摘要
一个女孩向父亲抱怨她的生活，她觉得凡事都很艰难，不知该怎样挺过去，想放弃努力。她厌倦了不断地抗争和奋斗。她的父亲是个厨师，把她带到厨房里。他在三个壶里分别装满了水，然后分别放到高温的火上。很快，壶里的水沸腾了。他往第一个壶里放了些胡萝卜，第二个壶里放了几个鸡蛋，在最后一个壶里放了些磨碎的咖啡豆。然后，他一句话也没说，等着水再次沸腾。
A daughter complained to her father about her life and things were so hard for her. She did not know how she was going to make it and want to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. Her father, a cook, took her to the kitchen. He filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Soon the pots came to a boil. In one he placed carrots, in the second he placed eggs, and in the last he placed ground coffee beans. He let them sit and boil, without saying a word.
