袋鼠与笼子
(Kangaroos and the Cage)
One day the staff members of a zoo called a meeting to discuss the problem--how to deal with the kangaroos that were found out of the cage. They came to the conclusion that the cage was placed too low and decided to raise it from one to two meters high. But the next day the kangaroos were still at large and they again raised the cage to three meters.
有一天，动物园的管理员们发现袋鼠从笼子里跑出来了， 于是开会讨论，一致认为是笼子的高度过低，所以他们决定将笼子的高度由原来的1米加高到2米。结果第二天他们发现，袋鼠还是跑到外面来，所以他们又决定再将高度加高到3米。
Quite beyond their expectation the next morning they saw the kangaroos still free to go about. They were alarmed and determined to go to all the length by raising the cage to the height of ten meters.
没想到隔天居然又看到袋鼠全跑到外面，于是管理 员们大为紧张，决定一不做二不休，将笼子的高度加高到10米。
Later a giraffe, while chatting with some kangaroos, asked them, “Do you think they will go on raising your cage?”
一天，长颈鹿和几只袋鼠在闲聊，“你们看，这些人 会不会再继续加高你们的笼子?”长颈鹿问。
“Hard to say,” said a kangaroo, “if they continue forgetting to fasten the cage door.”
“很难说。”袋鼠说，“如果他们再继续忘记关门的话!”

心田上的百合花

在一个偏僻遥远的山谷里，有一个高达数千尺的断崖，不知道什么时候，断崖边上长出了一株小小的百合，百合刚刚诞生的时候，长得和杂草一模一样，但是，它心里知道自己并不是一株野草，它的内心深处，有一个纯洁的念头：“我是一株百合，不是一株野草，惟一能证明我是百合的方法，就是开出美丽的花朵。”有了这个念头，百合努力地吸收水分和阳光，深深地扎根，直直地挺着胸膛，终于在一个春天的清晨，百合的顶部结出了第一个花苞。

百合心里很高兴，附近的杂草却很不屑，它们在私底下嘲笑百合：“这家伙明明是一株草，偏偏说自己是一株花，还真以为自己是一株花，我看它顶上结的不是花苞，而是头脑长瘤了。”公开场合，它们则讥讽百合：“你不要做梦了，即使你真的会开花，在这荒郊野外，你的价值还不是跟我们一样?”

百合说：“我要开花，是因为我知道自己有荚丽的花；我要开花，是为了完成作为一株花的庄严使命；我要开花，是由于自己喜欢以花来证明自己的存在，不管有没有人欣赏，不管你们怎么看我，我都要开花!”

在野草的鄙夷下，野百合努力地释放内心的能量。有一天，它终于开放了，它那灵性的洁白和秀挺的风姿，成为断崖上最美丽的颜色。这个时候，野草再也不敢嘲笑它了。

百合花一朵一朵地盛开着，花朵上每天都有晶莹的水珠，野草们以为那是昨夜的露水，只有百合自己知道，那是极深沉的欢喜所结的泪滴。年年春天，野百合努力地开花、结籽。它的种子随着风，落在山谷、草原和悬崖边上，到处都开满洁白的野百合花。

几十午后，远在百里外的人，从城市，从乡村，千里迢迢赶来欣赏百合花。许多孩童跪下来，闻嗅百合花的芬芳；许多情侣互相拥抱，许下了“百年好合’’的誓言；无数的人看到这从未见过的荚，感动得落泪，触动内心那纯净温柔的一角。

不管别人怎么欣赏，满山的百合花都谨记着第一株百合的教导：“我们要全心全意默默地开花，以花来证明自己的存在。”

The Three Lazy Ones
A king had three sons whom he loved equally well， and he did not know which of them to appoint as king following his own death. When the time came for him to die he called them to his bed and said， “Dear children， I have thought of something that I will reveal to you. The one of you is the laziest shall become king after me.” The oldest one said， “Father， then the kingdom belongs to me， for I am so lazy that whenever I lie down to sleep， and a drop falls into my eyes， I will not even close them so that I can fall asleep.” The second one said， “Father， the kingdom belongs to me， for I am so lazy that when I am sitting by the fire warming myself， I would rather let my heels burn up than to pull my legs back. “The third one said， “Father， the kingdom is mine， for I am so lazy that if I were going to be hanged and already had the rope around my neck， and someone put into my hand a sharp knife with which to cut the rope， I would let myself be hanged rather than to lift my hand up to the rope.” When the father heard this he said， “You have taken it the farthest and shall be king.”
在一个遥远的地方，有一个国王，他有三个儿子，对每一个儿子他都非常喜爱，他不知道自己死后应该把王位传给他们三个中的哪一个。所以，当他快要死的时候，就把他们叫到身边说：“亲爱的孩子们，在我死后，你们三个中谁最懒，谁就继承我的王位。”老大说：“既然这样，这王位就是我的，因为我是最懒的儿子，当我躺下睡觉时，有任何东西落到我的眼睛里，我也懒得去擦掉，即使不能把眼睛闭上，我仍然会继续睡觉。”二儿子说：“爸爸，王位应该传给我，因为我是最懒的儿子。当我坐在火边取暖的时候，就是火燃到我的脚趾，我也懒得把腿收回来。”第三个儿子说：“爸爸，这王位是我的，因为我是你最懒的儿子，如果我就要被吊起来，绳子已经套在了脖子上，有人把一把锋利的小刀塞在我手里，要我切断绳子，我宁愿被吊起来也懒得抬起手把绳子割断。”父亲听到这里说道：“你是最合适的人选，你应该继承王位。”
