＂恶性循环＂的感动

以下的状况，相信你一点都不会陌生：

查看电邮时，看到了一封注明：FW: Read this amazing love story 的转载邮件。打开一看, 全文如下：

"He met her on a party. She was so outstanding, many guys chasing after her, while he so normal, nobody paid attention to him. At the end of the Party, he invited her to have coffee with him. She was surprised, but due to being polite, she promised.

They sat in a nice coffee shop. He was too nervous to say anything, she felt uncomfortable. She thought, 'Please, let me go home....'

Suddenly he asked the waiter, 'Would you please give me some salt? I'd like to put it in my coffee.' Everybody stared at him, so strange! His face turned red. But still, he put the salt in his coffee and drank it.

She asked him curiously, 'Why you have this hobby?' He replied, 'When I was a little boy, I was living near the sea, I like playing in the sea, I could feel the taste of the sea, just like the taste of the salty coffee. Now every time I have the salty coffee, I always think of my childhood, think of my hometown, I miss my hometown so much, I miss my parents who are still living there.'

While saying that tears filled his eyes. She was deeply touched. That's his true feeling, from the bottom of his heart. A man who can tell out his homesickness, he must be a man who loves home, cares about home, has responsibility of home.

Then she also started to speak, spoke about her faraway hometown, her childhood, her family.

That was a really nice talk, also a beautiful beginning of their story. They continued to date.

She found that actually he was a man who meets all her demands. He had tolerance, was kind hearted, warm, careful. He was such a good person but she almost missed him! Thanks to his salty coffee!

Then the story was just like every beautiful love story . The princess married to the prince, then they were living the happy life...And, every time she made coffee for him, she put some salt in the coffee, as she knew that's the way he liked it.

After 40 years, he passed away, left her a letter which said:

'My dearest,

Please forgive me, forgive my whole life lie. This was the only lie I said to you---the salty coffee.

Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous at that time, actually I wanted some sugar, but I said salt. It was hard for me to change so I just went ahead. I never thought that could be the start of our communication! I tried to tell you the truth many times in my life, but I was too afraid to do that, as I have promises not to lie to you for anything..Now I'm dying, I afraid of nothing so I tell you the truth:

I don't like the salty coffee, what a strange bad taste.. But I have had the salty coffee for my whole life!

Since I knew you, I never feel sorry for anything I do for you. Having you with me is my biggest happiness for my whole life. If I can live for the second time, still want to know you and have you for my whole life, Even though I have to drink the salty coffee again'.

Her tears made the letter totally wet. Someday, someone asked her: what's the taste of salty coffee? 'It's sweet,' she replied.

Love is not 2 forget but 2 forgive, not 2 c but 2 understand, not 2 hear but 2 listen, Not 2 let go but 2 HOLD ON !!!!"

很感人吧？抱歉, 这不是我的重点。请继续往下看：

"If u open this, U have to re post it or you will have bad luck for the rest of your life!!!!!!! Tonight at midnight your true love will realize they like you. Something good will happen to you at approve 1:42pm tomorrow, it could be anywhere. So get ready for the biggest shock of your life. If you break this chain, you will be cursed with relationship problems for the most important time of your life. Send this to 15 people in 15 minutes to carry on the chain... And spare you the emotional stress."

转发出去吗？岂非演变成＂恶性循环＂？不转发出去吗？那我的感情会不会＂厄运连连＂？想必这应该是一般人的反应吧！

对我而言，"睬它(咒语) 都傻"！可是遇上感人肺腑的故事时，我既想和朋友分享，又不想＂殃及池鱼＂，如何是好？

备受这种邮件缠绕多时的我，这次灵机一动! 哈哈，把最后一段＂咒语＂给删掉，再转发出去不就可以了吗？天啊！这么简单的方法，亏我迟至今日才想到！

咦？不对！既然是再简单不过的方法，想必许多人也可以想到吧！但为何大家还要继续转发呢？

是因为渴望爱情的人太多？还是害怕厄运的人更多？我想: 是喜欢恶作剧的人最多！

人比人，气死人；国比国，笑死国?

该不该送第二位太空人上太空? 噢，不！应该是: 该不该让第二位太空人被送上太空? 该不该向俄罗斯买下我国首名太空人升空时乘坐的“联合号”太空船?

別庸人自扰了，反正由不得你我决定，还不如来看这则新闻：

三年后新加坡太空机场提供太空飞行服务(新闻日期:2/20/2006)

据英国《独立报》2006年2月17日报道，美国一家名叫“太空冒险（Space Adventures）”公的司计划在新加坡建立自己的发射塔和宇航员训练中心，并将那里建设成为世界上第一个太空旅游基地。

“太空冒险（Space Adventures）”公司计划耗资1.91亿美元在新加坡樟宜兴建太空机场，预计在2009年提供人们遨游太空的服务。机场除了提供游客可以在距离地球表面一百公里以外的太空进行环绕轨道或太空飞行外，也设置有太空人培训中心和访客中心。如果该计划成功，今后的太空游客将不必再乘坐俄罗斯太空船进行2000万美元一次的太空旅游，因为新太空游的费用将下降到10.2万美元。

太空冒险总裁安德森（Eric Anderson）表示，新加坡地理位置靠近赤道，且又是区域的航空枢纽，因此是作为太空机场相当适合的地点。

新加坡旅游局观光与游轮署长田子沛表示，从旅游收益的角度来看，这计划应该相当不错，同时可以在品牌上提升新加坡的地位，成为太空旅游业的先锋。预估太空机场将在未来10年为新加坡带来30亿美元的收入，并制造5000份工作机会。

请注意：

1. 注资的是美国公司。换句话说：新加坡不需动用国本，也不需要向美国购买什么战机或其它军备，就可以在未来10年等着约30亿美元入袋。还有, 5000份工作机会。

2. 发言的是旅游局观光与游轮署长，而不是什么科學、工藝及革新部长！换句话说：人家是把太空当旅游业来搞。

我尝试说服自己：邻国目光如豆，为了短期的经济收益，竟然不敢发展宇航科技业，而选择宇航旅游业。还是我们脚踏实地，不怕输，愿意花更多物力、财力及人力钻研宇航业。就算是被讥为＂太空旅行者＂也得忍辱负重，因为我们有很重要的使命, 即鼓舞大马青年往宇航领域发展的愿景并激发他们对宇航业发展的兴趣。更重要的是：这是落实2020年成为先进国目标的其中一项強化努力。唯有这样，我们才能摆脱“恐龙时代”, 到时候何止比其他人高几寸，而是高∞尺。

然而，在我脑海中挥之不去的疑问是：

1. 我国的地理位置同样靠近赤道，也算是区域的航空枢纽，况且国土面积是新加坡这块“弹丸之地”的５００倍以上，何以美国“太空冒险（Space Adventures）” 公司没有发现到我国也许更适合作为太空机场的地点？

2. 当太空竞赛从西方蔓延到亚洲来，一直致力于跻身强国行列的邻国何以不发展象征超强国力的宇航科技业？若以综合国力来看，邻国比我们更有能力与强国，如：美国、俄罗斯、中国和印度在宇航科技业一较高低。但是，他们何以选择发展较低端的宇航旅游业，而不是高端的宇航科技业呢？

无可否认，每个国家都有自己的发展蓝图与步伐。怕只怕：我们的一大步，不过是别人的一小步，而我们还混沌不知。

谁会是下一个受害者？

我们的治安问题真的很严重吗？
有些人告诉我们：那是因为媒体过度渲染下的假象。
我也不知道到底有多严重。不过，我倒是在一个星期内听到以下四个个案：

个案（一）

一个女生在退车时，不小心撞着了后面的车子。由于车子只是受了“轻伤”，对方本来同意由肇祸的女生赔偿RM100了事。岂料路人甲乙丙丁却煽风点火说RM100太少，至少要RM300-400。为了息事宁人，女生闻风赶至的男友也答应赔偿RM300-400。说时迟，那时快，另外一群人突然冒出来，把他痛打一顿！女生尖叫求助不果后，只好冲前去抱着男友！结果，那群人才肯罢休。

事发现场是一个Mamak店，在店里喝茶用餐的人很多。噢，忘了告诉你：不远处还有一所警局。

个案（二）
也是一个女生。大概是晚上八点多，她独自开着车子。来到亮起红色的交通灯前，她停下车子。趁着红灯，她拿出手机发送简讯。突然，右边传来震耳欲聋的“砰”一声！转头一看，停在她车子右边的摩托骑士用硬物敲打她的右边车镜（想必是觊觎她手上的那部手机吧）。结果，临危不乱的她直踩油门，头也不回地向前冲！呼，总算逃过一劫！

个案（三）
凌晨两点多，刚下班的一个女生独自开车回家。突然，另一辆车子快速越过她的车子，并且挡住她的去路。车内的男子手持小小的手提电筒，奋力地猛击她的挡风镜，直至大镜裂出两环圈圈才离开。

个案（四）
傍晚七点多，一个女生步出家门，准备上车。一个陌生男子从旁杀出，亮出一把利刀要挟。惊惶失措的女生不慎失足，结果手提电脑就被抢去了！

这些个案，媒体没有机会“渲染”了吧？因为相比奴林、相比利建业、陈丽明、朱玉叶、王丽娟等人，以上的个案纯属“小儿科”。

那么，到底我们的治安问题有多严重？

以前，干案滋事者是私会党党员、匪徒、色狼等“专业”的犯罪分子。现在？任何人都可能，只要他心情不好、喝醉酒、性欲大发或是只要他没有工作、没有钱开饭。

以前，受害者多是家门、车门没上锁者，独自走在阴暗小路或拒绝缴交保护费等人。现在？你我都可能，尽管屋子装置了防盗系统、车子上了锁，尽管是三五成群在光天化日下走在街上。

请告诉我，到底我们的治安问题有多严重？

那么，有人也许会问：到底警察都去了哪里？
答案是：警察都很忙。
忙什么？
君不见有很多驾驶者闯红灯、讲手机、双线超车、超速驾驶吗？警察当然是忙着“抄牌”咯！

重新出发！

最后一次写部落格是2005年10月23日。

虽然半途而废，但是好歹也有始有终哦！（嘻嘻，因为“始”与“终”都是猷荃代笔）

两年来，只要有人说：“你的blog。。。”, 我便会紧接着说：“是是是。。。”，然后，马上转题！

总而言之，停笔有多久，就被骂了多久。

结果，想“重出江湖”时，却记不起用户代号及密码了。于是，只好重新登记一个户口。

坦白说，不知道会写多久。只是觉得当脚步"超速"，甚至超越脑部时，我感到莫名的恐慌。此时此刻，我相信文字是最好的沉淀方式，也是最好的回忆捕捉者。所以我尝试。

（谢谢宇晖帮忙登记及设计，这次我会牢牢记住用户代号及密码。不过，宇晖，你可要继续教我这个“电脑白痴”及“科技冷感患者”更多技术喔，好让我爱上这“冷冰冰”的电脑。）
