去年春天，有一回我正在公园里散步。前边不远处一个妈妈正带着她三岁的女儿在玩，女儿手里牵着根线，线的另一头系着一个气球。 突然之间，一阵强风把气球从小女孩手里夺走了。我让自己稳住，准备接受尖叫声和哭声。 出乎意料，没有！当小女孩看着气球飞向天空时，她高兴地叫一声： “哇！” 虽然我当时没意识到什么，但那个小女孩却教会了我一些东西。 接下来的一天，我接到一个电话，打电话的人带来了一个意想不到的问题。 我想回答说：“噢，不，那我们怎么办?”但是我突然记起那个小女孩，于是我就说：“哇！这真有意思！我能帮你点什么呢?” 有一点是肯定的，那就是生活中总是会碰到一些意想不到的麻烦，使我们失去平衡。那是确定的。不能预料到的是我们的反应。我们可以选择气馁，也可以选择欢呼。 不管是什么样的环境，一声高兴的欢呼“哇” 总是能打败气馁的“噢,不”。 Wow Last spring I was walking in a park. A short distance ahead of me was a mom and her three-year-old daughter. The little girl was holding on to a string that was attached to a helium balloon. All of a sudden，a sharp gust of wind took the balloon from the little girl. I braced myself for some screaming and rrying. But，no! As the little girl turned to watch her balloon go skyward，she gleefully shouted out，“Wow!’’ 1 didn’t realize it at that moment, but that little girl taught me something. Later that day，I received a phone call from a person with news of an unexpected problem. I felt like responding with 44 Oh no, what should we do?” But remembering that little girl,I found myself saying，“Wo'v,that’s interesting! How can I help you?” One thing’s for sure life’s always going to keep us off balance with its unexpected problems. That's a given. What’s not preordained is our response. No matter what the situation, a fascinated “ Wow” will always beat a frustrated “Oh,no”. |
