我喜歡奧巴馬. 他看起來是個有智慧, 也很自律的. 也許會是個好總統. 但是結局如何呢? 借這一席之地, 同大家分享一段聖經里的話.
傳道書4:13-16
貧窮而有智慧的少年人, 勝過年老不肯鈉諫的愚昧王. 這人是從監牢里出來作王; 在他國中, 生來原是貧窮的. 我見日光之下一切行動的活人, 都隨從那第二位, 就是起來代替老王的少年人. 他所治理的眾人, 就是他的百姓, 多的無數; 在他後來的人, 尚且不喜悅他. 這真是虛空, 也是捕風.
Eccelesastes 4:13-16
Better a poor but wise youth than an old but foolish king who no longer knows how to take warning. The youth may have come from prison to the kingship, or he may have been born in poverty within his kingdom. I saw that all who lived and walked under the sun followed the youth, the king's successor. There was no end to all the people who were before them. But those who came later were not pleased with the successor. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.)
年老固執, 不肯鈉諫的愚昧王好象說的剛剛卸任的小布希. 貧窮而有智慧的少年人, 象不象我們的新總統奧巴馬. 人的本性總是要崇拜英雄. 現在追隨他的人多如牛毛. 他管理國家也可能很出色. 但是人有一天還是會厭倦他, 覺得就那麼回事. 轉而去追隨下一個"英雄".
