萬聖節到來了。老妹從加拿大給我打電話第一句話就是“trick or treat."西方習俗對鬼神少了一份敬畏，多了一些嬉戲的成分。這點我有點西方化，生和死看得很開，一切順其自然。我和我先生就是在鬼節註冊結婚的，我當時想這輩子和你在一起，死了以後還要在一起。這輩子你都跑不掉，哈哈，下輩子你還跑不掉，生生世世在一起。
我很喜歡Tagore有關對死亡描寫的詩。On the day when death will knock at thy door what wilt you offer to him?
Oh. I will set before my guest the full vessel of my life ----- I will never let him go with empty hands.
All the sweet vintage of all my autumn days and summer nights, all the earnings and gleanings of my busy life will I place before him at the close of my days when death will know at my door.
如果人生渾渾噩噩，在死神面前不可能有如此的灑脫。
