MAKE IT A BETTER PLACE.    奈奈－給吳道源警員的一封信；朱學恆－給吳道源警員的一封信、大縣長與小警員

今天之前，我這個資訊封閉，平時僅僅由網路新聞汲取新聞片羽的人，並不知道吳道恆員警的不幸。今天在貴婦奈奈的部落格看到了，我也連結到朱學恆先生所寫的幾篇文章，心情真的很沉重。

確實，人生如此迥異，幸與不幸，並不能從表面上的公平與否來判定，因為那必定是無力的，從各種角度來看，每個角度都有不同的判讀方法；一直以來我對世界抱持著哀傷卻不絕望的想法，世界上讓人沉痛的事情很多，戰爭、貧困、饑荒、疾病、死亡與分離...種種不幸逼出我們的眼淚與不捨，我總質疑自己螻蟻之力，啟能撼動整個世界的傷痛？



這張照片，想必大家都不陌生。

這是國家地理雜誌記者1984年在巴基斯坦難民營所拍攝的照片，這雙眼睛，在刊登出來後一直深深留在人們心裡：她在想甚麼？她是否曾質疑自己的命運為何如此多舛？是否曾出現恨？又或者，選擇接受？

沒有人知道。

今天看了這幾篇文章，想想身邊的人們與生命，我嘗試用愛去包容所有的事物，過去有必然性，所有我們曾受過的苦楚必定也有其意義，或許是上天要讓我們對世界角落中，其餘水深火熱的人們學會同理心。你總是問我：｢為什麼要擔心這麼多卻苦了自己？｣我總說，我希望看到的世界，是大家都快樂美好的，因此呢，想要盡力保護每個人不輕易受傷。

不管是一隻小狗狗，湖畔的水鳥，跌倒疼痛受傷惡疾，承受生活壓力而頹喪，和摯愛家人吵架...種種的苦痛，只要有愛，我想一定可以被療癒和包容。

人生而為人，並非為了享樂，而是受苦，快樂我想是命運贈與的燦爛禮物，獨一無二，可以包容萬物的愛，也是。只有人的愛可以澤被四方，只有人有這種能力可以用愛去治療許多傷痛。世界就在身邊的，今天思緒有點凌亂，我會寫封信去告訴吳道源員警的家人，他的犧牲，我會記得，難過是必經的，而這痛苦，會轉化為我們向前行的氣力。

如果願意，大家也提筆寫張卡片吧，愛，永遠是最大的治療力量。

另外，請聽聽這首歌。

 

Heal the world Michael Jackson

spoken:
Think about the generations and to say we want to make it a better
world for our children and our children's children. So that they know
it's a better world for them; and think if they can make it a better
place.

There's a place in your heart
And I know that it is love
And this place could be much brighter than tomorrow
And if you really try
You'll find there's no need to cry
In this place you'll feel there's no hurt or sorrow

There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space
Make a better place...

Heal the world, make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me

If you want to know why
There's a love that cannot lie
Love is strong, it only cares of joyful giving
If we try, we shall see
In this bliss, we cannot feel fear or dread
We stop existing and start living

Then it feels that always
Love's enough for us growing
So make a better world
Make a better world...

And the dream we were conceived in
Will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed in
Will shine again in grace
Then why do we keep strangling life
Wound this earth. Crucify its soul
Though it's plain to see
This world is heavenly be God's glow

We could fly so high
Let our spirits never die
In my heart I feel you are all my brothers
Create a world with no fear
Together we cry happy tears
See the nations turn their swords into plowshares
We could really get there
If you cared enough for the living
Make a little space
To make a better place...

There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
