以物易物後感 1

以物易物fair完了一星期，一直在反思當日的經驗。

可喜可賀的是有熱心市民問到想捐贈物品可否聯絡我們。我們就這樣給了途人一張名片，介紹我們是大學生，想做點事回饋社會。

從而也看見，回收廢物再賣的社企/政府機構宣傳力未盡完善。

Why this event?
Just to evoke the message of redistribute resources effectively, while REALLY HELPING THE POVERTY AT NO COST.

Lesson learnt:
Please dont say you're helping the poverty if you are charging them subscriptions / service fees.
Building a good feeling of yourself in return of earning the poor's money is no fun.

"...creating great things instead of making money, putting things back into the stream of history and of human consciousness as much as I could" - Steve Jobs

那天我坐在咖啡廳裡,完成我大學學位的最後一份功課.

I was sitting on the cafe, writing up my final piece of writing for university.

我在這個制度下成長讀書已經19年了.有一剎那,我在想一句Gundam00系列的其中一句對白 - 世界那一部分歪曲了?
After many years of studies, I was thinking for one moment a quote came from Gundam 00 series- which part of the world is wrong? 

我想,是錯配的資源

The mis-attribution of resources.

我知道我所做的只能只能影響非常非常少的人.但我知道全職上班日子即將來臨,現在不做,只怕日後沒有時間或是我會對人生有點後悔.所以我決定了給自己一個機會 - 什麼也由白紙開始.集合每一件能用的物品.一件物品對A沒有用,可能對B卻意義重大.而B也可能有A想要的.

I know what I do is going to affect only few, few, very few people. But I know if I don't do it now given my free time before engaging in full-time work, I may not have the time to do it in the future or have regrets. So I decide to give myself a chance. Starting everything from a blank sheet of paper. Gather every single usable items - no longer be useful to one but possibly very useful to another.

農曆新年快來,每個門戶都準備大掃除清理.
With Chinese New Year coming soon, everyone is busy cleaning up their home.

有時候,你需要的,正正確實別人需要的.

What's not needed by you may be exactly what's needed by the other.

如果資源得有效分配能帶多點正能量,何樂而不為.

If redistributing resources effectively brings more happiness, why not.

Vision

Successful people live with a goal.

So are you?

Unpredictability

Is what makes the whole thing interesting

Never know

There is always something that others will never ever know about you.

Loss and gain

Gain nothing if not losing anything.

No one likes zero sum games.

Sadly, we are forced to be into it.

Crowdness

Crowdness induces the feeling of intense competition, and stressed.

Last one standing

Is it really that important?
