有一个人在拥挤的车流中开着车缓缓前进,在等红灯的时候,一个衣衫褴褛的小男孩敲着车窗问他要不要买花。他刚刚递出去五块钱绿灯就亮了,后面的人便猛按喇叭催着。因此他粗暴地对问他要买什么颜色花的男孩说:“什么颜色都可以,你只要快一点就行了!”那男孩十分礼貌地说:“谢谢您,先生!”
There was a man driving slowly in the crowded traffic. While waiting for the red light, a ragged little boy knocked on the window and asked him if he wanted to buy flowers. As soon as he handed out five yuan, the green light came on, and the people behind him honked their horns. So he said rudely to the boy who asked him what color he wanted to buy: "any color is OK, you just need to hurry up!" The boy said very politely, "thank you, sir!"
在开了一小段路后,他有些良心不安,他粗暴无礼的态度,却得到对方如此有礼的回应。于是他把车停在路边,回头走向孩子表示歉意,并且给了他五块钱,要他自己买一束花送给喜欢的人。这个孩子笑了笑并道谢接受了。
After a short drive, he had some conscience problems. His rudeness was met with such a polite response. So he stopped at the side of the road, turned back to the child to apologize, and gave him five yuan to buy a bunch of flowers for the people he liked. The child smiled and accepted.
当他回去发动车子时,发现车子出了故障,动不了了。在一阵忙乱之后,他决定步行找拖车帮忙。正在思索时,一辆拖车竟然已经迎面驶来,他大为惊讶。司机笑着对他说:“有一个小孩给了我十块钱,要我开过来帮你,还写了一张纸条。”他打开一看,上面写着:“这代表一束花。”
When he went back to start the car, he found that there was something wrong with it and it couldn't move. After a flurry, he decided to walk to the trailer for help. As he was thinking, he was surprised that a trailer had come face to face. The driver smiled and said to him, "a child gave me ten yuan, asked me to drive over to help you, and wrote a note." He opened it and read, "this represents a bunch of flowers."
立即表达心中的想法并勇于认错的人才是真正的智者。你的善意可能立即得到回报,而内心的释怀却是最好的回报。
The real wise are those who express their thoughts immediately and dare to admit their mistakes. Your kindness may be rewarded immediately, but your inner relief is the best reward.
