兩週一聚 (二十二期) 「重頭一次」之【父親的最後囑咐】 / 2weeks1gather (#22)「Second Chance」【Father's Last Instruction】


多年之前,父親久病不愈,在医院彌留之際,想給我一個最後囑咐,無夸他氣力不支,無力提筆,又說不出話來,於是改用手勢,左手豎起食指丶中指和無名指,右手指指點點,他心急地望著我丶希望我明白他的意思,在那短短的迴光返照数秒鐘,我只能苦笑點頭回应,用手輕掠他額前稀疏的白髪,給他一點安慰,沒一会兒,他又矇矓沈睡,回到那夢幻的嗎啡世界去。

多年之後,午夜夢迴,我仍在揣測父親的最後囑咐,如果我能夠重頭一次,回到孩提的時代,或許日落在海堤散步閒聊之際,或許週末在家中茶餘飯後之時,我会抱坐在他的膝上,問他有什么想对我說的話,好讓他能作一個詳細的解釋,好讓我們能作一個最後的明白。

以下是網友Space兄回应的一首詩

一葉孤舟海上搖

人生如絮空中飄
先人永埋地下塚
去留祇有天知曉

後記 Updated Sep 16, 2009:

再想「重頭一次」 / Re-think 「Ctrl+Z Un-do」

如果全世界人人都可以Ctrl+Z, 德國納粹主义者会令阿道夫希特勒死裏逃生,重頭一次進攻波蘭,和防守諾曼第前線;冷戰時代列強國家蘇維埃和美國的鷹派,会發動ICBM導彈,先發制人,核戰再次一觸即發;各地投机者会狂賣 Lehman Brothers 和其它股票,令全世界金融和市場發生大混亂;生不欲來的不來,死不願去的不去; ......

如此覌之,還是沒有Ctrl+Z好!!

Gwenzilla:

Thanks !!!

I have accepted the fact or reality that there are unsolved puzzle(s) in life.

Haricot 微豆 said...

Space:

As always, I enjoy your thoughtful input/comments !!! You are a good writer :)

C.M. said...

Haricot:

That's a sweet puzzle. It keeps him in your mind. (Are you the eldest son?)

火羽 said...

沒有ctrl-z 的世界真的比較好, 否則我們會回到茹毛飲血年代~ 驚驚~

新鮮人 said...

過了就過來,
没有可能重來,
只能盡力把握現在!

Haricot 微豆 said...

CM:

Yes, I am the eldest. You are right, the puzzle does keep him in my mind - never thought of it that way. Thank you for the insight :)

Haricot 微豆 said...

火羽: 我同意,一把刀無兩頭利!!

Haricot 微豆 said...

新鮮人: 說得好!!

C.M. said...

Haricot:

Please don't mind my being too inquisitive.

I was thinking... your father were asking you to look after your other sisters and brothers (total there're three of them?).

Haricot 微豆 said...

CM:

No prob :)

You might very well be right, because that was what he had done himself - quit school to support his younger siblings given the limited income of his parents.

新鮮人 said...

重看一遍,
還是那句,
珍惜眼前人,
時光是轉眼即逝,
無可重來! =)

新鮮人:

>> ... 珍惜眼前人

完全同意啊!!
