Life』s Mysteries


葉音均

         God works in mysterious ways?  Some people may doubt the fatalism in such a saying, laughing at the faith in the ultimate mystery of God and the belief in religion.  They think that destiny is created by themselves, and the future is in their own hands. But actually, something always happens by chance, when it happens to fall on you, you can never deny that God does work in mysterious ways.

A poor Thai labor who left his hometown and traveled to Taiwan to earn a living, won the first prize in the lottery and ended up with overnight wealth.  Many people work so hard all their life to make a fortune, but a poor Thai labor, who was looked down upon as a member of the lower class, became a millionaire just by a piece of paper and six numbers without any efforts. How can we explain his unbelievable great fortune?  Wasn't it God that created the mystery?

Examples like this are happening everywhere.  Life is just like a lottery, and the world is just unfair.  We are all ignorant about the future in the gamble, having the right to choose the numbers but can never see the results until we arrive at the end.

But it is these mysteries that lead life on.  Try to think, if every one of us has the ability of prophecy, knowing how to make decisions on every crossroad, then where can we find expectations and dreams?  So let fate take its own course; we still have a life time to solve the mysteries.
