Once, there lived a wise old man who had a special talent for making beautiful pottery (陶器). A young man was surprised how he was able to create such wonderful artworks. So, one day, he went to visit the old man. The old man smiled and said, “It is all about perspective (视角).”
The young man was lost and asked the old man to explain. The old man took a piece of clay and began to make it into a beautiful vase (花瓶). He explained, “Life is like clay, and we are the potters. We have the power to shape our own lives. ”
“But,” the young man said, “what if life throws different challenges at us?”
The old man replied, “It is all about how you look at it. Challenges are chances to grow and learn. If you see them as obstacles (障碍), then they will become problems. But if you see them as challenges that can be got over, you will find a way to deal with them. ”
