One day while sitting in the boat fishing, I noticed a field mouse on the river bank. He ran out of his
21 , ran around a bit and then ran back. I thought of the
22 of this mouse. His life is spent running around,
23 , following his nose. He runs here, runs there, turns in circles, but never really sees much beyond his
24 . He is trying to
25 his way to successful living, which is finding a little
26 , so that he can carry on for the rest of his life, frightened.
A few minutes later I looked up and noticed an osprey (鱼鹰)
27 high in the sky. This keen-eyed hunter with a
28 view of the river was simply waiting for the best time to catch his food. The
29 creature flew up toward a nest at the top of one of the tallest trees.
It is the osprey not the field mouse that
30 our human potential (潜能). I don’t know about you, but it is
31 for me to decide which creature I want to learn from. I want to
32, to see the big picture, to climb higher, go farther, dive deeper, and
33 more. I want my soul enlarged and my heart inspired. I want to
34 running about following my nose and instead I want to find new strength, fresh
35 , clear vision and courage. I want to be more like the osprey and less like the field mouse, for to live like the field mouse is to ruin my potential.
