想了想了,決定做張梳化床,用它三、五十年,然後裹身一同離去。符合環保原則,多麼親切,多好……
再想,藉著每天親近梳化床的互動,親身感受「死」是人生的一部份這概念;親近面對自己人生的一個功課。
無常。是梳化床和棺木之間。
無常。是今生和死亡和來生之間。
之間。應該是珍惜……是正面……是積極……是自在……
無常。是體驗人生。

As I thought about all these, I decided to make a sofa bed for my own use for up to 30 or 50 years until I passed away in it. How environmental friendly it is, and how intimate it is to me…
As I thought more deeply, I knew that by interacting intimately with the sofa bed everyday I could experience how “death” is regarded as part of one’s life. It would be a task for me to come face-to-face with my own life.
Impermanent. Between a sofa bed and a coffin.
Impermanent. Between this life, death and the next life.
In between. There should be the will to cherish…It should be positive…proactive…and free…
Impermanent. The experiencing of life.
