ran to the bus but missed it。 I hailed a cab but it broke down; found a farm; bought a horse but it dropped dead; ran 10 miles; and now I’m here。 ”
The Officer was very skeptical about this explanation but at least he was here so he let the soldier go。 Moments later; eight more soldiers came up to the officer panting; he asked them why they were late。
“Sorry; sir! I had a date and it ran a little late; I ran to the bus but missed it; I hailed a cab but it broke down; found a farm; bought a horse but it dropped dead; ran 10 miles; and now I’m here。”
The Officer eyed them; feeling very skeptical but since he let the first guy go; he let them go; too。 A ninth soldier; jogged up to the officer; panting heavily。
“Sorry; sir! I had a date and it ran a little late。 I ran to the bus but missed it。 I hailed a cab but。。。”
“Let me guess;” the officer interrupted。 “it broke down。”
“No。” said the soldier; “there were so many dead horses on the road; it took forever to get around them。”

聰明人生 第六章(1)
與上帝為伍
一個農民買了一塊破舊、荒廢的農場,他計劃著把農場改造成一座欣欣向榮的園林。農場目前的狀況是雜草遍佈,房屋破舊不堪,四周的籬笆也東倒西歪。
在他著手改造的第一天,一個城裡的傳教士停下來祝福他:“願上帝與你一起實現你的夢想!”
過了幾個月,那個傳教士又一次來拜訪農民。駐足觀看,這裡發生了天翻地覆的變化:房屋重新被整修過,條件也優於從前,成群的牛羊正在歡快地吃著青草,地裡的莊稼也成排地生長著。“太不可思議了,”傳教士驚呼道,“看啊,上帝和你一起實現了你的夢想!”
“是的,教士,”那個農民說道:“可你別忘了,當初這個農場只由上帝一人管理時是個什麼樣子!”
