There are a wealth of seafood and delicacies in my palace and you can eat whatever you want without anyone stopping you. Moreover, you can rest assured that nothing needs to be done by you.” Then, the man settled down in the palace.

At the beginning, the man felt very happy at the rotation of eating and sleeping. But gradually, he felt a bit lonely and void. So he went to the owner and groaned, “It is very tedious to live by just eating and sleeping every day. Now I show no interest in this kind of life any more. Could you help me find a job?”

After another several months, the man could not bear the present life and went to the owner again, “I really could not stand this sort of life any more. If you do not offer me a job, I would prefer to go to the hell instead of living here.”

The owner of the palace smiled contemptuously, “Do you think it is Heaven here? It is actually the hell!”

How's the feeling?
What's the ture happiness and satisfaction?
作者: 玄懿    时间: 2011-8-18 17:50

We all like this man.
When we are tired, we want to live at leisure.
When we are at leisure, we will feel tedious and want to have something to do.

    The reason is very simple.
Time keeps going and never waits for anyone.
We also keep going,growing up,growing old.We could not stop the pace which we really want to stop.
So no where is the place we can have rest forever,we just have a rest and then continuing.
It's the life.

A man died and was on his way to another world, either the Heaven or the hell. He saw an extremely magnificent palace half way and the owner of the palace asked him to stay and live in the palace .
一个人死了,他正在去另一个世界的路上,可能是天堂也许是地狱。半途中他看见一个极其辉煌的宫殿,而且宫殿的主人还邀请他留在宫殿里生活。
The man said, “I have been working arduously during my life and now I just want to eat and sleep without any work.”
那人说:“我已经终身费力地工作,现在我只想要不工作地吃喝睡。”
The owner of the palace said, “If so, there is nowhere else better than here for you. There are a wealth of seafood and delicacies in my palace and you can eat whatever you want without anyone stopping you. Moreover, you can rest assured that nothing needs to be done by you.” Then, the man settled down in the palace.
宫殿主说:“要是这样没什么比这儿更好的地方了。这里有大量丰富的海鲜和佳肴,你可以随便吃什么,没人会阻止你的。而且你还可以无忧地睡觉,什么事你都不用做。”就这样,那人在宫殿里定居下来了。
At the beginning, the man felt very happy at the rotation of eating and sleeping. But gradually, he felt a bit lonely and void. So he went to the owner and groaned, “It is very tedious to live by just eating and sleeping every day. Now I show no interest in this kind of life any more. Could you help me find a job?”
起先,那人觉得非常高兴在循环的吃喝睡中。但是总的来说,他感到一点孤单和空虚。所以他找到主人抱怨说:“每天就只吃和睡地生活太单调乏味了。现在我对这种生活没兴趣了。你可以帮我找一份工作吗?”
The owner replied, “Sorry, there is no job here at all.”
主人说“抱歉,这里根本没有工作。”
After another several months, the man could not bear the present life and went to the owner again, “I really could not stand this sort of life any more. If you do not offer me a job, I would prefer to go to the hell instead of living here.”
又过了几月,那人再也不能忍受现在的生活,他又去找主人了。“我真地不能再忍受这种生活了。要是你不给我一份工作,我将情愿去地狱也不在这里。”
The owner of the palace smiled contemptuously, “Do you think it is Heaven here? It is actually the hell!”
宫殿的主人傲慢的笑着说:"你认为这里是天堂吗?这确实就是地狱了!”

A man lives without doing anything ---it really like living at the hell.醉生梦死的贪婪的生活已不是生活了。

    So right.
Before passing away, we should leave something that can prove we have lived in this world once.

一个人死后在去往另一个世界的路上,要么去天堂,要么去地狱。在半路上他看见一座非常雄伟的宫殿,宫殿的主人让他留下住在这里。

作者: ellenhao123    时间: 2011-10-11 17:38

people outside want to come in while people inside want to go out---this is human nature.
And nothing is impossible for anyone. There is great potential in you!
And there is no one who is born to be lazy. Just balance your work and rest, your life and work, and you will have what you  wanted.
