Look at the Sky from the Bottom of a Well
There is a frog. He lives in a well and he never goes out of the well. He thinks the sky is as big as the mouth of the well.
One day a crow comes to the well. He sees the frog and says, “Frog, let’s have a talk.” Then the frog asks, “Where are you from?” “I fly from the sky,” the crow says. The frog feels surprised and says, “The sky is only as big as the mouth of the well. How do you fly from the sky?”
The crow says, “The sky is very big. You always stay in the well, so you don’t know the world is big.”
The frog says, “I don’t believe.” But the crow says, “You can come out and have a look by yourself.”
So the frog comes out from the well. He is very surprised. How big the world is!
坐井观天 有一只青蛙住在井底,他从来没有去过井外面。他以为天空就和井口一样大。
一天, 一只乌鸦飞到井边,看见青蛙,就对它说:“青蛙,咱们聊聊吧。”青蛙就问他:“你从哪里来?”“我从天上上来。青蛙惊讶了,就说:“天空就只有这井口这么大,你怎么会从天上飞老呢?”
乌鸦说:“天空很大。只不过你一直呆在井里,所有不知道世界很大。”青蛙说:“我不相信。”乌鸦说:“你可以出来,自己看看嘛。”
于是青蛙来到井外。他十分惊讶,原来世界这么大!
太急燥了,要平心静气
