  • 日本的地名,充滿詩意

    那些靜靜存在、卻在心中留下詩的一行的名字。 走在日本,光是看著地名,就像在讀一首詩。 那不是翻譯錯覺,也不只是文字的美感,而是一種語言與風景、歷史與情感交織出來的氣氛。 像是「霧島」,彷彿山巒深處,霧氣流轉之地; 「由布院」,聽起來像風在樹葉間流動,溫泉蒸氣裊裊升起; 「月寒」,有種淡淡的孤寂與清冷,像一首冬夜的俳句。 有些地名讓人聯想到四季: 春天的「花卷」、夏日的「涼風」、秋夜的「鹿角」、冬雪裡的「白川鄉」。 也有些地名,像是訴說著一段歷史: 「鎌倉」、「長岡京」、「大和」,名字裡自帶厚重與靜謐。 而像「水無瀨」、「香住」、「風間浦」這些名字,本身就是一種畫面。你不需要去過那裡,就能感覺到水的流動、香氣的殘留、海風的輕拂。 說到這些詩意地名,我總會想起——神戶。 「神」是神聖的,「戶」是門扉。神戶的名字原本來自「侍奉神明之地」,後來成為港都的名字。這裡的海與山、歷史與現代、災難與重生,讓這個名字更添一層溫柔與堅韌。 神戶就像是一座靜靜敞開的大門,迎著來自遠方的海風,也守著過往的信仰與傳承。 日本的地名,常常只是一排字,卻能勾起整片風景、整段記憶。它們無需強調,也不刻意展示,只是靜靜地存在,靜靜地美著。 有些地方,你一輩子可能只會路過一次。 但那個名字,卻會在你心中,留下詩的一行。 Read more

  • 小公司 MIS 的雲端生存筆記

    在這個雲服務時代,身為小公司的 MIS,最常面對的不是新技術,而是 成本、方便、與模糊地帶的拉扯。 為了省錢,我們常常用免費的雲服務: LINE、Teams、Google 全家桶,能省就省。 即便使用人數還在「合法授權」的範圍內,三不五時還是會跳出升級廣告,提醒你:「嘿,要不要花點錢,換個安心?」 更麻煩的是,這些廣告大多是從 services.xxx.com 這種通用子網域送出,跟真正的功能服務混在一起。 你想靠防火牆擋?一刀切下去,廣告沒了,服務也跟著壞掉。 所以要完全隔絕,幾乎不可能。 這些「小煩惱」,正是免費版背後的隱形代價。 最後只好自己找個平衡: Read more

  • 最重要的風景 The Most Important View

    What positive emotion do you feel most often? 當然是愛人的話語。 即使相隔兩地,手機螢幕還是會在某個普通的下午,跳出一顆愛心。 那一瞬間,我會停下手邊的事,笑一下—— 因為我知道,那顆愛心不是隨便貼的,它跨過了距離,也跨過了想念的重量。 Of course, it’s the words from the one I love. Even when we’re apart, a little heart still… Read more
