Photography itself has truly transformed me and how I see people and the world around me.
�It has made me into a person who seeks truth, beauty and deeper meaning whatever external circumstances I’m placed amidst.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It has given me the desire and ability to connect with people, to empathise, and to be in the present.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It has also put me in the path of so many beautiful and courageous women (and men) whose character and stories have inspired me in my own journey of being and becoming.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What is an ‘aha’ moment in your life this crazy COVID year?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

The meaning of re-provoking 721 | Lee Yee
LIHKG forum started a thread titled “Congratulations to the Hong Kong Police Force (HKPF) for Raising Global Awareness Again for the Jul. 21 incident (721).” There were continuous comments on the thread that linked to international media reports on the HKPF’s various deliberate misrepresentations. Many social media were also swept by a flood of all the videos previously published since 721: live broadcasts, subsequent comprehensive reports including Hong Kong Connection’s “721 Yuen Long Nightmare” which had 8.32 million views in just over five months since the clip was published, and “Truth of 721” which had over 1.3 million views since its upload last month. The large amount of visual media trending on social media is the explosion of citizens actions to challenge the copious amount of lies.
The biggest effect of HKPF re-provoking 721 is to let those Hongkongers, especially foreigners, whose memories of the incident have faded, to remember it again. How can people believe the fabricated lies when they once again witness the scenes and listen to the people who lived through it recount the experience? In that case, what is the purpose of reviving people’s memory? Surely it is not because the trust score of Carrie Lam’s regime is not low enough?
Hong Kong has realized the words of the Russian author and dissident, Aleksandr Isayevich Solzhenitsyn, of whom I once quoted: “We know they are lying. They know they are lying. They also know that we know they are lying. We also know that they know that we know they are lying. But they are still lying.”
A reader asked me the source of this quotation but I could not find it. It was only based on the Internet, nevertheless it is fantastic. Solzhenitsyn had written so many articles on deception and the authoritarian regime so it is possible that he had said it just once during a conversation. Another Russian writer, Elena Gorokhova, said something similar in a book published in 2010: “The rules are simple: they deceive us, we know they are lying, they know that we know they are lying, but they keep on lying to us, and we keep on pretending to believe them.” The significance of re-provoking 721 is spelled out in these two passages.
Why are they still lying when they know that we know that they are lying? This is because, under the tyranny of totalitarianism, the fabrication of lies is not to make the people believe but to make one’s case sound plausible when justifying with the superior. 721 was a defining moment in the timeline of the anti-Extradition Law Amendment Bill (anti-ELAB) movement that reversed the perception of the people of Hong Kong and the international community towards the HKPF and HKSAR government. In other words, after the incident, the image of the HKPF tumbled from the protector of the people to a tool of tyranny. Therefore, the distortion of facts is not for the people to believe but to let their “own people” including their superiors to “pretend to believe” so as to maintain the “legitimacy pretense.”
Another implication of re-provoking this incident is that the behavior of lying even when knowingly they cannot deceive proves the existing regime is a true tyranny.
Solzhenitsyn said, “Tyranny finds its only refuge in falsehood and falsehood in tyranny finds its only support.” “Tyranny must be interwoven with falsehood. Between them, they have the closest and deepest natural union.” Because of this intimate natural bonding, in the presence of deceptions regardless of whether people will believe it or not, it is tantamount to proclaiming the existence of tyranny.
The significance of re-provoking this incident is threefold. It also illustrates the greatest crisis in Hong Kong. It is not those in power and the pro-Beijing camp pretending to believe in the distorted facts, but that the increasing number of Hongkongers willing to tolerate the lies and also pretending that the stag is a horse. The Czech dissident writer and former President of Czechoslovakia, Václav Havel said that when people “have to acquiesce, endure and drift along with the lies, then every person can only survive in lies. People do not need to accept lies, it is enough that they endure a life of living in and with lies. In this way, people validate, perfect, create and become this system.”
The Chinese have “become this system.” Hongkongers must not only protect the truth, but also be wary of themselves and the people around them to not pretend to believe in lies and not participate in distorting facts for personal gain. Solzhenitsyn said, “If we are fearful even to detach from the participation of lying, then we are worthless and hopeless.” The sarcasm of Russian writer, Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin, is most applicable to us: “Why give animals freedom? Their fate is to be bound by chains and flogged with whips, generation after generation!”
Hongkongers must take heed of this heart-wrenching remark!

Hey it's my BIRTHDAY! 🎈🎁
"What do you realize during lockdown?"
This is a forced time.
It wasn't part of our plans but we have to commit to it. The goals we have set previously are nothing to what we are aiming now and it relates to mastering new skills or getting the best shape that relates for personal, professional growth and excellence! (Yeah, excellence... at home 😂)
We are achieving extraordinary targets while establishing new meaning of relationship; the one that's always on the textbook.
At home, you will never experience this moment again. That moment where you wake up complete with your family and worry together for survival. You cook, you join the conversation, you saw the smallest details you never noticed before, what you lack at home, your siblings nuissances, your unread books, your messy digital life, your family's wonderful unheard moments, etc. Lucky that you have your family during this crisis while I'm far away from them but I see it through my friends story. Challenging yet one of the best times right?
I'm also a believer of putting myself over other things is very productive but this lockdown brought me back to my senses that being there for others is also fruitful.
Calling them.
Asking how they are.
How was their day.. at home.
Have they eaten.
And asking them to be safe...
I never appreciated this parting words before but now, its has a lot more meaning than just plainly saying "hey be safe ahh"
It's the most sincere "please be safe" I've ever said.
We are all social butterflies now. Spreading warmth through video calls while reaching out.
We are also awaken to the truth the life is simple and its only us that makes it really complicated.
Reality check. Reality bites.
I could go on but it'll be long.
To sum everything up, this is probaly one of the best eye opener of our lives.
That life is precious and time is really gold.
As I celebrate my birthday in my solitary room, Honestly, I never felt empty and alone and I really wouldn't mind if this lockdown goes on for a while.
For the mean time, its time to make my wish list for post-lockdown and it'l be the bestest plan ever.
Happy birthday to me!
Padeep ako dito 😅 @ Singapore

今日は、『君の名は。』英訳シリーズの最後の曲となる、「夢灯籠」をお届けします♪
いつも私の動画をご視聴いただき、又チャンネル登録・好評・シェア等をしていただき、ありがとうございます(^◇^) 多くの方が私の訳詞カバーを気に入ってくださってとても嬉しいです♪ これからもたくさんの動画をアップしますので、今後とも宜しくお願いします!
Here is my English cover of "Yume Tourou," the last song in my "Your Name" series! Thanks so much to everyone that has watched my videos, subscribed, given thumbs up, and shared! I'm so glad that you all like what I'm doing, and I hope you'll continue to check out my future videos :)
*Meaning of the song's title:
Yume = "dream"
Tourou = "lantern"
There is a tradition called "tourou nagashi" where a paper lantern is set afloat during the last day of the O-bon festival. The lantern lights the way for the souls of the departed to cross back into the afterlife after they visit at O-bon (hopefully I'm correct in the details). So I think this title is meant to give the image of a lantern lighting the way into or out of a dream. I think this song really only makes sense in the context of the movie :)

歌詞 / LYRICS
~♪~♪~♪~♪~♪~
Ah, if only our voices that speak in the night
Instead of fading into the edges of light at far ends of Earth
Could find their way through all of space, all of time
Oh, and if they could, what would we say?
What will the words be that we first exchange?
Let’s make a promise, one that will never fade
On my count of three, say it with me, yeah
Ah, I’m told that some part of every wish will be heard
But lately I lost sight of the truth in those words
I can’t even remember when I gave up believing
What could have been the reasoning?
Ah, you told me in the very moment that the rain subsides
And everywhere a rainbow is born or dies
And where the end of this life lies
You always would insist there was something that begins nearby
One day we’ll go, unearth emotions we’d buried all our lives
We’ll high-five love we’ve yet to discover and give a kiss to time
The five dimensions may laugh right in my face
But I will keep on looking at you, babe
Let’s decide on a sign for when we say “nice to meet you” again
I’m on my way to you, chasing after your name
いつか行こう 全生命も未到 未開拓
itsuka ikou zen-seimei mo mitou mikaitaku
の感情にハイタッチして 時間にキスを
no kanjou ni hai-tacchi shite jikan ni kisu wo
5次元にからかわれて それでも君をみるよ
go-jigen ni karaka-warete sore demo kimi wo miru yo
また「はじめまして」の合図を決めよう
mata "hajimemashite" no aizu wo kimeyou
君の名を 今追いかけるよ
kimi no na wo ima oi-kakeru yo
