God

God is my best friend,
 he does not hate me, he does not hurt me, he love me, he encourage me, he help me, he is my best counsel, he is always there with me everyday.

Jesus is my Savior and my Lord; He is also my special Best Friend! Perhaps you are thinking, "Why do you say that Jesus is your special Best Friend?" I was hoping that you would ask that question! Let me tell you why He is my special Best Friend.

Jesus is my special Best Friend because He knows me better than anyone else. He is God, and He knows all about me. He even knows my thoughts!

I am very important to Jesus! I may not be important to some people, but Jesus really cares for me. He even knows how many hairs I have on my head. He has them all numbered! He said, "...the very hairs of your head are all numbered" (Matthew 10:30).

A best friend is one who loves you just the way you are, and yet helps you to be all you can be. Jesus is my special Best Friend because no one has ever loved me as He does. He loved me so much that He gave His life for me. And He loves me today just as much as He did then. Jesus said, "Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends"(John 15:13).

The Lord Jesus loves me just the way I am, but He loves me too much to leave me the way I am. He is living in me and He is making me more like Himself day-by-day. He knows about my faults, but He loves me, and He will never take His love away from me.

Jesus is my special Best Friend because He wants only what is best for me. He will guide me in making decisions if I will ask for His help and trust Him.

In His Word, the Bible, the Lord Jesus tells me the things I should do, like obeying my parents and teachers. He also tells me things I should not do, like telling lies and saying hurtful things to others.

What about things that are not mentioned in the Bible? In this case I should ask, "Would Jesus like to see me do this?" If I think that He would not like to see me do it, I must NOT do it!

by Amanda Rawlings

A third-grade teacher gave her class an assignment to write a report about a "special person." Amanda wanted to tell her classmates about Jesus, so she chose Jesus as her "special person." She was able to read her report to the class. Here is what Amanda wrote:

He is special because He is God's Son Jesus. He is special because He is always there when I need Him.

I talk to Him a lot. My special Person is nice and forgiving. He came to be special to me when I went to church and learned about Him.

I felt even more love for Him when I read my Bible in my room. I chose Jesus as my special Person because He is the most important Person in my life.

I always put Him first in my life. I always trust Him to lead my path. If I am ever in trouble, He can always help me.

I really love Him and He loves me even more. I cannot imagine ever living without Him. I never go to bed alone, I never am alone because Jesus is always there.

Have you ever felt like you are alone? Have you ever been afraid? You don't have to be afraid and you don't have to feel alone because Jesus is always there. He is truly my special Best Friend!

Jesus is my special Best Friend because He always has time for me. I can talk to Him at any time. I can talk to Him in any place. No one cares for me like Jesus. He wants me to come to Him about everything that concerns me.

Jesus is my special Best Friend because He is always the same. In the past I have had friends, and somehow they changed and we were no longer friends. But Jesus never changes! The Bible says, "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever" (Hebrews 13:8).

The Lord Jesus is always the same wonderful Person who loves me with all His heart. He is always there to listen to me, to help me, to encourage me. He is truly the best Friend I could ever have.

Jesus and I are "Best Friends forever," but I must never forget who He is. He is my Savior, My Lord, and my God, and I treat Him with respect and reverence. I do not call Him "the Man upstairs."

Being a child of God is the most wonderful thing in all the world, but let me tell you a secret: Your life here on earth as a child of God will not always be easy. Jesus said,

"In the world you shall have tribulation [many troubles]; but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world" (John 16:33).

I will have many trials and troubles as I travel to my home in Heaven, but I do not need to be afraid. The Lord wants me to remember three things:

Jesus is always for me

Jesus has all power in Heaven and in the earth, and He is always for His believers. Every moment, there on the throne, He is thinking about me. He wants me to tell Him everything that concerns me. He wants me to bring all my problems and burdens to Him. He wants me to tell Him all that is on my heart.

Jesus is always with me

The Lord Jesus Himself is in Heaven, seated at the right hand of God the Father, but He also lives in the hearts of His believers by His Spirit. The apostle Paul said,"Christ lives in me!" You and I can say this too. Jesus promised that He will never leave us. He said, "I will never leave you, nor forsake you" (Hebrews 13:5b).

Since Jesus is always with me, I must ask myself some questions: Is the Lord Jesus pleased when I am around those who are using bad language? No, He is not.

Is Jesus pleased when I am watching a TV show or movie with bad stuff in it? No, He is not. Does Jesus enjoy listening to music that has dirty words in it? No, He does not.

This means that I must not hang around those who use bad language. I must not watch bad stuff, and I must not listen to music with dirty words.

Wherever I go, the Lord Jesus goes with me. Whatever I watch, the Lord Jesus watches it with me. Whatever I listen to, the Lord Jesus listens to it also. If I truly love the Lord Jesus, I will not want to do anything that displeases Him.

I can always enjoy Jesus

Jesus is not a "force"; He is a Person! He wants me to love and appreciate Him. He wants me to enjoy Him, the way best friends enjoy each other.

The way to enjoy a person is to love that person. The more you love Jesus, the more you will enjoy Him. When you fall in love with Jesus, you will be a happy child of God.

The Lord Jesus is the most wonderful Person in all the universe. God tells me to rejoice in Him—who He is and what He has done for me. No matter what happens, I can always rejoice in Him. The Bible says, "Rejoice in the Lord always..." (1 Thessalonians 4:4).

甲状腺功能亢进 - 治疗方法

甲亢的治疗旨在抑制甲状腺激素的合成和释放，或者减少或破坏甲状腺组织，阻断了激素的分泌。Graves病的治疗也要考虑调整机体的免疫功能。
1.一般治疗
诊断后在甲亢病情尚未得到控制时，尽可能取得病人的充分理解和密切合作，合理安排饮食，需要高热量高蛋白质高维生素和低碘的饮食；精神要放松;适当休息，避免重体力活动，是必需的、不可忽视的。
2.药物治疗
硫脲嘧啶类药物，这是我国和世界不少国家目前治疗甲亢主要采取的治疗方法。本治疗方法的特点：为口服用药，容易被病人接受；治疗后不会引起不可逆的损伤；但用药疗程长，需要定期随查；复发率较高。即便是合理规则用药，治后仍有20%以上的复发率。
硫脲嘧啶类药物的品种：临床选用顺序常为，甲硫咪唑(他巴唑，MMI)、丙基硫氧嘧啶(PTU) 、卡比吗唑(甲亢平)和甲基硫氧嘧啶。PTU和甲基硫氧嘧啶药效较其它小10倍，使用时应剂量大10倍。
药物选择：不同地区不同医生之间依据其习惯和经验有其不同的选择。在美国常选用PTU，而在欧洲首选MMI的更多。在我国，选用PTU和MMI都不少，选用前者考虑其可减少循环中的T4转换为T3，孕妇使用更为安全，而选用后者则认为该药副作用更小，对甲状腺激素的合成具有较长时间的抑制作用，有经验显示该药每日给药1次即可，病人的依从性较好。
辅助药物：普萘洛尔（心得安），碘剂以及甲状腺制剂的使用。
3.手术治疗
药物治疗后的甲状腺次全切除，效果良好，治愈率达到90%以上，但有一定并发症的发生机率。
4.放射性碘治疗
此法安全，方便，治愈率达到85%-90%，复发率低，在近年来越来越多的国家开始采用此种方法治疗甲亢。治疗后症状消失较慢，约10%的病患永久的发生甲状腺功能减退。这是安全的治疗，全世界采用此种治疗方法的几十年中，对选用的患者尚未发现甲状腺癌和白血病比未选用者有增多。
5.传统中医治疗——甲亢平复汤
传统的中医中药甲亢平复汤及针灸疗法对一些甲亢也有较好的效果。由于医家对病情认识的辨证不同，各家采用的治法也有差别，疗效也不相同。对用硫脲嘧啶类药治疗有明显血象改变的甲亢病人，也可选用传统中医中药甲亢平复汤治疗。^[1]

甲状腺功能亢进 - 疾病预防

甲亢是一种自身免疫性疾病，但其发病机理尚未完全阐明。研究认为本病是在遗传的基础上，有应激因素的参与而发病，但遗传的方式尚不能肯定。鉴此，目前尚未找到预防本病的有效药物或其他方法。虽然对本病的发病机理了解的还不十分清楚，但对能诱发本病的各种应激因素则认识比较一致，因此，预防本病的发生，在现阶段主要应从避免应激因素着手，以期预防本病的发生。常见的应激因素主要有：

(1)感染：包括细菌感染与病毒感染所致的某些疾病。

(2)长期的精神创伤或强烈的精神刺激，如忧虑、悲哀、惊恐、紧张等。

(3)少数病人的发病与过度疲劳、外伤、妊娠、摄入过多的含碘食物如：海带、海鱼、海蜇皮及含碘药物如胺碘酮、复方碘液、碘化锌、含碘中药等有关。

人生活在大自然界之中，四时岁序的变迁，寒暑往来，工作环境、生活环境中的不良刺激因子时刻对人体都会带来一定的影响，由于人的自我调控机能的不断调控，因此大多数人是能够健康生活的。但当人的调控机能失常，加之不良因素的刺激，将会导致本病的发生。

客观地讲，不良刺激因素是难以预料的，预防甲亢的发生难度也是很大的。但只要做到饮食有节、起居有常、不妄作劳、恬淡虚无(无私寡欲、心情舒畅、精神愉快)、顺应自然规律，加之适当的体育锻炼，不仅能增强机体的免疫功能，而且对预防甲亢的发生也有一定的积极意义。

甲状腺功能亢进 - 是否遗传

甲亢病确实与遗传有一定的关系，临床上的甲亢病患者，大多是有家族性的，患甲亢病的母亲，其子女的甲状腺对甲高亢病原体的易感性就较其他人高，虽然他们对甲亢病的易感性较高，但不是每个人都会患甲亢病，得有另外两种因素的参与，才会患甲亢病，一是接触到了甲亢病原体，还有一种就是因过度疲劳或精神因素等原因，使自身抗病力下降，这三种因素叠加到一起就可引发甲亢病。

甲亢系指由多种原因导致甲状腺功能增强，分泌甲状腺激素(TH)过多，造成机体的神经、循环及消化等系统兴奋性增高和代谢亢进为主要表现的临床综合征。

甲亢通常是指功能亢进性毒性弥漫性甲状腺肿Graves病而言，临床上最多见。免疫学说认为甲亢是一种自身免疫性疾病，近代研究证明：本病是在遗传的基础上，因感染、精神创伤等应激因素而诱发，属于抑制性T淋巴细胞功能缺陷所致的一种器官特异性自身免疫病，与自身免疫性甲状腺炎等同属自身免疫性甲状腺疾病。曾有调查表明，60%的患者有家族素质倾向。

人体的免疫系统包括细胞免疫和体液免疫，正是由于这些免疫系统的存在，才能保护机体不受自然界各种因素的损害。自身免疫是指机体对自身组织成分或细菌抗原失去免疫耐受性，导致免疫效应细胞或自身抗体的产生，并造成自身损害的过程。自身免疫在许多情况下是生理性的，除了防御自然界的损害外，还有机体内部的监视功能，能保护正常组织细胞，清除衰老和突变的细胞，当自身免疫反应超过了生理限度或持续时间过长，造成自身组织的损伤和功能障碍而导致疾病时，则称为自身免疫性疾病。此种病变有的属全身的，有的则仅涉及某些器官，而甲亢则属于后者——器官特异性自身免疫病。

各种类型的甲亢中以毒性弥漫性甲状腺肿Graves病的遗传倾向最为明显，而其它类型的甲亢一般认为与遗传无明显的关系。毒性弥漫性甲状腺肿患者的家族成员患此病机会明显增加。

人类白细胞抗原是遗传的标记，有不少研究发现毒性弥漫性甲状腺肿患者的某一种或几种人类白细胞抗原明显增加，进一步说明本病与遗传有着密切的关系。

甲状腺功能亢进 - 营养健康

甲状腺功能亢进

1、禁食乳制品至少3个月。禁用咖啡、茶、尼古丁和刺激性饮料食品。
2、甲亢患者可常吃花生、苏子等具有抑制甲状腺素合成的食物。火盛者可用西瓜、菜豆、芹菜、金针菜等凉性食物。阴虚者可用有滋阴功能的食物，如木耳、桑椹、甲鱼、鸭等。脾虚者可用健脾止泻的食物，如山药、芡实、苹果、大枣、芥菜等。
3、多吃含钾高的食物，也应食用富含钙和磷的食物。
4、患者除要忌用含碘高的食物外，饮食中还要忌温热、辛燥的食物，如辣椒、桂皮、生姜、羊肉等。还有浓茶、咖啡等。
5、限制食物纤维，应少吃糠麸、卷心菜、苹果、胡萝卜等含食物纤维多的食物。甲亢患者常伴有排便次数增多或腹泻的症状。    1

甲状腺功能亢进 - 预防甲亢

1.按时用药：遵从医嘱，按时、按量服药，不可随意停药或改变药物剂量，需要减量或增加药量及其它药物时应征得医生的同意，以免引起意外发生。
2.调畅情志：精神刺激是本病发生的常见诱因，常因忧虑、情绪不安、精神紧张而症状加重。因此，甲亢病人要注意调畅情志，修身养性，要遇事不怒，静心休养，常听优美   动听的音乐，养成种花、养鱼、养鸟等习惯，以怡情养性，安静神志，逐渐消除精神症状。家人及同事也要同情安慰、理解关心，避免直接冲突。

HYPERTHYROIDISM DIET PLAN

Hyperthyroidism, sometimes referred to as thyrotoxicosis or Graves' disease, is a disorder of the thyroid gland that results in an overproduction of thyroid hormones in the body. According to Phyllis Balch in her book "Prescription for Nutritional Healing," too many thyroid hormones leads to an overactive metabolic state and all of the body's processes speed up as a result. Symptoms that commonly ensue include irritability, nervousness, increased sweat, insomnia, fatigue, feeling overheated or intolerant to heat, constipation, weakness, hair loss, rapid heartbeat, infrequent menstruation, decreased menstrual flow, hand tremors and, in some extreme cases, protruding eyeballs. If you suspect that you may have hyperthyroidism, talk to your health-care practitioner for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

REDUCE OR ELIMINATE IODINE
According to the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition, or CSNN, a high stress lifestyle and excess iodine intake can both contribute to hyperthyroidism. CSNN encourages daily stress management techniques and recommends avoiding foods that are high in iodine such as salt, kelp, seaweed, seafood and vegetables grown near the ocean. CSNN says that iodine stimulates the production of thyroid hormones in the body, which can ultimately lead to hyperthyroidism. Ensure that any supplements you may be taking do not contain iodine.

CONSUME THYROID SUPPRESSING FOODS AND AVOID STIMULANTS
Certain foods are thought to naturally suppress the production of thyroid hormones, and Balch recommends consuming plenty of them. These foods include sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, kale, mustard greens, peaches, rutabagas, soybeans, spinach and turnips. Balch also recommends avoiding stimulants such as nicotine, tea, refined sugar, coffee, cocoa, soft drinks and all other sources of caffeine. She says that the body is already overstimulated in individuals with hyperthyroidism and consuming these substances will only aggravate symptoms.

EAT OFTEN AND CONSUME COLD-WATER FISH
CSNN recommends consuming six small meals a day and not going longer than three hours without eating to compensate for an increased metabolism. In addition, the consumption of cold-water fish or a fish oil supplement containing 1 to 2g of combined EPA and DHA is encouraged because these essential fatty acids are required for the proper functioning of the thyroid gland.

EAT WHOLE, UNPROCESSED FOODS
Malabsorption and depletion of nutrients is common with hyperthyroidism, and it is therefore extremely important that you eat a healthy, well-balanced, whole foods diet to prevent nutrient deficiencies, says Balch. Processed and refined foods should be eliminated because most have few nutrients, and their consumption puts an increased strain on your body. Also, CSNN recommends taking a bone health formula with calcium in it because excess thyroid hormones depletes mineral stores and may increase the risk for osteoporosis.

LOAD UP ON ANTIOXIDANTS
Finally, high levels of thyroid hormones have been correlated with free-radical damage to the body's tissues, and antioxidant-rich nutrients such as vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium and beta carotene are needed to counteract this damage. CSNN recommends eating a diet that is high in fruits and vegetables and taking a mixed antioxidant formula supplement to provide these antioxidant nutrients.

4 ways to recover from an intense workout

Imagine if you did a thousand pushups in an hour? Would you be stronger at the beginning of those thousand pushups or at the end?

Quite clearly, you would be completely wiped out after the thousand pushups, and would only receive the benefits of the exercise after you had recovered from the training.

That is why when a new personal training or fitness bootcamp client at Genesis Gym asks me "how many times should I train" my answer is that it depends on what you can recover from.

More training is, in general, better since it means you can progress further. But more is not better if your exercise program is an added burden above and beyond the usual stresses of work, family, social commitments and environmental pollutants. A person under such a stress load needs to train a little "less" and focus more on recovery.

So, here are 4 things you can do to help your body recover from a hard workout. Please note, that hard, intense workouts are those which you put lots of effort into i.e. a hard run, or strength training workout. Reading a magazine for 10 minutes while pedaling on a stationary bike does not count.

1. Take in good nutrients in adequate quantities
These include:

Protein at about 2g per kg of body weight per day. For most men it means about 6 palm size servings per day, and for ladies, 3-4 servings. Trying to recover from exercise without protein is like trying to build a house without bricks. It is just not going to happen.

Carbohydrates after training, which refuel muscles and helps lower stress hormones post-workout. A good choice is ripe bananas with brown spots on their skin (they have less fructose and more glucose), rice, potatoes, yams, sweet potatoes. Bad choices are artificially sweetened drinks and processed pastries and snacks. The only exceptions for this "carbohydrates" suggestion are those who are close to diabetes, or are very overweight. Just stick to protein post workout then.

2. Manage physical stress levels
The critical ingredient for this is sleep, and achieving good sleep quality. Sleep is probably the most under-used recovery method out there. Check out my sleep article for some tips.

Natural nutrients that can aid sleep and manage stress include - Magnesium, phosphatidyl serene, valarian root from herbs or in tea form, inositol, taurine and glycine. Ask your health care provider to suggest dosages for you. The good thing about these nutrients is that they are non-addictive and you wake up with a refreshed feeling rather than the "oh, somebody just punched me" feeling of a hangover, or a sleeping pill.

Other physical stress management methods include - sauna, stretching (hold each position for 30 sec), massage of any kind, and sunlight exposure (which has emotional benefits too!).


3. Manage emotional and environmental stress levels
Stress is a "total" body response. Your body does not care if its from the recent "haze" causing pollutants to enter your nose, or of its from a stressful project deadline or nagging boss. The response of your body is quite similar.

So you need to manage these stresses by doing your best to negate them or remove yourself from them. Water filtration and using non toxic personal care products is a good start.

In addition, family time, service to others and your community, prayer, writing a journal, and having positive relationships with people around you are good choices for lowering emotional stress.

4. Plan your training properly
Nobody, not even the most gifted olympian, can train super hard, super long, all the time. The body needs time to recover to be at its best. In a month, our clients often do some weeks with more/harder training, and some weeks with less/easier training to help avoid injury and increase the speed of progress.

A sample month would be:
Week 1: Light training - get used to a new workout, learn new exercises etc
Week 2: Medium training - increase milage/number of sets/speed/total weight lifted etc...
Week 3: Hard training - all out effort, train till you push your limits, try to break your previous records
Week 4: Medium training - similar to week 2
Repeat week 1.

There are many ways to adjust training, but the above sample is a simple one that keeps most people motivated and injury free.

There we have it 4 ways to recover well, stay strong, lean, healthy and injury free!

Stock

1. STI = Master
2. 8MA & 14MA = Trade - Main Focus
3. MA
    2/8
    8/14

overall uptrend, in between has up or down, stay calm

Down is good - up happy, down happy
Don't fear down trend, when down = win big
Buy $1, down to $0.90

8/14MA cross = Buyback at $0.45 at double qty
When it go up to $0.55, overall loss because profits
Increase the qty = increase the total dividend

Dividend Strategy
Buy one month before dividend payout, sell one day before ex-date
example:
CCT one quarter dividend = $40
by one month period
yearly payout become 16%


Guppy
Long term line  = widen = supply less, demand more
Red line widen = long term not selling
Blue line join together = to buy

Up widen = up trend stopping
Down trend widen = down trend stopping soon

Forex is also a form of Gamble,
do it carefully,
set target discipline is a must,
follow gamble rule,
set fixed contract per day, per trade
Make big, lose small, (2 to 1, lost $10 and make $20)
when target is met, close it, no greedy

1, Daily  = Master guide

1.the steepness = the strength of the movement
2. steepness not sharp, dont expect big movement

自尊自爱

一个人希望得到他人的尊重和关爱，就必须首先学会自己爱自己，自己尊重自己，自尊自爱，方能受人尊重。自爱，就是在日常的生活之中要爱惜自己，接受真实的自己，喜欢真实的自己，在适当的时候懂得理解自己，宽容自己。自尊，就是自己要尊重自己，自己要维护自己的尊严和人格。自己相信自己，从而遇事不轻易放弃，不轻易退缩。

HOW TO LIVE IN THE PRESENT

What does it mean to live fully in the present moment? It means that your awareness is completely centered on the here and now. You are not worrying about the future or thinking about the past. When you live in the present, you are living where life is happening. The past and future are illusions, they don’t exist. As the saying goes “tomorrow never comes”. Tomorrow is only a concept, tomorrow is always waiting to come around the corner, but around that corner are shadows, never to have light shed upon, because time is always now.

“The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.” – Buddha

Why living in the present will change your life.

If you’re not living in the present, you’re living in illusion. That seems to a be a pretty good reason to live in the present, doesn’t it? But how often are we worrying about things that have yet to come, how often do we beat ourselves up for mistakes that we’ve made, no matter how much time has passed? The answer is too much. Not only will living in the present have a dramatic effect on your emotional well-being, but it can also impact your physical health. It’s long been known that the amount of mental stress you carry can have a detrimental impact on your health. If you’re living in the present, you’re living in acceptance. You’re accepting life as it is now, not as how you wish it would have been. When you’re living in acceptance, you realize everything is complete as it is. You can forgive yourself for the mistakes you’ve made, and you can have peace in your heart knowing that everything that should happen will.

“If you worry about what might be, and wonder what might have been, you will ignore what is.” -Unknown

Start living, stop conceptualizing.

The worst part about living in the past or the future is that you’re giving up your personal power. If you’re not living now, you’re giving up your life. You’re surrendering your power to create. If there are changes you’d like to make in life, it’s best to do it now. If you’re living in the past, you can’t do anything about it, it’s gone. If you’re worrying about the future, you’re living somewhere that doesn’t exist. It hasn’t happened yet. If you want to change your life, the only place you can do it is in the present. But first you need to accept life as it is. When it comes down to it your mind is the only thing keeping you from living in the present.

“There is no distance on this earth as far away as yesterday.” ~Robert Nathan

Why is it difficult to live in the present?

There are many people that can give you their opinion or their advice on why it is difficult to live in the present. Some will say it is because we live in abstraction, we live in the world of symbols. Some might say it is because we have awareness of the passage of time, or the illusion of time, it produces anxiety because we can look at the past and predict the future. I think all of these answers are partially true. Though the biggest reason we don’t live in the present is because we don’tshut up. That is, we constantly talk to ourselves. As Alan Watts aptly put it, “if we are talking all of the time, we never hear what anyone else has to say. In the same way, if we are talking to ourselves all the time, we are never listening, we have nothing to think about other than thoughts, and are never in relationship with reality”.

As humans, we love to create stories. We love to listen to other people stories and compare them with our own. This is beautiful. In a way we could say that the entire universe is based on one collection of stories, a cosmic story. The problem is when we feel the need to create a story about everything, we are living entirely in the world of symbols. We confuse the world as it is, with the way we think about it, talk about it and describe it. Reality though, is not a concept. When we realize this we are able to return to a state of peace and stillness.

A new way, 5 ways to start living in the present:

In order for us to live in the present, does this mean we have to give up our innate desire to write our personal story and share it with others? No, we shouldn’t trade one extreme for another. What we really want, is to find balance. If you follow these simple tips you can start living in the present, and start experiencing reality as it is.

1. Don’t try to quiet your mind

The hardest thing to do when living in the moment is, or trying to simply witness life, is to not have the urge to try to quiet your mind. When we try to quiet the mind, we just disturb it all the more. Instead, simply witness your thoughts as if they are pure sound. Don’t try to judge your thoughts, there are no good thoughts or bad thoughts. Simply witness them as if they were noise.

2. You are not your thoughts

Too often we identify ourselves with our thoughts, we actually believe we are the dialogue inside our mind. However, we are much more than just our thoughts, we are the force that moves through our mind, spirit and body. Knowing this helps us overcome our fear of quietness and silence, we can have peace knowing that when our minds are quiet, we are not losing touch with ourselves.

3. Breathe, you’re alive

For a moment I’d like you to stop reading and simply pay attention to your breath. I’ll wait…

As you focus your attention on your breath, you’ll notice that your breath is neither voluntary or involuntary. It is something that you do, but at the same time something that “does you”. When you focus your attention on your breath, you come back into relationship with reality, because like breath, reality is both something you do and something that “does you”. It is co-creative. Practice conscious breathing to bring your mind back to the present.

4. Music for meditation

There is a lot of great music made to assist with meditation. My personal favorite though is Stan Richardson’s Japanese flute music. Every time I play it I can feel it’s peaceful energy wash over me. Music made for meditation can help us bring our attention back to the present and clear our mind.

5. Practice mindfulness

This isn’t so much of a tip as it is a staple in living in the present. Practicing mindfulness means we practice our awareness in all our actions. Whether we are washing dishes or tying our shoes, our mind is focused on whatever we are doing. We are not thinking about the bills that we have to pay, or the phone call we need to make when we get to the office. We are simply living in the moment.

I hope you enjoyed this article. If you have any more tips or insight into how to improve mindfulness and awareness of the present, please leave your comment below. Thank you for reading!

黎智英：年輕人最需要的不是夢

不要為發夢而發夢，說穿了，重點是不要逃避現實的困難。今期的《事實與偏見》好看，因為一個愛發夢的人親自勸您不要墮進發白日夢的人生迷宮。黎智英認為年輕人最需要的不是夢，而是自愛和自信。我想問問他，如果不是夢想，那又是什麼在背後推動他一路以來的工作？

我是個愛鳥雀的人。我愛看鳥兒展翅飛翔的靈活美姿，我愛看鳥兒鮮艷奪目羽毛的光彩，愛看牠們走路時仰首挺胸傲視同儕的傲氣，而我最愛鳥兒的是牠們擁有那無邊無際、天地任我行的自由。
小時候家道中落，家裡常常像是被一重重悶悶的陰霾籠罩那樣。時局的烽煙把家裡的大人弄得焦頭爛額，要四處流竄躲藏；好些時候家裡只剩下我們幾個小孩子。家徒四壁，牆上所見，是愁眉苦臉的大人投射的陰影。

在這樣的時候我愛坐在窗前，呆望在藍天白雲中飛翔的鳥兒，讓牠們把我心中的鬱悶帶上靈空中飄逸。在那樣的時候我會幻想自己是隻靈鳥，隨着輕風飛到天邊坐在雲端的彩霞上，瞰視腳底烽火燎原的瘋狂世界，盡情狂笑。發這樣的白日夢是我逃避那困悶壓迫時空的唯一方法。那個時候我還是個未受信仰感召的小孩，發白日夢是神靈給我的救贖。
每隔一兩天二叔婆便會來看我們這幾個小孩子一趟。未「解放」她是我們的傭人，自小便在我們家裡幫手照料小孩子。二叔婆跟我們的感情非常好，可是「解放」後她被迫離開我們，到別處工作。
看到我們沒人照顧很是痛心，一有空她便帶點食物來給我們吃；不是幾條鹹肉糉，便是炒糯米飯捲成的飯團或用暖水壺盛着的有味飯；都是一些耐餓飽肚的東西，她就是怕我們會餓壞。每一趟她又都給我們洗澡、洗衣服及打點好家務才離去。

每次見到我呆坐窗前眺望着天邊發白日夢，她都會走到我身邊柔聲說：「亞 D，你又在發夢喇，唔怕，趁細個發晒啲夢，到肚餓你就會識得夢醒 o架啦！」見到她來了，我當然馬上夢醒，因為我知道她一定會為我們帶來好吃的東西。那個時候我常常飢腸轆轆，她那句「肚餓你就會識得夢醒 o架啦！」從此深深烙在我心頭上。
我們圍着她吃東西時，她會對我說：「亞 D，到你大個仔就唔好再發夢喇，讀好書、練好功夫就出去闖世界，如果只係識得等夢境成真，咁就一世渾渾噩噩 o架啦！」二叔婆是第一個提醒我發夢害處的人。
後來我到了香港，認識一個家境不錯、穿著打扮得官仔骨骨看來一表人才的先生，他令我想起二叔婆那句「肚餓你就會識得夢醒 o架啦！」的說話。那位先生從來都不用捱餓，因而永遠都在發夢，一生渾渾噩噩。後來他自圓其說的話說得多了，更令人愈來愈討厭他。
他是台山人，家裡的錢都是早年叔伯賣豬仔到美國做苦工寄回來的。美國寄回來的錢養大了他，故此他一直以為美國遍地黃金，而去得到美國便必定大把世界。他憧憬到了美國會賺到盆滿鉢滿，有車有洋樓養番狗；他常常把這個夢掛在嘴唇邊。

不是嗎？他的叔伯都一腳牛屎，可是一到了美國便賺到這麼多錢。他讀飽書，要是他去到美國，那又還得了？他申請去美國，一直在等候批核。反正一到了美國便會發達，他對什麼工作都無心戀戰，沒有一份工作做得長，以致一事無成，而內心也變得愈來愈自卑。
可是為了在人前爭一口氣，他逢人便說到美國的夢想。聽的人都知道他在吹牛，聽得多了也就愈來愈討厭他。我最後一趟見他，他已四十多歲了，可是他仍在講去美國的千秋大夢。這個夢真的拖累了他大半生。不，四十多歲了，他從未做過一份長工，也沒有學到一門手藝，他的美國夢誤盡他的一生。
終日發夢的人，有多少會有這個台山朋友的悲慘下場，不少吧？因此二叔婆常常提醒我：「亞 D，大個仔就唔好再發夢喇！」我也算幸運，我時常捱餓，一肚餓我便回到現實，「肚餓你就識得夢醒 o架啦！」這句話真的一點不錯。
當我們將理論當成現實，我們就像為自己設下一道專門用來逃避現實的斜坡，而這道斜坡更還鋪上了潤滑劑，讓我們輕易便滑進人生的迷宮。理論比實際環境抽象，現實卻是知和行的結合，人生更是行動和經驗的歷程。

人有血有肉。人生無常，而生活則是個喜怒哀樂的歷程。理論從來都是一大堆無關痛癢的假設，而非事實的本身；理論既不包涵人生的變化，亦欠生活帶來的感受，而只是抽離客觀現實的邏輯理念。
脫離現實的邏輯理念可以應用到任何類似的情形，但每個人的經歷卻是主觀的感受，生活遭遇都是個人得很的經驗。寒天飲凍水，每個人面對的困難都是獨特的，也因而只可以由每個人自己去找出解決的方法、闖出自己的門路。每個人都是要走在自己的人生旅途上才可以成長起來的。
是的，人不可以沒有夢想，但那到底是由希望燃亮的夢，還是帶來失望的夢？如果我們不去分辨清楚這個問題的本質，而以為凡夢都會令我們的思想昇華，那則是個錯誤甚至危險的想法。
當我們將本分工作做好，把基本功夫練好，那麼發夢可以啟發我們作前瞻性的探索，為未來燃亮希望。如果我們因為不敢面對艱難的現實生活而發夢，那麼我們只是在逃避現實；這樣的夢或許可以給我們帶來一時的快感，可是發這樣的夢是既消極而又危險的。

這樣的夢猶如令人遐想的理論，都是用來講給入世未深的年輕人聽的。聽了這些理論他們會好興奮，但這種興奮跟吸大麻帶來的 high沒有什麼兩樣；兩者都是幻覺，都是將現實視為一大堆理論假設而已。不，年輕人需要的是想像力而不是白日夢。發白日夢解決不了問題，想像力卻可以為我們提供解決困難的辦法。
活在現實中，我們便要一步一步向前邁進。沒有錯，現實世界沒有一條青雲路，只有解決了一個困難我們才可以向前跨進一步。是的，解決困難才是自我提升的台階。不管是學習上的困難、工作上的困難抑或是生活上的困難，每當解決了一個困難，我們便往前跨進一步了。
我們都是透過解決困難踏上青雲路的。不，世上原來並無一條青雲路，有的僅是透過克服困難而建立的學習曲線。年輕人要的不是夢，而是自愛，自信和想像力。他們要解決人生必然出現的困難，因為他都要進步，對他們來說那才是最重要的。那些販賣夢給年輕人的有識之士，可否停下來想一想他們到底是在做什麼嗎？

黎智英：黎智英的另一个脑袋

黎智英是《壹周刊》和《苹果日报》的老板，这个大家都知道。可是大家也许不知道他是一个多么认真的读者，会把海耶克的所有著作从头到尾一页页啃完。黎智英没上过几天学，很多人都晓得。但是大家或者不晓得他那自修得来的英文其实可以好到扮演ABC，说一些「唔好意思，我中文唔系好好」之类的话；因为他常常要用英汉辞典翻查一个英文词汇到底该怎样译成中文。

虽然我和他在很多事情的看法上南辕北辙（不管是政治经济学的立场还是读书的方法），但我还是很想请他教育一下我们的年轻人怎样学好英文。最后，我发现他的方法其实是很难学的。总是令人意外的黎智英；就像他的办公室，这么狭小，这么简单，完全不是一般人想象中的大亨气派。

梁文道（梁）/黎智英（黎）

梁：你甚么时候开始接触英文？

黎：我12岁在深水埗福荣街当童工，当时有一位负责看守仓库的老人家，他从前是做老师的，退休后便替工厂看守仓库，也会帮忙看一些英文信件及英文契约。那时我很想学英文，我发现但凡骂人的、「威水」的人都会说英文，他们见到鬼佬也会说hello。哗，我觉得不懂英文不行！有一天，那位看守仓库的老人家跟我说：「喂，你买些书本回来，我有时间便教你英文。」于是我买书回去，「a pen、a man、a pen and aman」这样地开始读起来。他也教我查字典，教了几个月后，我便开始自己查字典学英文。其实他教我多少并非最重要，最重要是给了你信心，知道当你不懂的时候可以去问他，这样让你有心机去学习。如果那时我有不懂的地方而没有人可以问，那么学习的过程便会像个黑洞，你无法find out甚么是对的、甚么是不对的。后来有一个时期我想上夜校，便在长沙湾找了一间夜学，可是做工厂常常要开夜车，根本没时间上课，于是后来主要就得靠自学了。那时学英文关乎到自己将来「搵唔搵到食」，因此motivation很大。那时没甚么机会见到外国人，遇到懂英语的人便问一下，也不害羞。

梁：因为当时年轻？

黎：我本来就是一个不害羞的人。那时遇见懂英文的人，即使人家不理睬我，我也会跟他说英文。到了十来二十岁的时候，我到了美国纽约，那时我的英文得到了最大的进步。那个环境逼你讲英文，于是你会开始注意怎样说英文、用英文，每天读英文报纸，很容易便慢慢学懂了。但是到了今天，我还是会错读一些英文字的发音，毕竟我从来没有接受过正规的教导，只有靠自己看字典，发现很多英文生字的拼音跟它真正的读法并不同。

梁：你当时的阅读范围主要是一般课本还是其它书籍？

黎：我会看书，例如ATaleofTwo Cities、Pride & Prejudice。

梁：但你当时只有十多岁，又缺乏正式教育基础，一开始便看这些书，对你来说也挺艰深的。现在我看见很多学生读书，往往翻了几页便看不下去了。

黎：我21、22岁时身在纽约，寄住在一对犹太人夫妇的家里。有一晚，我跟他们到一个律师家中聚会，整晚我都在骂共产党，那时骂起来没甚么知识。骂完了，那个律师送了一本The Road to Serfdom给我，作者是Friedrich Hayek。我回家看了四、五天，只是看了几页。这本书很难明白，当中用到的字汇艰深，句子又长。

梁：最后你怎样看下去呢？

黎：我没想到那个送书给我的律师会在几天后来电话，约我周末到Central Park骑单车。他问我书看得如何，我告诉他自那天离开后我只看了四页。他没有surprise，着我要用心读下去，且说若有甚么不懂的地方，可以每星期踏单车时问问他。我就是从那时开始看一些难懂的书；在那之前，我看书都是为了发达，例如怎样去make a million、怎样炒股票以及富豪的自传等等。但当我看完Hayek时，我知道自己改变了。情况就好像在下大雨的时候，你的脑袋处于车子之内，然后突然间有水拨拨清你的脑袋，所有事情都清楚了起来。从前我并无法将事物put together，但那刻开始却发现原来不同的事物是可以交织在一起的。

梁：所以它对你来说可算是一本启蒙书。

黎：对。它差不多kick off了我对 intellectual的pursue。Hayek、Karl Popper的书这些年来我反复地看了三、四次，它们都是很难、很难看的书，但我就是会读很多次。The Road to Serfdom更被我翻到其中一些页数都甩了出来。

梁：年纪轻轻开始啃硬书，每页书可能有一半生字吧。

黎：哪怕只有三分之一的生字也够惨了。但我觉得这是个习惯的问题，我一开始便习惯了不认识书中的字。如果一本书我很容易便能看得明白，就没有甚么意思了。

梁：有人说一开始看英文书碰上了不懂的生字时别急着查字典，换了你会怎么做？

黎：我一定查，为甚么不？有好些生字我已查了几十次，但就是不记得它的意思。现在当我看书遇到不明白的地方，看到我本来应该懂但又不能准确掌握的东西，我也一定会去查字典。我不能忍受去lay down一些自己不认识的事情。因此，我看书的速度并不快。我会把一些经常查过了字典然后又忘记的生字抄下来。我不可以形容自己「好学」，但我是一个很自爱的人，我不会让自己做事做得不好。我很着紧自己做事有否竭尽全力。我现在还随身带一具电子辞典，因为方便；虽然很多字它都查不到。而且我还使用手机写文章，当我想不起某些中文字时，便会用英文来翻出那个中文。

梁：你用手机来写文章？

黎：对呀，二千字的文章我也是这样写出来的，因此我永远会随身携带电子辞典。我实在没时间坐下来慢慢写，所以当我等人，或是在车上读完一些东西，就会利用空档拿手机去写。

梁：说回TheRoad to Serfdom，你最初读了几天也才看了四页，是甚么时候一下子都贯通的呢？

黎：第一次我看不懂，但还是由头读到尾。直至第二次，还是不太明白；到了第三次、第四次才终于了悟。我现在读书也常常这样读几次，因为很多书要读第二次才能完全明白。好像最近在看Michae Polanyi的 Personal Knowledge，我足足读了三次，因为他的思想逻辑跟我完全不同。但我还是买了他所有的书来看。很多人害怕反复读同一本书，他们要看得快，但我却没有这个心态，我是要明白那本书。我看书跟别人不同的是，很多人买书看就像买cut flowers一样，我不是这样的。我希望将那个作者的想法变成我backyard的 garden，我想买个garden回来，而不是cut flowers。因此我会看同一作者的所有著作，还要读数次，期望将他所有的学问、知识、想法都接收了，become the garden in my backyard, instead of just cut flowers。我要吸收这个人的想法、逻辑和学问，让它成为我思想的一部分，这样才有用。横竖我看书又不是为了考试。

梁：有些人看不明白一本书，他们总会认为那是自己的责任，是自己不行、自己太差劲。可是，也有一些人会觉得那是作者的责任。

黎：我觉得双方都是有责任的。我也会怀疑有些作者写书的时候其实自己都还未想通，于是我会去看大师的著作。我习惯了只找大师的著作来看，往往一看便通，因为他是在想通了过后才写出来的。

梁：你怎么知道谁是大师？

黎：我很少看朋友没看过的书。我有一群朋友，他们都是饱学之士，我会请他们介绍某一个范畴的大师、他的哪本书最好。他们看了认为哪本书好，我才会看。只要你看大师著作的一个chapter，便会很快明白了当中的道理，连以前看不明白的同类书籍也会霍然贯通。好像Personal Knowledge那本书，便是一位很有名的美国神父给我的，他说我会喜欢这本书。哗！我看了第一次感到很muddle、看第二次还是很muddle，直到第三次我才慢慢明白过来。当你知道这个大师之后再没有大师，你便会慢慢捱下去。

梁：看了第一次、第二次后仍然觉得很muddle，这样子会快乐吗？

黎：不快乐，很frustrated。但我有一个瘾去overcome这本书。因为你知道那个作者是大师，你知道这本书里头是言之有物的。而且它有一些例子让你明白里头的道理，只是你还未弄得透彻，未能够将书中的东西抽取出来应用在另一个地方，那你便知道自己其实还不懂。

梁：所以你是凭着斗志读下去的？

黎：是要凭斗志。好像最近读John Rawls的Atheory of justice，我看到一半便give up了，很不开心。因为他是「左仔」，我是「右仔」，我很难理解他的logic，虽然我知道他是大师。但他十分左倾，我跟他完全合不来，都已经看了大约三分之二了，还用铅笔在书中写了很多东西，可最后还是放弃了。

梁：其实是你太右了，John Rawls顶多也只是个左倾的自由主义者。不过话说回来，你好像只喜欢看学术书籍。

黎：我不看小说，也不看中文书。这是bias，说出来一定会被人骂 ─我觉得过去那二百年并没甚么突出的中文thinkers能够像西方的Hayek、Karl Popper、Huntington一样。即使出现了一些中文的thinkers，他们的thinking也都是西方的思想，只是换了中文来写，很难令人看得明白。此外，我不怎么看闲书。有时贪过瘾，晚上睡前不想脑袋太「实」，便看一下人物传记，看那些神神怪怪的东西。好像张大春常常送书给我，甚么《棋王》的，他跟我说好正、一定要看，我不好意思跟他说我没看过。因为我看书的schedule太赶，我那群海外朋友想我读完他们介绍的书之后尽快给feedback。我也不会浪费自己的emotion在文学和电影里头；例如《大红灯笼高高挂》，戏中有女人说没月事来，我立即跟妻子说在lobby等。一旦有恐怖的事情出现，我便看不下去。

梁：这样你也害怕？

黎：对呀，每次看电影看到悲剧快要发生，我便跟妻子说要走了。我不喜欢悲剧，不喜欢小说里的悲剧，看到一个男人跟女人讲分手的情节，我会立即合上那本书。我不可以面对这些事，不可以。因此我这一生从来没跟女人说过分手，我不敢。

梁：你十分感情用事？

黎：其实是很怕感情，所以我不看感情用事的书，很怕。

梁：那么历史呢？

黎：我很少看。因为我是一个不尊重历史的人，我不觉得历史会repeatitself，我不觉得会在其中学到些甚么。有些人可以在历史里学到很多东西，但我是一个永远向前望、向前走的人。这对我来说是一件很natural的事，小时候在街边生活，很多事情你不想回头望。你这样卑微的开始，经历了被人「遭质」、被日子蹂躏，你是不会想回头的。所以我习惯了，I never look back。

梁：所以那些大陆禁书你也不看了？像谈及中国现代史、大跃进等等。

黎：我家中有一迭别人送给我的书，好像《墓碑》。哗！惨到那个样子，你叫我看？不是开玩笑吧？这样的书我翻看几页也吓到脚软了。

梁：那么你也不会看喜剧吧？

黎：不。我看喜剧，我喜欢笑。虽然廿年来看过的电影不超过两三套，但我会看电视剧，例如Cheers、Seinfeld等等，都是「笑到痴线」的东西。我不喜欢看很heavy的东西，我情愿heavy in the way of understanding, not in the way of sentiment or emotion。但是我会读许多艺术方面的书籍。过去到博物馆欣赏画作的感觉明显会较现在逊色，现在当我站在画作前，会发现整个人都被吸引住了，这是过往无法感受的。

梁：你刚才提及Michael Polanyi时说想看他所有的作品，这就好像做功课一样？

黎：对啊。但对我来说这很interesting。好像 Polanyi，他的思想跟我们这些conservatives、自由派人士所想的是一样的；但at the same time他思考的方式跟我们完全不同，这件事情很interesting。

梁：你会否有一个每天阅读的计划？

黎：从前是有的，但现在我的看书时间已大为减少。从前我会清晨三点起床，第一件事是做运动，五点左右起看两、三小时的书，然后再看报纸。其实现在也会看书，不看会有guilty feeling。只是现在有太多事情要做，有时要看看别的东西，不像以前般有一个consistent的时间去看书。但加起来我每天阅读的时间还是不少于四小时。

梁：你这样忙，怎样抽时间看书？

黎：我就是在忙这些事情。

梁：那公司的事呢？

黎：基本上我不是很忙。但也有忙的时候，例如要看《壹周刊》的八至十篇稿子。一忙起来就要整个人走进去；但把问题解决了，便得立刻抽身出来。

梁：你会监察自己报章杂志的内容，把它们尽量看一遍吗？

黎：不会，我通常只把自己当读者。例如《忽然1周》，我会翻翻看，若对某些访问感到兴趣便会读一下。要是某些文章过于沉闷，便会给一点意见。假如你常常都在谈环保，那便太沉闷了，我们不是搞social service的呀！

梁：你是办传媒的，因此拥有另一种读者的身分。这种读者跟学术书籍的读者很不一样吧？头脑可实时转过去吗？

黎：不用转的，naturally我就是这样。可能是工作的关系，我就是有这种兴趣。好像你在《饮食男女》所写的专栏，还有叶一南的文章，我都觉得很好看。我是一个「市场的人」，如果我自己都不去看，便会没有了触觉。

梁：经常听你说到「你的朋友」，那似乎是一个读书的圈子，这个圈子是怎样形成的？

黎：第一个圈子是之前跟你提及的那位律师，他的朋友和一些Jewish的intellectuals，他们常常介绍书给我看。回港后，我慢慢有了另一个圈子的朋友，主要是作家。例如一个在英国长大的Australian作家George Hicks，他写过一本书名叫The comfort women；此外还有Perry Link，慢慢地开始了一个network。朋友们会推介一些书给我，我看完了再写一点东西介绍给其他人。

梁：这就像一个读书会。是网上的吗？

黎：对，这个读书会已办了很多年，朋友都是来自世界各地的，大多教书。最近有人送了本近日很流行的TheBlack Swan给我看。我立即send email问朋友是否值得看，朋友说不值得：「don’t even look at it」，那我就不花时间了。

梁：你认为读书的人是否需要一群这样的朋友？

黎：我认为是需要的。不是说这群人一定要有学识；老实说，长期看书的人怎样也会变得有学识吧。最重要是有个shared value，这群人都share一个比较conservative的value。如果圈子内有些人比较liberal、有些人比较conservative、有一些人左倾、另一些人右倾，那对你看书的冲击会很大。我看书不像其他人要看两边的arguments，我只看一方。我觉得这个世界只有true或者not true。无论怎样我也不信「左仔」的argument。

梁：「学而无友，孤陋寡闻」，读书人要有一个圈子，但当中一定包括了跟自己想法不同的人，所以应该自然去预备差异和辩论。但是，你却认为大家喜欢的东西最好是一样的。

黎：我肯定也看过那些我不喜欢的作者，只是觉得那些 arguments进不到我的脑子。我很反对任何立场的书都看，然后好像甚么都懂。我觉得一个人不应该是这样的，一个人应该有一条line、有个argument与logic去follow。

梁：但你不能够排除有些人真是甚么都懂的，同时又能形成自己的一些想法。一个保守的右派多看左派的书，也许能够让自己的立场与论证更加精细。

黎：但那些argument恐怕不用看也会懂的。近来我在Wall Street Journal看过George Steiner的文章后，觉得很棒，便将其著作统统买下，他就好像甚么都懂得似的。直到有一天，我看到他谈经济，便知道他其实不懂经济，那就到此为止。我已买了他的十多本着作，可是现在我都不想要了，若你想要我可以全送给你。George Steiner是一个很好的例子，他无疑是聪明绝顶，可是，我觉得他过于show-off。当他谈论不同的事情时，每每喜欢东拉西扯。Hey,you don’t need to

do that.You don’t have to do that!你用不着一下子将不同的事物全都堆到我面前去，使我原本能够清清楚楚的都变成不清不楚了。

梁：也许你该看看Wittgenstein，因为他不炫学，不喜欢引用别人的东西。

黎：如果他的名气这么大，但我却没有碰过他的作品，我相信他必定是有点左倾的。

梁：哈哈！你没有看过他的作品，但你怀疑他是左派！你不担心会错失了一些好书？你已选定了你所相信的事物，然后便一直坚持下去，同时也不会费神去读一些counter-arguments。

黎：知识的世界这么大，我们必定会有所错失的，那么何不令自己处于一些能够好好掌握的事物之中？如此，当别人向你发问时，你才能够有反应，至少你会在一个school of thought里，能够有一个 solution。但若你甚么都懂，便不可能有反应了。

梁：谈了这么多关于读书的事，对你来说，究竟「读书」是甚么？

黎：是尊严。对一个未曾上过学的人来说，若然能够掌握得到一些学识与学问，这给予我一份很大程度的尊严。

梁：可是很多人并不知道你的这一面。

黎：我不需向别人说这些。不过，in a way，也许我也show-off了，因为当任何人坐下来跟我聊时，对方并不会觉得我「无料到」。当他谈到任何subject时，我都不会搭不上嘴。只是我并不觉得需要透过show-off来获得安全感。

梁：所以你从来没有想过回到正常的教育体系？

黎：没有。根本没时间让你想这个事情，因为要「搵食」，而且我很容易「搵到好多食」，于是便更加不需要了。我一向不太相信只有在学校才能学习，比起许多由学校里出来的人，我觉得自己有过之而无不及。不过，要是你问我有没有因为没上过学而自卑，那肯定是有的。In the back of my mind，当我有了这个自卑感，我便会努力一点，不看一些无谓的书，不浪费自己的时间。

梁：很多香港人认为读书对工作有帮助，你有这个想法吗？

黎：若是说与工作相关的，也许是我最初所读的那些吧，像How to Make a Million Dollars，不过很快你便会觉得它们很「戆居」，它们都是胡说八道。它们的唯一意义就是能够激励你的野心，让你心里有一份「cando-ism」；既然作者都能够赚到onemillion，那么我也同样可以。或许对年轻人来说这样很有用处吧。

赵合句透露了他的两个养生秘诀：洗肠和护肾。护肾主要是按摩睾丸，洗肠则是喝水+按摩。
每天早上起来，首先灌一大温开水，250-300毫升左右。然后躺在床上，按摩腹部清肠。具体方法如下：以脐周为圆心，双手重叠放在腹部，顺时针150圈，逆时针150圈。
他的养生秘诀是每天都做“养梨操”，也就是按摩睾丸一小时，至今与小他10岁的老伴保持着有规律的性生活。

每天按摩睾丸1小时
与老伴保持规律性生活
“我的母亲活到了102岁，我也要争取活到100岁。”赵老说，每天早上9点和下午4点他都会按摩睾丸半个小时，雷打不动坚持了十年。
按摩睾丸时，力量一定要轻柔。首先把双手搓热，重叠放在肚脐周围，顺、逆时针分别按揉50次；

然后捻精索，用拇指和食指轻捻生殖器根部的左右精索各50次；
用手兜住睾丸，双手用力向上兜擦100次；再用手握住一侧睾丸，轻轻揉捏50次，换另一侧；
最后，用手轻轻提拉生殖器100次。
经常按摩睾丸，是壮阳养生的好方法。睾丸锻炼的效果不错，赵合句现在和老伴仍然有规律地进行正常的性生活，从来不压抑自己的性欲。





謂腹式呼吸法是指吸氣時讓腹部凸起，吐氣時壓縮腹部使之凹入的呼吸法。

正確的腹式呼吸法為：開始吸氣時全身用力，此時肺部及腹部會充滿空氣而鼓起，但還不能停止，仍然要使盡力氣來持續吸氣，不管有沒有吸進空氣，只管吸氣再吸氣。

然後屏住氣息4秒，此時身體會感到緊張，接著利用8秒的時間緩緩的將氣吐出。

吐氣時宜慢且長而且不要中斷。做完幾次前述方式後，不但不會覺得難過，反而會有一種舒暢的快感。實際上測定呼吸時的腦波, 可以知道在吸氣時屏住氣息的瞬間則大鳴大放，而且在吐氣時α波也持續出現。

也就是說，屏住氣息可以使得α波更容易出現。
