暫時放下廣告口號的討論，近日亦注意到該手錶廣告將廣告系列作出延續，亦以微電影方式放在網上，現將連結與大家分享。

同時有感而發，康德超驗哲學中，利用了時間及空間兩大元素。因應科技的發展，空間這元素明顯地產生改變，網絡的發展，已經將人對於空間的概念大大伸展，在電子時代，我們可以與地球另一面的人進行差不多的即時接觸。但在時間方面，雖然年紀日近長大的我，是感到時間是越來越快，但以乎時間這元素在實質上仍然未有多大的變化。
可能我們仍要探討我們可以學習如何好好利用時間。
What lies ahead for anyone, nobody knows.
回覆刪除Whether time is available ahead for any particular one, again nobody knows.
When one does not want to waste time, one appears very busy, and every second seems to be as valuable as gold. One then becomes a slave in space-time, at one's total loss of oneself.
Time is not to be consumed, not to be saved, and therefore not to be counted. Meaningfulness is not measured in terms of how much time has been "meaningfully" used.
To chase time, and feel sorry under stress, one becomes a loser instead. Self-realization and actualization break through all constraints, including sense of time!
I think it may be good time to define Realization and Actualization. why we use "Real..." and "Actual...", what is the meaning behind this two words.
回覆刪除I tend to believe:
刪除(1) When one's action follows one's own command by listening to one's own heart despite a lot of constraints (including time constraint) or opposing noises (opinions) around, one realizes one's self. "Fear not" is not attitude. In a traditional Chinese family, self-realization is impossible when everyone must listen to the guardian elderly.
(2) When one is accountable to one's decision, action, behaviour, and conduct, without fear and without retreat, one is actualizing one's self. Again in a traditional Chinese family, it is also quite impossible. It is not how brave and responsible you think you can be, and it is not your decision to shoulder and take up the responsibility. Your responsibility is to be assigned and granted by the clan leader or family head, the guardian elderly.
Therefore one's self is under stunted growth, seldom realized or actualized, in a traditional Chinese village community. To escape from such reality like an ostrich, one may take excuses listing a lot of constraints as failing factors including time factor as well.
Then how about "time". Whether "Time" is an internal part of "Self" or it is an "Object" apart from the "Self"
回覆刪除If "Time" is an internal part of "Self" then how to view time or to use time is a process of "Realization" and "Actualization". It is not appropriate to use "Ahead" or "Chase" as the comment.
"感到時間是越來越快" (as you said) is your feeling under your internal change (including slower movement, slower internal metabolism rates, including the growing sense of limited life,...)
回覆刪除All these internal changes take place in time at "normal" rates, "irregular (when one is sick)" rates [i.e. certain units per second, or per year...] or "accelerating (decelerating)rates" towards aging as a phenomenal process.
The acceleration (deceleration) may be objectively and physically real, inevitable, and inescapable, OR may sometimes be illusions, OR sometimes may be remedied, alleviated, or temporarily avoided by doing exercises, use of drugs...
"要探討我們可以學習如何好好利用時間" (as you said) is nothing wrong it seems BUT the motive is a result of worrying about inadequate time. Time becomes the constraint like an enemy. It is not healthy. Why? because "感到時間是越來越快" becomes stress. It is unnecessary.
Rather, "想做就去做" 才是真正的 constraint free. We do not even give a damn thought on time. For example: An old man who likes to run, and likes to run Marathon. Why not? Okay, go, go ahead. Practise, and try. If he thinks about efficiency, thinks about "如何好好利用時間", he will not even start the first step. He is defeated by his own sense of time as a constraint (as an enemy). He becomes a slave to his own deluded sense of time. "好好利用時間" 本是utilitarian, and it certainly should not be the only guideline in life, as we all know in learning ethics.
我相信時間及空間是內在的，但我相信我是沒有能力達到 Realization 及 Actualization.
回覆刪除但是我不同意"好好利用時間"是效益主義。如果時間是內在的，這便是自我的一部份，我是有我的自由意志，如果利用時間，與如何利用思想，身體、感性，理性，... 是沒有多大的分別，是有什麼不當的地方。時間不會是我的約束，但我相信如何定義時間，對我來說，是有必然的價值。
其實我的不單純是想討論時間，我是希望利用時間與空間的對比，希望能找出一些新思維。只能相信是因為文學根基不足，所以令命題變為效益主義的聯想，相信我要好好學習語文及"與別人溝通"的能力，才是應該進行的安排。
