My husband loves to watch movies. He even got a MFA to be a movie director. He spent
six years to get his BA. Why did he study so many years? Well, he spent two years studying in the US. Then he married me, we decided to return back to Taiwan. My husband continued his eduction again. But he had to start over again. Meanwhile he had to work and take care of children. When he got his BA, He had 2 kids. Then another 4 years for his MFA. When he graduated, he had 4 more kids. All at the same time he was a father and a student and an English teacher. He was a very busy man. He did not really have a good chance to make movies. But He completed his dream to study in Film. Well in our life, we have a lot of dreams, but how many do we reach???
When my husband spent ten years studying, I felt like it was a waste of time. Because most people spend 10 year to get a PHD or be a Doctor. But he just got a MFA, and he might not get any money from his MFA?!
But why he wasted so many years?? In fact, my husband has become smarter and more diligent. Before he met me, he just wanted to finish high school, only. He never liked school because he was bullied a to because of his red hair and being short.
When you grow up, the appearance won't matter any more. The wisdom and life experience will bring your respect.
When My husband spent so many years studying, I felt he would never finish. It would be just stay there forever. I just want to say, it was no waste of time, there are blessings in our life.
Now sometimes my husband likes to write short stories and film with my kids. (When he has time)
Here is a little movie Amira wrote and made with her daddy.
Becoming Vegan
A Rabbit tries to escape from a hungry predator.
我丈夫喜歡看電影。他甚至因此去讀電影創作碩士班，學習成為一名電影導演。他花費了六年時間取得學士學位。為什麼他學了這麼多年？當時他用兩年的時間在美國讀書。然後，他娶了我，我們決定回來台灣。我的丈夫又繼續完成他的學業。但是，當時學制沒辦法直接銜接，所以他必須重讀四年大學。這四年當中，他擔負養家活口的責任。等到他拿到學士學位時，他已經是兩個孩子的爸。
之後又花了四年時間拿到研究所學位。當他畢業時，他已經是有4個孩子了。作為一個父親和一個學生，跟一名英語老師。他是一個非常忙碌的人。他並沒有真正的好機會拍電影。但他完成了他的夢想。
在我們的生活中，我們有很多夢想，但我們有多少人能夠實現夢想？？？
當我的丈夫花十年的時間學習，當時的我覺得浪費。由於大多數人花10年讀書，不是攻讀博士或是當一名醫生、律師之類的。但他只得到MFA，好像沒法有很好的收入？
但是，他真得浪費了這麼多年來讀一個碩士學位嗎？事實上，我的丈夫變得更聰明和勤奮。之前，在他沒遇見我之前，他只是想要高中畢業就好。他從來不喜歡上學，因為他是個紅頭髮矮個子的小胖弟。
可是隨著年紀增長，外表會慢慢被內在的智慧與生活經驗所取代。
那時的十年學習，我先生並沒有因十年寒窗而一舉成名。但是絕對沒有浪費時間，那段日子學習時光裡，幫助他準備好下一個人生階段的開始。至少他完成一個夢想～
現在，有時候我丈夫喜歡寫故事、表演跟做小電影。（如果他有時間話）
上面影片連結就是我先生的短片，很粗糙但是跟小孩一起玩電影還是滿有意思的．．．

勇敢活出自己，不論收入高低，只要勇敢抓住機會
