Delays

整整一天,碰上了无数次的延误。

办理登机手续时,被理所当然地通知到,班机会延迟一小时起飞。登机后,发现飞机必须再等上一个小时。转机时,因为先前的延误,就继续延误续程的班机--再等两个小时。

一而再,再而三。仿佛在提醒我,人生,我的人生,有太多太多自己所不能掌控的变数。

延误对人情的释怀;延误了解/体会人生中最基本的情感泉源;延误对自己的了解;延误了体验在别人的人生里是属于理所当然的阶段;搞不好,还延误了与你的相识……

Been haunted by delays for the entire day.

Was told at the check-in counter that the flight would be delayed for an hour; another hour of unexpected wait on the aircraft; the earlier delays consequently delayed my connecting flight--which was another two hours of wait.

Again and again. As if reminding me, that life, my life, is a whole chunk of uncontrollable events.

Delay in coming to terms with human worlds; delay in understanding/experiencing the most basic feelings of human forms; delay in understanding myself; delay in experiencing the stages of life, that for others, is just a nature of course.
