一天，一個漁夫躺在沙灘上，旁邊架著魚竿，魚線甩在藍(lán)色的大海里，隨著閃閃發(fā)光的海浪不停地涌動。他愜意地享受午后陽光，等著魚兒咬鉤。 這時一位商人沿著沙灘走了過來，他到海邊來舒緩一下他緊張的工作壓力。商人看到了躺在沙灘上的漁夫，很想知道為什么漁夫不努力養(yǎng)家糊口，而是在這里釣魚。 “你這樣可掉不到幾條魚?！鄙倘藢O夫說?！澳銘?yīng)該認(rèn)真點，而不是躺在沙灘上休息?！?漁民抬頭看了看商人，笑著回答：“那樣做我能得到什么回報啊？” “那樣你會有錢買個大的漁網(wǎng)，捕到更多的魚。”商人回答他。

漁夫再次問道：“這么做我會得到什么呢？”商人氣得面紅耳赤，沖漁夫喊道：“你怎么就不明白？你可以變得非常富有，再也不用賺錢工作了！你的后半生都可以坐在沙灘上看日落，不用在乎周圍的世界！”漁夫依舊微笑著，抬頭看著商人說道：“那你說我現(xiàn)在在干什么？不就是坐在沙灘上看日落嗎？”O(jiān)nceagainthefisherma4
