重回放榜日

石頭中的甘露






昨天,開始我第一天的假期,仍開始我忙碌的第一天,很久沒有放假,仍很久沒有經歷放榜的心情。明天,將是妹妹的會考放榜,為了支持她,我已申請一星期的大假,與她共渡第一個百感交集的大日子。放榜日還未到,今早我已開始未雨籌謀的第一天敲門記,身心盡是疲累。可笑的是好幾間學校,誤會我是應屆會考生。

雖,我不知她的分數會如何?但作為姐姐的我,總得盡最大的努力與她作出配合,讓她在徬徨無助之時,仍可找到一點支持。重看她小時的照片,我知道這將是我,最後能為她鋪路的最後一仗。畢竟,她已再不是小孩,她有自己的去向。我只能從她選擇的路中,挑選一些比較平坦的,畢竟,往後的路程多遙遠,總應由她自己闖出來。我相信,人沒經歷跌踫,永不學懂長大;小時候的她第一次學懂走路,還不是由我們放手那一刻開始嗎?想著曾是跌踫中長大的我們,他們這一代是多麼幸福。曾這樣不滿意、那樣不滿,其實也只不過是「身在福中,不知福」的寫照。

一直而來,我都是家中的民主主義者,但往往卻被誤為縱容者。從來,我都不會選擇爭論,因我知畢竟要改變老人的看法,實不易。我相信行動,往往戰勝千言萬語;如其浪費時間爭辨,我寧選擇作我認為應作的事及背後支持。也許,因我深信玉不啄,不成器吧;或許,少許苦楚,往往才是最大的推動力。

適當的放手,是出於一分專重,也出於一分信任,其實,感情又可嘗不是?

Vitamin C - Graduation (Friends Forever) lyrics


And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of that night in June
I didn't know much of love
But it came too soon
And there was me and you
And then we got real blue
Stay at home talking on the telephone
We'd get so excited, we'd get so scared
Laughing at ourselves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels

[1] - As we go on
We remember
All the times we
Had together
And as our lives change
Come Whatever
We will still be
Friends Forever

So if we get the big jobs
And we make the big money
When we look back now
Will our jokes still be funny?
Will we still remember everything we learned in school?
Still be trying to break every single rule
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Will Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan?
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
And this is how it feels

[Repeat 1]

La, la, la, la:
Yeah, yeah, yeah
La, la, la, la:
We will still be friends forever

Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
