The tone that speaks to the heart
No matter how much I refine my proficiency in english, no matter how much I try to understand and integrate myself in the english culture, the language that speaks to my emotional self is still the one that I was born with. The following exchange speak to me truer than anything that can be done in english. It is as if english is only a facade that can be changed anytime whereas the letters in chinese are set ins tone and twist me in ways that I can’t fathom.
�德,

七年來, 我一個人在外奔波,的確長把家人放到最後. 也有å??醒é?Žæˆ‘å°?ä½ å€‘çš„æ…‹åº¦ä¹Ÿè¨±æœ‰é»žå†·æ·¡, 但餓著肚å?煩悶人生下一æ¥è©²äº”往那走時, 也沒有多花心æ€?去想.
今年, 終於有個åƒ?樣的工作. 舞é?“也告一段è?½äº†. 人生æ¥ä¼?跟著也慢下來了, 給了我時間去å??çœ?. 我發覺, 在盲目的è¡?刺下我ç–?忽了很多é‡?è¦?的人跟事. å†?æ¤æŠ±æ‰.
我會多花心血在這方�的事上.
