A few short stories, awakening the dreamer

Story 1: Choice

A farmer rescued his wife from the flood and his child was drowned. After the event, people talked about it.

Some said that he did the right thing, because the child can regenerate one, but the wife can't die and rise again; some say that he did something wrong, because the wife can marry another one, but the child can't die and rise again. I listened to people's arguments and felt puzzled and difficult: If you can only save one person, should you save your wife or save your child?

So I went to visit the peasant and asked him what he thought at the time. He replied: "I didn't think about anything. The flood came, my wife was with me. I grabbed her and went to the nearby hillside. When I returned, the child had been washed away by the flood."

On the way home, I pondered the words of the peasants and said to myself: This is the case with so many choices about life.

Story 2: The Heart of Love

This is a true story that happened in the UK. There was a lonely old man who had no children and no children, and he was weak and sick. He decided to move to a nursing home. The old man announced the sale of his beautiful home. The buyer heard the news and swarmed. The residential floor price was £80,000, but people quickly fired it to £100,000.

Money is still rising. The old man is deeply confused and full of melancholy. Yes, if it is not a healthy situation, he will not sell the house that he spent most of his life with.

A plain-clothed youth came to the eyes of the old man, bent down and whispered, "Sir, I want to buy this house, but I only have 10,000 pounds. However, if you sell the house to me, I promise to let You still live here, drink tea with me, read newspapers, walk, and be happy every day - believe me, I will take care of you with the whole heart!"

The old man smiled and sold the house to him for 10,000 pounds. To complete your dreams, you don't have to be ruthlessly killed and defrauded. Sometimes, as long as you have a lover's heart, you can.

Story 3: Doctor

One doctor was assigned to a research institute and became the highest-educated person. One day he went to the small pond behind the unit to go fishing, just as the deputy director was on his left and right, and was also fishing. He just nodded slightly, these two undergraduates, have a good chat?

In a short while, the captain put down the fishing rod, stretched and stretched, and walked from the water to the toilet on the opposite side. The doctor’s eyes are falling all over: the water is floating? No, this is a pond.

When the director came back from the toilet, he also drifted back from the water. What happened? The doctoral student is not good to ask, he is a doctoral student!

After a while, the deputy director also stood up, took a few steps, and drifted across the water on the toilet. This next doctor is almost fainted: No, it is a place where the masters of rivers and lakes are concentrated?

The doctoral student is also in a hurry. There are walls on both sides of the pond. If you have to go to the opposite toilet for a ten-minute road, and you are too far back to the unit, what should you do?

Doctoral students are not willing to ask the two directors. After a long time, they also got up and went to the water: I don't believe that the undergraduates can pass the water. My doctoral students can't live.

Just listening to the bang, the doctoral student was planted in the water. The two directors pulled him out and asked him why he was going to the water. He asked, "Why can you go over?"

The two looks at each other and smiled: "There are two rows of wooden pegs in the pond. The rain has risen just below the water in these two days. We all know the position of the stakes, so we can step on the piles. Why don't you ask? "?"

Education represents the past, and only learning can represent the future. Those who respect their experience can take fewer detours. A good team should also be a learning team.

Story four: giving

An old carpenter is ready to retire. He tells the boss that he wants to leave the construction industry and go home to enjoy his family and his wife and children. The boss was reluctant to leave his good worker and asked if he could help build another house. The old carpenter said yes.

But everyone can see later that his heart is no longer at work, he uses soft materials, and is out of rough work.

When the house was built, the boss handed the key to him. "This is your house," he said, "the gift I gave you."

He was so shocked and stunned that he was ashamed. If he knew that he was building a house for himself, how could he do this? Now he has to live in a shoddy house!

We are not like this. We carelessly "build" our own lives, not positive actions, but passive coping, all things refused to keep improving, and we can't do our best at the crucial moment. When we are shocked by our situation, we have already been deeply trapped in the "house" we built.

Think of you as the carpenter, think about your house, every day you knock in a nail, add a board, or erect a wall, build it with your wisdom! Your life is the only creation of your life, Can not smooth the reconstruction, even if only one day can live, that day will live beautiful and noble, the nameplate on the wall reads: "Life is created by yourself."

Story 5: Window

A wife has been complaining for many years that the wife is very lazy. "The woman's clothes are never cleaned. Look, the clothes she is hanging out in the yard are always spotted. I really don't know how she even washes clothes. Wash it like that."

Until one day, a friend who had a clear view of the autumn came to her house and found that the wife who was not the opposite was not clean. The careful friend took a rag and erased the gray stain on the wife's window and said, "Look, is this not clean?"

It turned out that the window of my home was dirty.

Story 6: Remind yourself

An old lady sat on the side of the road and looked at a high wall not far away. She always felt that it would collapse immediately. When someone saw the wall go, she kindly reminded: "The wall is going to fall, far. Let's go."

The person being reminded looked at her inexplicably and walked over the wall roots in a big way - the wall did not fall. The old lady is very angry: "Why don't you listen to me?"

Someone came along, and the old lady advised again. Three days passed and many people walked by the wall and did not encounter danger.

On the fourth day, the old lady felt a little strange and disappointed. She walked under the wall and watched it carefully. However, at this time, the wall collapsed and the old lady was buried in the dust and stone.

Reminding others is often easy and lucid, but it is difficult to remind yourself at all times. Therefore, many dangers come from themselves, and the sorrow of the old lady is born.

Story 7: Apples by the river

An old monk, he gathered around a group of devout disciples. On this day, his disciples went to Nanshan to take a boat to return.

The disciples hurried to the river not far from the mountain, and everyone was dumbfounded. I saw the flood rushing down the mountain, and I would like to cross the river to catch firewood anyway.

The disciples were somewhat dejected when they returned without success. Only a small monk is intimately opposed to the master. When the master asked why, the young monk pulled out an apple from his arms and handed it to the master. He couldn’t cross the river, couldn’t beat the firewood, and saw an apple tree by the river. I just picked up the only apple on the tree. Later, the little monk became the master of the master.

There are endless roads in the world, and there are rivers that cannot pass. It is also a kind of wisdom to turn around and return to the river. But the real wisdom is to do one thing by the river: fly the kite of thought and pick up an "apple." Throughout the past and present, those who have embraced such a belief in life have finally achieved the breakthrough and transcendence of life.

Story eight: simple truth

Once upon a time, two hungry people got the gift of an elder: a fishing rod and a huge fish. Among them, one person asked for a squid and the other asked for a fishing rod, so they parted ways.

The person who got the fish used the dry wood to set up the bonfire and boiled the fish. He gorged himself and did not taste the meat of the fresh fish. In a flash, even the fish with the soup was eaten by him. Soon, he starved to death. Beside the empty fishing rod.

The other person continued to starve with the fishing rod and walked hard to the beach step by step. But when he had seen the blue ocean not far away, the last strength of his body was finished, and he could only squint with endless regrets.

There are two other hungry people who also receive a fish gill and a trout from the elders. It’s just that they didn’t go their separate ways, but they agreed to go together to find the sea.

They only cook one fish at a time. They went to the beach after a long trek. From then on, the two started fishing for a living. After a few years, they built a house and had their own families and children. With the fishing boat built by myself, I lived a happy and healthy life.

A person who only cares about the immediate interests will eventually have a short-lived joy; one has a high goal, but he also has to face a real life. Only by combining ideals with reality can it be a successful person. Sometimes, a simple truth is enough to give a meaningful life revelation.
