今天吃完晚饭,朋友说一起去超市!回来时,房东告诉我老爸来电话找我!马上给家回了电话,老爸接的!问了我过的怎么样,问了问同学帮我带的东西收到了吗?最后稍微提了一下学习!其实重点应该是最后一项,老爸怕给我压力。就问了一句!整个谈话,只有不到两分钟!电话一挂,我他妈的后悔啊!光听老爸说了,连个好也没有问!21的人了,我他妈的这都不会!其实,我和老爸的话总是不多。除了老爸喝醉酒后,才会跟我不停的讲道理和说他的奋斗史!有很长的一段时间,很羡慕那些跟老爸老妈沟通得很好的同学!尤其是来了澳洲之后,更是如此!因为在这边,孩子与父母就像是哥们!可是也就是一瞬间,我改变了看法!也不知道原因!感觉不用于言更好!彼此有默契,不用语言照样有无限量的亲情!顺其自然!此乃上策!

雷吉是Reggae的音译!雷吉音乐作为一种音乐形式是在60年代发展起来的,有一定的宗教色彩!很多歌是为反战而写!我听Reggae是从一个牙买加传奇歌手BOb Marley起的,像Dylan一样,Bob Marley从没有卖出过多少唱片。他赚取了数以百万的金钱,但大部分被别人窃取,他又会送给别人很多。他被批评开名贵的汽车,但他可以把车停在金斯顿任何一个贫民窟里而不用摇上车窗,没有任何人会去碰它。1981年,Bob Marley去世后,他的生日被确定为牙买加的一个节日。1977年,在脚受伤的同时,它也被诊断为患有癌症,但是他拒绝任何治疗措施,直到1981年去世。他曾被授予联合国和平楷模的荣誉,有5百万非洲人在1978年受益于它给予的人道援助,几乎可以和米兰的教皇并驾齐驱。这位曾经先后和7个女人生育了11个孩子的Reggae教父在全世界的专辑销量高达几千万! 下面是这位传奇人物的一首经典《No Woman,No Cry》的歌词!歌词很简单,但发人深省!
No woman no cry Bob Marley
no woman no cry, no woman no cry
no woman no cry, no woman no cry
seh, seh, said i remember when we used to sit
in a government yard in trenchtown
obba, obba, observing the hypocrites
as the would mingle with the good people we meet
good friends we have, oh, good friends we've lost
along the way
in this great future,
you can't forget your past
so dry your tears, i seh
no woman no cry, no woman no cry
little darling, don't shed no tears, no woman no cry
seh, seh, said i remember when we use to sit
in the government yard in trenchtown
and then georgie would make the fire lights
as it was, log would burnin' through the nights
then we would cook cornmeal porridge
of which i'll share with you
my feet is my only carriage
so i've got to push on thru
oh, while i'm gone
everything 's gonna be alright, everything 's gonna be alright
everything 's gonna be alright, everything 's gonna be alright
everything 's gonna be alright, everything 's gonna be alright
everything 's gonna be alright, everything 's gonna be alright
no woman no cry, no, no woman no cry
oh, my little sister
don't shed no tears
no woman no cry
i remember when we use to sit
in the government yard in trenchtown
and then georgie would make the fire lights
as it was, log would burnin' through the nights
then we would cook cornmeal porridge
of which i'll share with you
my feet is my only carriage
so i've got to push on thru
oh, while i'm gone
no woman no cry, no, no woman no cry
oh, my little darlin'
don't shed no tears
no woman no cry
little darlin', don't shed no tears
no woman no cry
little sister, don't shed no tears
no woman no cry
