随性 (CNY)



年幼的儿子从小就爱看舞狮,买了个小舞狮头给他,他就随着舞狮录像的节奏似模似样的舞起来。和所有小朋友们一样,爱玩,爱闹,爱模仿的天性不需大人们的启发,它就在体内流着的血液里,也在每个人与生俱来的基因里。

回到乡下过年,除了和家人们的团圆饭,和朋友们聚一聚,一些民间习俗如放鞭炮,舞龙舞狮,烧香接财神等虽然都是春节惯例,却让春节的气氛更加浓郁,也让那几乎忘了玩乐的心灵又活跃起来。

没有了民间传统艺术,没有了信念,生活会是如何呢?只有工作生产赚钱的生活,和行尸走肉没甚分别,也必定不是完整的。因此朋友,兴起爱玩的时候就请尽情玩乐吧。平衡永远比失衡好得多。

随缘随心随意,是我向往的生活。如何在为生活奔波的同时,能做到随缘随心随意,是我在龙年的小展望。。。




During my stay in my hometown for CNY (Chinese New Year) celebration, I had an infection on my lip, but that did not stop me much from having good times with my family and enjoying the usual lovely atmosphere of the Spring Festival.

The traditional Chinese cultural art and practices such as the lion dance, the firecracker and the prayers for the God of Fortune made the children as well as the grown-ups cheery and delighted.

I did not miss the opportunity to capture some images of the lion dance, the firecracker and the incense sticks used for the prayers.

Every Lunar New Year celebration may be more or less the same, but I never fail to enjoy the joy through these simple activities and atmosphere they created, as well as through the opportunity to reunite with family members and meeting some old friends.

  4. ..."随缘"的心态可以学习并逐步实践。但要在生活中“随心随意”,还真有点挑战,毕竟是群体生活,我们终究受到礼俗等的牵制。

  6. 首先要摆脱别人的眼光,活出自己,才能随心所欲!
