    我们是如此淳朴可爱

    今天听了奥运100天倒计时那首主题曲《北京欢迎你》
    我唯一的感触就是这个。
    真的,我们作为一个民族,太好客、太淳朴、太可爱了。
    关于圣火传递,关于抵制与被抵制,
    怨恨与委屈,挫败感与使命感,让我已经有些疲倦。
     
    昨天,上班的时候与疼我如女儿却敬佩Dalai的主管邮件往来数次
    彼此都不能说服对方。

    Her:
    Looks like his (Cafferty) comment was made in relation to the govt-
    not the people Jing.
     
    Jing:
    Well, the "junks" are made by Chinese people. I am not being a
    nationalist here, but I don't think what they said can be counted as a
    sincere apology at all! How about "bunch of goons and thugs"?

    I think what I really don't like CNN is that they did not report
    honestly about the event of Tibet. I guess nobody did, because nobody
    was able to. So I agree that in terms of "free speech", China still has
    a long way to go. China has a long way to go in a lot of aspects. But to
    report- or trash- the things that they haven't seen, come on! Is this
    the principle of "fair media" to "report the truth"?

    In Lhasa, when some westerners who have been living
    there for a long time tried to tell news reporters Lhasa is not what
    they have imagined and people there are actually living a good life (at
    least better than before), the western media seemed not to "accept this
    fact". You might think all Chinese people are "brainwashed" but don't
    you think all western people are somehow "brainwashed" too by the "fair
    western media" who live in their own little world of stereotype?

    Forgive me of saying this, I just don't want to see my country being
    hated and wanted to separate. Plus, I feel deeply unsafe about my
    homeland and my friends and family right now, because the what you are
    afraid of in the western world might happen in China too - the
    extremists are making bombs and guns, wishing to copy the tragedies of
    9-11, London/Leeds in China. It is only, in the western world, this kind
    of behavior is called terrorism; but in my home country, according to
    the western "fair media", it is called "people fighting for their
    freedom".
     
    Her:
    I know I give you a bit of a hard time but I do understand your
    perspective. 

    I must say though when our nation re-elected G. Bush for the 2nd term-
    many newspapers/commentators across the nation (esp. Britain, France)
    had headlines questioning the intelligence (and stupidity) of the
    American people.  Frankly, this did not offend me- I generally agree
    that many of us in this country are not all that bright.
     
    Jing:
    I just wish people in the western world could see my country is not like what
    they have read from their newspaper. And those protestors, do whatever they want,
    just don't try to separate my country, and (threaten to) hurt the people in my
    country.
     
    Her:
    Vice Versa.

    大战300回合之后,
    回来看到新华社贴近民众的社论《建设好国家是表达爱国的最好方式》,
    竟是一种解脱……
    我们终究是不能“说”服这些外国人的
    现在的中国和他们在教科书中学到的中国太不一样
    他们不理解
    他们不甘心
    他们畏惧
    他们抵抗
    他们好奇,却更想掩耳盗铃
    等他们攒好钱
    自己到中国眼见为实吧。
     
    下班如常蹭她的车去买菜
    又回到一番其乐融融
    她和她先生长期照顾社区里的两位孤寡老人
    我拿着其中一位的shopping list
    看着她认真地挑选柠檬的侧脸
    看到了相互理解的底线:
    他们都是好人。
     
    P.S. 至此郑重决定,听爸爸的话,远离政治,亲近自然:)

    (L) China

    高爽的邮件
    MSN 上Red heartChina 的朋友们
    你们给了我很大勇气。
     
    中国在强大
    西方在挣扎
    他们接受也得接受 不接受也得接受
    我们
    是他们得罪不起的!
     
    先不发阿姆斯特丹的照片啦 免生事端。
    是很愉快的旅程
    二娃同学比我爱中国有过之而无不及
    这点政治觉悟请亲友们放心吧
    阿姆斯特丹是值得一去的——别在伦敦转机就可以了
