一位旅行者在一片大沙漠中,计划用一个月的时间穿越它。又过去了二十天,旅程进行得很顺利。“很快我就能走出这片沙漠了,”他想。
但沙漠对旅行者从来都不友好。没过多久,一场强烈的沙尘暴就来了。他立刻用衣服盖住头,匍匐在沙地上。大约十分钟后,沙尘暴停了。他抖了抖衣服,站了起来。就在那一刻,他发现自己陷入了绝望的境地。装着食物和水的背包随着风暴消失了。
众所周知,没有食物和水似乎是不可能走出沙漠的。幸运的是,他还剩下一个梨。他紧紧地把它握在手里。“还不算太糟。我至少还有一个梨。我相信我能穿越沙漠。”他看着手中的小水果,继续往前走。
日日夜夜过得很快,但沙漠看起来仍然无边无际。旅行者知道他必须保持冷静,否则他会失去最后的希望。每次他快要失去希望的时候,他就强迫自己看看手中的梨。
一个小梨成了他生存的希望。三天后,他一看到不远处的一个村庄,就兴奋地笑了起来。他突然充满活力地跳起来,疯狂地向村庄挥舞着手臂。他感到完全放松了——这个“梨”让他重获新生。现在,他用尽最后的力气朝村庄走去。
保持希望是成功的最佳武器。如果你去寻找,你总会找到一个“梨”来帮助你摆脱困境。
