The Legend Never Ends


The only peaceful voice in the dead tranquility before the atrocious storm; the death by exile of walking on the fragile ice; the devilish voice revealing the truth about the corrupted and lies while claiming himself as a liberal to return freedom; the echo of ''Rise'' in the hopeless pit when the fallen knight closes his eyes before taking the leap of faith --- everything comes down to the ultimate word of the theme - Hope.

Christopher lays out his trilogy like a puzzle, where the pieces are scattered all over the hidden corners of the stories, and when you think you've grabbed the final piece that fits perfectly into the picture you imagined, he materializes the contrasting perfection that blows your mind off right away.

Watching it the 2nd time simply allowed my heart to be conquered fully. I think that you're not living in this century if you miss it. To me, it's his best yet, and my best yet, too.

Oh and I'm watching my tears crystallizing on the last piece of the puzzle.

走在钢索上的人


生命与死亡就取决在那一条钢索上。

任何时候,任何地方,我们都在走着,走久了,也就惯了,渐渐遗忘危险,渐渐开始欺骗自己正走在宽阔的大道;开始奢侈地区分性别,种族,宗教,地位,财富,感情;开始狂妄自大地筑起自己谎言的国度,活在自己幻想打造出的安全区域.....

却大意地忘了,到头来,我们仅仅是走在钢索上的人,没有区分,没有国度,没有安全。

当附近的人在过了不知多久后突然踩空,瞬间消失在眼前时,我们才会被那脚底震动不已的钢索给惊醒,被警惕的心才会当下醒觉。别虚度每踏出的一步,要珍惜那不知何时终结的路程。

不久以后,警告将再次被遗忘,我们将再次投入谎言的怀抱。

青春睡醒了


“你几level料?哇佬我昨天升我的小号升到西北辛苦叻!对料,你结婚料吗?我开料两个帐号,一个用来结婚的,哈哈,geng叻!”

搭LRT回家时无意间听到的这番对话,眼看着稚气未脱的他们身上的那些白衣青裤,我会心一笑,曾几何时,自己与他们完全没两样,穿着背着知识,嘴里脑子里的却尽是虚拟世界里的打怪做任务进家族帮会升级装备开宝箱,等等,等等有的没的。

步出车厢,外边正下着绵绵细雨,往日穿着校服的青涩回忆被勾起,身旁行色匆匆穿着蓝白青校服的男孩女孩,霎时陌生得如此熟悉,那些久违的脸庞又再次浮现于脑海,如此清晰...不,是清晰得就在眼前!对,万没想到当时即迎头碰上了其中几张脸庞,尽管仅得寒暄几句,但缘分筑成的重逢完完全全唤醒我沉睡已久的青春。

走过了长短高低的五脚基,拜访了为他日胜地的书店,缩腹越过了马路中那长长的栏杆间的缝隙,目睹了那依然塞满休息时间忙着买食物充饥的学生的711,走过了依然辛勤工作的老板的手表店。转弯处,映入眼帘满是熟悉的身影,在挤满比马路还要塞的课室外楼梯间,不耐烦地排队在排长龙的炸鸡档口前,避雨在对边空旷的店屋屋檐下。

笑着,我经过,漫步在那个画面里,再头也不回地直走到那间最贴近我心的餐厅。一切未变,依然如此地温暖,其间店员姐姐还认出了我,我以腼腆的笑回应她的贴心,再坐到那蓝光闪耀的桌子前。

拍下这杯兑换的红茶的那一杀那,我心里溢满的感恩缅怀之情倾泻而出,淌在这依然守护着我青少年华的小镇土地上。
