Big Head

“All the kids make fun of me”the boy cried to his mother.“They say I have a big head”

“Don't listen to them.”his mother comforted him.“You have a beautiful head .Now stop crying and go to the store for ten pounds of potatoes”

“Where's the shopping bag?”

“I haven't got one,use your hat.”

大脑袋

“所有的孩子都拿我开玩笑，”小男孩哭着跟妈妈说：“他们说我长了一个大脑袋。”

“别听他们的，”他妈妈安慰说：“你的脑袋长得很漂亮。好了，别哭了，去商店买10磅土豆来。”

“购物袋在哪？”

“我没有购物袋，就用你的帽子吧。”

石头和沙子

两个朋友结伴穿越沙漠，旅途中二人突然吵了起来，其中一个掴了对方一记耳光。被打的人感到自己受了伤害，但什么也没有说，只是在沙地上写下了这样一句话：“今天我最好的朋友掴了我耳光。他们继续前行，看见到处绿洲，他们正打算在那里洗澡时，刚才被打的人不小心陷入了泥潭，开始深陷，他的朋友救了他。等他从几近淹死的边缘苏醒过来后，他在石头上刻下：“今天我最好的朋友救了我的命。”他的朋友问：“为什么我伤你之后，你在沙子上写字，现在却把字刻在石头上？” 他回答道：“当有人伤害了我们，我们应该把它写进沙里，宽恕的风会把仇恨抹去。而当有人为我们做了好事，我们应当把它刻在石头上，没有风可以将它抹去。”

Sand and Stone

The story goes that two friends were walking through the desert. During some point of the journey they had an argument, and one friend slapped the other one in the face.

The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand: "Today my best friend slapped me in the face."

They kept on walking until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath. The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him.

After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone: "Today my best friend saved my life."

The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, "After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now you write on a stone. Why?"

The other friend replied: "When someone hurts us we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can erase it away. But when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it."

LEARN TO WRITE YOUR HURTS IN THE SAND AND TO CARVE YOUR BENEFITS IN STONE.

They say it takes a minute to find a special person an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but an entire life to forget them.

Send this phrase to the people you'll never forget. It's a short message to let them know that you'll never forget them

Take the time to live.

The vixen and the lioness 雌狐与母狮 One morning when a vixen was taking her babies out of the lair, she saw a lioness and her cub. "Why do you have only one child, dear dame?" asked the vixen. "Look at my healthy and numerous children here, and imagine, if you are able, how a proud mother should feel." The lioness said calmly, "Yes, just look at that beautiful collection. What are they? Foxes! I've only one, but remember, that one is a lion." 雌狐与母狮 ●一天清早，雌狐狸带着她的孩子走出巢穴，看见了母狮子和她的孩子。 ●“为什么你只有一个孩子，夫人?”雌狐狸问，“看我这群健康的孩子，如果有能力，一个骄傲的妈妈应该多养一些孩子。” ●母狮平静地说：“是呀，看看这漂亮的一大群，他们都是狐狸！我只有一个，可他毕竟是一头狮子。” 寓意: 贵重的价值在于质，而不在于量。

故事三：

A man was going to the house of some rich person. As he went along the road, he saw a box of good apples at the side of the road. He said, "I do not want to eat those apples; for the rich man will give me much food; he will give me very nice food to eat." Then he took the apples and threw them away into the dust. He went on and came to a river. The river had become very big; so he could not go over it. He waited for some time; then he said, "I cannot go to the rich man's house today, for I cannot get over the river." He began to go home. He had eaten no food that day. He began to want food. He came to the apples, and he was glad to take them out of the dust and eat them. Do not throw good things away; you may be glad to have them at some other time.

【译文】 一个人正朝着一个富人的房子走去，当他沿着路走时，在路的一边他发现一箱好贫?饮，他说：“我不计划吃那些贫?饮，因为富人会给我更多的食物，他会给我特别好吃的东西。”接着他拿起贫?饮，一把扔到土里去。 他继续走，来到河边，河涨水了，因此，他到不了河对岸，他等了一会儿，接着他说：“今天我去不了富人家了，因为我不能度过河。” 他开始回家，那天他没有吃东西。他就开始去找吃的，他找到贫?饮，特别开心地把它们从尘土中翻出来吃了。 不要把好东西扔掉，换个时候你会觉得它们大有效果处。

钉子

有一个坏脾气的男孩,他父亲给了他一袋钉子.并且告诉他,每当他发脾气的时候就钉一个钉子在后院的围栏上.第一天,这个男孩钉下了37根钉子.慢慢地,每天钉下的钉子数量减少了,他发现控制自己的脾气要比钉下那些钉子容易.于是,有一天,这个男孩再也不会失去耐性,乱发脾气.他告诉父亲这件事情.父亲又说,现在开始每当他能控制自己脾气的时候,就拔出一根钉子.一天天过去了,最后男孩告诉他的父亲,他终于把所有钉子给拔出来了.

父亲握着他的手,来到后院说：“你做得很好,我的好孩子,但是看看那些围栏上的洞.这些围栏将永远不能恢复到从前的样子.你生气的时候说的话就像这些钉子一样留下疤痕.如果你拿刀子捅别人一刀,不管你说了多少次对不起,那个伤口将永远存在.话语的伤痛就像真实的伤痛一样令人无法承受.”

人与人之间常常因为一些无法释怀的僵持,而造成永远的伤害.如果我们都能从自己做起,开始宽容地看待他人,相信你一定能收到许多意想不到的结果.为别人开启一扇窗,也就是让自己看到更完整的天空.
