This old house is on my neighbour island in Penghu. It is in an heritage village and is lasting for over two hundred years. The day when I left Penghu and back to Taipei was the first day of cross strait flight normalised day. The relationship between Taiwan and China is changing. Maybe it is not new to this old house. It has looked so many changes and still stands there. The world keeps changing. I also discharge from the military and can not back to the never land.

給自己的明信片好像其實都有說不完的話。這張澎湖望安花宅明信片不知道為什麼，留在身邊留了好久。留在身邊最久沒寄出去的明信片，不是特別喜歡，不然就是沒什麼感覺，所以不知道寄給誰。我的澎湖島，沒有出明信片，而這張離我最近的景點，就是因為距離近，所以也遲遲沒有拜訪。等到實地走訪後，好像也沒有對象好寄了。很幸運的是，回到台北恰好趕上兩岸定期直航班機首航，然而兩岸直航到底會把兩岸關係推向什麼境界呢？大概跟背後所題的銘言雷同吧！曾經滄海難為水，兩岸已不復從前中華一家的情感。老房子依舊在，世事且多 變。我也退伍不再是也不應再是那青澀的年輕人了。
