法國神父通宵陪伴大家
感謝佢帶領大家
和平地、平安地渡過一晚
願平安常與每位同在

「原來香港人是可以不為自己、無私地付出血汗，只為了美好的信念，為了香港將來，為了和平、自由。」

＃沸點直擊#已是夜深 【煲底下的法國人 范偉樂神父】
與青年一同祈禱，談 #修身齊家治國平天下

「大家好！明顯地，我不是香港人，我是一個法國人，希望你們聽懂我的廣東話。你們知道嗎？我們在法國罷工罷課，是很專業的！我在這裡，見到那些穿黃背心的朋友，你們或許會知道。不過，在法國罷工罷課，不像現在這樣，很多時人們只是維護自己利益，有時更會發生暴力，就好像「黃背心」(示威行動) 一樣，我們在法國會這樣罷工的。
　
但這幾天我在香港，見到很多人團結在一起，他們不是為了自己利益，而是為了香港將來、為公義、為自由、為平安，去表達自己的意見和關心，這令我覺得非常感動。

我4年前來到香港，我是一位天主教神父，一心在香港服務。4年前我仍未懂得講中文，那時候，我接觸到香港人，我覺得他們高度崇尚個人主義或者消費主義，又不太願意和別人打招呼，甚至有點冷漠。

但這幾天發生的事，讓我知道，那時候我誤會了。原來香港人可以不為自己，無私地付出血汗，只為了美好的信念、為香港將來、為和平、自由。就像夏主教說的，香港人值得驕傲，這些精神，我們需要珍惜。

起初來港2、3年，我不太清楚香港人身份；他們既是中國人、卻不喜歡中國人的身份？故此我也不大清楚香港人的身份是什麼。不過，這幾天，我開始明白香港人的身份是怎樣的。原來，有這麼多人團結起來，為了維護最重要的價值：自由、和平、仁愛！感謝大家在這幾天參與了這場大型運動！

現在，我正學習中文，最近我學習到一句說話，我相信大家也懂得的：「修身、齊家、治國、平天下」。「平天下」代表我們要平安，這幾天我們在此參與，正是因為「治國」出現了問題。現在「治國」不足，大家也為將來感到恐懼，害怕將來不能像現在般集會，不能擁有宗教自由。

由於治國出現了問題，所以我們現在要出來表達意見，但你們也要謹記：「治國」只是排第三位，排第一位是「修身」，修身即是要自己先要有和平和平安，保護我們和天主的關係，保護我們和別人互愛的關係。

而排第二位是「齊家」，的確，我們在家庭內，會有不同的意見，有時會有衝突或吵架，但我們要在家庭裡，保護愛的關係和包融的關係，互相包融與寬恕，才能補足到「治國」的缺乏。

故此，我們要關心「治國」問題，也要先「修身」和「齊家」，保持這樣的精神才能有真正的平安。真正的自由不單是外在的自由或政治的自由，也是內心的自由。所以我們要向我們的天父祈禱，因為我們的力量有限制，有時會不知該怎樣做，所以我們投奔天主 ，求祂幫助我們。

仁慈的天父，我們今晚在此聚集一起，因我們相信在困難中、在黑暗中，祢時常會與我們同在。求祢賜給我們團結共融的精神，好好保護祢賜給我們的愛和平安，亦為香港社會祈禱，或許香港社會人與人關係有點複雜，但無論我們在哪兒，也求祢讓我們造和平的工具，去做一些小事、 說一句話， 把大家的關係修好，使人與人之間的關係，可以互相包容和幫助。

我們感謝祢，這幾天有許多人為了公義、自由、仁愛而付出，雖然我們不知道將來會怎樣，能否繼續像現在般祈禱或表達意見，但求祢讓我們這份保護團結及和平的精神。因主、耶穌基督之名，求祢俯聽我們的祈禱，亞孟。」

於6月17日凌晨時份

Hello, everyone. It's apparent that I'm not a Hongkonger. I'm French. Hope you can understand my Cantonese.
Well, you know, when we're on strike in France...stop working or going to classes...we're very professional. I see lots of you here wearing a yellow vest. May be you know. However, in France, when we're on strike, it's not like here. People try to protect their own interests and would even gone violent sometimes...just like the Yellow Vest Movement. We would strike like that in France.
But these few days in Hong Kong, lots of people hold onto each other, not for their personal interest but for the future of Hong Kong, for justice, for freedom, for peace...express their opinion and care. I'm really moved.

I came to Hong Kong four years ago. I'm a Catholic priest and I came to serve Hong Kong. Four years ago, I don't know Cantonese. The Hongkongers I came across then gave me a feeling that they're fond of individualism and consumerism. They don't even want to greet each other...apparently a bit cold. But what happened these few days told me that I was wrong then about Hongkongers. Hongkongers can devote their sweat and blood not for their own self benefit but for their ideal, for the future of Hong Kong, for peace and freedom. As Bishop Ha said: Hongkongers, you should be proud of yourselves. Keep this spirit. We should treasure this spirit.

For the first two or three years when I first came to Hong Kong, I'm not quite sure about the identity of Hongkongers.
Hongkongers are Chinese but doesn't really like the identity of being Chinese. Hence, I'm a bit confused. But for the past few days, I begin to understand better the identity of Hongkongers. So many people hold onto each other in solidarity to protect the most valuable notions: freedom, peace and love. Thank you everyone to be part of this massive scale movement.

I'm still learning Chinese. Recently, I learnt a saying...I'm sure you all know that saying: improve your own self, manage your family, govern your country and then peace for all.

'Peace for all' means we all need peace. We're here these few days because there's a bit of problem about 'governing'.

This discrepancy in governing makes everyone worry about the future...worry about the freedom of gathering, the freedom of religion like what we're having now will be gone.

It's because of this discrepancy in governing, people come out to voice their opinion. But please remember, 'govern your country' is only at the third place. The first one is 'improve your own self'. That means, you should first have peace and safety...to protect the relationship between us and God...to protect the love between us and the others.

The second one is 'manage your family'. It's true that we have different opinion in the family. Sometimes, we argue...we have conflicts. But we have to protect the love within our family, accommodate each other, forgive each other so that we can make up to the discrepancy in 'governing'.

Hence, if we're going to care for 'governing our country', we have to, first of all, 'improve our own self' and 'manage our family'. With such a spirit, we will have real peace. Real freedom is not just a superficial freedom or political freedom. It's the inner freedom in our heart. We must pray to our heavenly Father. Our strength is limited. Sometimes, we don't know what to do. We must go to our God and beg for His help.

Merciful God, we're here tonight...we believe that when there is hardship, when we're in the dark, You are with us. Please grant us the spirit of solidarity, so that we can protect the love and peace you gave us. We pray for Hong Kong. May be the relationship among Hongkongers are a bit complicated but wherever we are, please let us be the instrument of peace...do something, may be very small, say a word or two to repair the relationship among us...so we can be accommodative and help each other.

We thank you...for the past few days, lots of people are sacrificing for justice, freedom and love. Although we don't know if in the future, we can pray or express our opinion like what we're doing now, please let us keep up with this spirit of solidarity and peace.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

[時事英文] Chicken Attack

★★★★★★★★★★★★

2017新年剛過，就出現最新的洗腦歌曲「Chicken Attack」。雖然歌曲本身沒什麼艱澀難懂的詞彙或真理 (e.g. Chicken attack! Chicken attack!) ，但是歌手石井健雄 (Takeo Ischi) 勇於追求自己的夢想和奮戰不懈的精神非常值得我們學習!

★★★★★★★★★★★★

The new viral video involves a bizarre plot and yodeling done by a Japanese man named Takeo Ischi. Yodeling is a form of singing that is associated with the people living in the Central Alps, a vast mountain range covering parts of Italy, France, Switzerland, Austria, and Germany. Yodeling was originally used by shepherds to call out to their animals, but it eventually became an art form. Ischi, with no indication of any German heritage in his family, first heard yodeling on the radio in high school and fell in love with it ever since.

Following his father, Ischi went to university for mechanical engineering. However, he never gave up on his dream of becoming a yodeler. Using old records, Ischi taught himself to yodel in his spare time, and began performing on Japanese television. During a six-month period where he studied abroad in Germany, Ischi went to Switzerland, where he sang and yoldeled at a beer hall in Zurich. He then performed on television and soon after that became known in Germany as the "Japanese yodeler."

Looks like Chicken Attack will soon give PPAP a run for its money.

Lyrics:

Give that back!
Otherwise you will regret it!
You are going to stop me alone?
Who told you I was alone?

You should know that a man with the power of nature
Can bring you to the end of your luck

And you should know by my stride
And the look in my eyes
That you're about to be massively
Forced to give up!

Chicken attack!
Chicken attack!

Watch your back
Before it fades to black
They might look harmless
But they'll kick your non-chicken ass

Go chicken go!
Go chicken go!

Now go, now fly
You own the sky

With the power of nature
You're never alone
And you can't let evil run amok

Every beast
Every tree
Follows me to the end
And you're about to be massively
F*****!

Chicken attack!
Chicken attack!

Watch your back
Before it fades to black
They might look harmless
But they'll kick your non-chicken ass

Go chicken go!
Go chicken go!

Now go, now fly
You own the sky

You're young and you're hungry
Perhaps short on money
I give this chicken today

Its eggs for your dinner
Its legs for next winter
You won't have to steal again

What a merciful person
Are you able to control all animals?
I can control all animals
But chickens are the best!

Help! Help!
My brother was held hostage
In a bank robbery in Fujimi!
Don’t worry! It’s going to be OK!

Go chicken go!
Go chicken go!
Now go, now fly
You own the sky

░░About Book 《ihategoodbye.》
This is a product of this passing stage. It contains two seperated parts, the visual and the text. To me, taking photographs is no longer as simple as recording what everyone appears to be; but a way of looking at my past/dead images and accepting my alienated/live existence. From a perspective of the main narrator,I looked closely at how I felt that I did not want to be parted with the "that-has-been" moments just before pressing the shutter.

The first "ihategoodbye" says good bye to the past. The aura has gone in a twinkling. The still images stay. Time moves, and the image passes (away).
The second "ihategoodbye" says I do not want to see you. Not wanting to be parted because what was photographed is the "old you", but what I see is the "new you". You are still on-going. The virtual images reflect the reality, nontheless, are added with the unstability of alienation and enstrangement. As per J. Lacan's Theory of Mirror Stage, similar to images in the mirrors, one may falsely recognize the images in the photographes as oneself, but the images are never as real as the ever changing realities.

The text, Diary, is the record of an intimate relationship between 2010 to 2012. BDSM practitioners are almost always particular about privacy, so that the images were transformed into words. The words may then be visualised and evolved into images.

At last, this is a collection of the fragments of the past. This is the ultimate relic that says, "Good bye".

░░About video｜
The image begins with the Bodhisattva in Taoism. In 2006 33% of the population of Taiwan is Taoist; tied with Buddhism, they are the two main religious beliefs.

Bodhisattva is often depicted not only as both male or female, but also genderless. According to , there are thirty three incarnations of Guan yin Bodhisattva, but in Sanskrit there is a distinction between male, female, and neuter. Nowadays the female incarnation is called “Gyoran Kannon (Fish-Basket Guan yin)”. “Women since ancient times always suffered more than men. The character of a woman is merciful and compassionate, and so motherly love is rare in male-oriented society.”《The Universal Door of Guan Shi Yin Bodhisattva》 explained why the incarnations are often depicted in women's image. Therefore the “incarnation/ metamorphosis at will” of Guan yin in the East emphasized the identification of intersectionality. By starting with Taoist deities and Bodhisattva, consumerist misappropriations are rapidly distributed by the pervasive internet and capitalist society. These materialist pursuits inherent in capitalism, because religious fanaticism also derives from the emptiness of the soul, increase religious “Disenchantment” in modern society.
