英语经典哲理故事篇(一)
I was painfully shy as a child. In high school I would avoid anticipating in class discussions. I was too afraid to talk to anyone but my closest friends. I would think about being less shy.wanting the courage not only to ask a girl out, but to speak up in class and say what I was thinking. Yet ,it never happened. Fears embodied themselves in such self -conscious questions as, "What will other people think?""What if she says no?"I felt a dark presence in my mind holding me back.
The shyness continued into college. One day the question occurred to me :Is life shy?
The thought startled me!Think of the leaves bursting out in the springtime ,the bird singing at dawn, the sheer number of different forms of life,all expressing the wideness and scope of divine Life. There's nothing shy about it.This Life is everywhere and attention-grabbing.So, if my creator isn't shy about all the life that needs expressing.I don't need to be either.
I realized that if I want to overcome fear and shyness, I would have to put this law of life into practice . Shyness, fear, and loneliness were hindering me from living my life as Life, God wanted me to live it .I had to refuse to let fear and shyness control me. Instedd,I deceded to live how life saw me
One example:I wrote a note to a girl ,asking her out on a date. Even as I was writing it ,the fears of rejection and unworthiness came to me.This time however, instead of shrinking back and hiding from the fear, I put the note in the campus mail in spite of myself. I thought ,whether she says yes or no.it's still right for me not to be shy,Ican live with the confidence set from the source of my life. The girl saw me in class the next day and told me that she would love to go out with me. I shouldn't have been so surprised.
Bit by bit,I was proving that a limited view of myself no longer han control over me. After college, I worked as a newspaper reporter ,earned an advanced degree in theater ,became a published writer(a lifelong dream),met a special woman whom I married,and even got a job teaching at a major uneversity.

The Eyes of Love
A grandmother and a little girl whose face was sprinkled with bright red freckles spent the day at the zoo.
The children were waiting in line to get their cheeks painted by a local artist who was decorating them with tiger paws.
"You‘ve got so many freckles, there‘s no place to paint!" a boy in the line cried.
Embarrassed, the little girl dropped her head. Her grandmother knelt down next to her. "I love your freckles," she said.
"Not me," the girl replied.
"Well, when I was a little girl I always wanted freckles" she said, tracing her finger across the child‘s cheek. "Freckles are beautiful!"
The girl looked up. "Really?" "Of course," said the grandmother. "Why, just name me one thing that‘s prettier than freckles."
The little girl peered into the old woman‘s smiling face. "Wrinkles," she answered softly.

The Fence
There was a little boy with a bad temper. His father gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper, to hammer a nail in the back fence. The first day the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Then it gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence. Finally the day came when the boy didn‘t lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and the father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold his temper. The days passed and the young boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone. The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence. He said, "You have done well, my son, but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they leave a scar just like this one. You can put a knife in a man and draw it out. It won‘t matter how many times you say I‘m sorry, the wound is still there. A verbal wound is as bad as a physical one. Friends are a very rare jewel, indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed. They lend an ear, they share a word of praise, and they always want to open their hearts to us.
