a black president

i am re-reading a book written by sidney sheldon in 1994 called: Nothing lasts forever.

it talks about a black female doctor who, when young, was abused and raped by her step father and went to her aunt for rescue, saying that she sees no future being a black person.   her aunt said to her:

"you can become anybody you want to be.  you may be black and poor, but so were some of our congresswomen, movie starts, scientist and sports legend.   one day we're going to have a black president.  you can be anything you want to be.  it's up to you."

incredible, isnt it: the book was written in 1994,  and in 2010  the US does have a black president, obama.  so, in this universe, anything is possible.

so, lets start thinking what we want to be, say, in one year, two years or five years time,  have goals and dreams, and chant nam myo ho renge kyo to have your dreams come true. cheers

我正在重讀一本由sidney sheldon 於 1994年寫的書,名為:沒有什麼是永遠。
它講述一個黑人女醫生,在她年輕的時候,被她的繼父虐待和強姦, 她到她的姑姑去救援。她說身為黑人是沒有任何前途可言. 她的姑姑說:
“你可以成為任何你想成為的人。您可能是黑人和貧困,但我們很多議員,影片大享,科學家和體育家等也都是黑人。說不定將來我們會有一個黑人總統呢。你可以成為任何你想成為的人。這完全取決於你。“
真是令人難以置信的,這本書是寫於 1994年,在2010年,美國確實有一位黑人總統,奧巴馬。所以,在這個宇宙中,任何事情都是可能的。
因此,讓我們開始思考我們想要的,也就是說,在一年,二年或五年後我們想達到的目標和夢想,並高唱南無妙法蓮華經去帮你的夢想成真。
