My Shadow 我的影子
Joseph Fu 傅耀賢
Camino Frances路上隨想文
清早我有巨人的影子,就像小時候有無限的希望,
我認真的踏出每一步要去捉影,可是它遙不可及,我走的愈快,
它也離我愈快.有時雲霧遮日,我就看不見我的影子,
我只能慣性地踏出下一步.相信它還會出現.漸漸長大,
巨影變小了,我的目標也變小了.日正當中時,
我的影子就在我腳下,好像我已捉到影子,
可是那目標是多麼的渺小,再過片刻它已在我背後.
原來這一切都是陽光造就的,我就開始跟隨太陽,可是它曬得刺痛,
我憑信繼續跟隨,當太陽快下山時,黃昏的景色多麼燦爛繽紛,
可惜我一天的行程也要結束,當我躺下時,我的影子也消失了！
My Shadow 5/1/24
In the early morning I have the shadow of a giant, just like the infinite hope I had as a child.
I take every step seriously to catch the shadow, but it is out of reach.
The faster I walk, the faster it moves away from me.
Sometimes the clouds cover the sun, and I cannot see my shadow. I can only take the next step out of inertia, believing that it will appear again.
As I grow older, the giant shadow becomes smaller, and my goal also becomes smaller.
When the sun is at its highest point, my shadow is right under my feet, as if I have caught the shadow, but that goal is so small that it is behind me a moment later.
It turns out that all this is caused by the sunlight, so I start to follow the sun, but it hurts so much. I continue to follow it by faith.
When the sun is about to set, the evening scenery is so brilliant and colorful, but it is a pity that my day's journey is about to end.
When I lie down, my shadow also disappears!
