追夢靠甚麼?

「做人如果無夢想,同條鹹魚有咩分別呀?」這是周星馳在電影《少林足球》裏的名句,令人聽過後印象難忘,香港甚至有公開試的考生當作「古語」來用,成為一時笑談。



年青人愛說追夢 --- 追求夢想,可是,對很多人來說,即使是在年青時,追夢本身已是夢了。不少年青人有夢想,但未必有機會去追夢;有機會時,又未必膽量和決心,因為害怕承擔追夢失敗的後果。其實,就算追夢成功,做了自己想做的「大事」,例如揹背包環遊世界,也有可能要面對夢後的困難,例如重新找一份愜意的工作。

因此,有些人說,追夢也要講條件。他們說,成功靠父幹,追夢也靠父幹;你家境富裕,不必憂柴憂米,已是一大好條件,很少人有的。如果家人支持,自己學歷又高,不愁找不到工作,更是無後顧之憂。那麼,追夢又有何難?圓了夢,固然心滿意足,甚至覺得自己脫胎換骨,境界高人一等;即使失敗了,最多是回到從前的安樂窩,沒有甚麼大不了。對於這些「有條件」的人,追夢又有何難?

然而,不難達到、不必犧牲任何東西去追求、追求時沒有冒險成份的,算不上是夢想吧!就算你有齊上述家境富裕等等「追夢好條件」,追夢,還是要作取捨、有決心、肯冒險,才可能得到圓夢的滿足感。假如你環遊世界,全程有保鑣,一切由別人安排妥當,吃得好住得好,優哉悠哉,這樣的環遊世界肯定不是在圓夢。

有「追夢好條件」的人去追夢,仍然是真真正正的追夢,沒有值得人看輕之處。他們的確有優勢,但只是靠那些外在的條件,而沒有夢想、缺乏追夢的決心和冒險精神,夢,還是追不成的。正如一個音樂天份高、得名師教導、家庭又支持她學習音樂的人,可說有成為音樂家的好條件,但成為音樂家對她來說也不是易事;如果她醉心音樂、努力學習、刻苦練琴,最後成為知名的鋼琴家,我們可不會因為她擁有那些好條件而對她的成就打個折扣。

有「追夢好條件」而沒有夢想的人,仍然是一條鹹魚,儘管是貴價一點的。

    This is indeed a very motivating saying (and one of my favorite quote from Stephen Chou), it questions if a man want to be superior to others by chasing dream.

    Chasing dream, often requires your personal ability to overcome different problem, however, we should not put strong correlation between adventure and a dream. Chasing dream = go and do what you want to do & give up what you need to give up.

    I am currently cycling around the world, and my friends say I am chasing my dream, well, what I am doing maybe is within their dreams, but this is simply just a little task I have to finish in my life, not difficult at all.

    Welcome to have a look ^^

    「做人如果無夢想,同條鹹魚有咩分別呀?」

    "鹹魚" no longer takes up any natural resources. And "鹹魚" doesn't walk or move around, talk or complain, read or write a blog...

    Therefore, 「做人如果無夢想,同條鹹魚總是有分別的。又以鹹魚更多用途。」

  6. { About the video on "The Evolution of The Eye (2010)", it doesn't say who or what define the physical properties and principle of LIGHT which makes pin-hole camera and lens works. Also it doesn't say why LIGHT is present in this Universe (as energy) for species to happen on earth. If evolution of the eye could be explained so easily, I would wonder if Dr. Dawkins could grow a third eye on the back of his skull. Therefore there are a lot of things which are not explained, and to shut out the possibility of "creationism" isn't wise. }
