馬背上的葛黛瓦夫人
惟雯說故事
1040年,英國考文垂市的利奧夫里克伯爵迎娶了葛黛瓦為妻。
葛黛瓦夫人貌美如花,氣質端莊典雅,人們都對她十分傾慕,可她卻整日悶悶不樂。
伯爵看在眼裡疼在心裡,有一天,他終於忍不住問她:“您為何如此憂鬱,難道奴僕們待您不好嗎?”
葛黛瓦搖搖頭,說:“這裡的百姓臉上都寫滿了怨忿,我哪裡高興得起來?”
伯爵生氣地說:“您為了一群賤民而憂愁,真是有失體統。”
葛黛瓦哀求道:“可他們都快活不下去了,您能替他們減輕一點稅負嗎?”
原來,伯爵為了支持英軍出征,下令徵收重稅,百姓為此怨聲載道。
兩人因此爭執起來,伯爵語氣堅決地說:“我是朝廷重臣,理應為國家分憂。”
葛黛瓦針鋒相對:“您從他們身上榨取的已經夠多了,這次就放過他們吧。”
伯爵氣急敗壞地說:“放過他們可以,除非您赤身裸體地騎馬在城中大街上轉一圈,我就宣佈減稅。”
第二天清晨,葛黛瓦夫人果然脫去睡袍,一絲不掛地騎上馬,離開官邸。
伯爵想上前制止,卻不敢開口,只好也騎著馬,跟在她後面。
葛黛瓦光著身子在街上轉了一大圈,但所有百姓卻都像事先商量好了一樣,始終關閉門窗,大街小巷都空無一人,沒有一個人趁機窺探她的隱私。
伯爵問:“您怎麼知道他們值得您這樣冒險相助?”
葛黛瓦笑了笑:“如果真心想幫助他人,就不該去想他人將怎樣回報自己,難道不是嗎?”
伯爵點了點頭,立即宣佈全城減稅。
多年後,英國著名畫家約翰•柯里爾聽說了此事,隨即畫下油畫《馬背上的葛黛瓦夫人》。
柯里爾說:“真正的高貴,是心中明白自己該去救濟他人時,就勇敢去做,而不會過多考慮他人是否會因此而感恩,更不會因他人的回應而改變初衷。”
時至今日,這幅名畫仍被考文垂市博物館珍藏,這幅油畫和葛黛瓦夫人,已經成為考文垂市的“名片”。
真善不需要裝裱,退掉浮華也會一直美麗。
只有真心為別人,才會獲得別人的真心。

Today, I went to the beachfront with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!
