我沒郵箱 I don't have an E-mail
A Jobless man applied for the position of 'office boy' at Microsoft. The HR manager interviewed him then watched him cleaning the floor as a test.
一個失業的人去微軟申請辦公室文員的職位，人事經理面試他，並且看着他打掃地板，作爲測試。
"You are employed" he said, " Give me your e-mail address and I'll send you the application to fill in, as well as date when you may start."
“你被錄用了。”人事經理說：“給我你的郵箱地址，我會把申請表發給你填，發給你的同時也意味着你開始上班。”
The man replied :"But I don't have a computer, neither an email."
這個人回答說：“但我既沒有電腦，也沒有郵箱。”
"I'm sorry", said the HR manager:" If you don't have an email, that means you do not exist. And who doesn't exist, cannot have the job.'"
“我很抱歉”，人事經理說：“如果你沒有郵箱，那就意味着你不能生存，一個不能生存的人當然不能有工作。”
The man left with no hope at all. He didn't know what to do, with only ten dollars in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy a 10Kg tomato crate.
這個人不抱希望的離開了，他不知道要做什麼，口袋裏只有10美元，他決定去超市買了10公斤西紅柿。
He then sold the tomatoes in a door to door round. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital. He repeated the operation three times, and returned home with sixty dollars.
接着他在附近門挨着門賣西紅柿，不到兩小時，他成功的將他的資金翻了一倍，他又做了3個小時，到回家時身上已經有60塊錢了。
The man realized that he can survive by this way, and started to go everyday earlier, and return late. Thus, his money doubled or tripled everyday.
這個人認識到他可以用這種方式生存，以後他每天起的很早，回家的很晚，因此，他的錢每天都翻兩三倍。
Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck, and then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles.
很短的時間裏，他買了個手推車，然後卡車，接着他有了自己的運輸車隊。
5 years later, the man is one of the biggest food retailers in the US.
5年以後，他成了美國最大的食品零售商.......
He started to plan his family's future, and decided to have a life insurance.
他開始計劃他家庭的未來，就決定買人身保險。
He called an insurance broker, and chose a protection plan.
他打電話給保險經濟人，然後選了一個保險。
When the conversation was concluded the broker asked him his email. The man replied:"I don't have an email.'" The broker answered curiously:"You don't have an email, and yet have succeeded to build an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an e mail?!!" The man thought for a while and replied:"'Yes, I'd be an office boy at Microsoft!"
當談話結束後保險經濟人問他的郵箱地址，他說：“我沒有郵箱。”保險經濟人很吃驚的說：“你沒有郵箱都可以成功的建立一個帝國，你能想象如果你有郵箱的話會怎麼樣嗎?”這個人想了一下然後回答：“是的，我會成爲微軟的辦公室文員。”

沒有過不去的坎兒 There Aare no Such Setbacks That we Could not Overcome
Our tolerating ability is indeed way beyond our imagination. But not until the very critical moment will we realize our potential tolerating ability.
人的承受能力，其實遠遠超出我們的想象。但是不到關鍵時刻，我們很少能夠意識自己的潛力。
There was a woman in the countryside who got married at the age of 18 and had to escape with her two daughters and a son wherever she could at the age of 26 due to the Japanese army’s invasion. Many people in the village at that time could not bear the suffering of being a fugitive and wanted to commit suicide. After she knew about it, she would come to those people and soothed them by saying, “Don’t do that silly thing. There are no such setbacks that we could not overcome. The Japanese armies are bound to be foiled one day!”
有一位農村婦女，18歲結婚，26歲時日本人侵略中國，在農村進行大掃蕩，她不得不經常帶着兩個女兒一個兒子東躲西藏。村裏很多人受不了這種暗無天日的折磨，想到了自盡，她得知後就會去勸：“別這樣啊，沒有過不去的坎，日本鬼子不會總這麼猖狂的。”
Finally she insisted until the day when all the Japanese armies were kicked out of China. Nonetheless, her son died of disease without sufficient medicine and nutrition in those days of hardships. Her husband, after knowing the death of his son, lay in bed for two days without eating and drinking anything. She teared to her husband and said, “We have a tough destiny, but however tough our lives will be, we should also persist. Though our son has passed away, we can have another. There are no such setbacks that we could not overcome.”
她終於熬到了把鬼子趕出中國的那一天，可是她的兒子卻在那炮火連天的歲月裏，由於缺醫少藥，又極度缺乏營養，因病夭折了。丈夫不吃不喝在牀上躺了兩天兩夜，她流着淚對丈夫說：“咱們的命苦啊，不過再苦咱也得過啊，兒子沒了，咱再生一個，人生沒有過不去的坎。”
After giving birth to the second son, her husband died of edema, which almost blew her away. But eventually, she recovered and cuddled the three young children, saying, “My sweet hearts, don’t feel scared. You still have me, your dear mum!”
剛剛生了兒子，丈夫因患水腫病離開了人世。在這個打擊下，她很長時間都沒回過神來，但最後還是挺過來了，她把三個未成年的孩子攬到自己懷裏，說：“娘還在呢，有娘在，你們就別怕。”
It took her painstaking efforts to raise her children up and the life of her family was getting better and better. Two daughters were married and so was his son finally. She said to everyone she met, “Look! What I said is absolutely right. There are no such setbacks that we could not overcome! My life is so happy now!” She was aging gradually and could not do the farm work any more. So she stayed at home and did some stitching work.
她含辛茹苦地把孩子一個個拉扯大了，生活也慢慢好轉起來。兩個女兒嫁了人，兒子也結了婚。她逢人便樂呵呵地說：“我說吧，沒有過不去的坎，現在生活多好啊。”她年紀大了，不能下地幹活，就在家納鞋底，做衣服，縫縫補補。
Nevertheless, the Heaven seemed to show no affection to her who had undergone a rough life. She got her leg broken accidentally when she was nursing her grandson. Due to her old age that posed a great risk to her operation, she did not receive operation and had to lie in bed all day long. Her children all cried heavily, while she merely said, “Why do you cry? I am still living.”
可是，上蒼似乎並不眷顧這位一生坎坷的婦女，她在照看孫子時不小心摔斷了腿，由於年紀太大做手術危險，就一直沒有做手術，她每天只能躺在牀上。兒女們都哭了，她卻說：“哭什麼，我還活着呢。”
Even though she could not rise from bed, she did not complain about anything and anybody. Instead, she sat on the bed and did some stitching work. She had learnt scarves-weaving, broidery, crafts-making, etc. All her neighbors spoke highly of her skills and came to learn from her.
即便下不了牀，她也沒有怨天尤人，而是坐在牀上做針線活。她會織圍巾，會繡花，會編手工藝品，左鄰右舍的人都誇她手藝好，還來跟她學藝。
She lived until 86. Before she went to Heaven, she said to her children, “You all should live to your best. There are no such setbacks that we could not overcome!”
她活到86歲，臨終前，她對自己兒女們說：“都要好好過啊，沒有過不去的坎。”
We will only get to realize our own iron will and strong tolerating ability after getting stricken heavily. Therefore, no matter what you are suffering from now, do not merely complain about the unfairness of our destiny and maintain low-spirited all the time. There are no such setbacks that we could not overcome. Only those who have no confidence and courage to overcome setbacks will be defeated at last!
人總是在遭遇一次重創之後，纔會幡然醒悟，重新認識自己的堅強和堅忍。所以，無論你正在遭遇什麼磨難，都不要一味抱怨上蒼不公平，甚至從此一蹶不振。人生沒有過不去的坎，只有過不去的人。
