被打的人感到自己受了傷害，但什麼也沒有說，只是在沙地上寫下了這樣一句話：“今天我最好的朋友摑了我耳光。”

They kept on walking until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath. The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him.

他們繼續前行，看見到處綠洲，他們正打算在那裏洗澡時，剛纔被打的人不小心陷入了泥潭，開始深陷，他的朋友救了他。

After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone: quot;Today my best friend saved my life.

等他從幾近淹死的邊緣甦醒過來後，他在石頭上刻下：“今天我最好的朋友救了我的命。”

The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, after I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now you write on a stone. Why?

他的朋友問：“爲什麼我傷你之後，你在沙子上寫字，現在卻把字刻在石頭上?”

The other friend replied: quot; when someone hurts us we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can erase it away. But when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it.

他回答道：“當有人傷害了我們，我們應該把它寫進沙裏，寬恕的風會把仇恨抹去。而當有人爲我們做了好事，我們應當把它刻在石頭上，沒有風可以將它抹去。”

John and Bobby joined a wholesale company together just after graduation from college the same year. Both worked very hard.

約翰和博比同年大學畢業後，被同一家批發公司錄用。他們二人工作都很努力。然而，幾年後，老闆提拔博比爲部門經理，而約翰還是一名普通員工。約翰再也無法忍受，衝動之下寫了一封辭職信，並抱怨老闆不會用人，不重用那些敬業的員工，只提升那些奉承他的人。

The boss knew that John worked very hard for the years. He thought a moment and said, "Thank you for your criticism, but I have a request. I hope you will do one more thing for our company before you leave. Perhaps you will change your decision and take back your resignation."

老闆知道這幾年約翰工作確實很努力。他想了一會兒說：“謝謝你對我的批評。但是我只有一個請求，我希望在你離開之前再爲公司做一件事情。或許到時你會改變決定，收回辭呈。”

John agreed. The boss asked him to go and find out anyone selling watermelon in the market. John went and returned soon. He said he had found out a man selling watermelon.

Bobby went, returned and said, boss, only one person selling watermelon. $1.2 per kg, $10 for 10kg, he has inventory of 340 melons.

John was very impressed and realized the difference between himself and Bobby. He decided not to resign but to learn from Bobby.

My dear friends, a more successful person is more observant, thinks more and explores in depth. Chances exist in the daily details. For the same matter, a more successful person sees more and farther so that he can find out an opportunity and catch it to realize his aim. If a person sees one year ahead, while another sees only tomorrow. The difference between a year and a day is 365times, how could you win?

親愛的朋友們，成功的人更善於觀察，勤于思考和孜孜探求。機遇就存在於生活的細節中。同樣的一件事，一個成功的人會看得更多更遠。有人看到一年後的情景，而你只看到明天。一年與一天的差距是365倍，你怎麼能贏呢?
