The story of a candle and a lamp
In one night, the master put a desk lamp is opened, a small desk lamp lit up the whole room,
also lit up the oneself, suddenly, he saw a corner on the edge of the candle,
he puffed himself up for the candle said,
“you see you, all day stay in the corner, unkempt, was dusty, look how beautiful,
I am sitting in the master’s table, many scenery.
” The candle slowly lifted its head and said quietly,”yes, I admit that you are indeed more beautiful and brighter than I am. Effect is the same,
but we are bringing light to master, but our each other a condition is different, no matter in any case,
I can bring light to the master, and you?
It only shines when it’s energized.”
“Hum! I don’t believe it! Let’s see! The lamp is unconvinced. Another night came, and the wind was blowing out of the window,
and the night seemed to come faster. The little lamp began to boast again,
and suddenly the wind blew out of the wire, and the master’s house became dark,
and his little son began to cry. At this time, the host needs the light! .
The master quickly picked up the electricity and found the candle in the corner.
The little candle was lit and lit up the whole room.
The child no longer cried and laughed and played the game with his mother.
Small candle when looking at master most in need of light appeared in relative obscurity,
but he is not proud, at this time,
the desk lamp began to reflect on their, before he was to say I’m sorry the candle,
it’s a little regret. At that time, little candles seemed to see the desk lamp of the mind,
to longly say to the lamp: “everyone has their own advantages and disadvantages,
we do not only see their own advantages, who ignores the other people’s strengths is useful, who is more useful,
needn’t we argue, the fact will tell us! Never laugh at others for your own merits.
The lamp listened and felt a fever in his face, and bowed his head in shame, saying,
“I am sorry, candle, I understand; I should not have laughed at you.”
Candle went on to say: “my life is limited, each lit my life was cut short time, so I love myself,
very respect other people, I want to use limited life infinite contribution to the host.” The little body of the candle slowly became shorter.
At the end of the candle’s life,
the lamp said to the candle, “you can rest assured that I will correct my shortcomings and make a greater contribution to the master.”
The candle nodded, and in the end he winked at the lamp and left the beautiful world forever.
After that, I also understand that you should not use your own eyes to laugh at others,
should use the big eyes to learn the advantage of others.
