Here’s a nice article. I shall translate it to English later…
希腊神话里,爱神丘比特身上背了两支箭,一支金箭,一支铅箭。传说被金箭射中的人就会滋生爱苗,情爱如痴,被铅箭射中的人就反目成仇,恨之入骨。
一般人总是希望永远不要被铅箭射中,而且希望天天被金箭射中。可叹的是,丘比特总是双箭连发,当一个人为金箭沉迷的时候,第二支箭马上就射来了。
但是人有所不知,金箭与铅箭不是背在丘比特身上,而是背负在我们自己心上。我们热爱一个人的时候,其心如金,闪闪生辉,所到之处鸟语花香皆如春天;我们怨恨人的候,其心如铅,灰败沉重,所到之地冰雪封冻,一如严冬。
其实我们每个人都背负着金箭与铅箭。
爱神,就是我们自己。


























I don’t understand it. Please, to have it in English.
Happy New Year and Kong Hee Fatt Choy

I used to like a girl and always be there but I just couldn’t bring myself to confess , now she has another bf and I am full of hatred as she just forget me like chewing gum . Oh well I was able to move on .

金箭与铅箭被射中后,在体内起了古怪的化学作用,那就是”爱恨交叉”.
