The Wisdom of One Word

Isn't it amazing how one person, sharing one idea, at the right time and place can change the course of your life's history? This is certainly what happened in my life. When I was 14, I was hitchhiking from Houston, Texas, through El Paso on my way to California. I was following my dream, journeying with the sun. I was a high school dropout with learning disabilities and was set on surfing the biggest waves in the world, first in California and then in Hawaii, where I would later live.

Upon reaching downtown El Paso, I met an old man, a bum, on the street corner. He saw me walking, stopped me and questioned me as I passed by. He asked me if I was running away from home, I suppose because I looked so young. I told him, "Not exactly, sir, "since my father had given me a ride to the freeway in Houston and given me his blessings while saying, "It is important to follow your dream and what is in your heart, Son."

After conversing for a few minutes, the friendly bum told me to follow him. He told me that he had something grand to show me and share with me. We walked a couple of blocks until we came upon the downtown El Paso Public Library.

The bum first led me to a table and asked me to sit down and wait for a moment while he looked for something special amongst the shelves. A few moments later, he returned with a couple of old books under his arms and set them on the table. He then sat down beside me and spoke. He started with a few statements that were very special and that changed my life. He said, "There are two things that I want to teach you, young man, and they are these:

"Number one is to never judge a book by its cover, for a cover can fool you." He followed with, "I'll bet you think I'm a bum, don't you, young man? "

I said, "Well, uh, yes, I guess so, sir."

"Well, young man, I've got a little surprise for you. I am one of the wealthiest men in the world. I originally come from the Northeast and have all the things that money can buy. But a year ago, my wife passed away, and since then I have been deeply reflecting upon life. I realized there were certain things I had not yet experienced in my life, one of which was what it would be like to live like a bum on the streets. I made a commitment to myself to do exactly that for one year. For the past year, I have been going from city to city doing just that. So, you see, don't ever judge a book by its cover, for a cover can fool you."

"Number two is to learn how to read, my boy. For there is only one thing that people can't take away from you, and that is your wisdom." At that moment, he reached forward, grabbed my right hand in his and put them upon the books he'd pulled from the shelves. They were the writings of Plato and Aristotle-immortal classics from ancient times.

The bum then led me back on the streets near where we first met. His parting request was for me to never forget what he taught me.

I haven't forgotten.

译文

改变一生的邂逅

假如某个人在适当的时间和地点，仅因一句话而改变了你的人生历程，你是不是觉得不可思议？然而这样的事实就发生在我的身上。在14岁那年，我从得克萨斯州的休斯顿出发，途经厄尔巴索市前往加利福尼亚州。我日出即行，日落即息，痴痴地追求自己的梦想。我原本就读于高中，可能天生不是块读书的料，只好中途辍学。随即我决心去世界上最大的海浪上去冲浪，先准备去加利福尼亚，然后是夏威夷——我日后想定居的地方。

刚到厄尔巴索市，我就遇到了一位老头，他是个街头流浪汉。当我从他身边走过时，他拦住了我，并向我发问。他问我是不是从家里偷跑出来的。我猜想他一定是看我年纪太小才这样问。我告诉他：“并不是这样的，先生。”事实上是父亲开车把我送上休斯顿高速公路上的，他送上祝福，并嘱咐我道：“儿子，追随你的梦想和心中的憧憬非常重要。”

闲聊几分钟后，这个和蔼可亲的老流浪汉要我跟他走。他说他有一样很重要的东西要给我看，并要与我分享。我们走过了几个街区，最后来到了厄尔巴索市的公立图书馆。

老流浪汉先把我领到一张桌子前，要我坐下稍等片刻，然后就去那些书架中找寻那个特别重要的东西去了。不一会儿，他回来了，腋下夹着几本旧书，他把书放到桌上，并在我身边坐下，然后打开了话匣子。他一开始就出语不凡，话语意味深长，改变了我一生的命运。他说：“年轻人，我有两件事想教给你：其一，不要由一本书的封面来判断这本书的好坏，因为封面会蒙蔽你。”然后，他接着说：“我猜你一定认为我是个老流浪汉，是不是，小伙子？”

“嗯，是的，先生，我的确是这样认为的。”我回答道。

“嗯，小伙子，我要给你一个小小的惊喜：我是世界上最富有的人之一。我来自美国东北部，凡金钱能买到的东西我都有。但是一年前，我妻子去世了，自此以后，我开始深深反思人生的意义。我意识到生命中有些事我还未曾体味过，其中一项就是做一个沿街乞讨的流浪汉。于是，我就做出承诺一定要像流浪汉一样生活一年。就这样在过去的一年里，我过着流浪的生活，从一个城市流浪到另一个城市。所以，你看，千万不要由封面来判断一本书的优劣，因为封面会愚弄你。”

“第二，要学会如何读书，我的孩子。因为世界上只有一种东西别人无法从你身上取走，那就是智慧。”说到这，他俯身向我，用手抓住我的右手，并把两只手都放在他从书架中找到的书上。那是柏拉图和亚里士多德的流传几千年的不朽之作。

然后这个老流浪汉又把我领回我们初次见面的街角附近。临别时，他要求我永远不要忘记他教导我的话。

我没有忘记。
