為了爭取保存中環天星碼頭的鐘樓,有市民在清拆鐘樓前夕連夜抗爭,甚至以絕食來表示決心。最終鐘樓已被拆走,但他們仍然把抗議行動持續下去。
這些市民認為,此座四十多年歷史的鐘樓是香港人的「集體回憶」;政府在遷拆碼頭之餘應該把鐘樓在原址安放,或整座搬到新址,以保存大家的「集體回憶」云云。
我一直以為,「回憶」是存在於大家的腦海之中。「回憶」者,乃心中憶起想起一些已過去的人或事也。「睹物思人」固然是一種情懷,但就算該「物」已經不存在,卻絕不會減滅我們的「回憶」。
比如一班舊同學聚會,大家免不了會重提中小學時的日子,對那座古老校舍緬懷一番。如今那座老校舍早已被拆走,換成了十多層高的教育大樓,然而老校舍仍永存在我們的心中,成為我們的「集體回憶」。
至於香港人的「集體回憶」實在太多。我懷念以前大戲院的樓上超等座位,我懷念以前有煙噴出來的火車,我懷念在馬路邊的大牌檔雲吞麵……可是,這些東西我們都留不住,就連抗議的機會也沒有。
所以我覺得,與其去強行留住留不住的鐘樓,不如去好好珍惜仍在行走中的電車吧。
