心灵雕刻家
On Channel 8 tonight ~ 特写: 都会新新男人-心灵雕刻家
43岁的郑来福自称是位“心灵雕刻家”。八年前，他舍弃了一份年薪六位数的工作，花了四年的时间去背包旅行，探索生命。旅途中他发现，很多人类的活动对地球造成很大的破坏。回国后，他全情投身于环保和义工的行列，并提倡有机生活。这些年来，来福跳出主流，活出自己，在喧闹的都市里，开发了一片属于自己的心灵净土。
《 特写》之“都市新新男人”和你一起走入来福的理想世界。
"My profession is living." - well said!
People like him truly inspire. You can tell when a person does what he does out of a strong belief in that subject, vs someone who's doing something merely as a means to an end (re: all those young MPs who took part in the Causeway Run today).
The programme moved me deeply (good job, TCS folks), and made me re-examine myself once again. What exactly are you doing, dear scenic? To be utterly frank, I think I'm leading a life that's getting more and more inward-looking. Daily concerns are confined to work, work politics, exams to pass, music i like, food i like, books i like, etc etc. All things relating to myself. You would think that without a spouse and kids to feel protective about (and hence deceptively outward-looking), I should be more aware of things outside of my immediate environment, right? But no. I'm ashamed. I've stopped caring about many things. When did that start happening?
So while I express disgust at the Wee Shu Min scandal, what have I really done besides being an armchair critic? Cos actually being concerned about things beyond your own can refer to non-social subjects as well.
Anyway, I think I'll give the prison a call tomorrow.
