喜樂美語

Early morning by a river: a thin white cloud is sitting on the ground, and you can only see a short way. The trees fifty metres off are still there, but they have lost their edges — soft grey shapes instead of branches. Nothing is hidden exactly; everything has just gone soft and pale. That is misty: a layer of fine water in the air between you and whatever you are looking at.

清晨的河邊，一層薄薄的白雲貼在地面上，你只看得到前面一小段路。五十公尺外的樹還在那裡，可是輪廓沒了——不再是一根根樹枝，而是一團團柔柔的灰影。東西並沒有被藏起來，只是全都變軟、變淡了。 所以這個字的重點不在「白色的霧」本身，而在你和你要看的東西之間多了一層水氣，因此看出去的一切都失去了清楚的邊。抓住這一點，後面眼淚的用法和記憶的用法就都順了：不管那層水氣是在空氣裡、在眼睛裡、還是在時間裡，效果都一樣——看得見，但看不清楚。
