Between Outer and Inner: 2007年5月

2007/5/12

公元二零零七年，吾尝东渡重洋，以求西学东渐，图师夷长技以制夷。然则流年不利，实力所限，几欲折戟沉沙，费千金而无一斩获。多蒙佛祖眷顾，上天怜悯，于功亏一篑之时助吾一臂之力，挽狂澜于既倒。于此吾终信冥冥之中自有天意，万事万物皆有缘由。感恩于天，感恩于人，欲择日拜谢上苍之赐，还恩众神之佑，志之，切记。

鄙人愚鲁，才疏学浅，不堪大任。然心高气傲，张狂不羁，几欲倾吾所有，以尽平生抱负。孰不料耽于才疏而不自知，误于学浅而不自省，前惧狼后畏虎，败象初现于申请伊始。现志之，为后世之鉴，亦为吾之明镜，常自省之。

Offer

吾尝回顾此番申请，虽险象环生，乏善可陈，然于冥冥中亦感天意眷顾，慷慨予吾三地机缘，吾心慰之，吾意足已。

吾择校不慎，心实悔之。其授之钱财，却不与人谋事，可气可恨。弃之！戒之！
