那是 2025 年 4 月 26 日 。 下午 两 兩 点 點 前 ， 阳光明媚 陽光明媚 ， 万里无云 萬里無雲 。 我 来到 來到 我 家 附近 的 死胡同 ， 静 靜 静 靜 地 漫步 。 我 欣赏 欣賞 着花 著花 园 園 ， 这 這 让 讓 我 想起 了 道家 思想 ： 人 如何 影射 天 ： 樱花 櫻花 的 簇 簇 花海 ， 如同 远处 遠處 的 星云 星雲 。 人 其实 其實 不必 走 太 远 遠 。 我 的 白人 邻居 鄰居 芭芭拉 正 站 在 她 家 车道 車道 上 。 她 和 丈夫 肯 恩 正要 出门 出門 去 买 買 鸡蛋 雞蛋 。 他们 他們 家 很 爱 愛 吃鸡 吃雞 蛋 。
It's the 26th of April of 2025. Before 14:00, a sunny blue-sky afternoon, I went to my neighbourhood's cul-de-sac to meditatively walk around and around there. I admired the gardens. They reminded me of Daoism: how the microcosm reflects the macrocosm: The puffs of sakura would be a nebula afar. One need not really travel too far. Barb my white neighbour was at her driveway. She and her husband Ken would be going out to buy eggs. They eat many eggs.
