另一個生命

小兔子可愛
記得小學時候 想趁著學校自然課養寵物單元
以作業之由 讓媽媽買隻兔子給我
結果只買了一對十姊妹
.
我沒養過哺乳類動物
因為媽媽堅持
「養一隻狗像養一個小孩
要認真照顧牠 沒照顧好又怕對不起牠」
(但她自己養了四個人類)
也許受其影響 也許不是
現在的我好憂慮對其他生命負責
仰躺的孔雀魚 斷折的玉米莖 枯萎的豆苗
尚且讓我低落好幾天
又如何能面對更長 更活潑的生命呢？
.
當堅毅不屈 義無反顧
方得帶領另一個生命於自己的生活中 於這世上吧

Rabbits are adorable.
I begged my mum to buy a rabbit for me when I was having a lesson about keeping a pet.
I ended up getting a pair of lonchura striata.
.
I have never kept any mammal as pet
My mum insisted “keeping a dog is like having a child. We have to take care of it very seriously. We will feel guilty if we do not do a good job”
(While she nurtured 4 human beings)
I may or may not have been influenced by her
I’m anxious about being responsible for another creature.
Be it upside down guppy, broken corn stalk or withered bean sprouts
These all make me depressed for a few days.
How do I deal with longer, more vibrant lives?
.
Perseverance and giving are key
Only then can we lead another life into ours and into this world.
