Simple Love (簡單愛) - Jay Chou

I like simple love & life :)

佛道 (Buddhism)

Why unnecessary complexities are "necessary"

I always believe in Einstein's quote

Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not more so.

The world as I know it now, however, has way too many complexities. From my experience, these complexities exist usually not because the systems need them to work. Rather, they are there because it is easy to screw outsiders when a system is complex enough.

This is especially true because few of us are research-type people who would do due diligence to really find out how things work. And for those who can, they may not have time to do that.

Think about it, many industries are like that.

Making decision and moving forward are almost always...

Making decision and moving forward are almost always more important than debating what the optimal solution is.

Why?

Because it is rarely the case that the optimal solution is significantly better than the second-best (or even the third-best) one that deserves the hassle of argument.

That's why I like Aaron Burr's quote so much.

Little Wonders - Rob Thomas

Didn't know that there was such as good film back in 2007 until now. The lovely lyrics of this song wonderfully match the main theme of the movie. The director chose to play it at the very end, a brilliant move :)

Let it go

Let it roll right off your shoulder

Don't you know

The hardest part is over

Let it in

Let your clarity define you

In the end

You will only just remember how it feels

Our lives are made

In these small hours

These little wonders

These twists and turns of fate

Time falls away

But these small hours

These small hours

Still remain

Let it slide

Let your troubles fall behind you

Let it shine

Till you feel it all around you

And I don't mind

If it's me you need to turn to

We'll get by

It's the heart that really matters in the end

Our lives are made

In these small hours

These little wonders

These twists and turns of fate

Time falls away

But these small hours

These small hours

Still remain

All of my regret

Will wash away somehow

But I cannot forget

the way I feel right now

In these small hours

These little wonders

These twists and turns of fate

Yeah, these twisted turns of fate

Time falls away

Yeah, but these small hours

These small hours

Still remain

Yeah, oh they still remain

These little wonders

All these twists and turns of fate

Time falls away

But these small hours

These little wonders

Still remain

今天只做一件事 - Tuomas Jauhiainen

I'm touched every time I see that music crosses the boundary of countries and races (like MJ...). This video features a guy in Finland singing a song of Eason in Cantonese. Tuomas may not understand the lyrics but it's definitely a beautiful articulation :)
