Growing up together; Getting lost altogether!

Just talked to my brother who has worked for a rehab shelter in HKG for 17 years and was finally forced to quit his job this week. It's really saddening! Not only is it extremely hard for him to find a decent job at only 45, but also the intimidation and insult tactics the agency has adopted. Even more frustrating is that the agency head and board members are people I used to admire for their commitment to social justice and socialist ideal.
I guess people of my generation have really changed a lot!


一代理想主義者的成長與迷失

六十年代的新生代 -

父母艱苦某生計,
子女幫補穿膠花;

七十年代的公屋青年 –

大考小考公開考,
薪薪學子齊比較;

八十年代的理想主義者 –

民主回歸直選路,
學運社運講情操;

九十年代的機會主義者 –

人去我留又肯做,
進取走位機會到;

千禧年代迷失了的領袖 –

信念理想成口號,
身驕肉貴眼角高!
