☆ 要原諒愚蠢人，但必須記取教訓。
如果是因為自己「相信」了一個愚蠢人而致自己身體受傷，
自己當然要負上大部份的責任。
例如選擇坐上一個不懂得謹慎駕駛的朋友的汽車，
一旦發生交通意外，就好像賭博輸了錢一樣，
即使生命尚存，又有保險賠償，
然而其他可大可小的身體和精神上的損傷，
只能夠怪自己閱人不精或遇人不淑。
應該原諒愚蠢人，因為暫時來說「人蠢冇藥醫」，
但千萬不要讓他們做他們智力以外的事。
尤其要慎防那些熱情及自告奮勇的愚蠢人，
及那些自以為有小聰明的愚蠢人，
千萬不要拿自己或別人的生命去做賭注！
切記：愛一個愚蠢人不等於愛他的腦袋！
簡單地說：
可以愛一個正直、愚蠢的駕駛者，
但千萬不要坐對方駕駛的汽車。
從「愛自己」的角度來看，可以原諒愚蠢人，
但千萬不可以原諒自己「相信」愚蠢人，
更加不可以原諒自己的判斷能力。
一個正直的愚蠢人犯了錯之後，會向你道歉，
並且會告訴你
1. I am sorry.
2. It is my fault.
3. What can I do to make it right？
我們知道「道歉無補於事，而且道歉可真可假」，
但由於有第三點，我們當然只可以原諒他，
但是否需要考慮他的能力，是否需要保護他的自尊心，
是否不可以說：「可不可以學聰明一點？」
To err is human.
That’s why we should always forgive a fool,
but we must never forget the lesson.
We should forgive ourselves for allowing
a fool to hurt us the first time,
but we should never forgive ourselves
for not learning the lesson and
let the fool or any other person
to hurt us in the same way again.
Remember that the act of forgiveness
takes place in our own mind.
It may or may not affect the mind
of the other person.
When we choose to forgive a fool,
we do not take away their power to continue
hurting us or other people again and again.
Forgiveness without judgement is a virtue of
the brave, gambler I mean,
because forgiveness is a bet
for the fool’s capacity to be transformed.
( Jason Ling )
一個正直的愚蠢人犯了錯之後，
一個心術不正的人會要脅他去做懷事。
基督徒會告訴你要原諒人七十個七次。
勵志的人士會喜上眉梢地鼓勵有小聰明的愚蠢人：
Every life has intrinsic value.
Every person has valuable lessons to teach others.
Your life has purpose.
Your dreams count. Your voice matters.
You were born to make an impact.
If they don’t respect, appreciate and value you,
then they don’t deserve you.
Tell yourself:
You can be who you really are.
You are worthy of great things.
You are important. You are strong. You are lovable.
Things will get better and the best is yet to come.
Everything will work out fine.
勵志人士可以運用的金句多得很：
Never underestimate your own strength.
You were born for a purpose and
are blessed with the power to achieve it.
( Leon Brown )
Your “I can” is more important than your IQ.
( Robin Sharma )
When people undermine your dreams,
predict your doom, or criticize you,
remember, they’re telling you their story, not yours.
( Cynthia Ocelli )
但你一定要告訴自己：
A fool knows well that
not everything is meant to be understood.
The intrinsic value of a fool’s life
is to teach us wisdom at a high cost.
A strong person don’t put others down,
but he must be able to judge who is a fool.
He will never settle for less than he deserves
and let a fool drown him in deep water.
Forgiveness is the attribute of love and wisdom.
Don’t leave out the latter！
Love is divine. Wisdom is also divine.
( Jason Ling )
I don’t have to wait for an apology.
I am a good and wise enough person
to forgive you,
but not stupid enough to trust you again,
because the way I look at you will never
be the same as it used to be.
( Jason Ling )
