This is the story my uncle told us, "One day I get off work, went back home, enter my bedroom, and I saw the bed cabinets which was stick to the wall and arranged in a row all vanished. I thought I enter the wrong house." My Aunt tear them down by herself. Because she thought they are NOT BEAUTIFUL.
My Aunt had never done the woodworker job, and she knows nothing about how to use the woodworker tools, is was hard to image how she did it. But she just did.
It was kind of Incredible story to me until now. I saw the job my Aunt have done for her Villa, Jiliyanlan(Named in Her native language, meaning By the SeaCoast) , in TaiDong, Taiwan.
當過年的時候聽到舅舅說：「某天下班回家，發現主臥室的床頭櫃到矮櫃，整排被拆走消失了。」，除了驚訝，並沒有太多的實感。
很難想像到底整排櫃子被拆走是怎麼個畫面。
也很難想像舅媽一個人怎麼辦到的，想像一個沒有接觸過木工的女人，拿著我想不出來會是什麼樣的工具(釘錘，鐵撬？)，拆掉主臥室一整排矮櫃，理由因為：它們太醜了。
……有點不可思議。
一般情形，看裝潢的某個櫃子很醜很討厭，會講講「啊，我想把它拆掉」；但是會真的就拿起工具站起身「那我們拆了它吧！」，還真的成功了讓你回家的丈夫嚇一大跳以為走錯房間，我想我也就聽過這一個故事而已。
當時，我覺得「這是一個故事」。
不過今天我親身體會到了這份堅持。

this is the stone alley she made by the front door, she insist to use the WHITE COLOR STONE only. so that it can look more beautiful.
And where did she get the white color stone? She pick them out one by one from the stone lane in the front yard, you can see from the picture below, from all those black stones, gray stones....she spent many many days pick out the white stones one by one.
it sounds like the old fairy tale, pick out the green peas and red peas from the mixed crops in one night.
And again, she just did it.
而這些白色的石頭怎麼來的呢？從舖車道的五顏六色的石頭們裡「一顆一顆撿出來」的。

親自目睹總覺得不可思議，好像童話故事裡頭那個從混在一起的穀物裡撿出紅豆綠豆分兩堆，花了多少時間，多少天，蹲在那裡一顆一顆把「白石頭」撿出來。來排成這一排環繞走廊的小小步道？
「好累。後來撿到白石頭都沒有了，只好再去海邊撿。」舅媽說。
她說好累但她說得很有成就感。
她不會強調碗盤一定要擺正，畫框一定不要歪對齊九十度水平線，但是她會全心全意去弄好這些細節；對「美麗」的堅持和執著。
毫不妥協的那種堅持。
「我就是要這些看起來美美的。讓我的客人可以很自在的放鬆。」
這就像畫家花三個小時只為了調出心目中最棒的顏色，覺得不可思議的同時，也覺得佩服當中的強大。
"It was really hard work, very very tired." said my Aunt, but she is proud of her work.
"I think it's my job to make a beautiful Villa, make a beautiful yard, to let my guest surround in beauty and totally relax." She said.
She told me about her new decoration plan, the new trees and new flowers she just plant, I think she is an artist, her house is her presentation.
And she would watch every details, try everything she can to present the beauty she wants, no matter how hard it could be.
Insist on make everything beautiful.
I took her working picture below, she's taking care of the her flowers.
I am very much proud of her.

這幾天她花了好幾個下午在整理花園，安置從台東新買回來的花。我想舅媽心中，可能又有另一幅作品。她說希望這棟房子能隨著季節變換不同的樣貌。
期待她帶來的另一幕美麗。
