當我擁有眼鏡之後

「這鏡片採用最先進的全視線光致變色技術物料,物料能夠因應光線強弱變化,自動調節顏色深淺、防刮、防塵污、全高清!」老闆說的我並不陌生,早於兩年前,我已領教全視線的優點了,的確在強的太陽光底下,眼睛不會刺眼,舒服多了,這次更多了高清功效,即是拍照時眼鏡不會反光。

拼著牙血盡流之力,和老闆在價格上爭持,最後老闆說是閉著眼睛給我兩千五百元的最優惠價,這個價格是我買眼鏡的歷史中最貴的一副了,一周後我拿在手上、掛在臉上,不錯的外框,加上清晰而舒服的感覺,貴一點也值得!

由初一開始載眼鏡,隨著近視度數的增加、眼鏡的耗損、款式的追求,還有配載隱形眼鏡,我實在數不清曾經擁有過多少副眼鏡了,只是誰知道當我擁有第一副眼鏡之後,我就離開了上主。

我早意識到我與天主的關係,從小已開始二年級因為偷錢,怕最後審判怕得要死,老想著天主會過來罰我;到四年級,不知是電視看得太多、還是太用功讀書,忽然之間,我就如眾多哥哥般,眼睛開始近視了,家裡窮困而配眼鏡是一筆不少的數目,我經常目睹哥哥們無一幸免被爸爸責罵,所以我壓根兒不想向父親要錢,只是每日像貓咪一樣瞇著眼睛看東西,也向旁人掩飾這個事實,平常還可以,但上課學習卻成了我一大難題

因為看不到黑板,上課經常要看鄰座的筆記,所以我每晚總會誠心祈禱,期望上主每天給我陽光,讓我能看清黑板,(奇怪,為什麼我不向天主祈求有一副眼鏡呢?難進我認為天主的大能只是能支配太陽?而非人心?)但天氣不似預期,不是天天天藍,我唯有看鄰座同學的筆記,到測驗可慘了,那時候,測驗的題目仍是抄在黑板上,鄰座第一名的同學對我的厭惡眼神仍歷歷在目(還好,我猜她知道我不是抄她答案的),手蓋著不給我看,所以只能抄部份,其他的題目我只能用猜的,測驗卷一派下來,經常是不合格的,但這數字不能反映真實的我,到考試我能真正展現實力,那分數使老師一度懷疑我是否作弊呢,呵呵!

這樣的日子持續到小學結束,近視度數已加深到不可收拾,到初一轉校後終於被老師發現:你近視了,跟家裡說,幫你配眼鏡!聽了這句話,我像機械人般自動向家裡要求配鏡,有沒有被罵呢我已忘記,我只知道,中學階段至少有一大段日子,我不再恒心和上主說話了!

原來人就是這樣,在危難時才會醒起,當擁有了、滿足了,便遺忘了,遺忘了那個施恩的天主,不知上主有否失望?我懷念這段時光,每晚睡前和上主兩個人單純的、靜靜的,即使我們之間只有每天重複的一句話,但代表了我的信賴與依靠,主並沒有承諾天常蔚藍,但祂應許祂的愛常在!

當我拿起手上越配越貴的眼鏡,除了感激科技的進步外,我還會想起那個能支配太陽的天主!

讚美詩:
上主施大能,萬物化生;宇宙的千變萬化,早晨的曙光,午時的太陽,莫不惟命是從。
全能的造物主,求祢消滅邪惡的火焰,鏟除人間的紛爭,賜我形體安康,心靈享受真正的和平。

至仁至慈的聖父,同性同體的聖子,二者與聖神共融,統治大地人類,萬世無窮。阿們。

  1. Good morning, how are you?

    My name is Emilio, I am a Spanish boy and I live in a town near to Madrid. I am a very interested person in knowing things so different as the culture, the way of life of the inhabitants of our planet, the fauna, the flora, and the landscapes of all the countries of the world etc. in summary, I am a person that enjoys traveling, learning and respecting people's diversity from all over the world.

    I would love to travel and meet in person all the aspects above mentioned, but unfortunately as this is very expensive and my purchasing power is quite small, so I devised a way to travel with the imagination in every corner of our planet. A few years ago I started a collection of used stamps because trough them, you can see pictures about fauna, flora, monuments, landscapes etc. from all the countries. As every day is more and more difficult to get stamps, some years ago I started a new collection in order to get traditional letters addressed to me in which my goal was to get at least 1 letter from each country in the world. This modest goal is feasible to reach in the most part of countries, but unfortunately, it is impossible to achieve in other various territories for several reasons, either because they are very small countries with very few population, either because they are countries at war, either because they are countries with extreme poverty or because for whatever reason the postal system is not functioning properly.

    For all this, I would ask you one small favor:
    Would you be so kind as to send me a letter by traditional mail from Macau? I understand perfectly that you think that your blog is not the appropriate place to ask this, and even, is very probably that you ignore my letter, but I would call your attention to the difficulty involved in getting a letter from that country, and also I don’t know anyone neither where to write in Macau in order to increase my collection. a letter for me is like a little souvenir, like if I have had visited that territory with my imagination and at same time, the arrival of the letters from a country is a sign of peace and normality and an original way to promote a country in the world. My postal address is the following one:

    Emilio Fernandez Esteban
    Avenida Juan de la Cierva, 44
    28902 Getafe (Madrid)
    Spain

    If you wish, you can visit my blog www.cartasenmibuzon.blogspot.com where you can see the pictures of all the letters that I have received from whole World.

    Finally, I would like to thank the attention given to this letter, and whether you can help me or not, I send my best wishes for peace, health and happiness for you, your family and all your dear beings.

    Yours Sincerely

    Emilio Fernandez
