當我們沉迷于追求物質(zhì)、金錢或感官享受的時候,靈魂常常會被遺忘在一旁。但是只有純潔的靈魂才是生命中最大的財富,最好的伙伴,最忠實的愛人。

Actually, we all have 4 wives in our lives.
The 4th wife is our body. No matter how much time and effort we lavish in making it look good, it'll leave us when we die.
Our 3rd wife is our possessions, status and wealth. When we die, they all go to others.
The 2nd wife is our family and friends. No matter how close they have been there for us when we're alive, the furthest they can stay by us is up to the grave.
The 1st wife is in fact our soul, often neglected in our pursuit of material, wealth and sensual pleasure.
Guess what? It is actually the only thing that follows us wherever we go. Perhaps it is a good idea to cultivate and strengthen it now rather than to wait until we're on our deathbed to lament.
其實,我們每個人的一生都有四位愛人相伴。
小老婆代表我們的軀體。無論我們花費多少的時間和精力想去裝扮她,我們死后它終會棄我們而去。
第三位老婆代表財產(chǎn)、地位與金錢。一旦我們?nèi)鍪治魅?,它終究會轉(zhuǎn)向他人。
二老婆則代表了我們的家人與朋友。我們活著的時候,無論他們與我們多么親近,他們最多也只能到墓前送我們最后一程。
至于大老婆,她則是我們的靈魂。當我們沉迷于追求物質(zhì)、金錢或感官享受的時候,她常常會被遺忘在一旁。
結(jié)果呢?她才是唯一與我們永遠相伴的。也許從現(xiàn)在開始,我們就應該悉心照顧好她,而不是等到臨終之際才悔恨不已。
