Your Halo Is Too Tight!
(Originally in Chinese)
A pious believer was very serious in his spiritual cultivation. He went to church every Sunday and never missed a ceremony or a baptism. One day, he went to see the doctor. The doctor checked his pulse and gave him a thorough medical checkup, zut failed to diagnose anything."You don't seem to be ill," the doctor said.
"If I were not ill, then why would I be here consulting you?" he asked."Do you indulge in unhealthy pleasures?" the doctor asked "No! I have three meals a day, at regular hours and in a fixed quantity; I don't take an extra grain.""Then have you been drinking too much? You'd better stop drinking!""Of course not! I don't even drink a drop of alcohol; I drink only plain water.""Do you often work late? Do you know that working late is bad for your health?""Never! I turn in at half-past nine every night, and I get up at six in the morning. This is my daily routine, without the slightest exception."The doctor began to get confused. "Do you smoke or take drugs?""That is impossible! I get sick just seeing others smoke,let alone smoking tobacco myself!""Then do you indulge in carnal pleasure?" the doctor asked again.
"How can that be? I am still a bachelor, and I virtually do not know what a woman is." The doctor could not think of anything else, so he gave it a last try. "Do you have a headache?""Yes, you are right! I have a severe headache, and no medicine can relieve my pain.""But of course. The halo around your head is too tight!" the doctor said.
光圈太緊了
有一個宗教的信徒,他非常認(rèn)真修行,每個星期天一定去教堂,任何的法會、洗禮會他都一定參加。有一次他去看醫(yī)生,醫(yī)生幫他把脈、檢查身體每個地方,都找不到任何問題,然后醫(yī)生就問他:‘你好像沒病啊?’信徒說:‘沒病的話,我來找你做什么呢?’醫(yī)生又問:‘那你是不是吃喝玩樂太過度了?’他說:‘不會啊,我每天三餐定時定量,多一粒米也不吃?!t(yī)生又問:‘那你是不是喝酒太多了?酒不要喝啦!’他說:‘哪里!我一滴也不喝,我只喝白開水而已?!缓筢t(yī)生再問:‘那你是不是常常熬夜?熬夜對身體不好,你知道嗎?’他說:‘哪里!我晚上九點(diǎn)半就睡覺了,早上六點(diǎn)就起床,每天這個樣子,一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)都不差?!?BR> 醫(yī)生已經(jīng)開始混淆了,說:‘那你是不是有抽煙、吸嗎啡?’信徒說:‘唉!那些根本不用談,我看到人家抽煙已經(jīng)討厭了,何況自己抽!’醫(yī)生繼續(xù)問:‘那是不是縱欲過度???’他說:‘哪里!我還是單身漢,根本不知道女人是什么!’醫(yī)生沒辦法了,最后又問:‘那你是不是會頭痛?’那個病人說:‘對、對、對!就是頭痛,痛得厲害,吃什么藥都不好。’醫(yī)生說:‘就是嘛!你頭上的光圈太緊了!’
