Problems
Think a minute!
"Don't warry if you have problems!"That is eay to say until you are in the midst of a really big one.But the only people I am aware of who don't have troubles are gatherd in little neighbours.Most comunities have at least one,we call them cemeteris.
If you are breathing,you have difficulties,it's the way of life.And believe it or not,most of your problems may actually be good for you!
Maybe you have seen the Great Barrier Reef,stretching some 1800 miles from New Guinea to Australia.On one tour,the guide was asked a question,"I notice that the lagoon side of the reef looks pale and lifeless,while the ocean side is colorful and lively,"a traveler observed,"Why is this?"
The guide gave a interesting answer,"The coral around the lagoon side is in the still water,with no challenge for its survival,it dies early.The coral on the ocean side is constantly tested by storms,as it is tested,it grows strong,and it reproduces."Then he added this telling note,"That's the way it is with every living organism."
Challenged and tested,we come alive!Physical demands cause us to grow stronger,Emotional stress produce tough-mindedness,Spiritual testing bring in strength of character.
So you have problems?No problem!Just tell yourself,"There I grow again!"
请想一分钟!
“遇到问题不要着急!”如果没有陷入真正的麻烦之中,这句话说起来很容易.但我知道的那些没有麻烦的人都集中再一个小圈子里,大多数社区至少有一个这样的圈子,我们称之为公墓。
只要你在呼吸,你就会遇到困难,生活就是这样。大多数麻烦可能确实对你有利,信不信由你!
也许你见过大堡礁,从新几内亚绵延1800英里大澳大利亚。一次旅行中,有人问了导游一个问题。“我注意到礁石朝向礁湖的一面毫无生机,而朝向大海的一面却多姿多彩,”一名游客问,“这是为什么呢?”
导游的回答却很有意思。“朝礁湖那面的珊瑚生长在死水里,没有生存的挑战, 早早就死掉了。朝大海那面的珊瑚不断面临暴风雨的考验,由于受到挑战,它变得强壮,不断繁衍。”然后他又令人信服的加上一句:“每个生命都是如此。”
如果我们接受挑战与考验,我们就会生机勃勃!体格上的要求使我们更加强壮,感情上的压力使我们坚韧豁达, 精神上的考验使我们拥有人格魅力。
所以,你遇到难题了吗?没有什么难题,只需告诉自己:“我又成长了!”
