電影院
你們能夠了解我為了這
獨自一人來到陌生而且
我想為我的工作付出更
但因我的語言和外表隨
我為他們家庭的節慶聚
而我對我自己的信仰的
我沒有辦法出聲
即使我的身體和心靈無
我親愛的家人和村子的
當你們羨慕我為這個家
還有我身上美麗的傳統
有誰知道這件衣服上的
都是我的眼淚和心碎所

Do you know How much tear dropping for my family?
I came to this unfamiliar city alone, no friends, not understand
I wanted to work harder for a better living for my family,
But my accent, my language, my face are what they were bulling on!
I worked endlessly for their family gathering
My religion was not respected even insulted rudely
I couldn't say anything
Even my body and soul were cruelly invaded
My dearest family and neighbors in the village
While your admiring the house and car I brought for my family
And my beautiful Kebaya the traditiona
Do you know that each inch of this outfits
Were knitted by my tears and broken heart!!!

**想像力的練習**
第一年在國外工作的時候,一次在印尼峇里島的機場接機,一位媽媽推著一大堆的行李和電器用品,從台灣回來的班機入境。家裡的人在接機門穿著傳統的服裝迎接,小孩子看到媽媽整個人跳到媽媽的身上,親戚朋友幫忙扶著差一點落下來的堆高的行李和電器用品。
我心裡面想著,我也是在國外工作,好在我的工作環境非常好,但也時常有很多文化上和習慣上的衝擊。對於幫傭來說,在台灣工作,有誰可以理解他在台灣的幾年間,受盡多少的折磨和疲累,家庭分離的難過。這些畫面好像電影院的放映的膠卷,畫面不斷閃過來....
