ummm, I never really understand parables or those stories that attach a meaning or lesson to it. Maybe coz when I was a baby, my parents didnt tell me many good stories, except Snow White, Cinderella...these more like make u wish for a VERY handsome prince riding on a donkey rescuing you. OK, I was affected by these stories for years.....now, of coz....no la...or less la.
I have made into a habit that I would read something everyday, I would love to go back to nonstop reading my books but I got no time & energy lately. So I read blogs and few pages of Bible and/or few pages of books, on top of researches that I have to read through online.
I find that I just dont get parables or stories. I prefer straighforward, heartstabbing, mindblowing messages - to click me, yea, so I become lazy to think.....but I just dont want to get its meaning, you know what I mean. Somehow they all sound so multi-dimensional, it could be either this or that. And the message is too vague....hey yo, teachers, if you are supposed to spread a message to the world, say it clearly and ideally in all possible languages. LOL
OK, maybe afterall, I am not that romantic.
That is so friggin truth... sometimes things are written so vaguely, and so open to different interpretations it's frustrating to read. A bloody cryptologist could not decipher its meaning~ But I guess if you write subjectively or ambiguously, it becomes infallible.
