The Movie~~"Coach Carter"

Coach Ken Carter: What is your deepest fear?
Timo Cruz: Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

卡特教頭-
提摩克魯斯:『我們最大的恐懼,並不是因為我們不夠好,我們最大的恐懼,是我們超乎想像的能力,我們害怕的是我們光明,而不是黑暗的一面,畏縮的態度不能改變世界,隱藏自己內在的潛能…並不會讓你身邊的人,覺得更有安全感,我們都應該發揮最大的潛能,就像小孩子那樣,不只是我們其中的幾位,每個人都一樣,當我們讓自己發光時…我們不自覺地影響到身邊的人,讓他們也能這麼做,我們不但擺脫了自己的恐懼…我們的存在也自然的解放了別人。』

It's not about the shoes.重要的 不是這雙鞋

It's about knowing where you're going.而是知道要往何處前進

Not forgetting where you started.卻沒忘記自己來自哪裡

It's about having the courage to fail.而是擁有面對失敗的勇氣

Not breaking when you're broken.遭受打擊卻依然堅定

Taking everything you've been given.發揮所有潛力

And making something better.成就更出色的自己

It's about work before glory.重要的 是榮耀來臨之前的努力

And what's inside of you.以及內心深處的信念

It's doing what they said you can't.無關別人是否相信

It's not about the shoes.重要的 真的不是這雙鞋

It's about what you do in them.而是穿上它之後的你

It's about being who you were born to be. 勇敢作你自己

Taipei express way Marathon

Last Sunday morning, I went to Taipei for 10K express way running with my friends. That was my second time to join the running game. We got up earlier than last time ING marathon. So we had enough time to warm up.
But we didn't do any practice before this game. So each of us got twitch. And we also saw a man fell down at 8KM. Many people tried to save him, I heard people said he got save after the electric shock. Thank god!!!
My result is 1 hr and 9 min. Running on the express way is really special and we all treasure this chance, so we all shit in the WC on the way and lay down on the road for a while. We can't do the things like these in general, so that's one of the reasons we participate.
Next time is Supau road running on 5/3. Only charge 100 NTD. Our goal is "drink the Supau as much as we can".

加油? fuel up gasoline?

In Chinese, we could hear people tell us "加油" in many situations, like when we decide to do something, have to pass some test or have to win a competition. It is a kind of words to encourage somebody.

"Oh, man... I have to do overtime tonight."~~~"加油"
"I worry about the exam tomorrow."~~~"I am sure you will pass the test, 加油"
"I like that girl, should I tell her?"~~~ "Of course, just tell her how you feel, 加油"

But it is hard to find the real translation in English. The real translation in "加油" is to fuel up gasoline. It is quite different meaning in Chinese. Indeed, we really use "加油" , when we refuel the vehicle, but we used in encouraging others more often.
