讀而不記

The purpose of this 讀書劄記 column, which was set last year, is to record all the mental processes, the fresh thought, feeling and emotion, nurtured during and after reading.  Yet, I have been dragging my heels and not lived up to the expectation that I had in my mind – I have just taken notice that the very last reading note, in the bona fide sense, was written in last July.  So, it’s been almost a year and half that I have not written anything about what I have read.  What a shame to have this “garden” (讀書園地, interposing: it seems there is always a way to say things figuratively in Chinese) withered away.  Well, let’s blame the social climate for now.  It hasn’t been a good year, has it? People have reason to be sluggish. :-)

Hope this little note will prod me to do better in the future.
