There must be really smart people steering this big ship. Without them, United States must have been sunk already.
It is a country heading for nowhere. To seek happiness etc. are not objectives.
Happiness cannot be sought. Happiness will arrive only when you have done something successful.
The point is, what are you going to do?
Steering the big ship like the United States is just like this. You can only steer onwards. And then you see there's a big rock, and being a smart person you know how to avoid obstacles and turn around.
Yes, they must be really smart to know how to turn around. They would turn around very quickly. They would turn around very skillfully, playing all kinds of tricks. They can steer smoothly without noice.
Yet the problem remains.
You cannot be always turning around. You can never get what you really wanted.
May be you need a goal, though it sound silly. You wise people never talk like that.
But still. you got to know the answer.
Where are you going?
You might not have enough time.
Sooner or later, you will pass the big ship to another one who might or might not be as wise as you are.
Maybe you need to leave them a map.
And you're sure to notice that the map is in god's hand, not in your hand.
What will you say to your children?
What will you give them to observe?
The only thing you can leave for them is your wisdom. You know how to turn around. And you are honest. You do not know where to go.
Your smart children will learn everything from your wisdom. This is the only thing you can be sure about.
I admire your wisdom. No one could have been doing better than you.
We do not know the final objectives of the Heaven. We can only have a general idea about them that we are growing and going towards a good place and survive all difficulties and will not be ruined.......to be ruined is an old Western concept before Christ.
And the shadow is always in your mind. Its the reason for your choice. You are always expecting the worse.
Chinese people have never been thinking like that.
