双语：成功并非遥不可及

 　　Once upon a time, there is a Health and leprosy

　　patient, the disease nearly 40 years, has been lying on the roadside, he said, referring to such people to have the magic of the pool edge. But he lay there nearly 40 years. Still not to the pool half goal。从前，有个生麻疯病的病人，病了近40年，一直躺在路旁，等人把他指到有神奇力量的水池边。但是他躺在那儿近40年。仍然没有往水池目标迈进半步。

　　One day, God met him and asked: "Sir, you have to not be healing, the lifting of the disease?"有一天，天神碰见了他，问道：“先生，你要不要被医治，解除病魔？”

　　Leprosy patients that said: "Of course! Sinister¹ but good people, they are after nothing but themselves, will not help me."那麻疯病人说：“当然要！可是人心好险恶，他们只顾自己，绝不会帮我。”

　　Hearing God, again, he said: "Would you like to be the treatment?"天神听后，再问他说：“你要不要被医治？”

　　"We should, of course, to you! But waiting for me to climb over the past, the water dried up."“要，当然要啦！但是等我爬过去时，水都干涸了。”

　　God listened to the leprosy patients, then after a little angry, ask him once: "You should not be healing in the end?"天神听了那麻疯病人的话后，有点生气，再问他一次：“你到底要不要被医治？”

　　He said: "To!"他说：“要！”

　　God replied: "Well, you now stand up on their side to come to the pool, do not always find some reason can not be completed for their own defense²."天神回答说：“好，那你现在就站起来自己走到那水池边去，不要老是找一些不能完成的理由为自己辩解。”

　　Upon hearing this, and that leprosy patients are deeply ashamed

　　and immediately stood up and went to the water edge, containing the heart of God with his hands a few water to drink. Twinkling of an eye, his struggle for nearly 40 years of leprosy even better! 听后，那麻疯病人深感羞愧，立即站起身来，走向池水边去，用手心盛着神水喝了几口。刹那间，他那纠缠了近40年的麻疯病竟然好了！
