sharing *6*

上帝把兩群羊放在草原上,一群在南,一群在北。
上帝還給羊群找了兩種天敵,一種是獅子,一種是狼。

上帝對羊群說:「如果你們要狼,就給一隻,任它隨意咬你們。 如果你們要獅子,就給兩頭,你們可以在兩頭獅子中任選一頭 ,還可以隨時更換。」

這道題的問題就是:如果你也在羊群中,你是選狼還是選獅子? 很容易做出選擇吧? 好吧,記住你的選擇,接著往下看。

南邊那群羊想,獅子比狼兇猛得多, 還是要狼吧。於是,它們就要了一隻狼。 北邊那群羊想,獅子雖然比狼兇猛得多,但我們有選擇權 ,還是要獅子吧。 於是,它們就要了兩頭獅子。

那隻狼進了南邊的羊群後,就開始吃羊。 狼身體小,食量也小,一隻羊夠它吃幾天了。 這樣羊群幾天才被追殺一次。

北邊那群羊挑選了一頭獅子,另一頭則留在上帝那裡。 這頭獅子進入羊群後, 也開始吃羊。獅子不但比狼兇猛,而且食量驚人,每天都要吃一隻羊。 這樣羊群就天天都要被追殺,驚恐萬狀。 羊群趕緊請上帝換一頭獅子。 不料,上帝保管的那頭獅子一直沒有吃東西,正飢餓難耐 ,它撲進羊群,比前面那頭獅子咬得更瘋狂。 羊群一天到晚只是逃命,連草都快吃不成了。

南邊的羊群慶幸自己選對了天敵,又嘲笑北邊的羊群沒有眼光。 北邊的羊群非常後悔,向上帝大倒 苦水,要求更換天敵,改要一隻狼。

上帝說:「天敵一旦確定,就不能更改,必須世代相隨,你們唯一的權利是在兩頭獅子中選擇。」 北邊的羊群只好把兩頭獅子不斷更換。 可兩頭獅子同樣凶殘,換哪一頭都比南邊的羊群悲慘得多, 它們索性不換了, 讓一頭獅子吃得膘肥體壯,另一頭獅子則餓得精瘦。 眼看那頭瘦獅子快要餓死了,羊群才請上帝換一頭。

這頭瘦獅子經過長時間的飢餓後,慢慢悟出了一個道理: 自己雖然兇猛異常,一百隻羊都不是對手,可是自己的命運是操縱在羊 群手裡的。 羊群隨時可以把自己送回上帝那裡,讓自己飽受飢餓的煎熬 ,甚至有可能餓死。 想通這個道理後,瘦獅子就對羊群特別客氣,只吃死羊和病羊 ,凡是健康的羊它都不吃了。 羊群喜出望外,有幾隻小羊提議乾脆固定要瘦獅子,不要那頭肥獅子了 。

一隻老公羊提醒說:「瘦獅子是怕我們送它回上帝那裡挨餓,才對我們這麼好。 萬一肥獅子餓死了,我們沒有了選擇的餘地,瘦獅子很快就會恢復凶殘 的本性。」 羊群覺得老羊說得有理,為了不讓另一頭獅子餓死 ,它們趕緊把它換回來。

原先膘肥體壯的那頭獅子,已經餓得只剩下皮包骨頭了 ,並且也懂得了自己的命運是操縱在羊群手裡的道理。 為了能在草原上待久一點,它竟百般討好起羊群來。而那頭被送交給上 帝的獅子,則難過得流下了眼淚。 北邊的羊群在經歷了重重磨難後,終於過上了自由自在的生活。

南邊的那群羊的處境卻越來越悲慘了,那隻狼因為沒有競爭對手 ,羊群又無法更換它, 它就胡作非為,每天都要咬死幾十隻羊,這隻狼早已不吃羊肉了 ,它只喝羊心裡的血。 它還不准羊叫,哪只叫就立刻咬死哪只。南邊的羊群只能在心中哀歎:「早知道這樣,還不如要兩頭獅子。」

這是一道非常簡單的選擇題,領悟到了嗎? 握有決定權的才有生機,否則只有任人宰割 的份了。

Penang Hill

Finally.. after 4..5..6..7.. dunno how many weeks.. workload started to reduce ABIT.. so, I can start my lepak plan~ ;p

The very first place I went is Penang hill~.. well, went N times in these years, but still havent been there in 2008 ma~ ;p;p

Since Jim is visiting Penang, I have a good reason to go up hill again.. This is the 1st time i went there in evening/nite.. and JUST got to know that can have steamboat up there!!!

The tram of 630pm had been postponed to 645pm.. so we got no choice but wait... and found another thing is the last tram service from upper station is extended to 1115pm.. for Saturday only.. cool~, another good place for ppl to paktor.. :))

The ticket costs RM4/head for round trip.. and there is a break at the middle of the hill.. and washrooms too.. few months didnt go already got these changes, not bad..

It is very relaxing to go at this time (~7pm) because the tram is not that pack and hot.. but, if you wanna try the steamboat, please reach the hotel before 8pm.. because we arrived at 8pm and the kitchen just said it's finish.. well, i believed is because the boss wanna go back home edi, lazy prepare for us.. ishh.. so, we just had simple dinner there: tomyam fried rice, curry kapitan, and fried broccoli.. the curry kapitan taste good~ ^^

Then we just blow blow wind, see see scenery.. then back edi.. haha.. That's Pennag hill, nuthing much can do.. Next time! next time i will go up earlier and bring wine + ice.. so that after steamboat can sit there enjoy the scenery until 11pm~ ;p;p

Teacher:"class, can you tell me what do you see on this paper please?"
Student:"a black dot."
Teacher:"is it? I see a piece of white paper with a small dot."

- human tend to see the -ve side and missed the +ve values -

Well, I also saw the black dot only. That's me~! ;p

Lion's Theory: No matter how white the paper is, it is still stained. You can turn it to grey, light grey, bla bla.. but still not white.

p/s: "human", but i am lion :))
