【亞歷山大大帝的最後願望】

在他的床上,亞歷山大吩咐他的陸軍將軍,告訴他們三個他的臨終願望:

1. 最好的醫生來抬扶他的棺材...

2. 他積累的財富(金錢,金子,寶石)要沿著遊行散佈到公墓...

3. 他的兩手要張開掛在棺材外面讓所有人看到!

他的一位將軍對這些不尋常的要求感到驚訝,請亞歷山大解釋。


這是亞歷山大大帝的解釋:

1. 我想要最好的醫生抬扶我的棺材,以證明面對死亡,即使世界上最好的醫生也沒有力量醫治... 

2. 我希望道路被我的寶藏所覆蓋,以便每個人都看到地上獲得的物質財富,只能留在世上...

3. 我希望我的兩手在風中搖擺,讓人們明白,我們空手而來,也空手而去,而最珍貴的寶藏,就是「時間」。

我們不會把任何物質財富帶進我們的墳墓。 「時間」是我們最珍貴的寶藏,因為它是「有限」的。我們可以生產更多的財富,但我們不能生產更多的時間。 

當我們給某人我們的時間,實際上是把我們生命的一部分給了他,我們永遠不能收回。

不要忘記與你的家人和朋友分享這個故事。


在你一生虛空的年日,就是神賜你在日光之下虛空的年日,當同你所愛的妻,快活度日,因為那是你生前在日光之下勞碌的事上所得的分。凡你手所當作的事要盡力去作;因為在你所必去的陰間沒有工作,沒有謀算,沒有知識,也沒有智慧。(傳道書 9:9-10)


The Last Wishes of Alexander The Great

On his death bed, Alexander summoned his army generals and told them his three ultimate wishes:

1. The best doctors should carry his coffin...
2. The wealth he has accumulated (money, gold, precious stones) should be scattered along the procession to the cemetery...
3. His hands should be let loose, so they hang outside the coffin for all to see!!

One of his generals who was surprised by these unusual requests asked Alexander to explain.

Here is what Alexander the Great had to say:

1. "I want the best doctors to carry my coffin to demonstrate that in the face of death, even the best doctors in the world have no power to heal .."

2. "I want the road to be covered with my treasure so that everybody sees that material wealth acquired on earth, will stay on earth..."

3. I want my hands to swing in the wind, so that people understand that we come to this world empty handed and we leave this world empty handed after the most precious treasure of all is exhausted, and that is: TIME.

We do not take to our grave any material wealth. TIME is our most precious treasure because it is LIMITED. We can produce more wealth, but we cannot produce more TIME.

When we give someone our time, we actually give a portion of our life that we will never take back.

Don't forget to share this story with your family and friends.

【Bible】Ecc 9:9-10
Enjoy life with the wife whom you love, all the days of your vain life which he has given you under the sun, because that is your portion in life and in your toil at which you toil under the sun.Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work or thought or knowledge or wisdom in Sheol, to which you are going.
