情况不同
一只小猪、一只绵羊和一头乳牛,被关在同一个畜栏里。有一次,牧人捉住小猪,牠大声号叫,猛烈地抗拒。绵羊和乳牛讨厌牠的号叫,便说:「他常常捉我们,我们并不大呼小叫。小猪听了回答道:「捉你们和捉我完全是两回事,他捉你们,只是要你们的毛和乳汁,但是捉住我,却是要我的命呢!」
(立场不同、所处环境不同的人,很难了解对方的感受;因此对别人的失意、挫折、伤痛,不宜幸灾乐祸,而应要有关怀、了解的心情。 )
Different Situations
There are one pig, one sheep and one cow lived in the save place. One day, the shepherd caught the pig and tries to pull him out. Pig was crying, sheep and cow were annoyed by his noise, said: “What is the matter? He often catches us and pull us out, we never cry!”
The pig said: “That’s completely different! He caught you for your wool and your milk only. He caught me for my life!”
(People often cannot understand others in different situations. When you see others frustrated, hurt, painful, please try to care them not laughing at them. )
2、 靠自己
小蜗牛问妈妈:为什么我们从生下来,就要背负这个又硬又重的壳呢?
妈妈:因为我们的身体没有骨骼的支撑,只能爬,又爬不快。所以要这个壳的保护!
小蜗牛:毛虫姊姊没有骨头,也爬不快,为什么她却不用背这个又硬又重的壳呢?
妈妈:因为毛虫姊姊能变成蝴蝶,天空会保护她啊。
小蜗牛:可是蚯蚓弟弟也没骨头爬不快,也不会变成蝴蝶他什么不背这个又硬又重的壳呢?
妈妈:因为蚯蚓弟弟会钻土, 大地会保护他啊。
小蜗牛哭了起来:我们好可怜,天空不保护,大地也不保护。
蜗牛妈妈安慰他:「所以我们有壳啊!」我们不靠天,也不靠地,我们靠自己。
Depend on ourselves
Baby snail asked:” Mom, why we have to carry this heavy hard big shell since we born?”
Snail Mom: Because we don’t have any bone to support us, so we could only climb but very very slow. Therefore this shell is here to protect us.
Baby snail: but why caterpillar has no bone either, she doesn’t need to carry this shell?
Snail mom: because caterpillar could become butterfly one day, the sky will protect her.
Baby snail: then earthworm has no bone nor became butterfly one day, why he doesn’t need to carry this shell?
Snail Mom: because earthworm could drill, so the earth would protect him.
Baby snail cries: we are such poor creature! There is no sky or earth to protect us.
Snail mom said: Honey, that’s why we have the shell! We don’t depend on the sky or the earth, we depend on ourselves!
3、 鲨鱼与鱼
曾有人做过实验,将一只最凶猛的鲨鱼和一群热带鱼放在同一个池子,然后用强化玻璃隔开,最初,鲨鱼每天不断冲撞那块看不到的玻璃,耐何这只是徒劳,它始终不能过到对面去,而实验人员每天都有放一些鲫鱼在池子里,所以鲨鱼也没缺少猎物,只是它仍想到对面去,想尝试那美丽的滋味,每天仍是不断的冲撞那块玻璃,它试了每个角落,每次都是用尽全力,但每次也总是弄的伤痕累累,有好几次都浑身破裂出血,持续了好一些日子,每当玻璃一出现裂痕,实验人员马上加上一块更厚的玻璃。后来,鲨鱼不再冲撞那块玻璃了,对那些斑斓的热带鱼也不再在意,好像他们只是墙上会动的壁画,它开始等着每天固定会出现的鲫鱼,然后用他敏捷的本能进行狩猎,好像回到海中不可一世的凶狠霸气,但这一切只不过是假像罢了,实验到了最后的阶段,实验人员将玻璃取走,但鲨鱼却没有反应,每天仍是在固定的区域游着它不但对那些热带鱼视若无睹,甚至于当那些鲫鱼逃到那边去,他就立刻放弃追逐,说什么也不愿再过去,实验结束了,实 验人员讥笑它是海里最懦弱的鱼。
可是失恋过的人都知道为什么,它怕痛。
Shark and fish
Someone did the experiment before. He put a vicious shark with some fish together in the pond, but using special glass to separate them. At the beginning the shark attacked the transparent glass everyday, he tried to eat those fish but he could not. Every time staff change a new glass when the glass had a small crack, it became harder and stronger material, the shark often attacked till bleed.
Eventually one day, the shark stopped attacking the glass, so the staff removed the glass, but the shark still stayed in his side. So the experiment was off, staff laughed that shark was the most coward creature in the ocean.
But people who hurt in the relationship before all understood why-because the shark doesn’t want to get hurt again.
4、 神迹
法国一个偏僻的小镇,据传有一个特别灵验的水泉,常会出现神迹,可以医治各种疾病。有一天,一个拄着拐杖,少了一条腿的退伍军人,一跛一跛的走过镇上的马路,旁边的镇民带着同情的回吻说:「可怜的家伙,难道他要向上帝祈求再有一条腿吗??」这一句话被退伍的军人听到了,他转过身对他们说:「我不是要向上帝祈求有一条新的腿,而是要祈求祂帮助我,叫我没有一条腿后,也知道如何过日子。」
(试想:学习为所失去的感恩,也接纳失去的事实,不管人生的得与失,总是要让自已的生命充满了亮丽与光彩,不再为过去掉泪,努力的活出自己的生命。)
Miracle
A small town in France, it said there was miracle spring water could heal many diseases. One day, a retired soldier with one leg only arrived. People said: “poor guy, does he want to beg the God give him another leg again?”
The soldier heard it and answered: “No! I want to beg the God to show me how to move on my life without one leg.”
(Try to accept the fact what you lost, and try to appreciate what you lost. Whatever lost or gaining in our lives, we should try to light up the fire for our future, don’t cry for the pass and try to find out the meaning of the lives.)
5、 钓竿
有个老人在河边钓鱼,一个小孩走过去看他钓鱼,老人技巧纯熟,所以没多久就钓上了满篓的鱼,老人见小孩很可爱,要把整篓的鱼送给他,小孩摇摇头,老人惊异的问道:「你为何不要?」小孩回答:「我想要你手中的钓竿。」老人问:「你要钓竿做什么?」小孩说:「这篓鱼没多久就吃完了,要是我有钓竿,我就可以自己钓,一辈子也吃不完。」
(我想你一定会说:好聪明的小孩。错了,他如果只要钓竿,那他一条鱼也吃不到。因为,他不懂钓鱼的技巧,光有鱼竿是没用的,因为钓鱼重要的不在<钓竿>,而在<钓技>有太多人认为自己拥有了人生道上的钓竿,再也无惧于路上的风雨,如此,难免会跌倒于泥泞地上。就如小孩看老人,以为只要有钓竿就有吃不完的鱼,像职员看老板,以为只要坐在办公室,就有滚进的财源=
Fish Rod
An old man was fishing by the river, a kid saw it and came next to him. Old man likes the kid so wants to give the fish to him. The kid said no. old man surprised: “why not?” the kid said: “I want to have your fish rod.”
“what you are going to do with that fish rod?” old man asked.
The kid said: “the fish would be eaten very shortly. If I have the fish rod, I could fish for myself, then I could always have fish.”
(You might think he is a clever kid, but he isn’t . if he only asked for the fish rod, he cannot even have one fish at all. Why? Because he doesn’t know how to fish yet, so only acquire the fish rod is useless. The trick for fishing is the fishing TECHNIQUE, not the fish rod. many people thought they have the fish rod so they have everything. As the kid thought as long as having the fish rod then he could always have fish, employees thought as long as they sit on the director’s office then make them always have money.
