感動(dòng)心靈的英文哲理故事 1
A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealers showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.
As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young mans name embossed in gold. Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" He then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.
Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make the arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things.
When he arrived at his fathers house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his fathers important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a tag with the dealers name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words... "PAID IN FULL".
How many times do we miss blessings because they are not packaged as we expected? Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.
Sometimes we dont realize the good fortune we have or we could have because we expect "the packaging" to be different. What may appear as bad fortune may in fact be the door that is just waiting to be opened.
感動(dòng)心靈的英文哲理故事 2
There was once a wise old woman who lived back in the hills. All the children used to come back and ask her questions. She always gave the right answers.
There was a naughty little boy among the children. One day he caught a tiny bird and held it in his cupped hands. Then he gathered his friends around. He said, "Lets trick the old woman. Ill ask her what Im holding in my hands. Of course, shell answer that I have a bird. Then I will ask her if the bird is living or dead. If she says the bird is dead, Ill open my hands and let the bird fly away. If she says the bird is alive, Ill quickly crush it and show her the dead bird. Either way, shell be wrong."
The children agreed that this was a clever plan. Up the hill they went to the old womans hut.
"Granny, we have a question for you," they all shouted.
"Whats in my hands?" asked the little boy.
"Well, it must be a bird," replied the old woman.
"But is it living or dead?" demanded the excited boy.
The old woman thought for a moment and then replied, "It is as you will, my child."

This is the 50th anniversary of the day I crossed paths with Pablo Picasso. It came about in a strange way. I had written a column showing how absurd some of my mail had become.
One letter was from Philadelphia. It was written by a Temple University student named Harvey Brodsky. Harvey said he was in love with a girl named Gloria Segall, and he hoped to marry her someday. She claimed to be the greatest living fan of Picasso. The couple went to a Picasso exhibit and, to impress her, Harvey told Gloria that he could probably get the artists autograph.
Harveys letter continued, "Since that incident, Gloria and I have stopped seeing each other. I did a stupid thing and she threw me out and told me she never wanted to see me again.
"Im writing to you because Im not giving up on Gloria. Could you get Picassos autograph for me? If you could, I have a feeling Gloria and I could get back together. The futures of two young people depend on it. I know she is miserable without me and I without her. Everything depends on you."
At the end of the letter, he said, "I, Harvey Brodsky, do solemnly swear that any item received by me from Art Buchwald (namely, Pablo Picassos autograph) will never be sold or given to anyone except Miss Gloria Segall."
I printed the letter in my column to show how ridiculous my mail was. When it appeared, David Duncan, a photographer, was with Picasso in Cannes and Duncan translated it for Picasso.
Picasso was very moved, and he took out his crayons and drew a beautiful color sketch for Gloria Segall and signed it.
Duncan called and told me the good news.
I said, "The heck with Gloria Segall, what about me?"
David explained this to Picasso and in crayons he drew a picture of the two of us together, holding a glass of wine, and wrote on the top, "Pour Art Buchwald."
By this time, the Associated Press had picked up the story and followed through on the delivery of the picture to Gloria Segall. When it arrived special delivery in Philadelphia, Gloria took one look and said, "Harvey and I will always be good friends."
If youre wondering how the story ends, Harvey married somebody else, and so did Gloria. The Picasso hangs in Glorias living room.
It was a story that caught the imagination of people all over the world. I received lots of letters after the column was published. My favorite came from an art dealer in New York, who wrote:
"I can find you as many unhappy couples in New York City as you can get Picasso sketches. Two girls I know are on the verge of suicide if they dont hear from Picasso, and I know several couples in Greenwich Village who are in the initial stages of divorce. Please wire me how many you need. We both stand to make a fortune."
Another letter, from Bud Grossman in London, said, "My wife threatens to leave me unless I can get her Khrushchevs autograph. She would like it signed on a Russian sable coat."

Once a scientist conducted an experiment. He placed a butterfly in a room filled with various plants. He then took a small breeze of air from outside and blew it towards the butterfly. The butterfly, in turn, fluttered its wings and caused a slight disturbance in the air. This disturbance was carried forward and eventually affected a series of chain reactions. As a result, a tornado was formed miles away from the room.
The scientist realized that even the smallest of actions can have unexpected and significant consequences. The butterflys fluttering wings, seemingly insignificant, caused a huge tornado. This is known as the Butterfly Effect.
The moral of this story is that our actions, no matter how small, can have profound impacts on the world. Therefore, we should always be mindful of our actions and strive to make positive contributions.

An old man, a skilled fisherman, embarked on a journey to catch a big fish. Days passed, and he encountered numerous difficulties, but he persevered. Finally, he caught a huge fish, but it was so powerful that it dragged him out to sea for days. The old man fought valiantly, enduring hunger and fatigue.
After a long battle, he managed to kill the fish. But his triumph was short-lived as sharks came and devoured his catch. When he returned to shore, all that was left was the skeleton of the fish.
Despite his apparent failure, the old man was at peace. He had faced the challenges of the sea, tested his limits, and emerged victorious in spirit. The story teaches us that true success lies not in the material gains but in the courage, perseverance, and dignity we display in the face of adversity.

Once there was a giving tree that loved a little boy. The boy would come to the tree and ask for things, and the tree would gladly give them to him - its apples, its branches to swing on, and even its trunk to build a house. As the boy grew older, his demands became greater, and the tree sacrificed more and more to fulfill them.
Eventually, the boy became an old man, and the tree had nothing left to give. The man sat down beneath its stump and the tree was happy just to have him there. The tree realized that the greatest joy it had ever known was in giving to the boy.
This story teaches us the true meaning of love and sacrifice. It reminds us that the happiest moments in life often come from giving to others, even if it means sacrificing our own wants and needs. Love is not just about receiving, but also about giving without expecting anything in return.

Once upon a time, there was an old man who lived in a small village. He owned a horse, which was his pride and joy. One day, the horse ran away, and the villagers came to console the old man. "Such a bad thing has happened," they said. "Your horse is gone, and you have lost your most prized possession."
The old man smiled and said, "Perhaps."
A few days later, the horse returned with a herd of wild horses. The villagers gathered around, marveling at the sight. "Such a good thing has happened," they exclaimed. "You have gained so much!"
The old man nodded and said, "Perhaps."
Then, the old mans son tried to tame one of the wild horses and fell, breaking his leg. The villagers shook their heads in sorrow. "Such a bad thing has happened," they lamented. "Your son is injured, and you have lost his help."
The old man shrugged and said, "Perhaps."
After a while, the war broke out, and the villagers were drafted to fight. Most of them did not return. But the old mans son, with his broken leg, was spared. The villagers gathered around the old mans house, praising his fortune. "Such a good thing has happened," they said. "Your son is alive and safe."
The old man smiled and said, "Perhaps."
And so it went, with the old man always saying "Perhaps" to both good and bad events. He taught the villagers a valuable lesson: that life is full of unexpected turns, and its our choice how we view and respond to them. The power of choice lies not in controlling what happens, but in how we react to it.

A small child was playing with a butterfly net in a garden. As he chased a butterfly, he stumbled and fell, tears welling up in his eyes. An elderly neighbor saw him and walked over to console him.
"Why do things always go wrong for me?" the child asked, sniffling.
The neighbor smiled and sat beside him. "Do you know about the butterfly effect?" she asked.
The child shook his head.
"Its the idea that small actions can have huge consequences," the neighbor explained. "Just like when a butterfly flaps its wings in one place, it can cause a hurricane somewhere else."
The childs eyes widened. "Really?"
"Yes," the neighbor continued. "And just like that butterfly, your actions, even the smallest ones, can have a big impact. You might think that stumbling and falling is a bad thing, but maybe it will lead to something good. Maybe youll meet a new friend who helps you when youre sad, or youll learn a lesson that makes you stronger."
The child considered this for a moment and then smiled. "I never thought of it like that," he said.
And from that day on, the child began to see the world in a new way, understanding that every action, no matter how small, had the potential to create something beautiful.

A wealthy merchant once traveled to a far-off land to seek wisdom. After years of searching, he found an old sage living in a simple hut.
"I have traveled the world seeking wisdom," the merchant said. "Can you teach me its secrets?"
The sage smiled and gestured to a simple bowl of water sitting on the table. "Look into this bowl," he said.
The merchant did as he was told and saw his own reflection staring back at him.
"What do you see?" the sage asked.
"Myself," the merchant replied.
"And what is the value of what you see?" the sage inquired.
The merchant pondered this for a moment. "I am a wealthy man, with much to offer the world," he said.
The sage shook his head. "The value of what you see is not in your wealth or possessions. It is in the simplicity and clarity of your own being. True wisdom lies not in seeking more, but in understanding and appreciating what we already have."
The merchant was silent for a long time, reflecting on the sages words. Finally, he bowed his head in gratitude and returned to his life with a newfound understanding of the value of simplicity and self-awareness.
感動(dòng)心靈的英文哲理故事 10
A small boy was spending his summer vacation with his grandparents on their ranch in the mountains.
He was playing around in the house one day when he came across an old wooden box that was filled with what looked like cut-up strips of colored paper.
Curious, he asked his grandmother about the box and she told him that it contained the papers from the answers she had given over the years to a questionnaire sent out by a popular magazine. She would cut up the answers and paste them on the strips of paper.
The boy asked, "What was the question?"
And she replied, "The same one every time, son: What is the most important thing in your life?"
The boy went back to the box, shuffled through the strips of paper and read every single answer. His grandmother had answered differently each time.
Once she said, "My husband."
Another time, "My children."
Then, "My grandchildren."
"My health."
"My work."
The boy looked up at his grandmother and asked, "Was there ever a time when you said something about feeling really happy?"
"No, my child," she replied. "There have been times when I have said, I was really happy when… but never just I am happy."
"Why?" the boy asked.
"Because, my child," his grandmother said, "happiness is something you feel right now, in this moment. If you wait for some future time to be happy, youll always be unhappy. The most important thing is to be happy right now, in this moment."
The boy thought about it for a minute and then went back to playing.
That evening, the grandmother heard the sound of something crashing in the kitchen followed by the boys voice, "Grandma! Come quickly!"
When she arrived in the kitchen, she found her grandson holding a jar filled with her homemade cookies. He had tried to take a cookie out but the jar had tipped over and broken, spilling cookies all over the floor.
The boy was sobbing and muttering, "Im sorry, Grandma. Im so sorry."
She hugged him tightly and said, "Its okay, my child. Its just a jar of cookies. Dont cry. Lets clean it up together and Ill make some more."
The boy looked up at her with tear-stained eyes and said, "But Grandma, it was my fault. I shouldnt have tried to take a cookie without asking you first."
She smiled and said, "See, thats what I mean about happiness. You could have been upset about spilling the cookies, but instead, youre feeling sorry for what you did. Thats okay too. The important thing is to learn from your mistakes and move on. And right now, in this moment, we can be happy together while we clean up the mess."
And so they did, laughing and talking as they picked up the broken pieces of the jar and swept up the spilled cookies.
The lesson the boy learned that day would stay with him for the rest of his life: happiness is not something that happens in the future; it is something that is felt right now, in each and every moment.
感動(dòng)心靈的英文哲理故事 11
Once there was a man named Mr. Smith who was known for his negative attitude. He always saw the glass as half empty, and his pessimism often rubbed people the wrong way.
One day, Mr. Smiths boss decided to give him a special assignment. He was to spend a week with the most optimistic person in the company, Mr. Johnson, and learn from him.
At first, Mr. Smith was skeptical and thought it was a waste of time. But he agreed to give it a try.
The week began, and Mr. Smith found himself constantly annoyed by Mr. Johnsons cheerful demeanor and positive outlook. No matter what happened, Mr. Johnson always found a silver lining and remained upbeat.
One day, while they were working together on a project, they encountered a major obstacle that seemed impossible to overcome. Mr. Smiths first reaction was to give up and complain about how unfair it was.
But Mr. Johnson took a different approach. He calmly analyzed the situation, came up with a plan to overcome the obstacle, and encouraged Mr. Smith to join him in executing it.
As they worked together, Mr. Smith couldnt help but notice that Mr. Johnsons positive attitude was actually contagious. It made him feel more hopeful and motivated to solve the problem.
By the end of the week, they had successfully overcome the obstacle and completed the project. Mr. Smith was amazed at how much progress they had made, and he realized that it was largely due to Mr. Johnsons positive influence.
As the week drew to a close, Mr. Smiths boss asked him how the experience had been. Mr. Smith hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Its been...different. I never thought that being positive could make such a difference. Mr. Johnson has taught me that theres always a way to see the good in any situation."
His boss smiled and said, "Thats exactly what I hoped you would learn. Positivity is a powerful tool that can help us overcome obstacles and achieve our goals. Im glad youve seen its value now."
From that day on, Mr. Smith made a conscious effort to adopt a more positive attitude. He found that it not only made him happier, but also made him more effective at work and in his relationships with others.
The power of positivity is often overlooked, but it can transform our lives in remarkable ways. By choosing to focus on the good, we can create a brighter future for ourselves and for those around us.
