When the great library of Alexandria burned, the story goes, one book was saved. But it was not a
valuable book, and a poor man got it.
The book wasn't very interesting,
It was a thin strip of vellum(
but between its pages there was something very interesting indeed.
羊皮纸)on which was written the secret of the
The touchstone was a small pebble(鹅卵石)that could turn any common metal into pure gold.
The writing explained that it was lying among thousands and thousands of other pebbles that looked
exactly like it. But the secret was this. The real stone would feel warn, while ordinary pebbles are
cold.
So the man sold his house, bought a tent, camped on the seashore, and began testing pebbles. He knew
that if he picked up normal pebbles and threw them down again because they were cold, he might pick up
the same pebbles hundreds of times. So, when he felt one that was cold, he threw it into the sea. He
spent a whole day doing this but none of them was the touchstone. Yet he went on and on this way. Pick
up a pebble. Cold—throw it into sea. Pick up another. Throw it into the sea. The days stretched into
months and the months into years.
One day, however, about midafternoon, he picked up a pebble and it was warm. He threw it into the
sea before he realized what he had done. He was used to throwing each pebble into the sea as soon as
he picked it up. So when the one he wanted came along, he still threw it away.
So it is with opportunity(机会). Unless we are vigilant, it's easy to fail to realize an opportunity
when it is in hand and it's just as easy to throw it away.
