Call me Chihiro
I watched a show, Call me chihiro. This reminds me of the opening sentence of Moby Dick, Call me Ishmael. I like it.
Chihiro’s ex-boss opened a shop of tropical fish. Chihiro thought he’s kind of her father. When I was in Singapore, somehow I’d like to visit Spain, Mexico or Argentina. I love that kind of passionate songs, dances, lives and spanish language. There is some happiness deep down there.
There is a metaphor in this show. One of Chihiro’s client once said that we were all aliens from different planets in human bodies. It is not possible to understand each other. Is it possible to meet someone from the same planet where you come? The chance is there, like a bird in the sky or a fish in the sea. You fly and you swim.
安分守己
当今中国人都把丛林法则中弱肉强食的社会达尔文主义当做这个社会的运行规律，用冷漠取代善心、用兽性泯灭人性，所以中国人只能永远活在“不得已而做奴才和拼死挣扎摆脱做奴才去做主子”的恶性循环里。中国人的处事和逻辑思维，正如林语堂先生所说：“逆来顺受已成为至理名言，弱肉强食也几乎等于天理。所以中国的精英阶层欺压小百姓，如大鱼吃小鱼，可以张开嘴等小鱼自己游进去，不但毫不费力，而且甚合天理。有一日，小鱼反对大鱼歼灭同类，就起来反抗，说：‘你为什么吃我’，大鱼说：‘你试试看你能吃得下我吗’。这大鱼的观点就是中国人的哲学，叫做安分守己。”
试着找了找出处，下面是原文：
在中国，逆来顺受已成为至理名言，弱肉强食，也几乎等于天理。贫民遭人欺负，也叫忍耐，四川人民预缴三十年课税，结果还是忍耐。因此忍耐乃成为东亚文明之特征。然而越“安排吃苦”越有苦可吃。若如中国百姓不肯这样地吃苦，也就没有这么许多苦吃。所以在中国贪官剥削小百姓，如大鱼吃小鱼，可以张开嘴等小鱼自己游进去，不但毫不费力，而且甚合天理。俄国有个寓言，说一日有小鱼反对大鱼的歼灭同类，就对大鱼反抗，说“你为什么吃我？”大鱼说：“那么，请你试试看。我让你吃，你吃得下去么？”这大鱼的观点就是中国人的哲学，叫做守己安分。小鱼退避大鱼谓之“守己”，退避不及游入大鱼腹中谓之“安分”。这也是吴稚晖先生所谓“相安为国”，你忍我，我忍你，国家就太平无事了。
