David Foster Wallace on freedom

".. there are all different kinds of freedom, and the kind that is most precious you will not hear much talked about in the great outside world of winning and achieving and displaying. The really important kind of freedom involves attention, and awareness, and discipline, and effort, and being able truly to care about other people and to sacrifice for them, over and over, in myriad petty little unsexy ways, every day. That is real freedom."

其實從來沒聽過David Foster Wallace這號人物,只是碰巧在張讓的文章上讀到,順手按了右鍵以GOOGLE搜尋一下,然後得到他對自由的另類見解。心甘情願的負責任好像就是他所謂的真自由---而且還要經過一番努力與訓練才能達成。

土鳳梨酥與永恆

過年前電子報編輯交付了「從文學電影看養生」的作業
始終沒有動筆
因為在看過的電影或是書中
實在想不出有什麼跟養生或是環保扯得上關連的故事
腦海中曾經閃過「笆比的盛宴」
但這種大肆鋪張的設宴情節
怎樣都跟環境保護沒關係
離養生的距離應該也很遠吧
(但的確也是部好電影啊!—料理都快變成藝術創作)

後來的後來
到台中發現了日出土鳳梨酥
在驚豔之際
突然發現
養生與環保還有另一種形式與層次
是更接近生活與人性的一種姿態
而不只是單單講求「環境正確」那種累人而勉強的類似信仰的心態

然後成文
