Seed / 種子

從早上起床我一路畫圖畫到上班，雖然心裡有很多火花，開始工作的那一刻卻滿臉平靜，還做了好幾個人的心理諮商。

After waking up this morning, I drew all the way to work. Though my heart was crowded with sparks, I looked as composed as ever the moment I started working. I even did some mental counseling for several people. 

傍晚和楷維玩互相畫肖像的遊戲，我想到三十一年前，爸爸媽媽以為自己的女兒是畢卡索，不能埋沒我的才華，送我到畫室學畫圖。當時哪會知道比成為畢卡索更重要的是，這顆小種子變成我心靈的依靠。

In the evening, Kai and I practiced drawing portraits for each other. It then occurred to me that 31 years ago, my parents had the epiphany that I was Picasso incarnate when they saw my first drawing. They immediately sent me to a studio for fear that my talent might be left in oblivion. They didn't know that better than making me Picasso, the seed has become my gigantic mental support. 

希望楷維在三十年之後也有一刻會這麼想到我。

I hope Kai will think of me in the same way in thirty years...
