胡蘿卜、雞蛋還是咖啡豆
佚名
女兒向父親抱怨她的生活，她覺得凡事都很艱難，不知該怎樣面對(duì)，想放棄。她厭倦了不斷的抗?fàn)幒蛫^斗，好像一個(gè)問(wèn)題剛解決，另一個(gè)有出現(xiàn)了。
她的父親是名廚師，他把她帶進(jìn)了廚房，在三個(gè)壺里分別裝了水，然后放到火上燒。很快，壺里的水開了。他一句話也沒說(shuō)，往第一個(gè)壺里放了些胡蘿卜，往第二個(gè)壺里放了雞蛋，在最后一個(gè)里放了些磨碎的咖啡豆，讓他們煮沸。
女兒撅著嘴，不耐煩得等著，對(duì)父親的行為感到很納悶。大約二十分鐘后，父親關(guān)了火爐，把胡蘿卜倒進(jìn)一個(gè)碗里。又把雞蛋拿出來(lái)放進(jìn)另一個(gè)碗里，接著把咖啡倒進(jìn)一個(gè)杯子里，然后轉(zhuǎn)過(guò)頭來(lái)，對(duì)她說(shuō)，“親愛的，你看見了什么？”
“胡蘿卜、雞蛋和咖啡。”她答道。
父親讓她去摸胡蘿卜，她覺得它們變?nèi)彳浟?。然后，他又讓她去把雞蛋敲破、把殼剝掉后，她看到了一個(gè)熟雞蛋。最后，父親要她喝咖啡。鏟倒芳香四溢的咖啡，她笑了。
“這是什么意思，父親/?"她謙恭的問(wèn)道。
父親解釋說(shuō)，這三洋東西面臨著同樣的逆境-----煮沸的水。但它們的反映卻各不相同。胡蘿卜本是強(qiáng)硬，堅(jiān)固而不甘示弱的，但受到開水的影響后，它變得柔軟而脆弱。雞蛋本來(lái)易碎，薄薄的外殼保護(hù)著內(nèi)部的液體。但是開水煮過(guò)以后，它的內(nèi)部卻變得堅(jiān)硬。不過(guò)，最獨(dú)特的卻是磨碎的咖啡豆，經(jīng)過(guò)沸騰的水后，它們卻改變了水。“哪一個(gè)是你呢？”他問(wèn)女兒。當(dāng)不幸降臨到你頭上時(shí)，你該如何應(yīng)對(duì)呢？ 你是胡蘿卜、雞蛋，還是咖啡豆？
