我是快20年前看到羅賓威廉斯在早安,越南裡頭的演出，而被其演技所折服的：一個平凡的DJ也可以如此妙語如珠並且撫慰人心。
劇中傳來偉大的Louis Armstrong歌聲，美軍直昇機隨著What a wonderful world升起、年輕美軍在叢林中緊張的偵察、美軍在西貢街頭任意槍決越南人、一幕幕死傷的畫面怵目驚心。
這個戰爭或叢林法則還是不停的在每個朝代上演。
小老百姓與政治人物所看到的「美好世界」是不相同的：
低下層的百姓或阿兵哥，心中懷抱著美好世界，是藍天、青草、小孩的哭聲、吃飽沒？ 所以結婚、生小孩，只想好好工作，組織家庭，讓小孩健康成長，生活無慮。
高層的政治人物、將領所看到的「美好世界」，盤算的卻是更多。越南可能是救贖之地，新加坡或瑞士也可以是拯救、捐輸民主運動的聖地。
什麼時候小老百姓與政治人物所看到的「美好世界」才會是一致的呢？
I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
and I think to myself, what a wonderful world
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
the bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
and I think to myself, what a wonderful world
the colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands, saying, "how do you do?"
they're really saying, "I love you"
I hear babies cry, I watch them grow
they'll learn much more, than I'll ever know
and I think to myself, what a wonderful world
yes, I think to myself, what a wonderful world
