關於 you broke me meaning ，我們在網路上蒐集到這些相關的討論、資訊與評價

Back for more! After getting complete blood and urine tests at BodyConscious Bkk with an hour long consultation each about what supplements and lifestyle changes we need to move closer towards optimal health, Byron and I received another round of acupuncture and sound healing. Ahhhhh so peaceful 🥰🥰🥰

This was after Byron’s Shockwave Therapy to specifically target his chronic shoulder pain due to old neck injury. ( He broke his neck pole vaulting at age 18) Look at the size of the needles in his head! 😱 But apparently they acted as a strong pain relief and he was flying high on endorphins afterwards with a big goofy grin on his face 😂 He will need to do these weekly to treat the years of lack of mobility due to fused vertebra and metal pin in his neck but so far it seems to be doing something. Will let you know how it goes!

As for me, I was given a special Gut Health Massage for my digestive issues and emotional blockages. Based on the same technique as Chi Nei Tsang, which helps release stress and promotes healing by using techniques of massage directly over the navel and surrounding abdominal area where stress, tension and negative emotions accumulate and congest. Apparently I’m storing a fair amount of stress and anxiety said the therapist as she kneaded and rolled around my gut. Gives a whole new meaning to having a “knot in your belly” 😅 Immediately after I felt a deep sense of ease and was able to breathe more deeply (which is essentially the key to release of stress and negative emotions)

We will be receiving our personalized supplement and vitamin packs soon and I’ll be back to share more!

［翻轉視界 8］逃離禁錮之地：離開北韓我學會自由與憐憫
　
“If you don't know the words, that means you don't understand the concept, and therefore, you don't even realize that concept is even a possibility.” —— human rights activist Yeonmi Park。
　
「如果你不知道某些詞彙，那就意味著你並不了解某些概念，因此你也不會意識到，那些概念可以是一種可能。」——人權鬥士朴延美
　
對出逃前的她而言，自由與溫飽是很奢侈的理念，更無法了解「愛」的全貌。當我們無法得知世界發生了什麼，無法想像那超越自身認知的世界，我們便無法真正地同理他人。今天我想邀請大家，以不同的角度，重新感受自由、溫飽與愛的可貴。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
I was born in 1993 in the northern part of North Korea, in a town called Hyesan, which is on the border with China. I had loving parents and one older sister. Before I was even 10 years old, my father was sent to a labor camp for engaging in illegal trading. Now, by "illegal trading" -- he was selling clogs, sugar, rice and later copper to feed us. In 2007, my sister and I decided to escape. She was 16 years old, and I was 13 years old.
　
1. on the border with 鄰近邊界
2. labor camp 勞改營
3. illegal trading 非法的交易
　
１９９３年我出生在北韓的北部，一個名叫惠山的小鎮，鄰近中國邊界。我有愛我的父母與一位姐姐。在我１０歲大的時候，父親就被送去勞改營，因為他非法買賣一些東西。所謂的非法買賣，其實他是賣一些木鞋、糖、米，之後還賣了銅，只為了餵飽我們。２００７年，姐姐和我決定逃跑。她當時１６歲，而我１３歲。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
I need you to understand what the word "escape" means in the context of North Korea. We were all starving, and hunger means death in North Korea. So it was the only option for us. I didn't even understand the concept of escape, but I could see the lights from China at night, and I wondered if I go where the light is, I might be able to find a bowl of rice. It's not like we had a grand plan or maps. We did not know anything about what was going to happen. Imagine your apartment building caught fire. I mean, what would you do? Would you stay there to be burned, or would you jump off out of the window and see what happens? That's what we did. We jumped out of the house instead of the fire.
　
4. in the context of 在⋯⋯的情境中
5. concept 概念；觀念；思想
6. a grand plan 一個遠大的計畫
7. catch fire 著火
　
你們要知道，「逃跑」這兩字在北韓意味著什麼。我們天天挨餓，而飢餓在北韓意味著死亡。所以逃跑是我們唯一的選擇。我當時還不了解逃跑是什麼意思，但晚上我能看見中國那邊的燈光，我想著如果我能到有光的地方，也許就能找到一碗飯。我們沒有什麼遠大的計畫或地圖。我們完全不知道，接下來會發生什麼事。想像一下，你的公寓失火了，你會怎麼辦？你會坐以待斃，還是跳窗然後再看著辦？我們就是那樣。我們從大樓上跳了下來， 而不是等火燒上來。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
North Korea is unimaginable. It's very hard for me when people ask me what it feels like to live there. To be honest, I tell you: you can't even imagine it. The words in any language can't describe, because it's a totally different planet, as you cannot imagine your life on Mars right now. For example, the word "love" has only one meaning: love for the Dear Leader. There's no concept of romantic love in North Korea. And if you don't know the words, that means you don't understand the concept, and therefore, you don't even realize that concept is even a possibility.
　
8. unimaginable 無法想像
9. no concept of... 沒有⋯的概念
10. romantic love 浪漫愛
　
北韓是難以想像的。對我來說，要回答住在北韓是什麼感覺，非常困難。老實說，我可以告訴各位——你無從想像。沒有任何語言可以描述，因為那是個截然不同的星球，就像你現在無法想像自己在火星上的生活一樣。比如說，「愛」只有一個意思：愛偉大的領袖。在北韓沒有那種浪漫之愛的概念。如果你不知道某些詞彙，那就意味著你並不了解某些概念，因此你也不會意識到，那些概念可以是一種可能。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
Let me give you another example. Growing up in North Korea, we truly believed that our Dear Leader is an almighty god who can even read my thoughts. I was even afraid to think in North Korea. We are told that he's starving for us, and he's working tirelessly for us, and my heart just broke for him. When I escaped to South Korea, people told me that he was actually a dictator, he had cars, many, many resorts, and he had an ultraluxurious life. And then I remember looking at a picture of him, realizing for the first time that he is the largest guy in the picture. And it hit me. Finally, I realized he wasn't starving. But I was never able to see that before, until someone told me that he was fat.
　
11. an almighty god 一個全能的神
12. tirelessly 不屈不撓地；堅忍地
13. a dictator 獨裁者
14. it hit me 突然想到、意識到 
15. resort 度假地（此處係指北韓獨裁者有很多度假別墅）
16. ultraluxurious 極其奢華的
17. have a…life 過著⋯⋯的生活
　
讓我再舉一個例子。在北韓長大，我們真心相信我們偉大的領袖是全能的神，他甚至能看穿我在想什麼。我在北韓甚至不敢思考。我們聽說他為我們挨餓、不眠不休地為我們工作，而我為此感到心痛。我逃到南韓後，有人跟我說他其實是獨裁者，他有很多車、很多很多渡假別墅，他的生活極為奢華。我記得自己看著一張有他的照片，第一次意識到他是照片裡體型最大的那個。這件事讓我大受打擊。那時我才終於了解，他沒有挨餓。但我以前總無法看清這些，直到有人跟我說他很胖，我才恍然大悟。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
Really, someone had to teach me that he was fat. If you have never practiced critical thinking, then you simply see what you're told to see. The biggest question also people ask me is: "Why is there no revolution inside North Korea? Are we dumb? Why is there no revolution for 70 years of this oppression?" And I say: If you don't know you're a slave, if you don't know you're isolated or oppressed, how do you fight to be free? I mean, if you know you're isolated, that means you are not isolated. Not knowing is the true definition of isolation, and that's why I never knew I was isolated when I was in North Korea. I literally thought I was in the center of the universe.
　
18. critical thinking 批判性思考
19. revolution 革命
20. dumb 愚蠢的*
21. oppression 壓迫；壓制；欺壓
22. isolated and oppressed 與世隔絕的與被壓迫的
　
真的，要有人教我，他這樣叫做胖。如果你沒學過批判性思考，你看到的就只會是別人跟你說的。其他人對我提出的大哉問還有：「為何北韓沒有革命？我們傻嗎？為何歷經７０年的壓迫，卻沒人發動革命？」我回答：「如果你不知道自己是奴隸，不知道自己被與世隔絕、壓迫，你要如何為自由而戰？我的意思是，如果你知道自己被與世隔絕，那就表示你並非真的與世隔絕。與世隔絕的真正定義是無知，所以我從不知道，在北韓的我與世隔絕。我真的以為我們是宇宙的中心。

*dumb: https://bit.ly/3fG5XOk
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
So here is my idea worth spreading: a lot of people think humans inherently know what is right and wrong, the difference between justice and injustice, what we deserve and we don't deserve. I tell them: BS. Everything, everything must be taught, including compassion. If I see someone dying on the street right now, I will do anything to save that person. But when I was in North Korea, I saw people dying and dead on the streets. I felt nothing. Not because I'm a psychopath, but because I never learned the concept of compassion. Only, I felt compassion, empathy and sympathy in my heart after I learned the word "compassion" and the concept, and I feel them now.
　
23. inherently 與生俱來地
24. justice and injustice 正義與不義
25. psychopath 精神病患者
26. compassion, empathy and sympathy 憐憫、同理與同情*
　
我覺得值得分享的想法是：很多人以為，人類生來就能分辨是非對錯，懂得正義與邪惡的差別，我們值得被怎樣對待。我跟他們說：放屁。所有的事，所有的事都得經過教導，包含憐憫。如果我現在看見有人在路邊奄奄一息，我會不顧一切來救他。但我在北韓的時候，會眼睜睜看著有人橫死街頭，卻沒有任何感覺。並非因為我是心理病態，而是我從未學過憐憫的概念。只有在我的內心感受到憐憫、同理與同情，我才學會「憐憫」一詞與其概念，而如今我已能感受到這些。
　
*compassion: a strong feeling of sympathy and sadness for the suffering or bad luck of others and a wish to help them

empathy: the ability to share someone else's feelings or experiences by imagining what it would be like to be in that person's situation

sympathy: (an expression of) understanding and care for someone else's suffering
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
Now I live in the United States as a free person.
　
現在我以自由人的身分住在美國。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
And recently, the leader of the free country, our President Trump, met with my former god. And he decided human rights is not important enough to include in his agendas, and he did not talk about it. And it scares me. We live in a world right now where a dictator can be praised for executing his uncle, for killing his half brother, killing thousands of North Koreans. And that was worthy of praise. And also it made me think: perhaps we all need to be taught something new about freedom now. Freedom is fragile. I don't want to alarm you, but it is. It only took three generations to make North Korea into George Orwell's "1984." It took only three generations. If we don't fight for human rights for the people who are oppressed right now who don't have a voice, as free people here, who will fight for us when we are not free? Machines? Animals? I don't know.
　
27. agenda 議程
28. be praised for 因⋯⋯獲得讚揚
29. execute (v.) 處決
30. worthy of sth 適合某物或具有某物的特徵
31. fragile 脆弱
　
最近，自由國度的領袖，我們的川普總統，和我以前的神會面。他認定，人權沒那麼重要，不需排進議程中，所以對此他隻字不提。這嚇壞我了。我們竟身在一個獨裁者處決伯父還能獲得讚揚的世界裡，他殺害同父異母的哥哥、殺害成千上萬的北韓人民，竟還能得到讚揚。這不禁使我開始思考，也許我們現在都要學習自由的新涵義。自由很脆弱。我不想嚇你，但事實如此。短短三個世代，就讓北韓淪為喬治．歐威爾筆下的《１９８４》。只花了三個世代。如果我們不為人權而戰，不為受壓迫、不為無法發聲的人而戰，當身為自由人的我們不自由時，誰還願意為我們而戰？機器嗎？動物嗎？我不知道。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
I think it's wonderful that we care about climate change, animal rights, gender equality, all of these things. The fact that we care about animals' rights, that means that's how beautiful our heart is, that we care about someone who cannot speak for themselves. And North Koreans right now cannot speak for themselves. They don't have internet in the 21st century. We don't have electricity, and it is the darkest place on earth right now. Now I want to say something to my fellow North Koreans who are living in that darkness. They might not believe this, but I want to tell them that an alternative life is possible. Be free.
　
32. speak for oneself 為某人發聲
33. alternative life 另一種生活
　
我覺得我們能關心氣候變遷、動物權益、性別平等諸如此類之事，真的很美好。因為，我們關心動物權益，就代表了我們的心地有多善良，也代表我們關心無法為自己發聲的對象。北韓人民現在無法為自己發聲。身處２１世紀的他們，沒有網路可用。我們沒有電，那裡是當今地球上最暗的地方。現在我想告訴那些生活在北韓黑暗中的同胞。也許他們不會相信我，但我想告訴他們，生命仍有其他可能——意即自由的生活。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
From my experience, literally anything is possible. I was bought, I was sold as a slave. But now I'm here, and that is why I believe in miracles. The one thing that I learned from history is that nothing is forever in this world. And that is why we have every reason to be hopeful. Thank you.
　
34. slave 奴隸
35. miracle 奇蹟
　
就我的經驗，真的什麼事都有可能發生。我被人買走，賣給別人當奴隸。但我現在在這裡，這也就是為什麼我相信奇蹟。我從歷史上學到的一件事，就是世上沒有什麼是永恆的。而這也是我們無論如何都能懷有希望的原因。謝謝大家。

【八字還没一撇，誰說命不能改？】(English writing below)

「今天，我會讓您知道什麼是真正的看八字。」

我一般在開始前，會問客人他們可曾看過命，以便我了解他們對自己命的認知。

這位客人告訴她之前看過，但得到的方案，就是要向那間店買價值五位數的幾種水晶，才能解決她的問題。

聽了之後，我覺得八字命理被誤解到這樣，甚是遺憾。

看完八字的幾天後，她傳了以下的私訊給我。

20多年來，因為曾經喝了後心跳一整天都跳得很快，她便一直以為自己對咖啡過敏，不敢喝。但我說可以，而且還要多喝，並解釋為何那時會心跳加速。

她勇敢聽從我的建議，突破了自己以為的「宿命」。

很多人其實都在受苦受難，但大多數人卻不要去了解如何改命，只會埋怨或說一些掃興的話：

「哎呀，我的業障重啊！」
「改什麼命？有用的話，為什麼那麼多人還這麼辛苦？」
「很難的啦，很難的！我有試過，還不是這樣！」
「一切都是註定的！人生就是這樣，看開一點！」
「不要啦！知道自己的命以後，不是自己嚇自己嗎？」

一直講這樣的話，根本就是在詛咒自己，不給自己機會，不增長自己的智慧，所以頭腦一直不清醒，心就不會光明，因此很多人的靈魂之窗都是混濁的。

因為她他封閉了自己的心，眼睛看不清，生生世世都是這樣，自己生出來的孩子也是這樣『漏氣』。

我寧可知道自己怎麼死，什麼時候死，為什麼會死，如何死的輕鬆，也不願死的不明不白。

這是我最初學玄學和佛法的初發心。我要奪回掌控自己命運的能力。

天時地利人和，八字既是天時，佔了您人生的33%，另外的33%地利是風水的協調，最後的33%便是人和，包含著了自己的努力。

可是您的天時，會引來某種「地利」，更會影響您的「人和」能力。它們之間有著非常密切的互動關係。

可以這麽說，你如果沒有深入了解自己的「天時」，你不懂的用命，你無法知道怎樣的風水才是最旺自己，你也無法啟動你的「人和」方向，開發你生命的潛能。

一般人只會說「隨緣」，但你知道嗎？真正的隨緣，是你盡了一切的努力後，不去勉強結果，也能看開最後的輸贏。

重點是你有努力，你懂得怎樣努力，你有為你父母給予你的生命盡責的活得更有出息。

該來的可能還是會來，但有我在，不要怕知道自己的命運，因為為什麼我們要隨隨便便的認輸給命運......或一杯咖啡呢？

....................

"Today, I will let you witness what analysing Bazi truly means."

Usually before I begin, I will ask the client if they have gotten their Destiny analysed before, so that I can understand how much they know of their own Destiny.

This client told me she did the analysis before. However the solutions she received were to purchase various crystals amounting to a five-figure amount. She could barely afford to pay that huge sum.

After listening to her, I felt much regret that Bazi Analysis had been so misinterpreted and misunderstood by the masses.

A few days after our consultation session, I received the PMs from the client.

Because she once experienced rapid heart beating after drinking coffee, for 20 years, she thought she was allergic to coffee and dare not consume it again. I told her she could, and in fact, should drink as much as possible. I also explained to her why her heart rate shot up at that time.

She bravely took up my advice, and broke through her self-assumed Destiny.

There are many people out there who are suffering. Yet most of them do not wish to understand how to turn things around, but instead play the blame game or say things that dampen one's mood:

"It's me lah. I have severe heavy negative karma."
"What Destiny is there to change? If it works, why are so many people still suffering?"
"It's very tough, impossible! I tried before, but nothing changed!"
"Everything is predestined! Life is like that, just take it easy!"
"Don't want! Isn't it scaring myself to know my Destiny?"

If you keep talking like that, you are just cursing yourself. You deny yourself the opportunity to increase your wisdom. Your brain remains in that state of insobriety, with no Light in your heart.

This is why the windows of the souls of many people are cloudy and unclear.

Because they have chosen to close up their minds and this shows in their eyes. They remain like this for many lifetimes, and pass on this demoralising trait to their children.

I rather know how I will die, when I will die, why I will die, and how I can die more fuss-free, than to die not knowing anything. This was my initial reason for learning Chinese Metaphysics and Dharma. I want to regain control of my own Destiny.

The Chinese phrase of 天時地利人和 means:

Your Bazi is the Heavenly Time which constitutes 33% of your life,
the Favourable Place which means harmonising your residence Feng Shui forms another 33%,
and the last 33% is Human Effort.

However, your Heavenly Time will attract a certain kind of "Favourable Place", and also influences heavily your amount of Human Effort.

These 3 variables have a very intricate working relationship in controlling your life.

In other words, if you do not have deep understanding of your Heavenly Time, you do not know how to use your Bazi. Neither will you know what kind of Feng Shui is most prosperous for yourself, nor will you be able to steer your Human Effort in the best direction to maximise your life potential.

Most people will say just leave it to Fate. But you know what? The true meaning of that phrase means after you put in your best effort, you will not force the end result and be at peace with the eventual winning or losing.

The most important thing is you have worked hard, you know how to work hard, and with the life your parents gifted you, you fulfilled your responsibility by living it in a more promising way.

Perhaps what will happen will still come. But I am here. Don't be afraid to know your Destiny, because why should we admit defeat to Destiny, or in my client's case, a cup of coffee?

《A Whole New World & Game of Thrones》（電影「阿拉丁」主題曲-嶄新的世界 & 影集「權力遊戲」主題曲）小提琴大提琴版本 | Violin Cover by Lin Tzu An and Cello by Wu Yo Yo of A Whole New World, OST of “Aladdin,” and Main Title from the “Game of Thrones”

我跟大提琴手登凱又來一個合作。
配合上星期阿拉丁電影的上映和權力遊戲第8季大結局，這週是主題曲週。

為了完美勾起大家的童年回憶，而且據說權力遊戲第8季大結局讓劇迷們非常失望，我跟大提琴手登凱決定再度一起合作cover，這絕對不會讓大家失望！

阿拉丁劇情背後其實有很深的意涵，其中覺得最感動的地方就是阿拉丁和茉莉公主改變了看待對方的視角，跳脫外在角色既定印象，而看到對方真實的自我，希望大家可以不要被社會價值或標籤所禁錮，可以跳脫刻板印象，做真正的自己。
「不必為了改變而改變，真心的人愛你，是因為你就是你。」（阿拉丁，2019）

這讓我想到，當初決定到街頭演出時，就是希望可以打破大家對音樂系科班學生畢業之後的就業選擇，我希望透過音樂，可以傳遞溫暖力量給大家。所以我選擇當國家音樂廳的逃犯，走下音樂廳的舞台，站在街頭和大家互動，拉近和大家的距離，拉琴給大家聽，希望大家聽到我的琴聲音樂，可以感到開心幸福感動。

如果你獲得了神燈，你會向精靈許什麼樣的願望呢？
我呢，希望大家二刷三刷很多刷阿拉丁電影的時候，可以刷很多次我的cover！
大家沒有神燈可以許願的話，吹生日蠟燭也有3個願望，或是買健達出奇蛋也可以一次滿足3個願望（非業配，但歡迎廠商們找我贊助XD）
我雖然不是精靈，無法滿足大家所有的願望，但還是歡迎大家留言許願歌單。

這次拍攝cover遇到重重困難，凌晨開拍，但是才要拍就開始下大雨，
上週唯一一次的下雨就是我拍攝那天，所以上週來不及更新cover影片。
最後作為沒有遵守週更影片的賠罪，這句台詞送給大家，也是阿拉丁電影中的台詞：把笑容掛在臉上，自信披在身上，堅強放在心上，命運握在手上。

歡迎大家在沒有下雨的週末到信義區香堤大道，聽這些cover歌曲的live版！詳細演出相關資訊，我都會更新在我的Instagram 限時動態！

Here comes my weekly updated cover.

This week is the week for soundtracks : A Whole New World, OST of “Aladdin,” and Main Title from the “Game of Thrones,” both of which were officially released last week.

To perfectly represent everyone's childhood memories, and it is said that fans were disappointed to the finale of the power game season 8, I decided to cooperate again with my cello partner Wu Yo Yo, which will definitely make everyone satisfied !

I’m touched by the meaning behind Aladdin when Aladdin and Jasmine changed their perspectives, broke the stereotypes established and finally saw each other’s true inner self. May each one of you free from the stereotypes of social standards, be true to yourself and respect other’s uniqueness. ”Never change for the sake of change; those who are true will always love you for who you are” (Aladdin 2019)

This reminds me of my decision of being a busker. Instead of playing at National Concert Hall and being the best violinist, the expected career path from the society toward those majoring in music, I chose to performing as a busker, passing the healing power of music, getting closer to everyone, and sharing my music and the touching moments with everyone.

What would you do if you get Aladdin’s lamp?
I just hope ya’ll enjoy my cover.
Though I am not Genie that can make your dream come true, the only thing I can do is playing the requested song for you.

There were soooo many unexpected obstacles about the filming of this cover. It was supposed to film in the early morning, but started to rain heavily.
Due to the super heavy rain, the cover was delayed.
As for making up for not keeping the promise of updating my cover on time, here is another line I love from Aladdin “wear your smile on the face, carry your confidence on the shoulder, keep courage in your heart, and hold destiny in your hand.”

Should you have any request regarding cover songs, just comment below and let me know.
Also please share the video and subscribe to my channel https://bit.ly/2EsTGMQ.
Don't forget to click the 🔔 bell to be notified when my videos come out!

Another week, another cover. Let's goooo, hope yall like this!

This is an English cover of "Sekai ni Hitotsu Dake no Hana" (The Only Flower in the World), a well-known song performed by Japanese boy band SMAP (founded in 1988 and disbanded just last year in 2016), with lyrics by singer-songwriter Noriyuki Makihara.

While I usually create my own translations, there was already a fantastic English version of this song by Hiromi De Young (YouTube linked below in the credits), and a great translation of the chorus by Nelson Babin-Coy (channel also linked). I used my favorite parts of each of these and made a few of my own changes.

I hope this song's message of acceptance and uniqueness reaches a larger audience through my cover.

Enjoy!

*Note: As usual, most of the translation is very close to the original meaning, but the second pre-chorus (the verse starting with "I saw a small flower...") is actually quite different from the original. However, I loved these lyrics so much that I kept them :)

The original meaning of the verse in Japanese is:
I didn't even know his name
But he gave me a smile that day
Just like a flower that was blooming
In a place where nobody would notice it

～♪～♪～♪～♪～♪～

今日は、昨年解散したSMAPの「世界に一つだけの花」を英語で歌ってみました♪

今回の英語詞はいつもと違って他人の訳詞を使わせていただきました。Hiromi De Youngによる素晴らしい英訳とNelson Babin-Coyによるサビ部分の素敵な英訳に、自分の変更を少し入れて歌わせていただきました。（お二人のYouTubeチャンネルへのリンクは下記のクレジットに記載しました。）

私のカバーを通じて、他人に対する寛容さと個性の大切さという、この曲のメッセージがより多くの人に伝わると嬉しいです。Enjoy!

※ちなみに、この英訳はいつものようにかなり原曲の歌詞に近いのですが、2番目のＢメロ（「I saw a small flower」から始まるところ）だけが原曲の意味とかなり離れています。それでも、ここの英語詞があまりにも素敵だったのでそのままにしました(^^)/

I saw a small flower as I walked by
通り過ぎたら小さな花を見つけた
It stretched from the shadows to reach for the sky
その花は影の中から空へと伸びていた
I thought to myself, what if I was that way
そして思った　私もその花と同じように
Reaching for my own dream and saying...
自分の夢に手を伸ばして　こう言おう

～♪～♪～♪～♪～♪～

We all have a blossom we like more than the rest
But I think, with flowers, they all are the best

No fighting or envy, they never contend
But smile in the sunlight and sway in the wind
They all know their mission, it fills them with pride
Everyone is different yet all are alike

I wonder why people must always compare
And judge one another it seems so unfair
To place color, status, and looks to the test
For how can these show us who’s the best?

Just like these flowers
In the whole wide world, you are one of a kind
Cherish your uniqueness, no, you don't need to hide it
Each one of us holds our own special seed
So just be true to you, that's all you'll ever need

A man stood beside me and peered with a sigh
He puzzled and pondered but could not decide
With so many flowers and various hues
All were so pretty, which one should he choose?

Suddenly, a big smile broke out on his face
Flowers in all different colors and shapes
He gathered up a bouquet with one of each kind
Hugging them softly with joy in his mind

I saw a small flower as I walked by
It stretched from the shadows to reach for the sky
I thought to myself, what if I was that way
Reaching for my own dream and saying...

そうさ　僕らも世界に一つだけの花
(sou sa bokura mo sekai ni hitotsu dake no hana)
一人一人違う種を持つ
(hitori hitori chigau tane wo motsu)
その花を咲かせることだけに
(sono hana wo sakaseru koto dake ni)
一生懸命になればいい
(isshou-kenmei ni nareba ii)

Small flowers, big flowers, all kinds of flowers
You will never find one that’s just like any other
So you don’t need to struggle to be number one
Just be yourself because there’s only one

La la la la...

World's best motorcycle pants are RHOK (search Ebay for them) A guy hired me to take him out for the day. Early into the ride he went down hard. I kept looking back to see if he was keeping up alright....and he was. So I didn't slow down. His accident is a combination of over confidence and you'll notice he turns his head before he crashes....look through the turn...etc..etc. I'll upload a video soon where I talk more about it. I didn't allow comments on this video when I first uploaded it because I know how crash vids on youtube work. You get a bunch of losers who have never ridden before insulting the rider. Heck....if someone uploaded a video of Valentino Rossi crashing while on the street (without people realizing it's him)......you'd have hundreds of comments like "Fucking noob shouldn't even own a bike....learn how to ride!" . LOL

You can tell that his line is a bit unstable from the start. He seems to adjust his line multiple times through each bend. He should have realized that he wasn't taking the corners smoothly and backed off. I didn't realize this as I couldn't watch him long enough to see while being in front.

Partially because of this day I focused more on safety for my June Tour and it seemed to help. We didn't have a single crash for my June 2012 tour.

Another thing to note is that right before the corner that he crashes on I slow down a bit.....but he doesn't seem to......the gap between us becomes shorter right before the crash. Meaning he took that specific corner at a higher rate of speed than myself.

He broke his leg in a few places. He was amazingly optimistic and never seemed bothered or even complained about the incident. His biggest mistake was over confidence which isn't such a bad thing......and his attitude was the best about the accident. I have a lot of respect for him.
