American Mind in an Asian Body

"Are you from Brazil or Indonesia?" people usually ask me at the first time we meet.
 This question for me isn't a problem. I always want to be a international teenager, who has wide vision, and mature mind. The problem is how I can get a balance between western culture and orient life. Every people around me can feel that I am really falling in love with American culture in which country gives every people chances to make their dream come true.  I read the book which study American's behavior. I listen the song which teach me the way American think. Everything seem like I am created for American. However I have a Asian outside. I am a Taiwanese. I grow up in Taipei. My Chinese is better than my English. I don't have blond hair and blue eyes. These are all the true that I can't deny.

Comments in good or bad side about my style never leave me. Before I probably laughed at the people who isn't in my side, but now I really appreciate them. The reason I change is that I get a new idea. The idea is come from a movie called Karate Kid. This is a film with an intercultural fusion story. How do an African American Kid won the champion of kung fu tournament and get with Chinese culture? The core of spirit of this movie is not just telling us how Kung fu works but also focus on what should we do in the time that people around the world are living together.
There are no places without Chinese people. You also can find the western people walking on the street in your home town. This is the time we have to review our position in the world.



Should I choose to be an American or Chinese? it doesn't matter anymore. I can be myself.I should be a person whom God created. I should learn the good things from any cultures, but not   following everything which is exotic. There is no thing which is always right or wrong, so we have to determine by our feeling. Thanks God give me such a chance to learn how to be myself and how to work my body and mind in the way you create. Everything happened to me must have it's meaning. It's my choice to decide to find or ignore it. This time my decision is to face it, cause I know that changing is a way to get closer to your dream.

給陳菊的一封信

★給  陳菊市長的一封信★

或許今天你以處理掉流浪動物為
     創造創造優質生活環境為目的
但, 請不要如此自私
我們都不應該如此自私

這世界不應該完全以人類為中心
我們人類有限的生命中不過短短幾十年
我們沒有權利去剝奪其他生命
如以宗教的立場來講,或許動物們也是修了很久
才有機會來到這美麗的世界一窺究竟

今天或許你為我們大家創造了更優質的環境
但你有辦法為這宏大的世界負責嗎
你有辦法為你自己的自私負責嗎

當我們年紀越小的時候,越是喜歡大自然
接近動物、植物是我們的天性
因為這是天體運行的平衡
別因為現在的地位視野格局不同
而忘記了最初你與大自然的默契
你不應該在任何壓力之下,做出違背自己內心的平靜
你不應該在任何慾望之下,做出你與自然間失衡的策略
你不應該、我們都不應該   如此自私

事情有辦法,一定有正面的辦法,肯定有一個讓自然與人類共處的辦法
請,不要嫌麻煩
如果只因為扼殺掉生命,會比較簡單
那你最初的信念何在
請,不要背叛自己
因為永遠不知道找回自己有多難
請,市長
讓讓您的小女孩永遠住在您的心中 
請她、請原本的她、請最真實的她
導引你的方向

這封信希望您可以看的到
希望讀過之後對您有幫助

我以同樣與您生長在同一個世界的生命‧向您提醒..
