God & Traders

A thought suddenly came into my mind - Substitute the word "God" with "Market" in any passage, and most likely the passage will still make sense.

Life. Diablo.

Life is just like Diablo. You level up. Earn gold. Buy stuff. Have fun. Until one day you reach Inferno and realize that life sucks.

...

Well, not really sucks, but it makes u realize what are the 3 most important things in life.

Gold, Luck, and Companion.

After a week of intensive emotional outbursts, I feel like going into the forest and meditate for seven seven forty-nine days.

Life.

Do you find that your life is very hard?

Fighting for your existence everyday.

Another colleague disappeared today. Just a simple handshake and "All the best", and then,

He was gone.

As another colleague love to say,

"FUCK MY LIFE!"

Lol!

Mine is a cruel world. Will continue to fight.

Fighting makes you feel alive.

歌曲:水手
词曲:郑智化

苦涩的沙吹痛脸庞的感觉
像父亲的责骂母亲的哭泣
永远难忘记
年少的我喜欢一个人在海边
卷起裤管光着脚丫踩在沙滩上
总是幻想海洋的尽头有另一个世界
总是以为勇敢的水手是真正的男儿
总是一副弱不禁风孬种的样子
在受人欺负的时候总是听见水手说
他说风雨中这点痛算什么
擦干泪不要怕至少我们还有梦
他说风雨中这点痛算什么
擦干泪不要问为什么

长大以后为了理想而努力
渐渐的忽略了父亲母亲和
故乡的消息
如今的我生活就像在演戏
说着言不由衷的话戴着伪善的面具
总是拿着微不足道的成就来骗自己
总是莫名其妙到一阵的空虚
总是靠一点酒精的麻醉才能够睡去
在半睡半醒之间仿佛又听见水手说
他说风雨中这点痛算什么
擦干泪不要怕至少我们还有梦
他说风雨中这点痛算什么
擦干泪不要问为什么

寻寻觅觅寻不到活着的证据
都市的柏油路太硬踩不出足迹
骄傲无知的现代人不知道珍惜
那一片被文明糟踏过的海洋和天地
只有远离人群才能找回我自己
在带着咸味的空气中自由的呼吸
耳畔又传来汽笛声和水手的笑语
永远在内心的最深处听见水手说
他说风雨中这点痛算什么
擦干泪不要怕至少我们还有梦
他说风雨中这点痛算什么
擦干泪不要问为什么
