U ARE WHAT U READ.

I think one of the most important tenets to live by, is to never stop reading.  It doesn’t necessarily have to be Pulitzer Prize-winning novels or dry newsprint, either.  One of the greatest attributes of the Internet, in my opinion, is that it has instilled reading as a regular habit amongst all types of people.  I was born into a generation of boob-tubers, so at least we have the pursuit of knowledge and discussion on our side.
 
some of them e-books.  Yes, I own a Nook. No, I don’t have an iPad.  And yes, currently I’m finishing up Sarah Silverman’s The Bedwetter.  I’m definitely on the side of the Sarah Silverman fence that isn’t bridled with hate and protest at the comic’s divisive comedy.  This book isn’t a typical comedian joke book as much as a memoir of humorous instances throughout her life.  Love her or hate her, your mind will definitely be made by the end of this one.

Dear all

Recently I came across this book which I find very valuable. I would really love to translate into Chinese as I think a lot of people might benefit from it tremendously as I did. It is in the process of happening, and so this will be our secret – meanwhile, please keep your fingers crossed for this project!

Today, I sat in the park as the warmest days of March slipped away with the descending sun. I thought of you, all of you. And I thought of how funny it is if an invisible hand could just take the me who’s sitting in the park out of this world, yet I can still see you and think of you.

So the summer is coming.

Every year, since maybe three years ago, the first sweetness of summer’s air always frightens me. I am nevertheless filled with joy – and the first sight at a seemingly microscopical blossom of a flower intrigues me wondrously.

I hope you are well and ready for this wondrous season.

THINK ABOUT

In this world, the kind of people that I always doubtlessly have the most respect for, is the kind that ceaselessly chase with a pure heart, the most beautiful, noble and worthy of all. And the most beautiful, noble and worthy, always cast us its eternal glory and love, with which we sense no fear. Looking at all the misfortunes of our lives, if we can put them aside and look for what it is that we are pursuing, and that is pure and noble, I believe, we will never have fear.

what are we doooooooing??

I always wonder, what are we trying to say through art? Sometimes, we are so touched by art for art’s sake, by the exquisite craftsmanship of art itself, and we may in turn agree with the moral or philosophical views of the context – if there is one. But what is art supposed to do? What is art supposed to say? As a performer, are we to make choice of what work we want to take on? If so, do we base it on the artistic value, or its contextual value, or something else?
