心靈的枯竭
惟雯說故事
什麼是貧窮,是物質的缺乏?還是心靈的枯竭?
一位富人想告訴她的兒子,什麼叫「貧窮」,就把他送到鄉下的窮親戚家。他兒子在鄉下住了三天三夜。
在回城裡的路上,他父親在車裡問他:「你覺得怎麼樣?」
兒子回答:「挺好」。
父親又問:「鄉下跟我們家有什麼區别嗎?」
兒子回答:
1.我們家有一條狗;他們家有四條。
2.我們家院子裡有個游泳池,裡面是處理過的水;他們家有個大池塘,水很清,裡面還游著各種各樣的魚。
3.我們的花園裡有電燈照明;他們的院子裡有星星和月亮照明。
4.我家的花園一直到圍牆邊;他們的院子一直延伸到天邊。
5.我們買飯吃;他們做飯吃。
6.我們聽CD;他們聽小鳥、青蛙和其它動物的音樂會,當他們在田裡幹活兒時,所有這些美妙的音樂都會伴随着他們。
7.我們使用微波爐做飯;可是他們的飯要好吃得多。
8.我們家四周都是圍牆;他們家任何時候門都是開著,迎接朋友們的到來。
9.我們與行動電話,電腦和電視緊密相連;他們與生活緊密相連,藍天,碧水,綠草,樹蔭和家庭。
父親對兒子的觀點很吃驚。
最後兒子總結說:「謝謝,爸爸!你讓我看到我們有多麼的貧窮!」
現代人,我們的心靈,一天比一天更貧窮。
因為我們已經感受不到上帝為我們所創造的大自然。
我們每天想的都是擁有、擁有、擁有、更多的擁有,
卻從來没有想到過人存在的意義與為人奉獻的歡愉。

The other day, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iphone and tested to see if it can survive a
40 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now
destroyed and she has 83 views. I know this is completely
off topic but I had to share it with someone!
