The Little Things

The Little Things A young fish loved collecting pebbles-those little shiny stones at the bottom of the ocean. He spent all of his time looking for them. One day, an old fish said to him, " You cannot spend your entire day looking for little pebbles. There is a whole world out there for you to learn about! " But the young fish didn't listen. Early one morning, while the other fish were still sleeping, the young fish went for a swim. He came upon a pile of pebbles. Excited about his fnd, he started bringing the pebbles back to his home, one by one.

小事情 一条小鱼喜欢收集鹅卵石——那些小小的海底闪闪发光的石头。他花了所有的时间寻找他们。 一天，一条老鱼对他说。“你不可能一整天都在找小鹅卵石。外面还有整个世界等着你去了解!” 但是小鱼不听。一天清晨，当其他的鱼还在睡觉时，这条小鱼去游泳了。他碰到了一堆鹅卵石。 他对自己的发现很兴奋，开始把鹅卵石一块一块地带回自己的家。

Just as he was making his last trip, he saw a shadow. It was a big, ugly lion fish—the scariest fish in the sea. Suddenly, the lion fish started chasing the young fish. Very quickly, the young fish realized that the only way he could escape was to drop the pebble, and swim away as fast as he could. From then on, he always remembered what the wise fish had told him: Too many little things may make you lose sight of the big picture.

就在他做最后一次旅行时，他看到了一个影子。这是一条又大又丑的狮子鱼——海里最可怕的鱼。 突然，狮子鱼开始追逐幼鱼。很快，小鱼意识到他唯一能逃脱的办法就是把石子扔下去，然后以最快的速度游开。 从那以后，他一直记着那条聪明的鱼告诉他的话:小事太多会让你看不见大局。
