《沉痛的黑夜》-写给突然走了的陈植渊

Zhang Chi (Feb 13, 2008)

今晚收到一个沉痛的消息,26岁的中国留美学生陈植渊,昨晚遭遇不明枪杀。在鼠年正月初三的2月9日晚,陈植渊身穿北京奥运会著名吉祥物福娃,在中国驻休斯敦总领馆支持下,和其他中国留学生和团体一道, 在美国休斯敦丰田体育中心NBA比赛现场进行精彩的表演,向18,000名美国主流观众,并通过现场电视直播向全世界积极宣传北京奥运会。表演结束之后,陈植渊不幸在中国城遭遇不明枪杀。

  和休斯顿总领馆一样,远方对陈植渊家属表示最深切的慰问。陈植渊曾在多次晚会上演唱远方原创歌曲,陈植渊的歌声和友情永远不会被忘记!谨以原创《沉痛的黑夜》寄哀思。。。

  也希望在美同胞们夜间出门要多加小心,遇事沉着应对,以确保人生安全。生命是宝贵的,也是脆弱的,值得珍惜,每一年,每一天,每一个瞬间!

  《沉痛的黑夜》

  -写给突然走了的陈植渊

  作词: 原版远方

  实在不忍心
  听到这个意外的恶迅
  昨晚丰田中心扮演福娃的兄弟
  倒在子弹飞射的血地

  实在不忍心
  看到这个无情的结局
  一个青春如玉蓬勃向上的生命
  被掠夺在寒冷的冬季

  没有人喜欢沉痛的黑夜
  没有人忘记微笑的容颜
  没有人懂得命运的渊源
  没有人相信悲剧会上演

  止不住的哭泣
  唤不回年轻的花季
  曾经的歌声和友情
  永远不会被忘记

我跟小胖其实不熟,见面的次数可以数得出来,一次是音乐猫的演出,一次是联合校友会的晚会,再一次就是丰田中心。虽然我没有跟他公事过,甚至没有和他深聊过,他依然给我留下很深刻的印象。我一直相信相由心生,小胖的憨厚善良,都在那一脸笑容里表露无疑。他性格开朗,乐于助人,朋友众多。因此,噩耗传来,所有人都震惊了。为什么,这么好的人,会遭遇这样的惨事?生命脆弱,世事无常。我无法解释小胖的离去,只能说,都是命。他的善心令他超脱俗世,超越我们所有人,因此他去了一个更好的地方。
无论他在哪里,我们永远都是朋友。相信那个微笑的小胖,始终在远方注视着我们。

良久都真的无法相信这是真的!可是,你真的走了!
很多很多感叹,可是却不知道从何说起,脑海里只留下我们一起打篮球时,留在回忆里抹不去的欢笑,还有你永远不会退色的面容。

只想说,尽管你的人生犹如昙花一现,却终身美丽.......

面对死亡,我又一次的心慌了,我又一次感受到自己的力不从心,自己的无能为力?谁能预料下一刻就会平平安安。任何的语言此刻都变得那么的苍白无力。我更加感慨于你的家人,谁能忍心把这震惊的消息告诉你的父母,谁能忍心看到那撕心裂肺的痛哭。一念之间却要接受如此大的变故,每周亲切的电话问候不再有,msn永远不会再上线,博客永远不会再更新,长久的寄托,思念,牵挂化为虚有,每逢佳节的想念更加剧烈,我能理解那份长期的痛,我能感受到人世间的那份不幸。一个原本幸福的家庭却要承受如此之深的打击。我知道这个世界时刻都会有不幸的故事发生,时刻有伤痛,但是我却要眼睁睁的看着他发生在我的身边,而我却无能为力。随着时间的流逝,什么都可以恢复往日的平静,身边的朋友也都开始做着各自的事情,可是你的家人如何能够呢?你的家人的那份牵挂,那份寄托怎么能说平淡下来就平淡下来呢?
生命之短,天灾人祸,无处不在,这件事情给我们了什么暗示呢?与死亡相比,其他的任何恩怨又算得了什么呢?有什么能比生命还宝贵吗?

昨天晚上几乎彻夜未眠。临睡前,反反复复的翻看着你的blog,看了我们所有的邮件聊天记录。记得你总是气呼呼跟我说话,我满不在乎的说,你别总生气,气多了容易早夭。没想到我当时的无意的玩笑话竟然变成了永恒。

In Memory of My friend - Ryan ( Zhiyuan, Chen)

Sabrina (Feb 13, 2008)

Ryan is one of my best friends in Houston. We arrived here around the same. As an international student, living overseas is definitely not an easy thing. There is one thing that Ryan knows the best is that we need to help each other so that we make each other's life easier. He was such a nice person with a kind heart for people around him.

There are a lot of memories in my mind and I simply can not help my self not to think about it. Sadness is not the only thing I feel and I believe I need to write something to express my memories of him. He was an easy going person and always offered help to his friends, he used to help me a lot. Ryan took me to take the driving test on many occasions, I was not confident of my driving ability, especially after
I failed my first two attempts. He was the one who took me to my test location at 6 am in the morning and waited in the line with me. He impressed me with his patience and comforted me when I failed the
test.

He was the one that helped me to shop around for a used car and in the end I finally got one from his uncle friend's shop. Although I did express my dissatisfaction that I did not get the car that I wanted, because the car gives me a lot of problems. He still tried to help me out by taking me to fix it or give me the options to fix the problem. The last time I took my car to the shop, he was the one which took me to my job at the Woodland. It took him almost two hours for the round trip, he did not complain one bit. A friend in need is a friend indeed, I really appreciated the way he treated me and he was such a wonderful friend.

I know I was not the only one that received the help from him. This semester, he helped his new school mate who just got here the end of last year. He arranged time to help her and others to shop for grocery. Its very easy for people to help each others once or twice, but he is different, he always tried to help others continuously. His kindness and warm heart brought comfort to many people around him.

I was so happy to hear that his girlfriend will come to Houston after her graduation this semester. He was very excited to tell me that. That was the last time we met. He told me about the trip he had with his girlfriend in New York and Boston. He suggested that I should take some time off to travel too. He also mentioned that his brother may come to Houston to study music next year. It seems that everything is going well for him, but he passed away so suddenly.

I still could not believe that he has left us. Tears dropped down from my eyes, every time I think about that. I believe he can and he will start his new peaceful life in heaven.

Thanks to Vivien for setting up this important site for all of us to post our memories and words to Ryan.

Since Ryan's incident, I even feel to have lost the ability to eat and sleep. I have lost such a good student and friend. In the past nearly two years, he helped too many persons per his ability.

He is also a very active member of UACA. When trying to setting up a website to memorize him, the most suitable person is Ryan again in my first thought. I even feel that he is still alive.

Life is short, but should not be so short.

Ryan like to eat, so I send him a Ice Cream for him to enjoy.

Bye Ryan!!

永远留存的歌声和笑容——By Fengxiang Qiao

一天来,实在不忍心一遍一遍地讲述那份伤痛。实在不忍心从电话中听到一阵阵的哭声。尽管没有人愿意相信,昨天还和我们一道在丰田中心扮演福娃的陈植渊永远地离我们而去了。德州南方大学中国学生学者联谊会已发出了讣告。陈植渊是德州南方大学中国学生学者联谊会2006-2007年度会长,联合校友会网络管理员。他是2月10 日凌晨2:40离世的。

  中国驻休斯敦总领事馆高度重视, 已督促警方迅速破案。家属也已联系上。

  相信认识陈植渊的朋友中有许多都得到过他的帮助,尤其是刚来美国期间的留学生。他帮助过许多人,帮助过他们接送机场、找公寓、买菜、学开车等等。

  2007年1月6日的休斯敦联合校友会新年晚会上,他演唱了由他哥哥作曲的歌曲《慢慢把我忘记》。

  陈植渊曾专门写了一篇文章《从一首横跨太平洋两岸的原创歌曲想到的—中国联合校友会2007年会·原创歌曲《慢慢把我忘记》》记叙创作和演唱过程。

  他把自己的歌声和笑容献给了我们,让我们永远记住他。我坚信,大家不会将他忘记的。他的音容笑貌将永远存留在我们中间!

  另请各位朋友,尤其是留学生朋友相互转告, 平定情绪, 注意安全,少出早归。我们会及时把最新的信息告诉大家的。

  希望各位朋友节哀!
