One day,a man telephoned Norman Vincent Peale.He was in great depression (沮丧,意气消沉)and told Morman that he had nothing left to live for.Peale invited the man to his office.“Everything is gone,and I'm hopeless,”the mall told him.”I'm living in the deepest darkness.In fact,I've lost heart for living altogether.’’
Norman Vincent Peale smiled sympathetically(同情地).”Let’s take a look at your situation,”he said calmly.On a piece of paper he drew a straight line down the middle.He suggested that they list on the left side the things the man had lost,and on the right, the things that had been left.”You won't need that column(栏;列)on the right side,”said the man sadly.”I have nothing left.”
Peale asked,”When did your wife leave you?”
”What do you mean? She hasn't left me.My wire loves me!”
”That's great said Peale enthusiastically(热情地).”Then that will be number one in the right-hand column:Wife hasn't left.Now, when were your children put into prison?”
”That's a silly question.My children aren't in prison!”
”Good! That's number two in the right-hand column:Children not in prison.”said Peale,writing it down.
After a few more questions in the same column,the man finally got the point and smiled in spite of himself(不由自主地).”Funny,how things change when you think of them that way.”he said.
