My color is from Heaven
Heaven likes it white
White is the jade steps in the doorway
It needs no color for trampling
Got wings from the sunshine

Why the United States people are not your enemy?
Is the United States people your emeny?
No, they are your friends. They need your help.
Why do they need help?
Because they were bewitched.
First they thought life is to seek pleasure.
Then they were tightened by a false democracy. They will never know who is ruling them.
And then they were engaged in many wars: not to protect the country but to consume the products of military manufacturers.
They need drugs to help them not to think.
They are a poor people*.
*Hotel California Lyrics
On a dark desert highwayCool wind in my hairWarm smell of colitasRising up through the airUp ahead in the distanceI saw a shimmering lightMy head grew heavy and my sight grew dimI had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorwayI heard the mission bellAnd I was thinking to myself"This could be Heaven or this could be Hell"Then she lit up a candleAnd she showed me the wayThere were voices down the corridorI thought I heard them say
Welcome to the Hotel CaliforniaSuch a lovely place (such a lovely place)Such a lovely facePlenty of room at the Hotel CaliforniaAny time of year (any time of year)You can find it here
Her mind is Tiffany-twistedShe got the Mercedes BenzShe got a lot of pretty, pretty boysThat she calls friendsHow they dance in the courtyardSweet summer sweatSome dance to rememberSome dance to forget
So I called up the Captain"Please bring me my wine"He said, 'We haven't had that spirit hereSince 1969"And still those voices are calling from far awayWake you up in the middle of the nightJust to hear them say
Welcome to the Hotel CaliforniaSuch a lovely place (such a lovely place)Such a lovely faceThey livin' it up at the Hotel CaliforniaWhat a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)Bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceilingThe pink champagne on iceAnd she said, 'We are all just prisoners hereOf our own device"And in the master's chambersThey gathered for the feastThey stab it with their steely knivesBut they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember, I wasRunning for the doorI had to find the passage backTo the place I was before"Relax, " said the night man"We are programmed to receiveYou can check out any time you likeBut you can never leave"

and,
I wish someone would tell me why there are so many mirrors. It is interesting.

Should I shoot into the head?
Use a sword of no thickness to enter the hollow. 以無厚入有間.
This is the second method of the Zhuang Zi Art of War.
It's a wonderful moment to watch the balloon show recently*.
If you dare to touch my baby, I will shoot your head.
And of course, I will not shoot my baby.
The question is, am I brave enough to shoot your head?
Do I have the love to protect my baby?
Am I wise enough to do the most suitable things?
Do I have the love for the people?
Yes, I will love the Chinese people as well as the United States people.
I love you always.
If I need to shoot anything, I will shoot into the hollow.
But where is the hollow?
The hollow is inside the head.
The United States people is a bewitched people........
Where is the target?
It's such a wonderful moment to ponder about all this, at the beginning of the Spring.

Who would shoot down the McCarthy plane to Taiwan?
To solve any problem, you need to go one level higher. The thing will be very clear.
The above question is not a question. It is a signal to tell where is the point.
It is such an interesting moment.
You will see the total scenario, and you will see what is the outcome.
The outline of the enemy war plan is in your pocket now.

A couple was sitting comfortably in a swing chair, it was admirable. Here is a carol for them.
200 years were too short for the loving couple
3000 miles were too long for their grey hair
And this swing chair was just fit
They have enough space for an adorable swing

Why are the angels sad?
9420 Why are the angels sad? 20230126
The angels are sad because of the fear people are suffering from the paper tiger.
It was the source of all the problems on earth.
There are no love and no concern whenever the fear arises.
The problem is not with the paper tiger.
The problem is in the fear.
Sometimes, a shout could frighten the paper tiger away.
But there was no shout. There were only shy away fears.
And we need to remember Bian He, or Kua Fu. They were not fear. Because they are looking forward. Because they do not want to live in the past. Because they prefer to die in the future.
Sometimes you only need to smile.
The angels sent only flowers.
The flowers could make the paper tiger friendly.
Because we need friendly atmosphere.
We need to build our home on earth in a peaceful time.
And then we can strike forward to prepare ourselves for a better evolution.
We would all become angels by the future evolution.
Can we turn the paper tiger more friendly?
Yes, I suppose so.

What is first important in the Taiwan Issue
9416 What is first important in the Taiwan Issue 202300113
It needs Four things to settle the Taiwan question.
First is to share the written language.
Second is to share the Chinese Spirit.
Third is to share resources.
Fourth is a war, and it is important to determine how should the war be fought to guarantee a victory, if it is unavoidable.
All these four things are in two aspects: soft and hard.
The first three is soft, and fourth is a war, but the war can be not so hard if it is in a clever hand to handle it. It needs some further explanation later.
Let’s get started from the first three.
No. 1 to share the written language
Some people refused to use the same written language in the Taiwan question. Maybe there’s other reasons behind it. But if you’re trying to write a letter to your friend in Taiwan, and if you are sincere and hope that things could be solved successfully, you will use tradition Chinese ink and writing brush, and you will use proper words to write in proper forms same with the Taiwan compatriots.
To unite all people in China, Emperor Qin Shihuang had ordered “Standardization of vehicle wheels and unification of written languages”(書同文，車同軌) ”Shu tong wen, Che tong gui”. It proved to be effective in the wars to unite China.
Can you use simplified written language to write “We are of the same blood and the same written language” (我們是同文同種的) ? It is contradictory to your own mind if you wrote like that.
When the words (們) and (種) in its simplified form appears in the retina inside the eyes, there will be a huge exclaim. It meant we are not sharing the same written language. (我們不是同文同種的)。
It is a must to write in the same written language in the Taiwan question.
*
The Chinese languages is a pride of the Chinese culture. It should be shared with all the Chinese, including the Taiwan compatriots.
It is the fastest language in the world. Chinese can type faster and read faster than most of the world’s other languages.
However, reading is far more important than typing. Because reading is the essential element in thinking. Thinking is a strange function in the mind, it needs no language to think sometimes. However, you can think better with the help of Chinese language because many written words are like images in the brain. It is the images that flows and combines. The images were in the right side of the brain most of the time. Spelling languages need the logical left brain to work on them. There is a huge difference when you are using your right side or left side to think. Some of the logical people did use their left side more than their right side, though the left and right side cannot not be completely separated.
When the Chinese language was simplified in the early fifties, the theory of resolution is not so clear then. People in the past did not know that a complete image of a word could influence the reading speed and thus the process in thoughts. The early concern is about writing speed and easy learning. Early people do not have any idea about the resolution in retina. They do not know higher resolution is important to read, to understand, and to memorize.
All these theories have become secondary now. Because it’s in an important time of life and death in the Taiwan question.
There might be blood, and there might be failure. Anything could go wrong. Please do not think it is easy or there will be a hundred percent success waiting for the lucky and lazy boy. There is no reason not to do this. There is no bad result using the high-resolution written language, there is no other bad side of the issue. It is a tool to unite all Chinese in the whole world.
Important is to win the mind. If you do have the minds with you, lands will follow, wars will be won. It is a must to win the minds first.
To win the ears before the mind is vital. If people are not listening, everything will be lost, including the Taiwan island and difficult international relations will come afterwards.
All Chinese knew their common hero Cang Jie. When the name of Cang Jie was mentioned, ears would turn on you immediately.
Cang Jie had created a tool for the Chinese to think.
Chinese language is the only non-spelling language in the whole world. And it was said that this language is using the right brain. it is easier to comprehend and to search deep into the inner side.
The Chinese were smart not to change their own language into a spelling language not long ago. However, it’s a disadvantage for the Chinese to simplify their written language. Because writing is not a problem anymore. As the Chinese had invented many different ways to input the Chinese into phones and computers, writing issue is settled, reading issue is not. By using simplified Chinese, there are fewer output elements in the characters. It is not easy to read the simplified Chinese like the tradition one. A simplified word is just like a low-resolution photograph. And low-resolution is not acceptable in the modern world. Low-resolution is a hindrance to reading and a hindrance to thinking. It is completely unacceptable for the future development of China in the long run. Taiwan question is but a short-term issue, written language is a big issue in the long-term development process.
There are only three ways of language arrangements in the world. One is going right like the English. The other is going left like the Arabian. The third is Chinese. It is going down. And the Chinese characters are designed to read downwards. If vertically designed characters are lined up horizontally for reading, it wastes time. It is brain consuming.
Due to practical problems in the phones and computers, the line-up issue can be settled a little later when the higher-resolution written language is accepted by all Chinese.
Taiwan question could be easier to handle when communication methods are accepted. It needs a change to save blood. If all the minds are united together, Taiwan question is settled and the future culture problem is also settled.
If the compatriots in Taiwan saw that the written language is to return to the high-resolution status, they will be happy and atmosphere will change dramatically.
No. 2 to share the Chinese Spirit.
One of the point is that it needs to be lenient. Do not push. A relaxed environment is most important.
And this is a very serious debate.
A relaxed environment is the wish for many. However, there will have no true friend if the same spirit is not shared. No matter how relaxing the situation is or how lenient things can be. Being relaxed is not to give up the Spirit. There must be a soul always.
Having no spirit is the worst thing for a country. The country will be going nowhere.
Foreign power will sneak in silently. China will be a follower to the western leadership.
What is the difference? A Western spirit or a Chinese Spirit?
Western spirit is under dominance of the left brain. They tend to use logic and language to think. They would compose all ideas into one single formula. That's why western people have a bible while Chinese people do not have one. Chinese spirit is composed of many stories. It was created by the people and will be growing in the future.
The following is from the Chinese spirit. And this spirit is certainly acceptable to the Taiwan compatriots.
1. The spirit of searching to find out the purpose of the universe and human.(Kua Fu)
2. The spirit of helping and loving and knowing why we are here. (Nu Wa)
3. The spirit to fight for an ideal.(Jade)
First, you will see a spirit of searching. People need to know why. The first question of Kua Fu is more than where does the sun go. It's about everything. It's about how the universe grows. Other questions will be coming after the first one. If you wish to know where does the sun go, then you will need to know where are we humans going.
Some of the recent politics are very much concentrated on the external structure of societies and property distribution, etc. It is better to talk less politics with the Taiwan compatriots. Because it is external. More important is the inner things. The universe is not balanced. Many people cannot even to support themselves. They need help. This is the discovery of Nu Wa.
She had solved the question of why we are here actually.
We are not balanced. Some smart and able, some weak and disable. They need help. And we all need to love. Why we are here in this universe? We need to balance the universe. Hence we need to love each other and help those in need. It is the inner voice from Nu Wa.
What is a human being looking after? Does he want balance, or the beauty behind the balance? Will there be even higher value behind the secret of beauty?
It was at this point another philosopher appeared in Chinese spirit. He is Bian He.
Bian He did not say anything about the stone. Later people would think he was looking for some inner secret of beauty. But there might be more. He might be looking at the secret of even higher values, perhaps. What is a beauty? What is the higher value behind the beauty? Future minds will tell us more.
Humans need more than a strength. Humans need to know. And the secret is like a piece of Jade. Some people are willing to be a broken jade rather than a piece of good tile. There is a much higher dream within the jade.
When it comes as a great novel, “The dream of a red chamber” would tell us more.
People will see beauty in the Chinese heroism. It was shown in the wars against the Japanese invasion. It was shown in a new China. And it was shown recently. There are so many heroes in China. In the recent fight against the virus covid-19, numerous doctors, nurses had dedicated their own life. They have a spirit built in the soul long ago.
Taiwan question is not an easy one.
Someone does not like the term “Chinese Spirit”. They avoided the term like ghost. They would use army and bombs to solve the Taiwan problem. They do not like to talk about mind matters, they prefer to use arms. They said the mind is not practical. It is the sad side of the story.
No. 3 to share the resources
How much money is needed to solve the Taiwan issue?
Now it is a practical question.
If you are not sharing the written language, and if you are not sharing the spirit, now will you be willing to pay?
It is the most difficult part, actually.
Will a sum of US$7,200,000 be enough to share with the Taiwan Compatriots?
It needs not a prove to tell that money is useful. But to use it wisely is not easy. How much is enough? What are the goods to buy with the money?
In the year 1867, the United States had used a sum of seven million plus two hundred thousand dollars to buy the land of Alaska. Almost all the United States people was against it by then. Alaska was a cold and completely useless land in that time. And it was a true and cold fact.
It tells us that you need to have a clear mind to decide things yourself. People might be using excuses from other directions to oppose it.
Does it need a long time to prove it? Yes. Now there is US nuclear war base under the Alaska water, and lots of oil plus benefits of fishery. And it was once the dream land for gold diggers.
And now let us get back to the Taiwan issue.
Who is the guy you are dealing with? In case you need to pay, who is the buyer? And that is the question for the next issue.
NO. 4 a war
The only question is:
Who is our enemy?
If that question is answered properly, and if all the estimation is well prepared, a war is sure to win.
The small one can beat the big one, why?
The first question is: Will you dare to challenge the big one?
People are reluctant to answer the question. They are reluctant to challenge the right enemy.
Because, they are fear.
They choose to challenge someone seems to be their enemy and actually the one is not the real enemy.
They were fighting in vain when the real enemy is staying behind to hand over ammunition and arms for the mercenaries paid by him.
If you need to throw a bomb, where?
Will you throw a bomb at Taipei, or Washington?
If you have that insight and that bravery, you will win.
Move the war field out of Taiwan, and drive away the enemy.
Tell them, if you dare to put in the hand, I will shoot your head.
Who is your enemy? The hand or the head?
When your ships and airplanes arrive Taiwan, there should be welcoming cheers, but no gun shots.

What is the Spirit of China
9415
What is in the spirit of China? 20230111
The following five people do have a hint.
They are:
1, Kua Fu.
2, Nu Wa.
3, Bian He.
4, Sun Wu Kong.
5, The unknown writer of “Dream of a Red Chamber”
Kua Fu was the hero runningl after the sun trying to know the secret of where does the sun goes.
Nu Wa believed that the universe is not balanced. The heaven must be tilted. And duty of being a human is to balance the uneven universe. She must be the greatest philosopher at all times.
And the third person is Bian He. He had found the secret of the beautiful. (Please refer to the next article here: * 9414 What if you have found the secret of beauty? 20230111)
The fourth hero is Sun Wu Kong. He travelled all over the world to find the secret about life. And he had found it. Maybe he was the first evolved human being.
And a fifth person is in a book. The book is “Dream of a Red Chamber”. The hero in that book maintained that he is a stone himself. He is a stone of Jade. He had shown all the secrets of the Chinese civilization in one book.
People had tried hard to figure out what will the future of China be.
There is a hint hidden in the stories.
What if you have found the secret of beauty?？
9414 What if you have found the secret of beauty? 20230111
What will you do?
Don't be too excited about this. Because it would claim your life.
And this is the secret of China, too.
The inspiration came from an old story about Bian He.
Who is Bian He?
Bian He is the first Chinese hero who thought that he must have found the secret of beauty.
He had found a large piece of stone somewhere. He thought that the beautiful is within the stone. He decided to dedicate the stone to the emperor.
He had not said anything about the jade or the content inside the stone. He had found something extremely important and he would use his own blood to work for it.
The emperor ordered his solder to cut off one of Bian He’s leg and threw him out of the palace with the stone.
He must be a very determined person.
He came to the palace again, because the emperor was dead. Another emperor was ruling the country.
The second emperor did the same thing. He ordered to have his other leg be cut off. He was thrown out of the palace with the stone the second time.
Bian He dared not to enter the palace again the third time. He was just weeping outside the palace.
What is inside the stone? Suddenly a question appeared.
The third emperor ordered to have the stone cut open, and found the most beautiful piece of jade in Chinese history inside the stone.
History did not mention the final fate of Bian He. The piece of Jade was lost somewhere sometime during a war. The piece of Jade was never seen again. What remains is the image of beauty, which is still there in the minds of the Chinese people. It will not be forgotten. Yet it was always a deep puzzle in the minds that why Bian He wanted to dedicate the stone to the emperors, and what was in his mind by that time.
History had lapsed for another two thousand years until a great Novel was written by an unknown person and the book is “The story of a Stone”, which also is known as “Dream of a Red Chamber”. The book is another puzzle in Chinese history. Only a few people would agree that the book is about the determination of the jade which is the secret of beauty. And the secret of beauty might be part of the Chinese Spirit.
One last word about the great Philosopher Nu Wa, She had found that the universe is not balanced and need to balance it with a material.
She used stone.
That might be the hint for the unknown writer to write "The story of a stone", i.e., "Dream of a red Chamber".
And the unknown writers are not Cao Xue Qin and Gao E the merchant, which was the fabricated version of Hu Shi under extremely strong political considerations from the United States. The writer is an unknown person who had determined not to release his own name.

What is the thing for us humans to fight for?
9413
What is the thing for us humans to fight for? 2023.1.6
Many people would say eternal peace is worth to fight for. But there is no one who could tell you how can eternal peace be achieved.
Naive people would think that when human beings becomes really rich, then they will not fight. Yet it is never true. The more money people have, The more they will become selfish.
Money is nothing to do with eternal peace.
The only thing that can bring in eternal peace is: evolution.
And I wish to stress that it could be internal evolution to help us humans to have a better future.
By internal evolution, I meant the connection of minds.
I expect future human beings can read each other's minds easily without using languages.
They could use their minds better than their eyes.
They could be much more smarter than present human beings.
I expect all minds can be linked up in the future.
That many humans are governed by a huge mind. We could be million times smarter than now.
And that could be the base of eternal peace.
Eternal peace is the result of a huge wisdom.
When future humans are really wise, there could be no problem handling daily necessities.
Everyone could be rich. And money is meaningless by that time. Because we need to know what to do with our new abilities.
By the time you need a wisdom to govern yourself more than now. And you will have a wisdom better than now.
And I expect this kind of internal evolution is not a far away future . It could be very near.
It is something worth to work for. It is something important to fight for.
For the time being, only very few human beings can understand this point. But it could be a very near future for all of us to understand it.
It means we need to improve our minds. It means we need to improve our feelings. And many of us do have that kind of feelings already. Many of the human beings do have a better mind to understand each other.
That is the target of evolution.
If you do have this feeling, please do not hesitate to share with others. Because all humans should be like that. Because we are evolving towards this goal.

Escape Tortoise Escape

A note from the author
I have come to the thought that if people nowadays do really understand the meaning of helping a friend, they must have entered the next stage of life already. They would be freed from the dirty politics and find a better way to serve the people.
Escape of the Tortoise
A story by Lee Chard
When the bird saw the tortoise, he had just slipped into a stone pit accidentally. He tried very hard to climb out, but the stone fence was taller than his body, he can only have felt upside down. He tried desperately to turn over with his long neck to try again and felt the next time.
The bird said, “Sir, can I do anything to help you?”
The tortoise said, “Oh please, can you bring me a stepping stone? If I can step a little higher, I am sure I can climb out.”
The bird said, “Oh yes, I will.”
She flew immediately away to search for a stepping stone. When she came back, she spitted out a piece of small pebble the size of a sand from her beak. That was all she could carry.
The tortoise said, “Oh, I am sorry, I ought to know a stepping stone is too heavy for you.”
The bird said, “Never mind, I will go again.”
The bird had flown an unknown number of times. She carried back only a small amount of sand. The tortoise tried to pile up the sand, but it was futile. The bird wanted to go again though she was very tired.
The tortoise said, “Oh, please don’t. It is too much for you. I don’t want to waste your life to save me. I will try some other means to do that. “
The bird said, “You just wait a little more. I will go again.”
The tortoise said, “Oh no, I will dig sand from the ground. “The tortoise used his strong beak to dig on the stone ground, the stone did loose some sand for him. However, he was bleeding heavily after a few trials.
The bird said, “Oh no, that won’t work. Let me go to find some more sand for you. “
Without waiting answer from the tortoise, the bird flew quickly away. The tortoise could only shout, “Don’t, it would kill you.”
When the bird flew back, the tortoise pleaded with the bird in tears. He said, “You are an angel. But I don’t want to exchange my life with yours. I will not go out even you bring back a ton of sand. I shall never step on your sand.”
The bird said, “You are an angel too. I will stay here together with you.”
When they were looking at each other with tearful eyes, no one can tell whether they were sad or happy. They were both trembling like some electric had shocked their minds.
And suddenly a sparkle sprang from their eyes almost at the same time.
The bird said, maybe we will try other things.
The turtle said, “Yes.”
The bird flew again. She brought back a piece of branch. And then another piece of branch. Then another. She would build a nest near the stone wall. She brought back a large piece of foam plastic finally.
When the turtle was out of the trap of the stone pit, both of them were in a very special ecstasy. The bird danced on the back of the turtle.
The wise pair had become very good friends forever.

艱苦奮鬥需要什麼條件?
9409
一位英國作家曾經預言中國的未來。他說，如果共產黨放棄了清教徒式的艱苦奮鬥，從戰車中走下來，走進酒樓和妓院等地方，一切就會照舊。
而這歷來是中國人最關心的一點。放棄了艱苦奮鬥，生活誘惑就會淹進來。有人說這是人性。物質的引誘，會改變一個人的根本生活宗旨。
到底是不是人性呢？智慧是不是人性的最基本部分？人是被智慧所引導，還是被物慾所引導的？
當大家都顧著掙錢，深恐再度貧窮，社會又再動亂，就會忘記了真正的危險。
這是什麼？這就是哲學。有讀者來信說不明白，難道哲學真是會影響生活嗎？甚至哲學真是會影響中國的前途嗎？
當然這是肯定的。思想錯誤，道路也一定錯。
所以面面兼顧是最難的。有人說，這好比彈鋼琴，到處都要點一下。但彈鋼琴不衹是要到處都點一下，彈鋼琴是要有主題的，而主題是跟著人的靈魂走的。有心是沒有用的。還要把這顆心組織起來，把創意放進樂譜裏。每一個點，都是和內在最深處相連的。點中了很愉快，點錯了。內心就不會安定。跟著下來，一錯再錯。這首曲子就彈不好了。
所以，最可怕不是核子戰爭，而是敵人在暗中操縱你的意識。當幾乎全部掌握權力的文化官員，都是敵人棋子的時候，大局就危險了。

Some notes about the dream
9408
Dear Mr. Lee Chard,
I got a little feeling from your dream. I hope to leave some notes for you, it may be useful in the future.
People in our car didn't know where we were going. Some of us are concerned with time only. They are worring about the time to leave.
But I don't think it matters. It doesn't matter if you leave or not.
What matters is what we do.
But now, everything seems to be wrong. Because we used the wrong road map in the wrong place.
There is no Robinson Road in Macau. This colony style road will not be in Macau.
We can't stick to the old map anymore. We must find a new map.
Maps are not important. Because the goal is more important than the map.
The question is, where is the goal?
We are lucky because we are human. We can decide for ourselves where to go. No one can tell us where to go, only us.
We are really very lucky.
Because we may have additional assistance. It may be that the aid is useful. We don't know where the aid is coming from. We just know that we can refuse or accept help.
Help is from a key.
The key seemed flimsy, it was a red key made of plastic.
Humans are generally sensitive to color. They will associate color with politics.
Although we know we may use the wrong formula to search for places to go to, the weakness of human nature is to persist. Stick with the old formula, okay?
The key is not necessarily a political indicator, nor is it a cultural indicator.
It can be anything that can help us.
Why is this red?
We all know our lips are red. We can have different colored hair, skin or eyes. But our lips can only have one color. Our lips are red.
That is to say, our hearts are red. This is an inspiration from an old novel "Dream of the Red Chamber".
Could there be something beyond a formula and a paradigm of thought?
Will the red key help us find where we want to go?
We can trust that there is more than one goal.
When we reach a platform high enough to allow us to see further away, we can extend our destination.
First we need to find a door. We may find a road outside the door. At the end of the road, there may be a shore. We may reach another continent. To the end of another continent, we may find more.
It's exciting because it's endless and we can decide to find a beautiful place to go.
And even better than that: we are working together and moving forward together.
Does that mean no one is leaving? We are all in the car. No one left.
We used to think that we are going high up in heaven, or down to the hell. We used to think vertically. We had never thought of an all dimensional goal. So we'll go to more than just one place. We will go to everywhere. Or, we are the universe and we'll exist in all places.
No one will leave the Universe.
This is evolution.
We can go on and on, we just keep evolving.
What is certain is that we are one with the universe. We are advancing, the planet is advancing, both are developing.
There is no such thing as extinction. Even planets cannot be destroyed, only reborn.
Dinosaurs are not extinct animals.
They still live in you and me. They just changed, not extinct.
Let's go back to the red key. That is our heart. We need keys to open our hearts. It's that simple.
Dear Mr. Lee Chard,
Hopefully we can go hand in hand.
I'm your friend always,
Lee Chard

李察寓言：羅便臣道
9407 夢往何處 20221124
我要記住這個夢。
也許我會明白的。
夢中從一個老太婆那裡買來了一輛舊車。
那是老太婆丈夫的車。 似乎是一輛黑色的大眾汽車。 但它更要大一些。
當我爬上駕駛座時，我身後已經坐了幾個乘客。
這輛車很舊，似乎很脆弱， 然而非常乾淨。 以前的駕駛人似乎很愛這輛車，我相信他從前一定是位出色的車手。
這輛車的前面儀表板上，有多一個特殊的鑰匙孔。 鑰匙是紅色的，好像是塑料，是一根複雜的方形鑰匙。 我試圖將紅色鑰匙插入孔中。 但是老太婆阻止了我。
她告訴我這是有其他用途的，她向我解釋了幾句。 但我聽不懂她的意思。 後來我用另一把鑰匙，在另外的鎖匙孔啟動了汽車。
汽車向前挪移了幾寸。
我聽到一個男人在我的座位後面尖叫。 當時我記得駕駛座在左邊。 我是不慣開這樣的左撇子車的。
那人尖叫著說是車夾著了他。 其實他的意思是説，汽車㚒著了他的銀行支票。 我說，你為什麼把銀行支票放在窗外？ 銀行支票似乎被夾在附近牆上的某條縫裡了。
那男子費了一點功夫，從牆上取回銀行支票。 然後我才意識到，這條街很窄。
我問乘客：你們要去哪裡？ 我要送你們去哪裡？ 沒有人回答。 他們似乎扺達就會示意下車的。 他們不願意説明目的地。
我不知如何地忽然想到，我們要去羅便臣道。
我對自己說，那我們就去羅便臣道好了。 但我還是發現了奇怪的事情。
我們好像在澳門，絕不是在香港。 澳門沒有羅便臣道的。
然而，車子已經啟動了。 雖然我沒有意識到，其實是沒有這條路的。
車似乎在某個陡峭的山坡上走。 我使勁踩剎車，讓下坡的車慢一點。 車離牆壁只有幾寸。
我在街上轉了又轉。 我努力從記憶中尋找羅便臣道的方向。
汽車有時在上坡行駛。 我用力踏加速器，根本不像是汽車的踏板，像是自行車的踏板。 我試了又試，突然奏效了。 汽車獲得動力再次上坡。
就在這時候，我突然醒了過來。 我意識到這是一個夢。 但我無法離開這個夢， 只能躺在床上讓它在腦子裡一遍又一遍地轉。
我不斷地問自己：我們要去哪裡？ 為什麼沒有人會告訴我目的地？ 我該如何將這些人帶到那個地方？
但是我發現，車上多了一個鑰匙孔真的很有趣。
我要用這個紅色塑料鑰匙做什麼？ 如果我將鑰匙插入那個孔會怎樣？ 額外的鑰匙可以幫到我嗎？
我從任何地方都沒有答案。 我只能記著那個夢境。 夢結束得如此突然，或者我需要多些時間才明白的。

Robinsons Road
9407 Dreaming to Somewhere 20221124
I thought I need to write down this dream to remember it.
Maybe I can get some meaning from it later.
I brought an old car from an old woman in the dream.
Actually, it was the old woman's husband's car. It seemed to be a black Volkswagen. But it was a little bigger.
When I climbed into the drivers seat, there were already a few passengers sitting behind me.
The car was very old. It seemed to be flimsy. Yet it was very clean. The driver before managed it so well that I have to admit he must be an excellent driver.
The car had got a special key hole in the front panel. The key was red. And it seemed to be plastic and complicated in a square shape. I tried to insert the red key into the hole. But the old woman stopped me.
She told me that it was for some other purpose. She explained to me in a few words. But I couldn't get her meaning. So I used the other key to start the car.
The car moved a few inches forward.
I heard a man screamed behind my seat. I remembered that the driver's seat was in the left side. And it was not my habbit to drive in such a left handed car.
The man screamed that the car had caught him. Actually he meant the car had caught his bank cheque. And I said, why you put your bank cheque outside the window? It seemed the bank cheque had been caught somewhere in holes at the nearby wall.
The man tried with some effort to retrieve the bank cheque from the wall. Then I realized that the street was narrow.
And then I asked the passengers: Where are you going? Where am I to take you to? And no one answered. It seemed that they would drop off only by signals. They were reluctant to tell me their destination.
Suddenly it occurred to me from somewhere that we were going to Robinsons Road.
I said to myself, very well then, we should be going to Robinsons Road. And I found strange things later.
That we seemed to be in Macau and definitely not in Hong Kong. There isn't any Robinson's Road in Macau.
However, the car had been started. And I didn't realize that there was no Robinson's road by that time.
It seemed to be in a steep hill somewhere. I pushed my brake hard to slow the car running downhill. It was only inches from the walls.
I turned and turned around the streets. I tried hard from my memory to search the directions of Robinson's Road.
The car was running uphill sometimes. And I pushed the fuel peddle so hard that it was not to be a peddle from a car, but a peddle from a bicycle. I tried and tried and suddenly the peddle worked. The car gained momentum to move uphill again.
It was by this time I suddenly woke up. I realized that it was a dream. But I could not leave the dream. I could only let it running in my brain again and again for a while when I was lying in the bed.
I kept asking myself: Where are we going? Why no one would tell me destinations? And how am I to drive these people to the place?
However I had found it really interesting that I had one more extra key hole in the car.
What am I to use this plastic red key for? What if I insert the key into that hole? Can the extra key help me?
I have no answer from anywhere. I just remembered the dream. The dream ended so abruptly that I need to have some more time to figure out the meaning of it.
The end.
