Policy of Truth - Depeche Mode

You had something to hide
Should have hidden it, shouldn't you
Now you're not satisfied
With what you're being put through
It's just time to pay the price
For not listening to advice
And deciding in your youth
On the policy of truth

Things could be so different now
It used to be so civilised
You will always wonder how
It could have been if you'd only lied
It's too late to change events
It's time to face the consequence
For delivering the proof
In the policy of truth

Never again is what you swore
The time before
Never again is what you swore
The time before

Now you're standing there tongue tied
You'd better learn your lesson well
Hide what you have to hide
And tell what you have to tell
You'll see your problems multiplied
If you continually decide
To faithfully pursue
The policy of truth

Never again is what you swore
The time before
Never again is what you swore
The time before

But Not Tonight - Depeche Mode

Oh God it's raining
But I'm not complaining
It's filling me up with new life
The stars in the sky
Bring tears to my eyes
They're lighting my way tonight

And I haven't felt so alive
In years

Just for a day
On a day like today
I'll get away from this constant debauchery
The wind in my hair
Makes me so aware
How good it is to live tonight

And I haven't felt so alive
In years

The moon
Is shining in the sky
Reminding me
Of so many other nights
But they're not like tonight

Oh God it's raining
And I'm not containing
My pleasure at being so wet
Here on my own
All on my own
How good it feels to be alone tonight

And I haven't felt so alive
In years

The moon
Is shining in the sky
Reminding me
Of so many other nights
When my eyes had been so red
I'd been mistaken for dead
But not tonight

A view of the current local traffic. 

Something white and red... 

Something red... 

Something green...? 

Today's cloudy sky... 

Biking trip on a cloudy day. 

Looking up at the sun... 

What Kind Of Man Would I Be? - Chicago

...
Tell me, what kind of man would I be?
Living a life without any meaning
And I know you could surely survive without me
But if I have to live without you
Tell me, what kind of man would I be?

You Come To My Senses - Chicago

I picture you on the beach
Lying in the sand
Out of reach of my trembling hands
I picture you in the car
Blonde hair in the wind
I picture you in my arms
And the touch of your skin
The smile on your face
The way that you taste

CHORUS
You come to my senses
Every time I close my eyes
I have no defenses
Driving home in the cold
January rain
I've got to find my way out of this pain
I reached for you in the night
I dreamed of your kiss
I woke before it got light
With your name on m lips
Alone in my bed
Your voice in my head

CHORUS
I picture you in my arms
And the touch of your skin
The smile on your face
The way that you taste
You come to my senses
I can't stop this ache inside
Oh, I have no defenses
You come to my senses
Ah...

Glory of Love - Peter Cetera

Tonight it's very clear
As we're both lying here
There's so many things I want to say
I will always love you
I would never leave you alone

Sometimes I just forget
Say things I might regret
It breaks my heart to see you crying
I don't wanna lose you
I could never make it alone

I am a man who will fight for your honor
I'll be the hero you're dreaming of
We'll live forever
Knowing together that we
Did it all for the glory of love

You keep me standing tall
You help me through it all
I'm always strong when you're beside me
I have always needed you
I could never make it alone

I am a man who will fight for your honor
I'll be the hero you've been dreaming of
We'll live forever
Knowing together that we
Did it all for the glory of love

Just like a knight in shining armor
From a long time ago
Just in time I will save the day
Take you to my castle far away

I am a man who will fight for your honor
I'll be the hero you're dreaming of
We're gonna live forever
Knowing together that we
Did it all for the glory of love

We'll live forever
Knowing together that we
Did it all for the glory of love

We did it all for love
We did it all for love
We did it all for love
We did it all for love

Heart desires...

...the undesirable

If...

If I've never met her...
If I've never praised her...
If I've never bought her flowers...
If I've never chased after her...
If I've never done what she desires...
If I've never kissed her...
If I've never slept with her...
If I've never slapped her...
If I've never met her friend...
If I've never cheated on her...
If I've never left her...
If I've never...
If...

Oh no! The latest movie version of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is terrible!

《葛生》
葛生蒙楚，蔹蔓于野。予美亡此。谁与独处！
葛生蒙棘，蔹蔓于域。予美亡此。谁与独息！
角枕粲兮，锦衾烂兮。予美亡此。谁与独旦！
夏之日，冬之夜。 百岁之后，归於其居！
冬之夜，夏之日。 百岁之后，归於其室！

Life...?

What is the purpose of life?
Working nine to five?
Having two kids and a wife?
Maybe when I retire at sixty-five...

...I will see.

Devotion...

"There's nothing in the world like the devotion of a married woman; it's a thing no married man knows anything about." — Oscar Wilde

love... lost

"Better to have loved and lost,
than to have never loved at all."

thoughts...

thoughts can be evil
inspired by the devil
only love that is pure
can provide the cure

Daydreaming at night...

4 in the morning, daydreaming
to accomplish the impossible
to reach the heart's desire
without losing all that's been built

Solitude, solitaire
let the magic fill the air
let the mind wander
aimlessly, endlessly, to... "there"

幸福...

幸福唔係必然
要靠自己爭取

Haiku

What is there to say,
if all that's said I won't regret?
Trapped, cannot express...

清明...

My Name...

According to about.com, my name actually means "Noble Friend". On BabyNameAddicts.com, it means "Elf Friend".

From a local TV drama series, my name means, in Chinese,「至愛」. Don't see how "Noble Friend" or even "Elf Friend" translates into that...

Now aren't you glad to have such a noble (though not Elven) friend? ;)

My First...

This is my first posting... I still don't understand the beauty of blogs. Hopefully this can shed some light on the magic of blogging.
