Stacie Zoumberakis AGDCAS President Ο γαρ εάν σπείρη άνθρωπος, τούτο και θερίσει (ότι σπείρεις θα θερίσεις) Greek Column by Voula Michail Ένας αυτοκράτορας στην Άπω Ανατολή, γερνούσε και καταλάβαινε ότι έφτασε η ώρα να διαλέξει το διάδοχό του. Επειδή δεν είχε ο ίδιος παιδιά, προσκάλεσε μια μέρα όλους τους νέους του βασιλείου του και τους είπε. Έφτασε η ώρα μου να παραιτηθώ και να διαλέξω τον επόμενο αυτοκράτορα. Έχω αποφασίσει να διαλέξω έναν από σας. Για το λόγο αυτό, Θα δώσω σήμερα στον καθένα σας έναν πολύ ειδικό σπόρο. Θέλω να τον φυτέψετε, να τον ποτίζετε και να ξαναρθείτε εδώ μετά ένα χρόνο από σήμερα με ό,τι έχει φυτρώσει απ αυτόν τον σπόρο. Εγώ τότε, θα κρίνω από τα φυτά που θα φέρετε, κι αυτός, του οποίου το φυτό θα διαλέξω, θα είναι ο επόμενος αυτοκράτορας! Ένα αγόρι που λεγόταν Λίνγκ, πήρε κι αυτός ένα σπόρο. Η μητέρα του τον βοήθησε να βρει μια γλάστρα και χώμα κι αυτός τον φύτεψε και τον πότισε προσεχτικά. Του άρεσε να τον παρακολουθεί να δει αν είχε φυτρώσει. Υστερα από τρεις εβδομάδες περίπου, μερικοί από τους άλλους νέους, άρχισαν να μιλούν για τους σπόρους τους και για τα φυτά που άρχισαν να μεγαλώνουν. Ο Λίνγκ συνέχισε να παρακολουθεί το σπόρο του, αλλά τίποτα δεν φύτρωσε ποτέ. Πέρασαν τρεις εβδομάδες, τέσσερις εβδομάδες, πέντε εβδομάδες κι ακόμα τίποτα. Τώρα όλοι οι άλλοι μιλούσαν με ενθουσιασμό για τα φυτά τους, ο Λίνγκ όμως δεν είχε φυτό και αισθανόταν αποτυχημένος. Πέρασαν έξι μήνες κι ακόμα δεν φύτρωσε τίποτα στη γλάστρα του Λίνγκ. Άρχισε να πιστεύει ότι είχε σκοτώσει το σπόρο του. Όλοι οι άλλοι είχαν δέντρα και ψηλά φυτά, αυτός όμως τίποτα. Όμως ο Λίνγκ δεν έλεγε τίποτα στους φίλους του. Απλά περίμενε να φυτρώσει ο σπόρος του. Τελικά πέρασε ένας χρόνος και όλοι οι νέοι του βασιλείου έφεραν τα φυτά τους στον αυτοκράτορα για επιθεώρηση. Ο Λίνγκ είπε στη μητέρα του ότι δεν θα πήγαινε μια άδεια γλάστρα, αλλά αυτή τον συμβούλεψε να πάει. Πήγε λοιπόν την άδεια γλάστρα του στο παλάτι. Όταν έφτασε εκεί ο Λίνγκ έμεινε κατάπληκτος από την ποικιλία των φυτών που καλλιέργησαν οι άλλοι νέοι. Ήταν όμορφα σε όλα τα σχήματα και μεγέθη. Ο Λίνγκ ακούμπησε την άδεια γλάστρα του στο πάτωμα και πολλοί από τους άλλους άρχισαν να τον περιγελούν. Μερικοί τον λυπήθηκαν και του είπαν. Δεν πειράζει, προσπάθησες για το καλύτερο. Όταν έφτασε ο αυτοκράτορας, εξέτασε την αίθουσα και χαιρέτησε τους νέους Τι μεγάλα φυτά, δέντρα και λουλούδια καλλιεργήσατε, είπε ο αυτοκράτορας. Σήμερα ένας από σας θα εκλεγεί ως ο επόμενος αυτοκράτορας!. Ξαφνικά διέκρινε το Λίνγκ με την άδεια του γλάστρα, στο πίσω μέρος της αίθουσας. Διέταξε αμέσως τους φρουρούς του να τον φέρουν μπροστά του. Όταν ο Λίνγκ ήλθε μπροστά ο αυτοκράτορας τον ρώτησε πώς λέγεται. Λέγομαι Λίνγκ απάντησε. Οι υπόλοιποι άρχισαν να γελούν και να τον κοροϊδεύουν. Ο αυτοκράτορας ζήτησε να ηρεμήσουν όλοι. Κοίταξε τον Λίνγκ και κατόπιν ανάγγειλε στο πλήθος, Ιδού ο νέος σας αυτοκράτορας! Το όνομά του είναι Λίνγκ!. Ο Λίνγκ δεν μπόρεσε να το πιστέψει. Δεν μπόρεσε ούτε το σπόρο του να κάνει να φυτρώσει! Πώς θα μπορούσε να γίνει ο νέος αυτοκράτορας; Τότε ο αυτοκράτορας είπε, Πριν ένα χρόνο, σαν σήμερα, έδωσα στον καθένα από σας εδώ ένα σπόρο. Σας είπα να τον πάρετε, να τον φυτέψετε, να τον ποτίσετε και να μου τον φέρετε πίσω σήμερα. Η αλήθεια είναι ότι έδωσα σε όλους σας βρασμένους σπόρους, που δεν θα φύτρωναν. Όλοι σας, εκτός από τον Λίνγκ, μου έχετε φέρει δέντρα, φυτά και λουλούδια. Όταν ανακαλύψατε ότι οι σπόροι δεν θα βλάσταιναν, τους αντικαταστήσατε με άλλους. Ο Λίνγκ ήταν ο μόνος που είχε το θάρρος και την εντιμότητα να μου φέρει μια γλάστρα που είχε μέσα το δικό μου σπόρο. Γι αυτό το λόγο ο Λινγκ είναι αυτός που θα γίνει ο νέος σας αυτοκράτορας!. Πρόσεχε, λοιπόν, τι σπέρνεις τώρα. Αυτό θα καθορίσει τι θα θερίσεις αύριο. Να είσαι βέβαιος ότι, κάποια μέρα, θα απολαύσεις τους καρπούς της εντιμότητας και της ακεραιότητάς σου, ή θα πληρώσεις για τις εγωιστικές επιλογές που κάποτε έσπειρες. Page 7
