"Come in," God said to me, "so, you would like to interview Me?"
“进来”，上帝 对我说，“你想采访我?”
"If you have the time," I said.
“是的，如果您有时间的話。” 我说。
He smiled through His beard and said: "My time is called eternity and
is enough to do everything; what questions do you have in mind to ask
me?"
上帝 微笑了，笑容通过他的胡须绽开，说：“我时间的名字叫永恒，足足可以
做任何事情。你心里有什么问题想问我?”
"None that are new to you. What's the one thing that surprises you
most about mankind?"
“对您来说是没有新鲜的提问的。人类让您感到最惊奇的事情是什么呢?”
He answered: "That they get bored of being children, are in a rush to
grow up, and then long to be children again. That they lose their
health to make money and then lose their money to restore their
health. That by thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the
present, such that they live neither for the present nor the future.
That they live as if they will never die, and they die as if they
never had never lived..."
上帝 回答道：“人类在做孩子的时候感到无聊，盼望着长大，长大后又向往着
返回童年；他们浪费自己的健康去赢得个人的财富，然后又浪费自己的财富去重
建自身的健康；他们焦虑地憧憬未来，忘记了眼前的生活，活得既不是为了现在
也不是为了将来；他们活得似乎永远不会死，他们死得也好像从来没活过…”
His hands took mine and we were silent. After a long period, I said,
"May I ask you another question?"
上帝 握着我的手，我们一阵沉默。过了好长一段时间，我说：“我可以再问您
一个问题吗?”
He replied with a smile.
上帝用微笑回答了我。
"As a Father, what would you ask your children to do for the new
year?"
“作为天父，在新的一年里您会要求您的子民做什么?”
