Tell Me Why 面對人性的醜陋

在任何國家的執法機構，警察使用武力對付疑犯，已是司空慣例。但號稱具有高度文化水平的卑斯省，警察在公眾場所使用不恰當的暴力，卻顯現日趨嚴重。而生活於此的市民，又是否有責任去面對此問題.....



以上是維多利亞市的警察，涉嫌過度用武力踢打地上兩名男子的片段。如果沒有被現場民眾用相機攝錄下來，我們又是否能視而不見，也可能只有英國年僅8歲的Declan Galbraith更懂得人性的醜陋喔！



Tell Me Why

In my dreams, Children sing
A song of love for every boy and girl
The sky is blue, the fields are green
And laughter is the language of the world
Then I wake and all I see is a world full of people in need

Tell me why,(why) does it have to be like this
Tell me why, (why) is there something I have missed
Tell me why, (why) cause I don't understand
When so many need somebody
We don't give a helping hand
Tell me why

Every day, I ask myself
what will I have to do to be a man
Do I have, to stand and fight
To prove to everybody who I am
Is that what my life is for?
To waste in a world full of war

Tell me why, (why) does it have to be like this
Tell me why, (why) is there something I have missed
Tell me why,(why) cause I don't understand
When so many need somebody
We don't give a helping hand
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Just tell me why (why, why, why)

Tell me why, (why) does it have to be like this
Tell me why, (why) is there something I have missed
Tell me why, (why) cause I don't understand
When so many need somebody
We don't give a helping hand

Tell me why (Why why, does the tigers run?)
Tell me why (Why why, do we shoot the gun?)
Tell me why (Why why, do we never learn?)
Can someone tell us why we let the forests burn

(why why do we say we care?) tell me why
(why why do we stand and stare?) tell me why
(why why do the dolphins cry?) tell me why
can someone tell us why we let the ocean die

(why why if we're all the same?) tell me why
(why why do we pass the blame?) tell me why
(why why does it never end?)
can someone tell us why we cannot just be friends

why why?

Rick Warren 分亨活出生命的目的

Rick Warren(華理克)，是美國南加州馬鞍峰教會的創立牧師，也是"The Purpose-Driven Life" (標竿人生)的作者。此書在2002年名列紐約時報暢銷書次位，售出超過三千萬本。相對地也受到很多基督徒指責其書的斷章取義等。

反觀全書的信念，筆者是絕對認同作者的見解，深信上帝創造的每一個生命，都有祂的計劃和旨意，故我們更應盡量發揮自己的天份和影響力，為社會多作貢獻。以卞的錄影是分享他著作的書創下驚人銷量後，如何面對財務的處理，為神作見證。

我們都活在感恩的世界

還不到一星期，繼智利的8.8級大地震，早上又再傳來台灣南部發生6.4級大地震。相反地，溫哥華正是櫻花盛開的季節，我們又孰能不向上天感恩呢！



讓我們手牽手心連心來祈禱
願這世間一切吉祥平安
懷著一顆真誠心來祝福
願每個眾生都快樂

世界原本就是個大家園
但願眾生都能夠結善緣
活在感恩世界　讓愛灑遍世間
創造快樂美滿家園

讓我們手牽手心連心來祈禱
願這世間遠離諸多災難
懷著一顆慈悲心來祝福
願眾生能離苦得樂

世界原本就是個大家園
但願眾生都能夠結善緣
活在感恩世界　讓愛灑遍世間
創造快樂美滿家園

世界原本就是個大家園
但願眾生都能夠存善念
祈求諸佛明燈　照亮娑婆世界
風調雨順　歲歲年年
世界就是一個大家園
