一只小螃蟹正横着爬,模样很怪趣。坐在石头旁的大螃蟹看见了,对他说:“我的小朋友,你究竟想到哪儿去?是去北方、南方、东方还是西方? ” “我只想到那池塘去。”小螃蟹喘着气说。 “那你向前直走啊,不是方便许多吗? ”大螃蟹说,“如果你再如此横着爬,恐怕无法到达那里呢! ” 小螃蟹说:“你的话不错,不过假如你能给我一个直走的样子看看,我一定会照着你的样子走。” 大螃蟹开始给他示范了,可是他怎么试也不行,正如刚才他所言,到底要到北方、南方、东方还是西方? 小螃蟹说道:“算啦!看样子我还是要横着爬呢,因为我们家族最大的螃蟹都无法向前直走! ” 对小螃蟹的不服,大螃蟹也就无话可说了。 故事哲理 责人还须先责己!不只父母教育子女如此,主管领导部属也是如此,能以实际行动作为榜样,胜过无数的训示和讲解 The Big Crab and the Little Crab A little crab was crawling sideways awkwardly. A big crab sitting by the rock asked, “My little friend, where are you heading? To the north, the south, the east, or the west?” “I just want to get to the pond,55 said the little crab breathlessly. “Then isn’t it easier for you to go straight?” said the big crab. “If you crawl sideways like this, I,m afraid you can't make it there!” The little crab said, “Well, will you be so kind as to show me how to walk straight?” The big crab started to demonstrate that but failed to do so no matter how hard he tried. The little crab said, “Forget it! It seems I’ll have to keep on crawling sideways, as the biggest member in our family can’t even make it straight!” Do not criticise someone for a weakness which you yourself have not overcome. |
