🎁 好課程推薦 🎁

以前的我以為生命是一場戰役，現在的我越來越感受到，生命其實是一份禮物。我的生命不是我努力得來的，陽光不是我努力得來的，空氣、海洋、家人、朋友……這些都不是因為我此生做了什麼努力，而本該歸我。這一切都是禮物，而我只需要懷著感激的心去接受，並且也把我自己的禮物分享給他人。

昨天跟大家提到了「無形的禮物」，今天想跟大家推薦一個我最近在上的網上課程，叫做「Living in The Gift」。課程是由來自美國、年輕時在台灣居住過多年的作家和演講者Charles Eisenstein所帶領的，其中探討了為什麼多數人以匱乏的心態在過活；為什麼許多人的「給予」其實是「借貸」，是抱著期待在付出；為什麼許多人做有意義的工作，卻無法得到金錢的回報，等等。

這個課程挑戰了人類文明建立以來的迷思，也喚醒了我們心中一直沒有忘記的覺知。

課程本身也是以禮物的形式提供給大家的，每個人可以依據財務狀況、自己認為收穫多大，來決定要付多少學費。雖然課程11月就已經開始了，不過許多錄音和影片檔是事先就準備好的，所以稍微晚點參與也沒關係。我自己也是上週才開始的。

課程以英文進行（雖然講者本人其實中文超好）。更多資訊，就請有興趣的朋友自己研究囉：https://charleseisenstein.org/courses/living-in-the-gift/

🎁Living in The Gift 🎁

I used to think of life as a battle, but I've started to realize that life is actually a gift. I didn't earn my life, I didn't earn the sun, the air, the ocean, my family, my friends...all these came to me as gifts, and all I need to do is accept with gratitude, and share my gifts with others, too.

"Living in The Gift" is an online course I've been taking since last week, hosted by Charles Eisenstein. It touches upon why most people live in a mindset of scarcity, why for many giving is not unconditional, why so many people do meaningful work without being able to receive sufficient financial return, etc.

It challenges the fundamental myth of our civilization, and awakens something in us that we've always known.

And not surprisingly, the course itself is offered as a gift. You can pay however much you want based on your financial situation and how much you think you benefit from the course.

愛情很多時候你想破頭也無法理解，卻能在某個觸動心的時刻豁然開朗。

Love is usually something you can never make sense of until the moment it touches your heart.

日文歌詞 / Japanese Lyrics :
曖昧なヘルツに合わせたならNo Good
もうパスワードのようにダイヤルをアジャスト

見えない波長が声を音を届けて
名前のない時間、リライトする

空と空を架けて想いと想いを繋げて
僕たちを輝かせる弾むジングル

さぁ　Radio　響けクールな音で　憂鬱なノイズすらイレース
うまくいかない苛立ちも泡んなって消える
So great day　軽快な鼻歌で　単色な日々をメイクアップ
ハイになるサウンド　明日へのエネルギー　yes！

揺れ幅でもって伝えてAmplitude
そんな遠くに行っちゃ届かんよFrequency

鼓膜を震わす心地よい言葉
身体を駆け巡っていく

Pops Rock Fusion Jazz R&BにCountry
流れ出すその瞬間に心躍る

Oh DJ！　バッチリなナイスなチョイスで　誰かの孤独すらイレース
溜め込んじゃってるストレスも煙になって消える
So great day　キャッチーなイントロで　単調な日々をグレードアップ
どんな背景も彩ってくれるんだ　yes！

さぁ　Radio　響けクールな音で　邪魔するノイズはオールイレース
口をつくようなヨワネなんかボリューム絞ってしまえ！
そんくらいで　feel so good！自分だけの　チューニング見つけてワンアップ
拳をギュッと固く握って　yes！！

中文歌詞 / Chinese Lyrics :
倘若只是模糊地配合音頻可不好
就像是在找尋密碼一般撥轉著旋鈕

看不見的波長傳遞著種種聲響與音樂
將這段不具名的時間重新改寫

於不同片天空間架起橋樑、在思念和思念之間牽起聯繫
琅琅上口的躍動聲響使我們更加耀眼

來吧！開啟收音機！響起你那爽快的聲音、消除使人憂鬱的雜訊
事不如意的煩躁感終將化作泡沫消逝而去
在這樣的美好時日，哼著輕快的歌、為單調乏味的黑白生活抹上彩妝
不禁起舞的聲音，都將成為迎向明日的動力！Yes！

乘上聲波傳遞振幅
如果在那麼遠的地方，可接收不到頻率呦

耳膜因悅耳的言語輕微振動
也不禁使身體繞著圈翩翩起舞

不論是流行、搖滾、融合爵士樂，亦或鄉村樂和節奏藍調
在音樂播出的瞬間，內心也將隨之雀躍

Oh DJ！請以你恰到好處的絕佳選曲，消除某人心中的孤獨吧！
積存已久、令人喘息的壓力，也將化作煙霧散去
這樣的美好時日，以琅琅上口的前奏，將單調無趣的日子向上昇華！
不論是何種背景都能沾染上繽紛色彩的吧！Yes！

來吧！開啟收音機！響起你那爽快的聲音、消去所有干擾的雜訊
「快將脫口而出的氣餒轉至最小聲！」
如此一來就倍感痛快多了！調出只屬於自己的音律之後，又更向前了一點！
緊緊地握住拳頭抓牢這份旋律吧！Yes！！

英文歌詞 / English Lyrics :
If you’re matching up to an indefinite Hƶ, that’s no good…
So adjust your dial like inputting a password!

Those unseen wavelengths will carry your voice- its sound,
Going on to rewrite those nameless times.

Forming a bridge between our skies- connecting our feelings-
Is a bouncing jingle that has us shining bright!

C’mon, radio! Blasting those cool sounds, erase even that melancholic noise!
Even the frustration from difficult times will float off like a bubble!
So great day: humming a casual tune, apply some make up to those monochrome days!
That sound, reduced to ashes, will be an energy unto tomorrow – yes!

Use the breadth of these vibes to communicate the amplitude!
But if you keep going so far away, the frequency won’t reach…

Those comforting words that shake our eardrums
Begin to run throughout your bodies.

Pops, Rock, Fusion, Jazz, R&B, and Country;
The moment their sounds start flowing, our hearts begin to dance!

Oh, DJ! With your perfectly nice selection, erase someone’s loneliness!
All that stress they’ve saved up will turn to smoke and trail away!
So great day: with a catchy intro, raise the grade of those monochrome days!
It’ll go on to color any scenery it touches – yes!

C’mon, radio! Blasting those cool sounds, erase every noise that gets in the way!
Squeeze the sound right out of any complaint put to words!
Just like that, it feels so good! Finding our own tuning, we’ll get a 1UP!
So clench that fist tightly, so firmly – yes!!

日文歌詞 / Japanese Lyrics :
僕が失くしてしまったもの
離さないで　繋いで　今を抱き締めるよ

カメレオンに騙されて壊れた僕は　もう何を失くしたって奪われないよ
不安を脱いで逃避行　慣れないスピードに歪んだ僕の顔を隠せるかな

孤独を嘆く人　挫折を笑う人　歪を嫌う人
誰も怖くなんかないよ　ここから見えている真実が過去を満たして

僕が失くしてしまったもの
色が次第に変わって未来に散りばめられたその鮮やかさを
離さないで　繋いで　今を抱き締めるだけ

誰かの答えがこんなに溢れて　並べられていても
誰かの叫びがこんなに溢れて　愛を探している

失くしたものばかりを見つけても
怖くなって　止まって　泣いて
浮かび上がる自分の輪郭を逃がさないで
強く強く抱き締めても
するりするり手にした自信が零れてしまう
それでも光は時々雨に触れて虹を映して僕を照らした
だから今は Stand By You

壊れた者だけが持つ強さを
君に繋いであげるよ　今が鮮やかだろう
Stand By You...
Stand By You

中文歌詞 / Chinese Lyrics :
我早已失去曾擁有的所有事物
「不要離開我、留在我身邊，我會珍惜並擁抱現在的。」

受變色龍般偽裝欺騙而受傷的我，已經不會再失去、或被奪去任何東西了
策畫逃離不安的逃脫計畫，但我能夠隱藏，因陌生步伐而扭曲面貌的我嗎？

哀嘆孤獨的人、嘲笑挫折的人、厭惡扭曲的人
不論是誰我可都不會感到害怕，就用當下所看見的真實來彌補過去吧

我早已失去了所有事物
未來仍將漸漸改變色彩，鮮豔地鑲在一個又一個的生動明日
「這次不要再離開我了。」我會緊緊抓住珍惜，並擁抱現在所有

即便來自他人的回應，早已層層排列積累，也僅令人無能為力
來自某人的吶喊，早已堆積滿溢，心中強烈渴望尋求著愛

即使，嘗試尋回失去已久的種種
仍會感到害怕、停下腳步，獨自默默哭泣
但別讓自己逐漸浮現的輪廓就這麼淡淡消逝
無論如何也要用力地、緊緊擁抱守護——
對於終有一日將鬆開的那雙手，手中握有的自信也悄悄流逝
就算如此，仍有溫暖的和煦光芒照入連綿陰雨，向我展現孕育而生的絢麗虹彩
所以現在「我仍會陪在你身邊。」

我會用只有受過傷害才能持有的堅強
尋找並傳遞給你，這份正炫彩奪目的鮮麗力量
「隨時與這份勇氣，伴在你的身旁。」
「我會，陪伴在你的身邊。」

英文歌詞 / English Lyrics :
The things I’ve lost
Don’t let go, hold on tight, and embrace the moment now

The me that is deceived and is broken by the Chameleon
already has nothing to lose
and has nothing that can be snatched away
So I discard my anxiety and run away
Will I be able to hide my face
that is distorted by the speed I am unaccustomed to?

A person who laments loneliness
A person who laughs at failure
A person who hates perverseness
No one is afraid, because the reality visible from now on is
merely a consequence of what happened in the past

The things I’ve lost:
the vividness embedded in
a future with its gradually-changing colours
Don’t let go, hold on tight to that
There is nothing else to do now, but to embrace the moment

Even if someone’s answers are lined up so abundantly
Even if someone’s screams are searching for love so desperately

Even if you are to discover the many things you have lost
even if you become afraid,
even if you are stopped,
even if you cry
don’t let go of the silhouette of the person that emerges

Even when I try to embrace the confidence
I’ve just obtained so, so tightly,
it still escapes my grasp so smoothly and speedily.
But even so, the light that touches the rain is sometimes reflected as rainbow – which illuminates me
That’s why now I stand by you

I am passing on the strength that is owned only by a broken person to you
It will surely be vibrant now

繼 2018 年金音獎入圍的《炮打司令部》後，中文嘻哈界絕無僅有的共產主義饒舌歌手鍾翔宇與英國製作人 Ransom-Notes 馬不停蹄地聯手炮製出六首歌的新專輯《星星之火》，相較於上張專輯還有如〈保力達B〉、〈偶像的手冊〉等比較詼諧幽默的歌曲，這張專輯顯得更加嚴肅而深入的闡述自己的意識形態。

即使如此，這張專輯並沒有流於自我重複的說教，而是透過自己在美國成長過程親眼目睹的（台灣媒體跟好萊塢電影不告訴你的）具體事實，鍾翔宇戳破所謂的「美國夢」，一層一層爬梳嘻哈音樂如何失去最初的反抗精神、分析爭取勞動權益的困境甚至環保議題。很難想像這麼龐大的知識量被鍾翔宇精巧的放在一張不到 20 分鐘的專輯當中，這樣大膽的嘗試絕對值得你靜下心搭配歌詞細細玩味。搭配 Ransom-Notes 充滿黃金年代風格的編曲，讓嚴肅的歌詞不再難以下嚥。而鍾翔宇精心設計的多韻和不時的好笑 punchline，也展現他想讓歌曲直面普羅大眾的誠意。

批判美國的霸權和當今的社會經濟制度等於動搖了非常多人的基本信念，鍾翔宇也深知這一點。然而看到不公不義的事實而站出來發聲，這是讓鍾翔宇之所以愛上嘻哈的浪漫初衷。《星星之火》這張專輯就如同他的偶像，英國嘻哈詩人 Lowkey 的 “Soundtrack to the Struggle” 一樣，是貨真價實的革命之聲，所有真心想衝破世界當今所面對的困境的人，肯定能從鍾翔宇的音樂中得到啟發。


Shortly after his 2018 album "Bombard the Headquarters" was nominated best hip hop album by the Golden Indie Music Awards, Xiangyu, one of the few openly communist rappers in the Sinosphere, together with his comrade Ransom-Notes from the UK, began working on "a Single Spark." In comparison to his previous album, which contains comedic songs like "Paolyta B" and "the Idol's Handbook," "a Single Spark" takes on a more serious tone and delves deeper into Xiangyu's ideology.

Despite the comparatively somber tone, this new album avoids repetitive preaching. Through sharing his personal experiences and the things he saw growing up in the United States, Xiangyu debunks the so-called "American Dream." Using materialist dialectics, he tells us how hip hop has lost its rebellious essence, and also analyzes power dynamics and touches on topics such as the environment. It is difficult to imagine how Xiangyu and Ransom-Notes were able to condense such a vast expanse of knowledge into an album less than 20 minutes in length. You will not be disappointed should you decide to sit down and listen to such a bold album while studying the lyrics. Reminiscent of hip hop's golden age, Ransom-Notes' beatmaking provides the listener with the sugar that makes the pill easier to swallow. Xiangyu's carefully constructed rhymes and the occasional humorous punch line demonstrate his sincere attempt to make his agitprop more accessible to the layperson.

Criticizing US hegemony and the socioeconomic order of today is tantamount to shattering the fundamental beliefs of many, and Xiangyu is acutely aware of this. The fact that hip hop can serve as a platform for pointing out injustices is what attracted Xiangyu to the genre in the first place. "A Single Spark" is similar to "Soundtrack to the Struggle" by Lowkey, one of Xiangyu's influences, in the sense that it is truly revolutionary in content. Those who genuinely seek to transform the predicaments plaguing our world today will certainly find inspiration in Xiangyu's music.
