小人物的心声
This meaning of this song became so much clearer when I started working. Working made me realise how much I didn't want to be in a position of great power. With great power comes great responsibility. The now famous movie line from Spiderman. It's not that I want to shirk from any responsibility whatsoever. Little kids always say that they want to be the prime minister or the president when they grow up, but I think it really takes that special person to lead and truly believe that he or she is doing this for the people. So what if you get a powerful position, earn lots of money, but yet have to slog everyday and find little time for yourself. Unless a person likes to do this sort of thing, I wouldn't call that a life. So the song encapsulates how I feel. I never felt the need to be somebody powerful or famous, as the line says "因为平凡也是一种幸福". Being ordinary is also a blessing. A blessing that allows you to have time for yourself and to those you love. A blessing that allows you to do what you like doing.
