三月七號的活動拖到四月才貼
史上最會拖是我XD
.
活動名為「一樹一山」
想是以一棵樹為起始 開遍滿山的白花吧~
很開心能有這個特別的體驗
否則城裡的我 哪有機會在花盆以外的土壤植樹?
此行也學到植樹的重點步驟
.
在適當的地點挖夠深的土坑(比想像的困難許多 很扎實也很多石塊)
栽下樹苗 回填土壤(保持樹幹在相對低處 才容易匯集雨水)
以三根竹竿協助穩定樹苗(要用工具或石塊敲入土中 再用布繩綑緊)
在離開前送上最後的禮物 一桶甘甜的清水 緩緩澆灌根部
.
很佩服活動的主導人 @wind0411
有理想 有執行力 號召力
而我就是抱著和朋友出遊 體驗的心態去拍幾張照片罷了
在我思考活動的意義時
不免懷疑我們種這幾棵樹有什麼助益
為山?為氣候?為生態?
還是要種更多才能有意義呢?
.
男孩和海星的故事給了我答案
也許拯救不了所有沙灘上海星
不過 對於被拯救到的每一隻海星
是滋潤的海水 是充滿希望的生命
.
也許三年後
「小花一號」「小花二號」等八位孩子
他們開枝散葉 根深柢固 不再需要竹竿時
會享受這片天和微風
小學的學童們會在樹下嬉鬧遮陽
蜜蜂蝴蝶會在花穗旁飛舞
鳥兒會在枝葉間休憩輕唱
這些足以作為這次揮汗如雨的意義吧?

Call me King of staling
This was an event on 7 March but it’s not posted until April lol
.
The name of this event is “One tree, One mountain”
It should be more or less about something starting from a single tree towards flowers all over the mountain?
I’m thrilled to be able to experience this for where in this city can I get the chance to plant a tree except the potted plants I keep?
I also got some insight to the key steps of planting a tree.
.
Dig deep enough at the right location (it’s much harder than it sounds as the ground is very solid and full or rocks)
Plant the sapling and cover it with soil (it has to be kept relatively low so that it can be moisturised by the rain
Stabilise the sapling with three bamboo sticks (secure them in the soil by knocking them into the ground with rocks or other tools, and then tie them with ropes)
Give your parting gift (the source of life - water) at its root
.
I admire the organiser @wind0411 for his ideals, execution and charisma while I was just hoping to hang out with my friends, gain some experience and take some photos
I couldn’t help but think about what good is it to simply plant a few trees?
For the mountains? For the climate? For the eco system?
How many more have to be planted to be relevant?
.
The story of a boy and starfish enlightened me.
Saving all the starfishes on the beach is impossible but every starfish represents a hope of life longing for the healing ocean
.
“Little tree 1” “little tree 2” and the other six may not need the bamboo sticks anymore when they are fully grown and their root fully crawl into the ground
They may enjoy the sky and the breeze;
Shelter the students and kids playing underneath them from the sun;
Watch the bees and butterflies dance at nearby flower fields;
Be the base for the birds resting and singing on their branches
These may be the real meaning for this sweaty event I guess?

【出外鬆一鬆】正在計劃去露營的值得一看
⭐記得要在指定地點紮營
⭐紮營前先觀察地勢環境
#星期一踢走BlueMonday
外出露營抖抖氣
聰明選擇紮營位置
香港地方雖少,但也有不少地點可供露營,場地分為政府或私人管理的,要注意如在非指定地區露營或許會違反郊野守則,所以出發露營前記得做足功課。當到達露營地點後,又該選哪一個位置紮營最好呢?以下紮營選址小貼士可能幫到你。
✔️背風
留意天氣報告,注意不要在當風方向紮營,帳篷門記得要面向背風的一面,生火煮食也容易一點。
✔️接近水源
除非自己帶備足夠的水,否則難免要在露營地點取水使用,所以紮營地點宜接近水源,亦要檢視水源是否清潔。但要注意不宜在水源旁邊或低窪處紮營,以防下雨時山洪暴發有危險。
✔️地面平坦
建議挑選平坦的位置紮營,紮營前先檢視有沒有石頭突起,在草地上紮營睡覺時會舒適一點,大草皮亦較適合有小朋友的家庭活動,但要注意如果下雨天有可能會積水,而碎石地排水性則比較好。
✔️大樹好遮蔭
在樹木旁邊紮營,刮風時能有天然屏障,陽光猛烈的日子亦能避免曝曬。
✔️無痕露營
去露營是融入大自然生活,所以選址要尊重荒野生態,以不破壞大自然環境為原則,不折斷樹木或枯木,不污染水源,減低對草和泥土的傷害。

Take a breather by camping outdoors
Pitch your tent at the right place
Though land scarcity is an issue in Hong Kong, it is not short of public and private campsites. Do note that it might be illegal to camp in areas that are not designated as campsites, so it is important to do your homework.
So how do we choose the best spot to pitch our tent? Here are some helpful tips.
✔️ Stake your tent against the wind
Take note of the weather report. Turn the entrance to the tent away from the prevailing wind direction. By doing so, you can light and protect your campfire more effectively.
✔️ Stay close to the water source
Accessibility to water in the campsite is important, unless you bring enough water for your entire trip. Pitch your tent near the water source, and make sure it is safe for use. Avoid lowland where the rainwater might accumulate and cause landslides.
✔️Opt for flat land
Set up your tent on a flat land, and check for rocks and stones on the ground. It would be more comfortable to sleep on top of grass. Grassland may be suitable for kids-friendly activities but can also trap water easily. Land with gravels, on the other hand, will have better drainage.
✔️Build your tent beneath an overhanging tree
Large trees are nature’s windshield, and they can provide good shade and protect campers from direct sun.
✔️Practice good camping manners and respect nature
Camping outdoors is a way for us to get closer to nature, so it is vital for us to respect nature and not destroy the flora and fauna. We should avoid activities like breaking tree branches, polluting the water source, damaging grass and scrubs, and contaminating soil.

where to get tree branches 在 Milton Goh Blog and Sermon Notes Facebook 的精選貼文
“You search and keep on searching and examining the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and yet it is those [very Scriptures] that testify about Me;” (John 5:39 AMP)
The Bible is the story of Yahweh (Jesus) finding a perfect bride for Himself.
When Adam sinned, God already had a plan to reconcile mankind to Himself.
Yahweh sovereignly chose the nation of Israel which came from the loins of Abraham to be His special treasure, like a beloved bride.
But Israel committed spiritual adultery with the idols of the Gentile nations.
When she had gotten so corrupt, even worse than Sodom, Yahweh divorced her, and Israel ceased to be considered His people for a time (Ezekiel 16).
“He said, “Call his name Lo-Ammi; for you are not my people, and I will not be yours.” (Hosea 1:9 WEB)
Under the Law, the penalty for adultery was death. Israel should have been totally wiped out, but Yahweh had a plan to legally reserve a remnant of Israel for Himself.
““‘The man who commits adultery with another man’s wife, even he who commits adultery with his neighbor’s wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.” (Leviticus 20:10 WEB)
His plan was hinted by the prophets and finally revealed when Yahweh appeared as Jesus to die on the cross for not just Israel’s sins, but the sins of the whole world.
Through dying in the place of His beloved bride and thereby paying for her sins, Jesus has a righteous basis to reconcile Israel to Himself.
His bride is at root Jewish, but Gentiles have been grafted in as well—everyone who placed their faith in Jesus as Lord becomes a citizen of Israel that has been born of the Spirit—a chosen people of promise, not by the flesh.
“But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them, and became partaker with them of the root and of the richness of the olive tree; don’t boast over the branches. But if you boast, it is not you who support the root, but the root supports you.” (Romans 11:17-18 WEB)
Today we are part of a Jewish marriage custom which reflects the heavenly marriage process as well.
We are in the betrothal stage whereby our Bridegroom Jesus has given us special gifts to purchase us as His bride.
He has washed us with His own blood and the water of His water, making us pure and unblemished.
He has dressed us with ministry and spiritual gifts like golden crowns, bangles and necklaces.
Now we are waiting for Him to come and receive us to His Father’s house for the private wedding and honeymoon.
In a Jewish wedding, the bridegroom comes to receive the bride at a time that she doesn’t know.
They don’t meet each other for at least a week to remain ceremonially holy and this also increases the anticipation and longing for each other.
The bride only knows an estimated period of time, so she has to be dressed and ready for it to happen at any time during that season of time.
This speaks of the Rapture of the saints—we know the signs that indicate the closeness to His return, but we don’t know the exact day or hour. Nevertheless our spirit longs for Jesus’ return.
When the church is in Heaven with Jesus, that period of 7 years is like the private honeymoon. During this time, the world will be going through the Tribulation—Daniel’s 70th week, also known as the time of Jacob’s trouble.
In a Jewish wedding, after the couple consummate their marriage during their honeymoon, they will emerge from the room and appear to their invited guests at a marriage feast to celebrate with them.
This speaks of the Second Coming of Christ. Jesus will return to earth with His bride (that’s us) and defeat the Antichrist. He will then set up His Millennial kingdom from Jerusalem—like a marital home where He will live with His bride.
The marriage feast will be held in the Millennial Kingdom on earth. The virgins at the feast (Matthew 25:1-13) represent Jews who place their faith in Jesus during the Tribulation, while the servants of the bridegroom (Luke 12:35-40) represent the Gentiles who place their faith in Jesus during the Tribualtion.
At the marriage feast of the Lamb, eternal rewards will be given out to every believer at that time. It will be a great day of celebration for all the redeemed!
“and you will be blessed, because they don’t have the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous.” When one of those who sat at the table with him heard these things, he said to him, “Blessed is he who will feast in God’s Kingdom!”” (Luke 14:14-15 WEB)
In my book “Sandcastles Don’t Last Forever” you will learn more about eternal rewards as well as how to identify and fulfill your God-given calling in this lifetime.
