　　“我們正在讀一本書的第一章第一行，這本書的頁數(shù)是無限的……”　　我不知道是誰寫的，可我很喜歡這句話，它提醒我們未來是由自己創(chuàng)造的。我們可以把神秘、不可知的未來塑造成我們想象中的任何模樣，猶如雕刻家將未成形的石頭刻成雕像?！　∥覀兠總€人都像是農(nóng)夫：撒下良種將有豐收，播下劣種或任其生滿野草便將毀去收成，沒有耕耘則會一無所獲。　　我希望未來比過去更加美好，希望未來不會沾染歷史的錯誤與過失。我們都應(yīng)舉目向前，因?yàn)槲覀兊挠嗌梦磥頃鴮憽！　⊥粢咽牛o如止水；我們無法再作改變。而前方的未來正生機(jī)勃勃；我們所做的每一件事都將會影響著它。只要我們認(rèn)識到這些，無論是在家中還是在王作上，每天我們的面前都會展現(xiàn)出新的天地。在人類致力開拓的每一片領(lǐng)域上，我們正站在進(jìn)步的起跑點(diǎn)。

章節(jié)摘錄

　　The 4 Wives 生命中的四位愛人　　There was a rich merchant who had 4 wives. He loved the 4th wife the most and adorned her with rich robes and treated her to delicacies. He took great care of her and gave her nothing but the best.　　He also loved the 3rd wife very much. He’s very proud of her and always wanted to show off her to his friends. However, the merchant is always in great fear that she might run away with some other men.　　He too, loved his 2nd wife. She is a very considerate person, always patient and in fact is the merchant’s confidante. Whenever the merchant faced some problems, he always turned to his 2nd wife and she would always help him out and tide him through difficult times.　　Now, the merchant’s 1st wife is a very loyal partner and has made great contributions in maintaining his wealth and business as well as taking care of the household. However, the merchant did not love the first wife and although she loved him deeply, he hardly took notice of her.　　One day, the merchant fell ill. Before long, he knew that he was going to die soon. He thought of his luxurious life and told himself, “Now I have 4 wives with me. But when I die, I’ll be alone. How lonely I’ll be!”　　Thus, he asked the 4th wife, “I loved you most, and owed you with the finest clothing and showered great care over you. Now that I’m dying, will you follow me and keep me company?”　　“No way!” replied the 4th wife and she walked away without another word.　　The answer cut like a sharp knife right into the merchant’s heart. The sad merchant then asked the 3rd wife, “I have loved you so much for all my life. Now that I’m dying, will you follow me and keep me company?”　　“No!” replied the 3rd wife. “Life is so good over here! I’m going to remarry when you die!” The merchant’s heart sank and turned cold.　　He then asked the 2nd wife, “I always turned to you for help and you’ve always helped me out. Now I need your help again. When I die, will you follow me and keep me company?”　　“I’m sorry, I can’t help you out this time!” replied the 2nd wife. “At the very most, I can only send you to your grave.” The answer came like a bolt of thunder and the merchant was devastated.　　Then a voice called out: “I’ll leave with you. I’ll follow you no matter where you go.” The merchant looked up and there was his first wife. She was so skinny, almost like she suffered from malnutrition. Greatly grieved, the merchant said, “I should have taken much better care of you while I could have!”　　Actually, we all have 4 wives in our lives　　The 4th wife is our body. No matter how much time and effort we lavish in making it look good, it’ll leave us when we die.　　Our 3rd wife is our possessions, status and wealth. When we die, they all go to others.　　The 2nd wife is our family and friends. No matter how close they had been there for us when we’re alive, the furthest they can stay by us is up to the grave.　　The 1st wife is in fact our soul, often neglected in our pursuit of material, wealth and sensual pleasure.　　Guess what? It is actually the only thing that follows us wherever we go. Perhaps it’s a good idea to cultivate and strengthen it now rather than to wait until we’re on our deathbed to lament.　　從前，一位富有的商人娶了四個老婆。他最愛他的小老婆，給她華麗的衣裳和美味佳肴。他對她體貼入微，把最好的東西都給了她?！　∩倘艘埠軔鄣谌焕掀?。他為她感到驕傲，并常把她作為在朋友面前炫耀的資本。但他同時也憂心忡忡，怕她與其他男人跑了?！　‘?dāng)然，商人也愛二老婆，她既善解人意又耐心。事實(shí)上，她是商人的紅顏知己。每每遇到困難，他就會找她，而她也總能幫助他走出困境，渡過難關(guān)?！　≈劣诖罄掀?，她是一位忠誠的伴侶，替他照料生意、打理家務(wù)，忙里忙外，可謂勞苦功高。然而，盡管她愛得這么深，商人卻偏不鐘情于她，甚至沒把她放在心上?！　∫蝗?，商人得了重病，他自知將不久于人世。當(dāng)他回顧自己奢華的一生，不禁心中悵然：“現(xiàn)在我雖然有四個老婆相伴，但死后卻要孤零零一人。多寂寞?。　薄　∮谑?，他問小老婆：“我最疼你，給你買最漂亮的衣服，還對你呵護(hù)備至?，F(xiàn)在我就要離開這個世界了，你愿意隨我而去，與我相伴嗎？”　　“絕不可能！”她丟下一句話，徑自走開了?！　⌒±掀诺幕卮鹑缫话鸭獾恫逶谏倘诵纳?。傷心的商人繼而問第三個老婆：“我一直對你寵愛有加。如今，我將不久于人世，你愿意隨我而去，與我相伴嗎？”　　“不！”她拒絕道，“人間的生活多么美好?。∧闼篮笪視募匏?！”商人的心倏地下沉，漸漸變冷。　　他再轉(zhuǎn)向二老婆，問道：“我過去常常求助于你，你也總能為我排憂解難?，F(xiàn)在我想再請你幫一次忙。我死后，你愿意隨我而去，與我相伴嗎？”　　“很抱歉，這一次我?guī)筒涣四悖彼f，“我最多只能讓你入土為安?！边@句話猶如晴天霹靂，商人徹底絕望了。　　這時，旁邊傳來一個聲音：“我愿意隨你一同離去。無論你到哪里，我都會跟著你?！鄙倘颂痤^，看到了自己的大老婆。她是那么消瘦，一副營養(yǎng)不良的樣子。商人悲痛萬分，他說：“我過去就應(yīng)該好好地珍惜你?。　薄　∑鋵?shí)，我們每個人的一生都有四位愛人相伴?！　⌒±掀糯砦覀兊能|體。無論我們花費(fèi)多少的時間和精力想去裝扮她，我們死后它終會棄我們而去?！　〉谌焕掀糯碡?cái)產(chǎn)、地位與金錢。一旦我們?nèi)鍪治魅?，它終究會轉(zhuǎn)向他人?！　《掀艅t代表了我們的家人與朋友。我們活著的時候，無論他們與我們多么親近，他們最多也只能到墓前送我們最后一程?！　≈劣诖罄掀?，她則是我們的靈魂。當(dāng)我們沉迷于追求物質(zhì)、金錢或感官享受的時候，她常常會被遺忘在一旁?！　〗Y(jié)果呢？她才是唯一與我們永遠(yuǎn)相伴的。也許從現(xiàn)在開始，我們就應(yīng)該悉心照顧好她，而不是等到臨終之際才悔恨不已。
