The horse and the ass
A horse and an ass were traveling together. The horse was prancing along in its beautiful trappings， but the ass was carrying the heavy weight in its saddlebags.
“I wish I were you，” sighed the ass. “You have nothing to do， and wear such a beautiful harness.”
The next day there was a great battle. The horse was badly wounded in the final charge.
The ass passed and saw the dying horse. “I was wrong，” said the ass.“Safety is much more important than beautiful clothes.”
馬和驢
●馬和驢一起旅行，馬拉著輕便的車(chē)輕松地前行，而驢馱著很重的鞍囊走路。
●“我多希望我是你，”驢感嘆道，“你什么也不用做，卻佩帶這么漂亮的馬具�！�
●后來(lái)爆發(fā)了一場(chǎng)戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)，馬在最后的沖鋒中不幸身受重傷。
●驢從將要死去的馬身邊經(jīng)過(guò)�！拔义e(cuò)了，”驢說(shuō)，“安全比漂亮的衣服更重要�！�
寓意： 不要隨便羨慕別人，各人都有自己的生活，都有自己的幸福與不幸。
【篇二】
心靈的窗口
A little boy asked his mother： “Why are you crying？”
“Because I am a woman.” She told him.
“I don’t understand” he said.
His mum just hugged him and said： “And you never will.”
Later the little boy asked his father： “ Why does mother seem to cry for no reason？”
“All woman cry for no reason.” Was all his dad could say.
The little boy grow up and became a man， still wondering why women cry.
Finally he put in a call to God， when God got on the phone， he asked， “God， why do women cry so easily？”
God said： “ When I made the women， she had to be special. I made her shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world； yet， gentle enough to give comfort.
I gave her inner strength to endure childbirth， and the rejections many times comes from her children.
I gave her hardness that allows her to keep going when everyone else gives up， and take care of her family through sickness and fatigue without complains.
“I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all circumstances， even her children has hurt her very badly.
“I gave her strength to carry her husband through his faults and fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart.”
“I gave her the wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife， but sometimes tests her strength and resolve to stand beside him unfalteringly.”
“And finally， I gave her a tear to shed. That is her exclusively to use whenever it is needed.”
“You see the beauty of a women is not the clothes she wears， the figure she carries， or the way she combs her hair.”
“The beauty of a women must be seen in her eyes， because that is the doorway to her heart， the place where the love resides.”
