It's a long one and it is not a joke. It took Indigo a couple of days to finish it, and she found the "cheese". Did you find it?
从前,有两个饥饿的人得到了一位长者的恩赐:一根鱼竿和一篓鲜活硕大的鱼。其中,一个人要了一篓鱼,另一个人要了一根鱼竿,于是他们分道扬镳了。得到鱼的人原地就用干柴搭起篝火煮起了鱼,他狼吞虎咽,还没有品出鲜鱼的肉香,转瞬间,连鱼带汤就被他吃了个精光,不久,他便饿死在空空的鱼篓旁。另一个人则提着鱼竿继续忍饥挨饿,一步步艰难地向海边走去,可当他已经看到不远处那片蔚蓝色的海洋时,他浑身的最后一点力气也使完了,他也只能眼巴巴地带着无尽的遗憾撒手人间。
又有两个饥饿的人,他们同样得到了长者恩赐的一根鱼竿和一篓鱼。只是他们并没有各奔东西,而是商定共同去找寻大海,他俩每次只煮一条鱼,他们经过遥远的跋涉,来到了海边,从此,两人开始了捕鱼为生的日子,几年后,他们盖起了房子,有了各自的家庭、子女,有了自己建造的渔船,过上了幸福安康的生活。
一个人只顾眼前的利益,得到的终将是短暂的欢愉;一个人目标高远,但也要面对现实的生活。只有把理想和现实有机结合起来,才有可能成为一个成功之人。有时候,一个简单的道理,却足以给人意味深长的生命启示。
Once upon a time, there were two extremely famished people who were bestowed with a fishing rod and a bucketful of fresh fish from an old man. Among those, one person wanted one bucket of fish, the other wanted to fishing rod,and so, they parted ways. The person who got the fish started a fire and started cooking the fish, he devoured it ravenously, and didn't even register the taste of fresh cooked fish, in a flash even the fish soup had been consumed by him, shortly after, he died of hunger right next to the fish basket. The other dude carried his fishing rod and suppressed his growing hunger, and step by step started toward the ocean, but once he glimpsed the sparkling blue ocean water, he had used up all the energy in his body, he could only regretfully let go of his connection to the living world. (in otherwords, he died.)
There was another pair of starving people,they also received an old man's fishing rod and a bucket of fish, but they didn't go seperate paths, they both decided to go to the ocean together. Both of them only cooked two fish each time, it took them a lot of effort to walk long distances, but once they got to the ocean's edge, thereafter, they both lived on fishing, a few years later,t hey made a house, and each started their own family, had sons and daughters, and made their own home-crafted fishing boat,a nd lived very happy and healthy lives. Each person paid attention to their own profits, in the end, they lived happily ever after.
One person had a very high goal, but also had to face reality. If you put imagination and reality together, that's when you can become an accomplished person. Sometimes,a simple philosophy, can reveal a deep meaning to the word: cheese.
