wall,
I spied all the boys playing with a ball,
And my own true love was the flower of them all,
He’s young but he’s daily growing.
有天,我在我父亲的城墙观望
我看到很多男孩子在玩球
我的至爱是其中最显眼的一个
他很年轻却一天天的成长

And so early in the morning at the dawning of the day,
They went into a hayfield to have some sport and play,
And what they did there she never would declare,
But she never more complained of his growing.
黎明初晨
他们在草地上运动玩耍
她无法知道他们在做什么
但她再也不会抱怨他的成长

At the age of fourteen he was a married man,
At the age of fifteen the father of my son,
At the age of sixteen his grave it was green,
And death had put an end to his growing.
他14岁时就是个已婚男子了
15岁 他就成了我孩子的爸
16岁时他年轻的离去了
死亡把他的成长定格成终点

I’ll buy my love some flannel,
I’ll make my love a shroud,
With every stitch I put in it,
the tears they will pour down,
With every stitch I put in it,
how the tears they will flow,
Cruel fate has put an end to his growing.
我要为我的爱人买些布裳,
我要为我的爱人做件裳,
我的一针一线
泪滴汇制
我的一针一线
泪从何处流
残酷的命运把他的一生划了个终点

歌曲背景:

一个女子在年轻的时候由于父亲的安排嫁给了一个显贵的子弟,她开始担心自己的年龄有一天会成为感情悲剧的主因,她埋怨父亲错误的将自己嫁给了一个比她小很多的男子。婚后第二年,他们有了自己的孩子,而她的夫君却也还是一个孩子,在一天天的长大。她送他去上学,为他裹了蓝色的头巾,她怕别人抢走父亲为自己选定依存的真爱。而命运的捉弄,却使她很快成了寡妇,在为爱人缝制寿衣的时候,她的悲哀成了整个曲子的灵魂…
