十一月七日 November 7, 2011

許下的諾言 ***

人喜歡驗證甚麽
別人許下的諾言
人很少驗證甚麼
自己許下的諾言
每個人都有責任
履行自己的諾言
如果沒法去執行
也應有個好交代

Promises, promises ***

What do people like to pay attention to? They like to check whether other people keep their promises or not, but they seldom notice whether they, themselves, have kept their own promises or not. We all should know that we have the responsibility to carry out our promises. Even if we cannot deliver it, we should at least recognize it and let other people know it too.


惹禍上身 ***

貪婪是災禍先兆
素食變美食珍饈
麻衣變綾羅綢緞
茅屋變高台樓閣
單車變豪華房車
為了要滿足慾望
很容易會做錯事
而弄到惹禍上身

Greed is a disaster omen ***

Greed is a disaster omen. Such greed includes exchanging a vegetarian diet for high priced delicacies, simple garments to silks and satins, modest dwellings for mansions, and bicycles for luxurious cars. In order to satisfy such desires, people may make the wrong decision and do stupid things resulting hurting themselves.
