海灘

老電影了。雖然這片影評很差，但我覺得明明就很不錯﹝絕對不是因為我喜歡李奧的緣故﹞。

人還是不能待在comfort zone阿。有時明明已經逼自己往前走了但沒多久就又會退縮回自己的那個小小避風港。說躲避風港還好聽的，講難聽點就是“躲回媽媽的懷抱別出來混”。

這不是在說實體概念的事，而是在說心靈概念的事。

這電影李奧納多為旁白的自序展開劇情。故事背景在東南亞的泰國，而東南亞這地方一向都不是我旅遊的首選，原因大概就是衛生跟治安這方面的事。不過如果當地人都活得好好的，這似乎也不是去限制自己好理由。

The only downer is that everyone's got the same idea. We all travel thousands of miles just to watch TV and check in to somewhere with all the comforts of home, and you gotta ask yourself, what is the point of that?

人到了異鄉仍是追求原有的習慣和生活方式，在泰國的旅館裡看著西方的電影，就連到了電影裡面所為的Paradise，島上的人仍是對外界的物質生活有強烈依賴 ─ 電池、沐浴乳、乳液、洗髮乳、肥皂等等

And me, I still believe in paradise. But now at least I know it's not some place you can look for, 'cause it's not where you go. It's how you feel for a moment in your life when you're a part of something, and if you find that moment... it lasts forever...

Trust me, it's paradise. This is where the hungry come to feed. For mine is a generation that circles the globe and searches for something we haven't tried before. So never refuse an invitation, never resist the unfamiliar, never fail to be polite and never outstay the welcome. Just keep your mind open and suck in the experience. And if it hurts, you know what? It's probably worth it.

如果有些嘗試或傻事不致死，做做又何彷？

As Nietzsche says, what does not destroy me makes me "stronger".........

.........or "stranger" if you prefer Joker's.
