美国洛杉矶Highland 

天气早上下雨,午间以后放晴

 

昨夜下了一整夜的雨,淅淅沥沥的在窗外,也让人很晚才入眠。杜甫的春夜喜雨诗句:好雨知时节, 当春乃发生。随风潜入夜, 润物细无声。希望都有好兆头。

每天母亲都会从西雅图打几个电话来关心我的家庭生活和询问身边的疫情状况。原本应该是我常常打电话问候她老人家的,但父母无论在何时何地都是对孩子的关心高过孩子关心父母的程度,水往下流,可怜天下父母心。

 

网上的数字在增长,但我们打开门却丝毫没有真正的体会。也许是太安静了,让人没有一种恐惧。

 

经济的暴跌给美国美国社会带来的损失应该比川普想象的更加猛烈。

作为商人的川普一惯认为自己2020年大选得票率与道琼斯指数密切相关。其实现在真正决定他得票率的是美国新冠肺炎的【确诊数】和【死亡数】,如果控制不住这两个数据,他日子也不好过。

 

洛杉矶多个著名的海滩宣布关闭。

洛杉矶市长Eric Garcetti 表示希望政府颁布的Safer at home 规定,居民需居家隔离,减少不必要的外出,上周末,看到有居民拥挤在海滩,这样会造成病毒感染,患者增加。

我也看到圣地亚哥政府颁布了关闭海滩的公告。

 

夏威夷州长要求入境者强制隔离14天,3月26日起执行。

3月21日最新消息,全美旅游胜地夏威夷实行美国史上最严禁令,从3月26日起,所有外地入境夏威夷州的人,一律强制隔离14天,不遵守属于轻罪,最高可罚款5000或坐牢。是全美首个执行强制隔离令的州。夏威夷的本地人口只有140万人,而旅游人口激增至近1000万人。目前夏威夷大多数肺炎病例都跟外地输入有关。夏威夷州新增11个病例,确诊总数达到48例。其中3人住院。

夏季奥运会将考虑延期举办,国际奥运会将在未来四周内确定讨论结果

“The IOC will ... start detailed discussions to complete its assessment of the rapid development of the worldwide health situation and its impact on the Olympic Games, including the scenario of postponement. The IOC is confident that it will have finalised these discussions within the next four weeks.”

国际奥委会将展开详细讨论,并对全球疫情形势的发展及其对奥运会的影响作出评估,其中包括推迟奥运会的情况。国际奥委会有信心在未来4周内完成这些讨论。

23日上午,日本首相安倍晋三在参议院预算委员会会议上表示,如果不能以完整的形式举办东京奥运会,将不得不考虑延期。

安倍表示,有权取消或推迟奥运会的是国际奥委会,在是否取消东京奥运会这一选项上,自己与国际奥委会想法一致。

If holding the Olympics in its complete form “becomes impossible, we may have no option but to consider postponing the Games, given the Olympics’ principle of putting the health of athletes first”, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe told parliament on Monday.

目前加拿大,澳大利亚已经宣布推出今年夏季奥运会。

歌剧演唱家普拉西多·多明戈(Placido Domingo)在他的Facebook页面上证实,他的新冠病毒检测呈阳性。“我认为说出我的检测呈阳性是我的责任。我和我的家人将处于自我隔离状态。” 他表示。多明戈补充说,他目前的健康状态良好,但出现了发烧和咳嗽的症状。

 

群友“丹青松子”也在我们群里分享购物图片并说:下午2点左右在Azusa大华超市购物,蔬果丰富。

朋友阿香Jennifer xie也特别分享她去过我们附近的San Bernardino Costco,除了卫生纸没有,水和其他物品都充足,超市相对没有太多人。这些朋友的分享也让我们没有出门的人,心情更加安静了。

 

写日记以来,许多朋友也关注我家菜地,我每天都会在菜地耕作一二个小时,今天又找出家中库存的红苋菜种子播种下去,昨夜的雨水让泥土特别松软,春播的好时机。

 

洛杉矶颁布居家条令已经一个星期了,家人也慢慢的习惯了,先生已经在家工作一周了,家中一楼的一间房专门给先生工作用了,我和孩子也不去打扰,对待工作我家先生一贯是认真勤奋的,华人的自律在工作态度上也突出的。

华人圈的微信多数是提醒告诫:加油站把手不能摸,取款机不能摸,邮件也带病毒,外卖的包装也有可能带病毒,出门要小心,警察要开罚单,暂且就当是善意提醒吧!我有空闲还是去Facebook上看看,美国朋友在里面的奇思异想,各种搞怪,还是心态比较幽默。

 

日长睡起无情思,闲看儿童捉柳花,

洛杉矶依旧平静安好!

 

今早就看见Bill Gates一段话:“我们都被连接在一起”(值得一看)

 

 我坚信,无论我们认为是好是坏,发生的一切背后都有一个精神目的。

 

 在我沉思时,我想与大家分享我对Corona / Covid-19病毒已经对我们造成的影响:

 

 1)这提醒我们,我们人人平等,无论我们的文化,宗教,职业,财务状况或名声如何。这种疾病平等地对待我们所有人。如果您不相信我,请问汤姆·汉克斯(Tom Hanks)。

 

 2)这提醒我们,我们都已联系在一起,影响一个人的事物会对另一个人产生影响。提醒我们,由于这种病毒不需要护照,因此我们设置的虚假边界几乎没有价值。通过短时间压迫我们,使我们想起了这个世界上一生都被压迫的人们。

 

 3)这提醒我们,我们的健康是多么宝贵,我们已经采取了行动,通过吃营养不良的加工食品和被化学物质污染的饮用水来忽视健康。如果我们不照顾自己的健康,我们当然会生病。

 

 4)这使我们想起生命的短暂,最重要的是我们要做的是互相帮助,尤其是那些年老或患病的人。我们的目的不是购买厕纸。

 

 5)这提醒我们,我们的社会变得多么物质主义,以及在困难时期如何行为。我们记住什么是必需品(食物,水,药品),他们与平时我们不必要地赋予其价值的奢侈品是相反的。

 

 6)这使我们想起家庭和家庭生活的重要性,以及我们忽略了多少。它迫使我们回到自己的房屋与家庭去建设它们。

 

 7)这提醒我们,我们的真正工作不是我们的工作,而是我们需要做的,而不是我们被创造去做的。我们的真正工作是互相照顾,互相保护,互惠互利。

 

 8)这提醒我们要检查自我。这提醒我们,无论我们认为自己有多伟大,还是别人认为我们有多伟大,病毒会使我们的世界陷入瘫痪。

 

 9)这提醒我们,自由意志的力量掌握在我们手中。我们可以选择合作和互相帮助,分享,给予,互相帮助和支持,或者我们可以选择自私,只照顾我们自己。确实,困难使我们显现出人性的本来面目。

 

 10)这提醒我们,我们可以耐心,也可以惊慌。我们可以理解,这种情况在历史上已经发生过很多次并且会过去,或者我们可以惊慌地将其视为世界末日,因此造成的伤害大于弊端。

 

 11)这提醒我们,这可以是终点,也可以是新起点。这可以是反思和理解的时期,我们可以从错误中学习,也可以是一个循环的开始,这种循环将一直持续到我们终于学习到我们打算学的课程为止。

 

 12)这提醒我们,地球是有病的。提醒我们,我们必须像研究卫生纸从架子上消失的速度一样紧迫地研究森林砍伐的速度。我们生病是因为我们的家有病。

 

 13)这提醒我们,每遇到困难,总会有轻松的时刻。生命是周期性的,这只是这个大循环中的一个阶段。我们不必惊慌;这也将过去。

 

 14)尽管许多人将Corona / Covid-19病毒视为一场巨大的灾难,但我更喜欢将其视为*伟大的纠正者*

 

 它的发生是为了提醒我们那些我们似乎已经忘记的重要课程,是否学习这些课程取决于我们。

 

"WE ARE ALL CONNECTED"

 

I’m a strong believer that there is a spiritual purpose behind everything that happens, whether that is what we perceive as being good or being bad.

 

As I meditate upon this, I want to share with you what I feel the Corona/ Covid-19 virus is really doing to us:

 

1) It is reminding us that we are all equal, regardless of our culture, religion, occupation, financial situation or how famous we are. This disease treats us all equally, perhaps we should to. If you don’t believe me, just ask Tom Hanks.

 

2) It is reminding us that we are all connected and something that affects one person has an effect on another. It is reminding us that the false borders that we have put up have little value as this virus does not need a passport. It is reminding us, by oppressing us for a short time, of those in this world whose whole life is spent in oppression.

 

3) It is reminding us of how precious our health is and how we have moved to neglect it through eating nutrient poor manufactured food and drinking water that is contaminated with chemicals upon chemicals. If we don’t look after our health, we will, of course, get sick.

 

4) It is reminding us of the shortness of life and of what is most important for us to do, which is to help each other, especially those who are old or sick. Our purpose is not to buy toilet roll.

 

5) It is reminding us of how materialistic our society has become and how, when in times of difficulty, we remember that it’s the essentials that we need (food, water, medicine)

 as opposed to the luxuries that we sometimes unnecessarily give value to.

 

6) It is reminding us of how important our family and home life is and how much we have neglected this. It is forcing us back into our houses so we can rebuild them into our home and

 to strengthen our family unit.

 

7) It is reminding us that our true work is not our job, that is what we do, not what we were created to do.

Our true work is to look after each other, to protect each other and to be of benefit to one another.

 

8) It is reminding us to keep our egos in check. It is reminding us that no matter how great we think we are or how great others think we are,

a virus can bring our world to a standstill.

 

9) It is reminding us that the power of freewill is in our hands. We can choose to cooperate and help each other, to share, to give, to help and to support each other or we can choose to be selfish, to hoard, to look after

 only our self. Indeed, it is difficulties that bring out our true colors.

 

10) It is reminding us that we can be patient, or we can panic. We can either understand that this type of situation has happened many times before in history and will pass, or we can panic and see it as the end of the world and, consequently, cause ourselves more harm than good.

 

11) It is reminding us that this can either be an end or a new beginning. This can be a time of reflection and understanding, where we learn from our mistakes, or it can be the start of a cycle which will continue until we finally learn the lesson we are meant to.

 

12) It is reminding us that this Earth is sick. It is reminding us that we need to look at the rate of deforestation just as urgently as we look at the speed at which toilet rolls are disappearing off of shelves. We are sick because our home is sick. 

 

13) It is reminding us that after every difficulty, there is always ease. Life is cyclical, and this is just a phase in this great cycle. We do not need to panic; this too shall pass.

 

14) Whereas many see the Corona/ Covid-19 virus as a great disaster, I prefer to see it as a *great corrector*

 

It is sent to remind us of the important lessons that we seem to have forgotten and it is up to us if we will learn them or not.
