最糟糕的经历却让人有最美好的体验
Once, when I was in Sicily, I was swindled by a stranger for a hundred dollars. At first I was devastated. I spent the entire next day thinking about what I should have done to keep my money, and what I would do if I had it. But what I learned from this about humanity, about the nature of good and evil within people, and how circumstances force them to do bad things showed me a lot about myself and how to cope with misfortune.
有一次我在西西里岛,被一个陌生人骗走了一百美元。起初我非常震惊,第二天,我一整天都在想如果不让骗子成功得逞的话,我应该怎么做。但从这件事情上,我学到的关于人性、关于人们的性本善和性本恶、关于环境迫使人去做坏事,都让我对自己审视良多,已经让我知道了如何应对不幸。
