原文: “小黑点”

    老师和学生玩一个游戏,他拿起一张白纸,纸上有一个圆形小黑点,老师问大家看到了什么,大家都回答“黑点”,老师语重心长地说“这就是我们看人的角度,我手里拿着的明明是张白纸,它只不过有一个小黑点,你们便忽略了大部分的白,只看到那点黑。”是啊,生活中我们往往会如此,我们总发现别人的缺点,却忽视了他们的优点,其实不仅对人是如此,对待那些令人不快的事不也是同理吗?很多时候我们只记住不好的一面,往往忘记了除了这个小黑点还有一大片的白存在。曾经一个朋友对我说要有平常心,总不明白怎样算是平常心,现在似乎有点领悟了……

译文: small black spot

Teacher and students play a game, he takes up a white paper with a small black Circular spot on it . The teacher asks what you see, they all answer "black spot".The teacher says in earnest, "this is our perspective, I am obviously carrying a piece of White paper. But You only see that black spot overlooking the most of the white."

we often tend to be so in life. We always find that other people's shortcomings ignoring their merits. In fact, this is not only for people but for those unpleasant tings. we only remember the bad side Very often forgetting that there is a large presence of white in addition to this. A friend once told me that we have equanimity .I don’t understand what is equanimity ,but now it seems to  understand
